A shattered plate, broken glass, and a crumbling mountain may seem worlds apart, yet science says they follow the same hidden ...

Universal law derived by French physicist predicts fragment sizes using entropy & probability.A dropped plate, broken ...

Thermodynamic spontaneity—whether a reaction can go—can be measured by changes in either of two parameters: entropy or free energy.

Motivated by the analogy between the spacetime and the solid with inhomogeneous elasticity modulus, we present an alternative method to obtain the field equation of any diffeomorphism-invariant ...

In January I wrote a piece titled “5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know.” Lots of you weighed in with your own nominations, and there were plenty of good suggestions. So I’ve decided to do a ...

Please cite the above manuscript if you use or adapt the code in this repository or that of the associated solvers implemented in TrixiAtmo.jl in your research. Any questions regarding the content of ...

We study the entropy production in nonequilibrium systems described by a Fokker-Planck equation. We have devised an expression for the entropy flux in the stationary state. We have found that the ...

Entropy is an intrinsic property of matter and its constituents (atoms and molecules) and it has several definitions and meanings. It was first postulated by German physicist Rudolf Clausius in the ...

4. Clausius’s Entropy Equation: The law led to the development of the Clausius’s entropy equation, which is a fundamental equation in thermodynamics. Conclusion The Second Law of Thermodynamics is a ...
