The various volumes of the set will deal with the following topics:– phase modeling tools: application to gases;– modeling of liquid phases;– modeling of solid phases;– chemical equilibrium states;– phase transformations;– electrolytes and electrochemical thermodynamics;– thermodynamics of surfaces, capillary systems and phases of smalldimensions.Appendices in each volume give an introduction to the general methodsused in the text, and offer additional mathematical tools and some data.
