General multifractal analysis of local entropies [PDF]
Fundamenta Mathematicae, 2000 The multifractal analysis of a dynamical system measures local characteristics like local Hausdorff dimension, local entropies, and Lyapunov exponents. Here the authors give an extensive treatment for the local entropies introduced by \textit{M. Brin} and \textit{S. Katok} [Geometric dynamics, Lect. Notes Math. 1007, 30-38 (1983; Zbl 0533.58020)].

Entropy generation of nanofluid flow in hexagonal microchannel
Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2022 A new model for entropy generation number in hexagonal microchannel is developed going from the equation proposed by Bejan. The effect of Cu, CuO, Al2O3 and TiO2 mixed with pure water inside the microchannel is evaluated via entropy generation analysis ...

Texture analysis using Renyi's generalized entropies [PDF]
Proceedings 2003 International Conference on Image Processing (Cat. No.03CH37429), 2004 In this paper, we propose a texture analysis method based on Renyi's generalized entropies. The method aims at identifying texels in regular textures by searching for the smallest window through which the minimum number of different visual patterns is observed when moving the window over a given texture.

Local entropy generation analysis [PDF]
, 1991 Second law analysis techniques have been widely used to evaluate the sources of irreversibility in components and systems of components but the evaluation of local sources of irreversibility in thermal processes has received little attention. While analytical procedures for evaluating local entropy generation have been developed, applications have been
