Structure evolution of Pd-Ta-H alloy In Edwards' thermodynamics representation

Abstract

X-rays diffraction pictures time dependence of deformed alloy Pd-Ta being charged with hydrogen has been shown to be possibly caused by multi-pits character of energetic relief in the states space. Phenomenological model representing alloy structural evolution as a occasional roaming on minima of internal energy of non-ergodic system, has been offered in Lorenz synergetic scheme frames. Here, order parameters are the part of minima occupied by the system, conjugated field is considered to be Edwards entropy and control parameter is taken to be internal energy. Thermodynamics interpretation of Pd-Ta-H alloy evolution structure as a complex non-ergodic system is offered
