Description
SklogWiki is a wiki for the thermodynamics, statistical mechanics and computer simulation of materials community. SklogWiki derives its name from the famous equation for the entropy:
- S=k log W
This equation is engraved at the top of Boltzmann's headstone at the Vienna Zentralfriedhof.
The symbols,
- ΘΔcs
is the short-hand used by James Clerk Maxwell for the word thermodynamics.
Principal topics
- Classical thermodynamics
- Statistical mechanics
- Integral equations
- Monte Carlo simulations
- Molecular dynamics simulations
History
SklogWiki was founded by Carl McBride on the 15th of February 2007.
