Graph theory and entropy concepts are used to retrieve and quantify information in dD-sets of points. In this approach …–Leibler's entropy as pertaining to graph edge-length distributions. This relative entropy uses the edge-length distribution of graphs …

irreversibility. The analysis developed in this paper points out that the principle of maximum of entropy generation and the least … can be related to the extremum entropy generation theorem. Irreversibility is the result of the interaction between …Is there a link between the macroscopic description of the irreversibility and microscopic behaviour of the systems …

The extremum of entropy generation is evaluated for both maximum and minimum cases using a thermodynamic approach which … the entropy generation extremum theorem is proved by the engineering approach. It follows from the proof that the entropy … evaluated within the system. The Bernoulli equation is analyzed as an example in order to evaluate the internal and external …
