Theory of Simple Liquidsby Jean-Pierre Hansen; I.R. McDonald
Elsevier 2006; US$ 131.00The third edition of Theory of Simple Liquids is an updated, advanced, but self-contained introduction to the principles of liquid-state theory. It presents the modern, molecular theory of the structural, thermodynamic interfacial and dynamical properties of the liquid phase of materials constituted of atoms, small molecules or ions. This book leans on concepts and methods form classical Statistical Mechanics in which theoretical predictions are systematically compared with experimental data and results from numerical simulations. The overall layout of the book is similar to that of the previous two editions however, there are considerable changes in emphasis and several key additions including: ?up-to-date presentation of modern theories... more...
The Corresponding-States Principle and its Practiceby Hong Wei Xiang
Elsevier 2005; US$ 195.00The corresponding-states principle helps the understanding and calculating of thermodynamic, transport, and surface properties of substances in various states, required by our modern lifestyle. The Corresponding-States Principle and its Practice: Thermodynamic, Transport and Surface Properties of Fluids describes the origins and applications of the principle from a universal point of view with comparisons to experimental data where possible. It uses the universal theory to explain present theories. Emphasis is on the properties of pure systems, and the corresponding-states theory can also be extended to mixtures, which are treated as pure systems. Furthermore, the author discusses current progress, and shows technicians how to derive practical... more...
Equations of State for Fluids and Fluid Mixturesby J.V. Sengers; R.F. Kayser; C.J. Peters; H.J. White
Elsevier 2000; US$ 400.00This book has been prepared under the auspices of Commission I.2 on Thermodynamics of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). The authors of the 18 chapters are all recognized experts in the field. The book gives an up-to-date presentation of equations of state for fluids and fluid mixtures. All principal approaches for developing equations of state are covered. The theoretical basis and practical use of each type of equation is discussed and the strength and weaknesses of each is addressed. Topics addressed include the virial equation of state, cubic equations and generalized van der Waals equations, perturbation theory, integral equations, corresponding stated and mixing rules. Special attention is also devoted... more...
Computational Multiscale Modeling of Fluids and Solidsby M.O. Steinhauser
Springer 2007; US$ 189.00The idea of the book is to provide a comprehensive overview of computational physics methods and techniques, that are used for materials modeling on different length and time scales. Each chapter first provides an overview of the physical basic principles which are the basis for the numerical and mathematical modeling on the respective length-scale. The book includes the micro-scale, the meso-scale and the macro-scale. The chapters follow this classification. The book will explain in detail many tricks of the trade of some of the most important methods and techniques that are used to simulate materials on the perspective levels of spatial and temporal resolution. Case studies are occasionally included to further illustrate some methods or theoretical... more...
Advanced Fluid Mechanicsby William Graebel
Elsevier 2007; US$ 98.95Fluid mechanics is the study of how fluids behave and interact under various forces and in various applied situations, whether in liquid or gas state or both. The author compiles pertinent information that are introduced in the more advanced classes at the senior level and at the graduate level. ?Advanced Fluid Mechanics? courses typically cover a variety of topics involving fluids in various multiple states (phases), with both elastic and non-elastic qualities, and flowing in complex ways. This new text will integrate both the simple stages of fluid mechanics (?Fundamentals?) with those involving more complex parameters, including Inviscid Flow in multi-dimensions, Viscous Flow and Turbulence, and a succinct introduction to Computational... more...
An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics and Transport Phenomenaby G. Hauke
Springer 2008; US$ 179.00Presents the transport phenomena of momentum, heat and mass from a rigorous fluid mechanics point of view, and explains them using a unified, systematic approach, including the analogies between the various transport phenomena. more...
Los líquidos (Liquids)by William B. Rice
Shell Education 2011; US$ 8.99What takes the shape of the container it is in and changes shape when the container changes? Liquids! A liquid is a state of matter that has some big differences from solids and gases. more...
