Irreversible Phenomena: Ignitions, Combustion and Detonation Waves
Ideals are simple and able to be easily understood, but never exist in reality.
In this book a theory based on the second law of thermodynamics and its applications are described. In thermodynamics there is a concept of an ideal gas which satisfies a mathematical formula PV = RT. This formula can approximately be applied to the... | | The Physics of HockeyWhat do Wayne Gretzky and thermodynamics have in common? A lot more than you might think. The game the National Hockey League calls " the coolest game on earth" is also a fast-paced, dynamic display of physics in action.
In The Physics of Hockey, physicist and amateur hockey player Alain Haché examines some of the... | | Principles and Models of Biological TransportTransport processes are ubiquitous in the living organism, underlying nerve conduction and muscle contraction, digestion, kidney function and the nourishment of every cell in the body. The mechanisms by which these processes take place, and the models that describe them, are the subject of Principles and Models of Biological Transport,... |

Reversible Computing
The present book is dedicated to Dr. Rolf Landauer, whose early work on the subject
of reversible computing inspired me to begin more than 15 years of research
in this special corner of computer science. Twice I had the privilege to meet him
personally: once inWest Berlin (1992) and once in Boston (1996). Twice he encouraged
me... | | Thermodynamics And Heat Powered Cycles: A Cognitive Engineering Approach
Due to the rapid advances in computer technology, intelligent computer software and
multimedia have become essential parts of engineering education. Software integration with
various media such as graphics, sound, video and animation is providing efficient tools for
teaching and learning. A modern textbook should contain both the... | | |

Dynamics of Complex Systems (Studies in Nonlinearity)The study of complex systems in a unified framework has become recognized in recent years as a new scientific discipline, the ultimate in the interdisciplinary fields. Breaking down the barriers between physics, chemistry, and biology and the so-called soft sciences of psychology, sociology, economics and anthropology, this text explores the... | | CRC Handbook of Thermal Engineering (Mechanical Engineering Handbook Series)To be successful in the international marketplace, corporations must have access to the latest developments and most recent experimental data. Traditional handbooks of heat transfer stress fundamental principles, analytical approaches to thermal problems, and elegant solutions to classical problems. The CRC Handbook of Thermal Engineering is not a... | | Electrolytes at Interfaces (Progress in Theoretical Chemistry and Physics)
The aim of this book is to provide the reader with a modern presentation of ionic solutions at interfaces, for physical chemists, chemists and theoretically oriented experimentalists in this field. The discussion is mainly on the structural and thermodynamic properties, in relation to presently available statistical mechanical models. Some... |

Everything Forever: Learning To See Timelessness
Everything Forever is a highly original book about time, about the future, about the evolution of order and complexity presently taking place in the universe. In a deeply insightful poetic style Giorbran lays out the foundation of the timeless realm, extending the ideas of both David Bohm and Stephen Hawking by literally creating a visual... | | Molecular Thermodynamics of Complex Systems (Structure and Bonding)With the development of science and technology,more and more complex materials such as porous materials, ion liquid, liquid crystals, thin films and colloids etc. are being developed in laboratories. However, it is difficult to prepare these advanced materials and use them on a large scale without some experience. Therefore, molecular... | | Physics For Dummies (Math & Science)Does just thinking about the laws of motion make your head spin? Does studying electricity short your circuits? Do the complexities of thermodynamics cool your enthusiasm?
Thanks to this book, you don’t have to be Einstein to understand physics. As you read about Newton’s Laws, Kepler’s Laws, Hooke’s Law, Ohm’s... |
