Recenzii
From the reviews:
“In six chapters, the author describes the fundamental principles of thermodynamics, starting from Carnot’s works and ending with nonextensive thermodynamics. … Throughout the whole book, the author shows the power of Carnot works. He always quotes citations and computations from these original works, then considering criticisms and possible extensions. Students and researchers involved in the fundamentals of thermodynamics will surely be interested by this historical presentation of the thermodynamics starting from the pioneering works by Carnot and going to some recent extensions.” (Alain Brillard, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1186, 2010)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
Dr. Bernard H. Lavenda has written A New Perspective on Thermodynamics to combine an old look at thermodynamics with a new foundation. The book presents a historical perspective, which unravels the current presentation of thermodynamics found in standard texts, and which emphasizes the fundamental role that Carnot played in the development of thermodynamics.
A New Perspective on Thermodynamics will:
A New Perspective on Thermodynamics will:
- Chronologically unravel the development of the principles of thermodynamics and how they were conceived by their discoverers
- Bring the theory of thermodynamics up to the present time and indicate areas of further development with the union of information theory and the theory of means and their inequalities. New areas include nonextensive thermodynamics, the thermodynamics of coding theory, multifractals, and strange attractors.
- Reintroduce important, yet nearly forgotten, teachings of N.L. Sardi Carnot
- Highlight conceptual flaws in timely topics such as endoreversible engines, finite-time thermodynamics, geometrization of thermodynamics, and nonequilibrium work from equilibrium free energy differences.
