Materials KineticsTransport and Rate Phenomena\nAuthor(s): John C. Mauro\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc, United States\nImprint: Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc\nISBN-13: 9780128239070, 978-0128239070\nSynopsis\nMaterials Kinetics: Transport and Rate Phenomena provides readers with a clear understanding of how physical-chemical principles are applied to fundamental kinetic processes. The book integrates advanced concepts with foundational knowledge and cutting-edge computational approaches, demonstrating how diffusion, morphological evolution, viscosity, relaxation and other kinetic phenomena can be applied to practical materials design problems across all classes of materials. The book starts with an overview of thermodynamics, discussing equilibrium, entropy, and irreversible processes. Subsequent chapters focus on analytical and numerical solutions of the diffusion equation, covering Ficks laws, multicomponent diffusion, numerical solutions, a.
