Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise, elementary treatment illustrates the ways in which an atomic-molecular perspective yields new insights and powers operative in the realms of macroscopic thermodynamics. Starting with an analysis of some very simple microcanonical ensembles, it proceeds to the Boltzmann distribution law and a systematic exploration of the proper formulation, evaluation, and application of partition functions. The concepts of equilibrium and entropy thus acquire new significance, and readers discover how thermodynamic parameters may be calculated from spectroscopic data. Encompassing virtually all of the forms of statistical mechanics customary to undergraduate physical chemistry books, this brief text requires prior acquaintance with only the rudiments of the calculus and a few of the simplest propositions of classical thermodynamics. Appropriate for introductory college chemistry courses, it further lends itself to use as a supplementary text for independent study by more advanced students.
Download or read book Elements of Classical Thermodynamics For Advanced Students of Physics written by A. B. Pippard and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1964 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The laws of thermodynamics are amongst the most assured and wide-ranging of all scientific laws. They do not pretend to explain any observation in molecular terms but, by showing the necessary relationships between different physical properties, they reduce otherwise disconnected results to compact order, and predict new effects. This classic title, first published in 1957, is a systematic exposition of principles, with examples of applications, especially to changes of places and the conditions for stability. In all this entropy is a key concept.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Classical Statistical Thermodynamics written by Denis James Evans and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both a comprehensive overview and a treatment at the appropriate level of detail, this textbook explains thermodynamics and generalizes the subject so it can be applied to small nano- or biosystems, arbitrarily far from or close to equilibrium. In addition, nonequilibrium free energy theorems are covered with a rigorous exposition of each one. Throughout, the authors stress the physical concepts along with the mathematical derivations. For researchers and students in physics, chemistry, materials science and molecular biology, this is a useful text for postgraduate courses in statistical mechanics, thermodynamics and molecular simulations, while equally serving as a reference for university teachers and researchers in these fields.
Download or read book Classical Thermodynamics of Fluid Systems written by Juan H. Vera and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text explores the connections between different thermodynamic subjects related to fluid systems. Emphasis is placed on the clarification of concepts by returning to the conceptual foundation of thermodynamics and special effort is directed to the use of a simple nomenclature and algebra. The book presents the structural elements of classical thermodynamics of fluid systems, covers the treatment of mixtures, and shows via examples and references both the usefulness and the limitations of classical thermodynamics for the treatment of practical problems related to fluid systems. It also includes diverse selected topics of interest to researchers and advanced students and four practical appendices, including an introduction to material balances and step-by-step procedures for using the Virial EOS and the PRSV EOS for fugacities and the ASOG-KT group method for activity coefficients. The Olivera-Fuentes table of PRSV parameters for more than 800 chemical compounds and the Gmehling-Tochigi tables of ASOG interaction parameters for 43 groups are included.

Download or read book Principles Of Classical Thermodynamics Applied To Materials Science written by Didier De Fontaine and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to present Classical Thermodynamics in a unified way, from the most fundamental principles to non-uniform systems, thereby requiring the introduction of coarse graining methods, leading for instance to phase field methods. Solutions thermodynamics and temperature-concentration phase diagrams are covered, plus also a brief introduction to statistical thermodynamics and topological disorder. The Landau theory is included along with a general treatment of multicomponent instabilities in various types of thermodynamic applications, including phase separation and order-disorder transitions. Nucleation theory and spinodal decomposition are presented as extreme cases of a single approach involving the all-important role of fluctuations.In this way, it is hoped that this coverage will reconcile in a unified manner techniques generally presented separately in physics and materials texts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique and consistent mathematical treatise contains a deductive description of equilibrium statistics and thermodynamics. The most important elements of non-equilibrium phenomena are also treated. In addition to the fundamentals, the text tries to show how large the area of statistical mechanics is and how many applications can be found here. Modern areas such as renormalization group theory, percolation, stochastic equations of motion and their applications in critical dynamics, as well as fundamental thoughts of irreversibility are discussed. The text will be useful for advanced students in physics and other sciences who have profound knowledge of quantum mechanics.
Download or read book Elements of Statistical Mechanics written by Ivo Sachs and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-05-11 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2006 textbook provides a concise introduction to the key concepts and tools of statistical mechanics. It also covers advanced topics such as non-relativistic quantum field theory and numerical methods. After introducing classical analytical techniques, such as cluster expansion and Landau theory, the authors present important numerical methods with applications to magnetic systems, Lennard-Jones fluids and biophysics. Quantum statistical mechanics is discussed in detail and applied to Bose-Einstein condensation and topics in astrophysics and cosmology. In order to describe emergent phenomena in interacting quantum systems, canonical non-relativistic quantum field theory is introduced and then reformulated in terms of Feynman integrals. Combining the authors' many years' experience of teaching courses in this area, this textbook is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in physics, chemistry and mathematics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market_Desc: This book is aimed at all science and engineering students taking a first course in thermodynamics, although in practice, it will appeal predominantly to physicists, material scientists and chemists, as engineers tend to have books with examples and applications drawn directly from their subject. Special Features: · Each chapter includes numerous carefully worked out examples and problems with answers at the back of the book.· Presents an applied approach rather than theoretical.· Required mathematics is left simple. About The Book: There is a need for a new thermodynamics textbook aimed at physicists, chemists and other scientists. All scientists and engineers have to take a course on thermodynamics in their first/second year. Generally they are firstly taught thermodynamics and then many of them, although not all, take a course on statistical mechanics. Consequently the market is large, yet Wiley have relatively few books on this subject, and nothing recent that is aimed at this introductory market.
