The Maximum Entropy Production Principle: Its Theoretical Foundations and Applications to the Earth System [PDF]
The Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) principle has been remarkably successful in producing accurate predictions for non-equilibrium states. We argue that this is because the MEP principle is an effective inference procedure that produces the best ...

Entropy production from maximum entropy principle: A unifying approach [PDF]
Entropy production is the crucial quantity characterizing irreversible phenomena and the second law of thermodynamics. Yet, a ubiquitous definition eludes consensus. Given that entropy production arises from incomplete access to information, in this Letter we use Jaynes' maximum entropy principle to establish a framework that brings together prominent ...

We challenge claims that the principle of maximum entropy production produces physical phenomenological relations between conjugate currents and forces, even beyond the linear regime, and that currents in networks arrange themselves to maximize entropy ...

Enzyme kinetics and the maximum entropy production principle [PDF]
A general proof is derived that entropy production can be maximized with respect to rate constants in any enzymatic transition. This result is used to test the assumption that biological evolution of enzyme is accompanied with an increase of entropy production in its internal transitions and that such increase can serve to quantify the progress of ...

External Entropy Production and Human Evolution Toward Multi-Body Life [PDF]
Ancient human beings started “external entropy production” in a late stage of evolution, in addition to the internal entropy production by which energy was dissipated within the body of life, as previously described consistently with the birth of life by

Maximum Entropy Production Principle and Morphological Selection in Hydrodynamic Systems
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

Life and Evolution in Terms of Maximum Entropy Production Principle
Maximum entropy production principle (MEPP) has been formulated in the mid-twentieth century, and today it has acquired the status of an important principle of science, which is extremely effective in considering various non-equilibrium problems. In this study, for the first time, definition of life is based on an easily measurable physical quantity ...

The Entropy of the Universe and the Maximum Entropy Production Principle [PDF]
We show that (1) an error invalidates the derivation (Dewar 2005 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 38 L371) of the maximum entropy production (MaxEP) principle for systems far from equilibrium, for which the constitutive relations are nonlinear; and (2) the claim (Dewar 2003 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen.
