in this paper, second law analysis for calculations of the entropy generation due to the flow andheat transfer of water-al2o3 and ethylene glycol-al2o3 nanofluids inside annuli is presented. thephysical properties of the nanofluids are calculated using empirical correlations. constant heatfluxes at inner surface of the annuli are considered and fully developed condition for fluid flowand heat t...

a review of damages caused by landslide shows the need for studying effective parameters in landslide occurrence and prediction. this study aims to improve landslide prediction results for tutkabon region in gilan province. to this end, shannon entropy theory was employed for modeling and considering data uncertainty. slope, height, geomorphologic conditions, earth’s curve, closeness to river, ...

rapid technological and economic growth over the last several decades has changed human lives and made modern society face complex decision making problems. these kinds of problems are characterized by incommensurate and conflicting criteria or objectives such as cost, reliability, performance, safety and productivity. multi criteria decision making is an approach that can be used to deal compl...

let $g$ be a finite simple graph whose vertices and edges are weighted by two functions. in this paper we shall define and calculate entropy of a dynamical system on weights of the graph $g$, by using the weights of vertices and edges of $g$. we examine the conditions under which entropy of the dynamical system is zero, possitive or $+infty$. at the end it is shown that, for $rin [0,+infty]$, t...

In this paper, we formulate a maximum entropy framework for two-parameter Rank-Order (RO) distribution, namely the discrete generalized beta distribution (DGBD), which has recently been observed to be extremely useful in modeling several rank-size distributions from different context Arts and Sciences, as generalization of Zipf’s law. Although it seen provide excellent fits real world empirical...

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the maxmin values of repeated two-person zero-sum games with a bound on the strategic entropy of the maximizer’s strategies while the other player is unrestricted. We will show that if the Ž . bound h n , a function of the number of repetitions n, satisfies the condition Ž . Ž . nŽ Ž .. Ž .Ž . h n rn a g n a ` , then the maxmin value W h n converges to ...
