Opis

Integrates fundamental concepts with experimental data and practical applications, including worked examples and end-of-chapter problems.

Recenzje

'The book introduces basic thermodynamic concepts clearly and directs readers to appropriate references for advanced concepts and details of software implementation. The list of references is quite comprehensive. … This book will serve as an excellent reference on computational thermodynamics, and the exercises provided at the end of each chapter make it valuable as a graduate level textbook.' Ram Devanathan, MRS Bulletin
