Order reduction and μ-conservation law for the non-isospectral KdV type equation a with variable-coefficients

The goal of this paper is to calculate of order reduction of the KdV typeequation and the non-isospectral KdV type equation using the μ-symmetrymethod. Moreover we obtain μ-conservation law of the non-isospectral KdVtype equation using the variational problem method.

The Second Law of Thermodynamics as a Force Law

The second law of thermodynamics states the increase of entropy, ∆S > 0, for real processes from state A to state B at constant energy from chemistry over biological life and engines to cosmic events. The connection of entropy to information, phase-space, and heat is helpful but does not immediately convince observers of the validity and basis of the second law. This gave grounds for finding a ...
