'Thermodynamics of Materials' introduces the basic underlying principles of thermodynamics as well as their applicability to the behavior of all classes ofmaterials, 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 graduatestudents in all fields involving materials science-related disciplines. Prof.Qing Jiang received his Ph.D. from the Universität Stuttgart, Germany in 1990and is a professor at Jilin University, China. Dr. Zi Wen is a professor at Jilin University. Covering all classes of materials Integrating macroscopic, mesoscopic, and microscopic thermodynamics Including the new field of nanothermodynamics Stressing physical thermodynamics of materials Many of interesting and non-traditional topics in thermodynamics are introduced at a graduate level INDICE: Exordium (Introduction).- Statistical Thermodynamics.- Heat Capacity and Entropy.- Thermodynamics of Solutions and Phase Diagrams.- Thermodynamics of Phase Transformations.-Thermodynamics of Interfaces.
