Entropy, 2020 Understanding how nature drives entropy production offers novel insights regarding patient care. Whilst energy is always preserved and energy gradients irreversibly dissipate (thus producing entropy), increasing evidence suggests that they do so in the ...

Universe, 2021 Double-spiral galaxies are common in the Universe. It is known that the logarithmic double spiral is a Maximum Entropy geometry in hyperbolic (flat) spacetime that well represents an idealised spiral galaxy, with its central supermassive black hole (SMBH)

Diagnostic Pathology, 2006 Background There are many differences between healthy tissue and growing tumor tissue, including metabolic, structural and thermodynamic differences. Both structural and thermodynamic differences can be used to follow the entropy differences in cancerous

Geometrical aspects of entropy production in stochastic thermodynamics based on Wasserstein distance
Physical Review Research, 2021 We study a relationship between optimal transport theory and stochastic thermodynamics for the Fokker-Planck equation. We show that the lower bound on the entropy production is the action measured by the path length of the L^{2}-Wasserstein distance ...

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2021 To study the influence of the blade entropy production range on the efficiency of a tubular turbine under coassociated conditions, the renormalization group K–ε turbulence model was used to simulate the full flow passage of the tubular turbine based on ...

Generalization of Prigogine’s theorem for the case of full differential of entropy
MethodsX, 2018 In this paper we propose a solution to the problem associated with the presence of an incomplete differential of entropy in Prigogine's theorem on the minimum of entropy production.

Entropy Production in Exactly Solvable Systems
Entropy, 2020 The rate of entropy production by a stochastic process quantifies how far it is from thermodynamic equilibrium. Equivalently, entropy production captures the degree to which global detailed balance and time-reversal symmetry are broken.

Path-dependent entropy production [PDF]
Journal of the Korean Physical Society, 2015 A rigorous derivation of nonequilibrium entropy production via the path-integral formalism is presented. Entropy production is defined as the entropy change piled in a heat reservoir as a result of a nonequilibrium thermodynamic process. It is a central quantity by which various forms of the fluctuation theorem are obtained.

Entropy production and fluctuation theorems in a continuously monitored optical cavity at zero temperature [PDF]
Quantum, 2022 Fluctuation theorems allow one to make generalised statements about the behaviour of thermodynamic quantities in systems that are driven far from thermal equilibrium. In this article we use Crooks' fluctuation theorem to understand the entropy production

Entropy Production Via Particle Production [PDF]
, 1995 I critically examine the notion of ``irreversibility,'' and discuss in what sense it applies to the spontaneous creation of particles in external fields. The investigation reveals that particle creation in very strong fields can only be described by a non-Markovian transport theory.
