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.
