The laws of thermodynamics have been found to have broader application than the field of thermodynamics. The second law can be stated as: The entropy of an isolated system not in equilibrium will tend to increase over time, approaching a ma...

I would contend that all forms of market regulation follow the Second Law of Thermodynamics. In each case, a comprehensive statutory scheme is enacted as law, it imposes a closed system of rules on market actors, and over time the scheme inexorably breaks down. Federal securities regulation, which began with...

On the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics ... The Second Law of Thermodynamics (in Classical Thermodynamics) ... When you consider that one cubic centimenter of sea level air holds about 1019 molecules, you can see that the phase space occupied by the gas is conceptually quite large when compared to the physical space of the box.

It seems that something odd happens to the second law of thermodynamics when systems get sufficiently small. The law states that the entropy, or disorder, of the universe increases over time and it holds steadfast for large-scale systems. ... 60-Second Science Podcast...

This paper summarizes the recent work of Green and Naghdi concerning the thermomechanics of dissipative materials, the main features of which are: (a) The introduction of a conservation law for entropy which holds for all materials, (b) the use of the energy equation as an identity for all processes, thereby leading to ...
