= Maximum entropy thermodynamics
{wiki=Maximum_entropy_thermodynamics}
Maximum entropy thermodynamics is an approach to statistical mechanics and thermodynamics that is based on the principle of maximizing the entropy of a system, given certain constraints. It is grounded in the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of an isolated system tends to increase over time. This method provides a systematic way to derive equilibrium states and understand thermodynamic properties. \#\#\# Key Concepts 1. **Entropy**: In thermodynamics, entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system.
