Thermodynamics : a dynamical systems approach / Wassim M. Haddad, VijaySekhar Chellaboina, Sergey G. Nersesov. - Princeton : Princeton University Press, �2005. - 1 online resource (xii, 187 pages) : illustrations - Princeton series in applied mathematics . - Princeton series in applied mathematics. .
Includes bibliographical references (pages 175-183) and index.
Introduction -- Dynamical system theory -- systems foundation for thermodynamics -- Temperature equipartition and the kinetic theory of gases -- Work, heat, and the Carnot cycle -- Thermodynamic systems with linear energy exchange -- Continuum thermodynamics. Machine generated contents note: Ch. 1 Ch. 2 Ch. 3 Ch. 4 Ch. 5 Ch. 6 Ch. 7
This book places thermodynamics on a system-theoretic foundation so as to harmonize it with classical mechanics. Using the highest standards of exposition and rigor, the authors develop a novel formulation of thermodynamics that can be viewed as a moderate-sized system theory as compared to statistical thermodynamics. This middle-ground theory involves deterministic large-scale dynamical system models that bridge the gap between classical and statistical thermodynamics. The authors' theory is motivated by the fact that a discipline as cardinal as thermodynamics--entrusted with some of the most.
