Black Hole Tunneling Entropy and the Spectrum of Gravity [PDF]
, 1992 The tunneling approach for entropy generation in quantum gravity is applied to black holes. The area entropy is recovered and shown to count only a tiny fraction of the black hole degeneracy.

Entropy Generation Minimization for Energy-Efficient Desalination [PDF]
, 2018 Desalination systems can be conceptualized as power cycles, in which the useful work output is the work of separation of fresh water from saline water. In this framing, thermodynamic analysis provides powerful tools for raising energy efficiency.

Generalized Entropy Generation Expressions in Gases
Entropy, 2019 In this study, we generalize our previous methods for obtaining entropy generation in gases without the need to carry through a specific expansion method, such as the Chapman–Enskog method.
