OverviewA comprehensive introduction, examining both macroscopic and microscopic aspects of the subject, the book applies the theory of thermodynamics to a broad range of materials; from metals, ceramics and other inorganic materials to geological materials. Focusing on materials rather than the underlying mathematical concepts of the subject, this book will be ideal for the non-specialist requiring an introduction to the energetics and stability of materials. Macroscopic thermodynamic properties are linked to the underlying miscroscopic nature of the materials and trends in important properties are discussed. A unique approach covering both macroscopic and microscopic aspects of the subject Authors have worldwide reputations in this area Fills a gap in the market by featuring a wide range of real up-to-date examples and covering a large amount of materials Full Product DetailsAuthor: Svein Stølen (University of Oslo, Norway) , Tor Grande (Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway)Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc Imprint: John Wiley & Sons Inc Dimensions: Width: 17.50cm , Height: 2.90cm , Length: 24.70cm Weight: 0.879kg ISBN: 9780471492306ISBN 10: 0471492302 Pages: 408 Publication Date: 16 December 2003 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Out of stock ![]() The supplier is temporarily out of stock of this item.
