  • Fundamentals of Classical Statistical Thermodynamics

    Dissipation, Relaxation, and Fluctuation Theorems

    by Denis James Evans, Debra Joy Searles, Stephen Rodney Williams ...
    Both a comprehensive overview and a treatment at the appropriate level of detail, this textbook explains thermodynamics and generalizes the subject so it can be applied to small nano- or biosystems, arbitrarily far from or close to equilibrium. In addition, nonequilibrium free energy theorems are covered with a rigorous exposition of each one. Throughout, the authors stress the physical concepts ... Read more

  • Effective Parameters of Hydrogeological Models

    by Vikenti Gorokhovski ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Models of geological objects are tools for interpolation and extrapolation of available data in space and time continuously. Real structures of the objects are unknown, and their models and simulated results carry uncertainty which cannot be evaluated in a provable way. The real issue is obtaining effective predictions in a reasonably defined sense. This requires a knowledge of mechanisms that ... Read more

  • Energy, Complexity and Wealth Maximization

    by Robert Ayres ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book is about the mechanisms of wealth creation, or what we like to think of as evolutionary "progress." The massive circular flow of goods and services between producers and consumers is not a perpetual motion machine; it has been dependent for the past 150 years on energy inputs from a finite storage of fossil fuels. In this book, you will learn about the three key requirements for wealth ... Read more
