Böcker av David R. (Purdue University Gaskell

Offers an introduction to the thermodynamic behavior of materials systems. Written as a basic text for advanced undergraduates and first year graduate students in metallurgy, metallurgical engineering, ceramics, or materials science, this book presents the underlying thermodynamic principles of materials and their plethora of applications.

This classic textbook book helps readers understand the basic physics of transport phenomena and how to apply them to materials processing. The Third Edition offers a significant shift in the approach to this subject, representing an evolution incorporating the original ideas and extending them to a more comprehensive approach to the topic.
