Entropy production and lost work for irreversible processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper we analyse in depth the Lost Work in an irreversible process (i.e. IRREV REV Lost ) W =W -W . This quantity is also called ‘degraded energy’ or ‘Energy unavailable to do work’. Usually in textbooks one can find the relation Lost U W o TDS .

Maximum Entropy Optimum Design for Product Structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Taking the product cost as goal function, a maximum entropy method is used to set up a mathematical model for mechanical structural optimization. By using MATLAB, the computing program is made. And then an example for a mechanical product is given out — a motorcycle frame optimum, this is an optimization with sizes, stresses and frequency constraints ...

A Maximum Entropy Production Evaporation – Transpiration Product for Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract. The aim of this research is to develop evaporation and transpiration products for Australia based on the maximum entropy production model (MEP). We introduce a method into the MEP algorithm of estimating the required model parameters over the entire Australia through the use of pedotransfer function, soil properties and remotely sensed soil ...

Maximum Entropy Production Principle and Morphological Selection in Hydrodynamic Systems

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
In recent decades an idea has emerged that the maximum entropy production principle can be used to select from the different regimes of development of nonequilibrium systems. According to this principle the process with maximum entropy production is most

Maximum Entropy Production Principle for Stock Returns [PDF]

open access: yes2015 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence, 2015
In our previous studies we have investigated the structural complexity of time series describing stock returns on New York's and Warsaw's stock exchanges, by employing two estimators of Shannon's entropy rate based on Lempel-Ziv and Context Tree Weighting algorithms, which were originally used for data compression.

Training Concept, Evolution Time, and the Maximum Entropy Production Principle

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
The maximum entropy production principle (MEPP) is a type of entropy optimization which demands that complex non-equilibrium systems should organize such that the rate of the entropy production is maximized. Our take on this principle is that to prove or

Ewing Sarcoma in Infants and Children Under 2 Years of Age: A French Retrospective Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ewing sarcoma, the second most common primary bone cancer in children, requires intensive treatment that may lead to significant long‐term sequelae, particularly in infants. We retrospectively analyzed data from 1621 French patients treated between 1988 and 2015 within the EW88/93/97 or EE99 trials, focusing on 17 infants diagnosed before 24 ...

Survival After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Diamond–Blackfan Anemia Syndrome: The Role of Iron Overload—A Systematic Review

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We assessed the effect of iron overload (IO) on mortality and complications following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with Diamond–Blackfan anemia syndrome (DBAS) in a systematic review of individual participant data and cohort data from observational studies.

Entropy, Closures and Subgrid Modeling

open access: yesEntropy, 2008
Maximum entropy states or statistical mechanical equilibrium solutions have played an important role in the development of a fundamental understanding of turbulence and its role in geophysical flows. In modern general circulation models of the earth’

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.
