Entropy, Volume 6, Issue 4

Boundary layer transition is a critical parameter in the design of fluid flow systems. This situation is due to the dramatic change in both entropy production and heat transfer that accompanies it. It is well recognized that many parameters affect th...

The nonextensive entropy of Tsallis can be seen as a consequence of postulates on a self-information, i.e., the constant ratio of the first derivative of a self-information per unit probability to the curvature (second variation) of it. This constanc...
