Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics: Transport and Rate Processes in Physical, Chemical and Biological Systems
Autor Yasar Demirel, Vincent Gerbauden Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 iul 2025
This book will be an excellent resource for graduate students and researchers in the fields of engineering, chemistry, physics, energy, biotechnology, and biology, as well as those whose work involves understanding the evolution of nonequilibrium systems, information theory, stochastic processes, and sustainable engineering. This may also be useful to professionals working in irreversibility, dissipative structures, process exergy analysis and thermoeconomics, digitalization in manufacturing, and data processing.
- Highlights the fundamentals of equilibrium thermodynamics and phase equilibria
- Expands the theory of nonequilibrium thermodynamics and its use in coupled reactions and transport processes in various time and space scales of physical, chemical, and biological systems
- Discusses self-organized dissipative structures, quantum thermodynamics, information theory, and stochastic approaches in thermodynamic analysis, including fluctuation theories and molecular motors
- Includes new content on sustainable engineering with thermodynamics tools and techniques, including energy analysis, process intensification, and artificial intelligence
- Presents many fully solved examples and numerous practice problems
- Offers instructor resources containing a solution manual that can be obtained from the authors
