The First Principle -- The Second Principle -- The Equilibrium State -- Phase Equilibrium -- Non-Ideal Mixtures -- Surface Physics -- Non-equilibrium States -- Multiphase Systems -- Multicomponent Systems -- Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics from a Kinetic Standpoint.
This book presents the fundamentals of thermodynamics and is designed to serve as a comprehensive textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students. It caters to those who seek a deeper understanding of how irreversibility impacts thermodynamic processes between equilibrium states. Additionally, it aims to provide a thorough grasp of the underlying physical mechanisms governing the macroscopic behavior of multiphase and multicomponent systems, both in equilibrium and non-equilibrium states.
