A challenge in materials design is that in both natural and humanmade materials, volume sometimes decreases, or increases, with increasing temperature. While there are mechanical explanations for this ...

As a measurement of a system's randomness, entropy has specific scientific meaning. Last month, we saw how entropy can be scientifically defined in terms As a measurement of a system's randomness, ...

Precise regulation of the platform capacity/voltage of electrode materials contributes to the efficient operation of ...

Entropy is the measure of the disorder in a system that occurs over a period of time with no energy put into restoring the order. Zentropy integrates entropy at multiscale levels. Credit: Elizabeth ...
