Dynamics that underlie concepts of entropy
Jochen Mau · AIP conference proceedings · 2019
Thermodynamic entropy is reconsidered from viewpoint of growth, following up on recently recovered works by G.A. Linhart (1885-1951). The main idea is to consider rate of change relative to residual “way to go”, known as an intensity function with its implicit maximum “path length”; as force of mortality, the concept is familiar from demography.
