This book presents new research findings on thermodynamics from across a range of scientific fields. In the first part, the contributors offer fresh insights into topics including dynamical systems perspectives on thermodynamics, non-equilibrium thermodynamics in living systems, and the thermodynamic study of Saturn's moon, Titan. The second part focuses on thermodynamics in the physical chemistry of aqueous systems. Topics include 3D viscoelastic models for isotropic materials, and the stability of a three-state unfolding protein. In part three, the contributors discuss the kinetics of dynamic systems. Featured topics include principles of prediction and the properties of biomolecules on mineral surfaces. Finally, part four reviews systems in equilibrium and non-equilibrium. Contributions range widely across topics including seed and plant growth, the thermodynamics of imipramine hydrochloride, and defect formation in self-assembled systems. The book's contributors are experts from around the world, and their meticulous work is supported by reviews of the relevant literature, ensuring that this book is both a source of current knowledge and an excellent starting point for further research.
