Unlike most books in the field, it emphasizesthe natural connection between these two approaches, both as a wayof obtaining useful information about real systems, and as a way ofshowing the relations between the molecular-level properties ofsystems, and their properties on a macroscopic scale. In thisregard, the author''s aim throughout the text is to introduce therigorous, general relations that arise from classicalthermodynamics, which are system independent, and then to usestatistical thermodynamic relations to calculate the expectedvalues of the macroscopic thermodynamic parameters of thesystems.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Thermodynamics of Materials includes \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePartial table of contents:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e REVIEW OF CLASSICAL THERMODYNAMICS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Laws of Classical Thermodynamics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Criteria for Equilibrium.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Useful Mathematical Relations.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e General Theory of Phase Stability.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e FUNDAMENTALS OF STATISTICAL THERMODYNAMICS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Basis of Statistical Thermodynamics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Evaluation of Probabilities.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Evaluation of the Allowed Energies.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e SINGLE-COMPONENT SYSTEMS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Classical Thermodynamics of One-Component Systems.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Monatomic Ideal Gas.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Polyatomic Ideal Gas.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Einstein Model of the Solid.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Debye Model of the Solid.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Simple Liquids.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e MULTICOMPONENT SYSTEMS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Classical Thermodynamics of Multicomponent Systems.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Classical Thermodynamics of Solutions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Lattice Statistics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Lattice Gas with Interactions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e QUANTUM SYSTEMS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Perfect Electron Gas.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Blackbody Radiation.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Appendices.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.","brand":"John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53515425218903,"sku":"9780471311430","price":154.76,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/thermodynamics-of-materials-9780471311430","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
