Heinz, S. 2003 Statistical Mechanics of Turbulent Flows. Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York, Tokyo (ISBN: 3-540-40103-2). The simulation of turbulent reacting flows, connected with ...
The Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics Group is one of the RSC's many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider chemical ...
Modeling of systems with emergent behavior. The course has two components: (1) basic and intermediate statistical mechanics, and (2) application of the course methods to a case study, chosen from ...
This virtual symposium focuses on using equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics to address significant problems in physical chemistry and chemical physics. It highlights the importance ...
How do they get us off the hook? In classical statistical mechanics, the probabilities that define entropy reflect our ignorance, as lamented above. Quantum mechanics, by contrast, famously ...
Statistical mechanics lies at the interface between probability theory and physics. It goes back to the physicists Clausius and in particular Gibbs and Boltzmann. Its aim is to understand the ...
Thermodynamics concerns the foundation of all branches of physical sciences. Therefore, this is a required course for all mechanical engineering students. Also, the students of all other branches of ...
