In this work, for classical and isothermal processes, I provide thermodynamic equalities valid when the optimizations of macroscopic thermodynamic quantities are achieved in weak drivings. I illustrate their applicability by using them as a convergence criterion in the global optimization technique of genetic programming.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-08-31T18:25:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "thermodynamic optimization equalities", "weak processes", "global optimization technique", "thermodynamic equalities valid", "macroscopic thermodynamic quantities" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
