Materials ThermodynamicsAuthor(s): Y. Austin Chang, W. Alan Oates\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc, United States\nImprint: John Wiley & Sons Inc\nISBN-13: 9780470484142, 978-0470484142\nSynopsis\nA timely, applications-driven text in thermodynamics Materials Thermodynamics provides both students and professionals with the in-depth explanation they need to prepare for the real-world application of thermodynamic tools. Based upon an actual graduate course taught by the authors, this class-tested text covers the subject with a broader, more industry-oriented lens than can be found in any other resource available. This modern approach:\n\n Reflects changes rapidly occurring in society at largefrom the impact of computers on the teaching of thermodynamics in materials science and engineering university programs to the use of approximations of higher order than the usual Bragg-Williams in solution-phase modeling\n\n Makes students aware of the practical problem.
