Introduction to Thermodynamics and Kinetic Theory of Matter
Author: Anatoly I. Burshtein
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 3527618120
Category : Science
Languages : de
Pages : 349
Book Description
Imparts the similarities and differences between ratified and condensed matter, classical and quantum systems as well as real and ideal gases. Presents the quasi-thermodynamic theory of gas-liquid interface and its application for density profile calculation within the van der Waals theory of surface tension. Uses inductive logic to lead readers from observation and facts to personal interpretation and from specific conclusions to general ones.

Molecular Gas Dynamics
Author: Yoshio Sone
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 081764573X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 667
Book Description
This self-contained book is an up-to-date description of the basic theory of molecular gas dynamics and its various applications. The book, unique in the literature, presents working knowledge, theory, techniques, and typical phenomena in rarefied gases for theoretical development and application. Basic theory is developed in a systematic way and presented in a form easily applied for practical use. In this work, the ghost effect and non-Navier–Stokes effects are demonstrated for typical examples—Bénard and Taylor–Couette problems—in the context of a new framework. A new type of ghost effect is also discussed.

Lectures On Phase Transitions And The Renormalization Group
Author: Nigel Goldenfeld
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0429962045
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
Covering the elementary aspects of the physics of phases transitions and the renormalization group, this popular book is widely used both for core graduate statistical mechanics courses as well as for more specialized courses. Emphasizing understanding and clarity rather than technical manipulation, these lectures de-mystify the subject and show precisely "how things work." Goldenfeld keeps in mind a reader who wants to understand why things are done, what the results are, and what in principle can go wrong. The book reaches both experimentalists and theorists, students and even active researchers, and assumes only a prior knowledge of statistical mechanics at the introductory graduate level.Advanced, never-before-printed topics on the applications of renormalization group far from equilibrium and to partial differential equations add to the uniqueness of this book.
