BOLTZMANN ENTROPY FOR UNDERSEA TERRAIN AIDED NAVIGATION
… planning algorithm utilizing a new paradigm in configuration entropy. It highlights a classic challenge in the path planning problem between exploration and exploitation. Exploration ensures complete coverage of the region, while exploitation utilizes terrain features to reduce positional …

Effect of chain structure on the thermodynamics and kinetics of polymer crystallization
… on the cyclic PDMS fractions confirmed that the configuration entropy decreases with decreasing molecular weight. Additionally, the studies on the cyclic PDMS fractions have shown that the σ-C<sub>∞</sub> relationship of Hoffman and coworkers fails for cyclic systems. The crystal growth rates, …

A viscoelastic hydrodynamic approach to the density fluctuations in classical liquids
… of strong interatomic potential and large configuration entropy, a liquid exhibits rich patterns of dynamic processes over a wide range of length scales and time scales. Largely for this reason, developing a molecular theory of simple liquids still remains a notoriously challenging topic of …

Nucleation and Growth of Defects in Nitrogen doped Silicon
Ultra high purity silicon is advantageously modified by as low as 5x10¹⁴ cm⁻³ nitrogen. Such a doping level was proved to drastically impact grown-in and process-induced defects, enhances the denuded zone intended for making devices, improves impurity gettering, and increases the gate oxide …
