| Summary: | Materials Kinetics: Transport and Rate Phenomena, Second Edition provides readers with a clear understanding of how physical-chemical principles are applied to fundamental kinetic processes. The book integrates advanced concepts with foundational knowledge and cutting-edge computational approaches, demonstrating how diffusion, morphological evolution, viscosity, relaxation, and other kinetic phenomena can be applied to practical materials design problems across all classes of materials. Thermodynamics, Fick's law, dislocation and interfacial motion, kinetics of phase separation, molecular dynamics, energy landscapes, and Monte Carlo simulation techniques are each covered. This second edition also features brand new chapters on sintering, topological constraint theory, ab initio molecular dynamics, thermal conduction, and electrical conduction. All preexisting chapters have been revised and updated to include new exercises, and topics covered have been expanded to include examples of multicomponent diffusion, particle jump frequency, diffusion along dislocations, modeling of grain boundary diffusion, applications of phase-field modeling, applications of diffuse interface theory, and much more. |
