DeHoff, Robert T.
Thermodynamics in materials science / Robert T. DeHoff - New York : McGraw Hill Education, c1993 - xv, 532 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Includes index.
The structure of thermodynamics -- The laws of thermodynamics -- Thermodynamic variables and relations -- Equilibrium in thermodynamic systems -- statistical thermodynamics -- unary heterogenous systems -- multicomponent, heterogenous non-reacting systems - solutions -- multicomponent, multiphase reacting systems -- capillary effects in thermodynamics -- defects in crystals -- equilibrium in continuous systems - thermodynamic effects of external fields -- electrochemistry.
Adopts an approach based upon a general criterion for equilibrium (developed from the law of thermodynamics), which yields a general strategy for obtaining conditions for equilibrium. The level of discussion is rigorous, but no steps are ommited in establishing the conclusions.
