Beskrivning

Thermal Analysis and Thermodynamic Properties of Solids, Second Edition covers foundational principles and recent updates in the field, presenting an authoritative overview of theoretical knowledge and practical applications across several fields. Since the first edition of this book was published, large developments have occurred in the theoretical understanding of-and subsequent ability to assess and apply-principles of thermal analysis. Drawing on the knowledge of its expert author, this second edition provides fascinating insight for both new and experienced students, researchers, and industry professionals whose work is influenced or impacted by thermo analysis principles and tools.

Part 1 provides a detailed introduction and guide to theoretical aspects of thermal analysis and the related impact of thermodynamics. Key terminology and concepts, the fundamentals of thermophysical examinations, thermostatics, equilibrium background, thermotics, reaction kinetics and models, thermokinetics and the exploitation of fractals are all discussed. Part 2 then goes on to discuss practical applications of this theoretical information to topics such as crystallization kinetics and glass states, thermodynamics in superconductor models, and climate change.

Includes fully updated as well as new chapters on kinetic phase diagrams, thermokinetics in DTA experiments, and crystallization kinetics
Discusses the influence of key derivatives such as thermostatics, thermodynamics, thermotics, and thermokinetics
Helps readers understand and describe reaction kinetics in solids, both in terms of simplified descriptions of the reaction mechanism models and averaged descriptions using fractals

Mer om författaren

Professor Šesták is a multi-award-winning scientist, educator and photographer. After completing his Ph.D. in 1968, we went on to hold the titles of D.Sc Material Science and Associate Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Pardubice, Full Professor at the Institute of Chemical Technology in Prague, and was awarded Dr.h.c. for his life achievements in solid-state chemistry and physics by Pardubice University in 2010. He has worked around the world, including positions at the Institute of Physics (Czech Republic), Nuclear Centre in Studsvik, (Sweden), University of Missouri at Rola (USA), Kyoto University (Japan), Taiwan National University in Taipei (Taiwan), Charles University in Prague, University of West Bohemia in Pilzen, and University of New York in Prague (Czech Republic). In addition to publishing nearly 300 papers, Professor Šesták has authored, co-authored or edited 17 books with top scientific publishers, given around 250 plenary and invited lectures, and been featured in every edition of ‘Who’s Who in the World’ since 2000.
