Entropy Trumps All (First Computational for the 2-D CVM)
Computational vs. Analytic Results for the 2-D Cluster Variation Method: Three lessons learned: first computational results for the 2-D Cluster Variation Method, or CVM. The first-results comparisons between analytic predictions and the actual computational results tell us three things: (1) the analytics are a suggestion, not an actual values-prediction, and the further that we go from zero-values for the two enthalpy parameters, the more that the two diverge, (2) topography is important (VERY important), and (3) entropy rules the…
