| Title | Statistical Mechanics : Selecta of Elliott H. Lieb |
| Author(s) | Lieb, E.H;Nachtergaele, Bruno;Solovej, Jan Philip;Yngvason, Jakob |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2004. |
| Description | X, 508 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In Statistical Physics one of the ambitious goals is to derive rigorously, from statistical mechanics, the thermodynamic properties of models with realistic forces. Elliott Lieb is a mathematical physicist who meets the challenge of statistical mechanics head on, taking nothing for granted and not being content until the purported consequences have been shown, by rigorous analysis, to follow from the premises. The present volume contains a selection of his contributions to the field, in particular papers dealing with general properties of Coulomb systems, phase transitions in systems with a continuous symmetry, lattice crystals, and entropy inequalities. It also includes work on classical thermodynamics, a discipline that, despite many claims to the contrary, is logically independent of statistical mechanics and deserves a rigorous and unambiguous foundation of its own. The articles in this volume have been carefully annotated by the editors |

| Title | The Physical Basis of The Direction of Time |
| Author(s) | Zeh, H. Dieter |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2001. |
| Description | X, 231 p. 4 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book has been thoroughly revised to include important new results. At the same time it retains the features that make it a classic text on irreversibility, and one which clearly distinguishes the latter from those time asymmetries which may be compensated for by other asymmetries. The book investigates irreversible phenomena in classical, quantum and cosmological settings. In particular, this fourth edition contains a revised treatment of radiation damping as well as extended sections on dynamical maps, quantum entanglement and decoherence, arrows of time hidden in various interpretations of quantum theory, and the emergence of time in quantum gravity. Both physicists and philosophers of science who reviewed earlier editions considered this book a magnificent survey, a concise, technically sophisticated, up-to-date discussion of the subject, showing showing fine sensitivity to crucial conceptual subtleties |

| Title | Multiparameter Equations of State : An Accurate Source of Thermodynamic Property Data |
| Author(s) | Span, Roland |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2000. |
| Description | XVIII, 367 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | As basis of printed property charts and tables, empirical multiparameter equations of state are the most important source of accurate thermodynamic property data for more than 30 years now. However, due to increasing demands on the accuracy of thermodynamic property data in computerised calculations, to the availability of appropriate software tools, and to increasing computer power, such formulations became a valuable tool for every days work nowadays. This development has increased the number of scientists, engineers, and students who are working with empirical multiparameter equations of state. Nevertheless, the common knowledge on this kind of thermodynamic property models and on the ongoing progress in this scientific discipline is still very limited. This book is the first attempt to summarise the available know-how from the fundamentals to very recent developments in a single reference. Since the book is dedicated both to common users and to scientists who want to engage themselves in the development of multiparameter equations of state, general topics like the application of empirical equations of state or typical performances of different classes of formulations are discussed separately from advanced topics like the optimisation of the functional form or the improved representation of properties in the critical region. In this way, the book becomes a useful reference for readers with very different background. 480 references, 352 equations, 154 figures, and 36 tables underline the ambitiousness of this approach |

| Title | Contact, Adhesion and Rupture of Elastic Solids |
| Author(s) | Maugis, D |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2000. |
| Description | XIV, 414 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In 1970 an investigation into rubber friction, sponsored by a manufacturer of automobile windscreen wipers, was being carried out at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge, England. When a smooth spherical slider of soft rubber was placed in contact with flat glass or perspex, the compliance of the rubber enabled it to conform to any slight roughness of the two surfaces such that perfect contact was obtained. In these circumstances the surfaces were found to adhere: under load the contact area exceeded that predicted by the Hertz theory of elastic contact, a contact area of finite size was seen at zero load and a tensile force was required to pull the surfaces apart. In an attempt to model these observations the JKR theory (Johnson, Kendall and Roberts, 1971) was born. At the same time, working in Moscow on adhesion of particles in colloidal suspension, Derjaguin, Muller and Toporov had developed a different ("DMT") theory of the adhesion of elastic spheres (DMT, 1975). At first it was thought that these theories were incompatible, until Tabor suggested that each applied to opposite ends of the spectrum of a non-dimensional parameter which expressed the ratio of the magnitude of the elastic deformation to the range of surface forces. This work was followed by Maugis and Barquins in the CNRS Laboratory at Belle Vue, who recognised the analogy between adhesion and fracture |

| Title | The Glass Transition : Relaxation Dynamics in Liquids and Disordered Materials |
| Author(s) | Donth, E |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2001. |
| Description | XVII, 418 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This is the first book dedicated to the glass transition since this concept became recognized as a distinct and independent field of investigation. The glass transition is a synonym for relaxation and dynamics in complex disordered systems, especially in liquids. It embraces time-scales ranging from picoseconds to years. The book describes and interrelates the following processes: cooperative alpha processes in a cold liquid, structural relaxation in the glass near Tg, the Johari-Goldstein beta process, the Williams-G??tze process in a warm liquid, fast nonactivated cage rattling and boson peak, and ultraslow Fischer modes. By describing the salient facts, explaining and discussing the fundamentals, the author attempts to introduce a unifying concept for the entire material. The formulas, diagrams and references are carefully selected to illustrate the main current ideas about the glass transition |

| Title | Thermodynamics of Fluids Under Flow |
| Author(s) | Jou, D;Casas-Vazquez, J;Criado-Sancho, M |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2001. |
| Description | XI, 231 p. 1 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The book analyzes the thermodynamic aspects of several phenomena induced by flow in fluid systems. It begins with a macroscopic formulation of the thermodynamic theory, within the framework of extended irreversible thermodynamics, and compares it with other non-equilibrium approaches. These macroscopic results are examined from a microscopic point of view for different systems, namely, ideal gases, non-ideal gases and dilute polymer solutions. The thermodynamic approach is applied to the analysis of shear-induced changes in the phase diagram of polymer solutions, to shear-induced diffusion and to chemical reactions under flow. It is also compared with the dynamical approach based on the detailed evolution equations. The book may be especially useful for researchers in non-equilibrium thermodynamics or non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and in polymer physics or materials sciences |

| Title | Continuum Mechanics and Theory of Materials |
| Author(s) | Haupt, Peter |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. |
| Description | XXVIII, 643 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This treatise attempts to portray the ideas and general principles of the theory of materials within the framework of phenomenological continuum mechanics. It is a well-written mathematical introduction to classical continuum mechanics and deals with concepts such as elasticity, plasticity, viscoelasticity and viscoplasticity in nonlinear materials. The aim of a general theory of material behaviour is to provide a classified range of possibilities from which a user can select the constitutive model that applies best. The book will be invaluable to graduate students of materials science in engineering and in physics. The new edition includes additional analytical methods in the classical theory of viscoelasticity. This leads to a new theory of finite linear viscoelasticity of incompressible isotropic materials. Anisotropic viscoplasticity is completely reformulated and extended to a general constitutive theory that covers crystal plasticity as a special case |
