Entropy and Mixing Entropy for Weakly Nonlinear Mechanical Vibrating Systems [PDF]
In this paper, we examine Khinchin’s entropy for two weakly nonlinear systems of oscillators. We study a system of coupled Duffing oscillators and a set of Henon−Heiles oscillators. It is shown that the general method of deriving the Khinchin&

Negative Entropy of Mixing for Vanadium-Platinum Solutions [PDF]
The phonon densities of states for pure vanadium and the solid solutions V-6.25% Ni, Pd, Pt were determined from inelastic neutron scattering measurements. The solute atoms caused a large stiffening of the phonons, resulting in large, negative vibrational entropies of mixing.

Explicit Configurational Entropy of Mixing in Molecular Dynamics Simulations. [PDF]
The entropy of mixing of a multicomponent system of particles is a simple expression of the molar fractions for the equilibrium state, but its intermediate values for transient (nonequilibrium) states can not be calculated directly from the particle coordinates so far.

A Probabilistic Description of the Configurational Entropy of Mixing
This work presents a formalism to calculate the configurational entropy of mixing based on the identification of non-interacting atomic complexes in the mixture and the calculation of their respective probabilities, instead of computing the number of ...

Effectiveness of Energy Transfer versus Mixing Entropy in Coupled Mechanical–Electrical Oscillators
Electrostatic energy harvesters convert kinetic energy into electrical energy via variable capacitors. Efforts to improve their power output are hampered by a lack of understanding of the fundamental limit for energy conversion efficiency.

Chaotic characteristics and mixing performance of pseudoplastic fluids in a stirred tank
The key for improving the mixing efficiency of pseudoplastic fluids is to enhance the chaotic degree in the flow field. The xanthan gum solution was used to study the chaotic characteristics and mixing performance in a stirred tank with the impeller of ...

Residual Entropy, the Third Law and Latent Heat
A novel thermodynamic treatment of residual entropy in crystals, involving the configurational partition function, is suggested, which is consistent with both classical and statistical thermodynamics.
