As such, it is a subject of profound practical and fundamental importance to many science and engineering fields. Despite extremely varied applications ranging from nanomotors to cosmology, the core concepts of thermodynamics such as equilibrium and entropy are the same across all disciplines. A Conceptual Guide to Thermodynamics serves as a concise, conceptual and practical supplement to the major thermodynamics textbooks used in variousThermodynamicsElectronic books.Thermodynamics.536/.7Poirier Bill969410MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464744003321A conceptual guide to thermodynamics2202870UNINA02343nam0 2200493 i 450 VAN0010290320240806100721.659N978-1-4939-0458-720151013d2014 |0itac50 baengUS|||| |||||Mathematical Oncology 2013Alberto d'Onofrio, Alberto Gandolfi editorsNew YorkBirkhäuser ; Springer2014X, 334 p.ill.24 cm001VAN000573142001 Modeling and simulation in science, engineering and technology210 Boston [etc.]Birkhäuser1997-VAN00239824Mathematical Oncology 2013141072700A69General applied mathematics [MSC 2020]VANC022597MF35Q92PDEs in connection with biology, chemistry and other natural sciences [MSC 2020]VANC031096MF37N25Dynamical systems in biology [MSC 2020]VANC020364MF92-XXBiology and other natural sciences [MSC 2020]VANC020839MF92B05General biology and biomathematics [MSC 2020]VANC019880MF92BxxMathematical biology in general [MSC 2020]VANC021467MF92C37Cell biology [MSC 2020]VANC020841MF97M60Biology, chemistry, medicine (aspects of mathematics education) [MSC 2020]VANC031095MFAnticancer therapyKW:KMathematical biology and medicineKW:KMathematical modelingKW:KStochasticityKW:KSystems biologyKW:KTumorKW:KUSNew YorkVANL000011d'OnofrioAlbertoVANV080319GandolfiAlbertoVANV080320Birkhäuser <editore>VANV108193650Springer <editore>VANV108073650ITSOL20240906RICAhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-0458-7E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o ShibbolethBIBLIOTECA CENTRO DI SERVIZIO SBAVAN15NVAN00102903BIBLIOTECA CENTRO DI SERVIZIO SBA15CONS SBA EBOOK 4628 15EB 4628 20191106 Mathematical Oncology 20131410727UNICAMPANIA
