We study the convergence to equilibrium of a class of nonlinear recombination models. In analogy with Boltzmann's H-theorem from kinetic theory, and in contrast with previous analysis of these models, ...

Though a cornerstone of thermodynamics, entropy remains one of the most vexing concepts to teach budding physicists in the classroom. Physics teachers designed a hand-held model to demonstrate the ...

Bayesian model averaging (BMA) is a popular ensemble-based postprocessing approach where the weighted average of the individual members is used to generate predictive forecasts. As the BMA formulation ...

High-entropy alloys are promising advanced materials for demanding applications, but discovering useful compositions is difficult and expensive due to the vast number of possible element combinations.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6, 2023 – Though a cornerstone of thermodynamics, entropy remains one of the most vexing concepts to teach budding physicists in the classroom. As a result, many people oversimplify ...
