Thermodynamics, Statistical Mechanics and Entropy
The proper definition of thermodynamics and the thermodynamic entropy is discussed in the light of recent developments. The postulates for thermodynamics are examined critically, and some modifications are suggested to allow for the inclusion of long-range forces (within a system), inhomogeneous systems with non-extensive entropy, and systems that can have negative temperatures. Only the thermo...
متن کاملStatistical Vibroacoustics and Entropy Concept
Statistical vibroacoustics, also called statistical energy analysis (SEA) in the field of engineering, is born from the application of statistical physics concepts to the study of random vibration in mechanical and acoustical systems. This article is a discussion on the thermodynamic foundation for that approach with particular emphasis devoted to the meaning of entropy, a concept missing in SE...
متن کاملThe Concept of Irreversibility in Statistical Mechanics
The interaction between concepts of irreversibility and the development of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics is discussed with particular reference to certain 'paradoxes' that retarded this development A recently evolved attitude towards the general problem of irreversibility may be considered responsible for a number of practical advances in this field. My subject is the interaction betwee...

متن کاملBlack hole entropy: statistical mechanics agrees thermodynamics
We discuss the connection between different entropies introduced for black hole. It is demonstrated on the two-dimensional example that the (quantum) thermodynamical entropy of a hole coincides (including UV-finite terms) with its statisticalmechanical entropy calculated according to ’t Hooft and regularized by Pauli-Villars.
