This book is an introduction to the applications in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of chaotic dynamics, and also to the use of techniques in statistical mechanics important for an understanding of the chaotic behaviour of fluid systems. The fundamental concepts of dynamical systems theory are
I have just started reading this book and I love it. I am a senior year physics student and I found it to be a perfect fit. The concept of non-eq. systems suddenly seems very simple, as opposed to what it was just a day ago.I read only a small part of this book though, but I felt obliged to communic
This is a presentation of the main ideas and methods of modern nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. It is the perfect introduction for anyone in chemistry or physics who needs an update or background in this time-dependent field. Topics covered include fluctuation-dissipation theorem; linear respon
