Thermodynamics of Materials / Edition 1

by Qing Jiang, Zi Wen

Overview

"Thermodynamics of Materials" introduces the basic underlying principles of thermodynamics as well as their applicability to the behavior of all classes of materials, while providing an integrated approach from macro- (or classical) thermodynamics to meso- and nanothermodynamics, and microscopic (or statistical) thermodynamics. The book is intended for scientists, engineers and graduate students in all fields involving materials science-related disciplines.

Both Dr. Qing Jiang and Dr. Zi Wen are professors at Jilin University.
