Tentative Program

This program might still be modified… Please tell us if there is a big discrepancy with your schedule or if there are mistakes.

65 communications: 40 oral communications and 25 poster communications.
The oral communications last for 20 minutes including discussion (prepare 15 minutes talks) and the oral presentations of poster last for 3 minutes (no discussion, prepare 3 slides).

Please bring your ppt file in advance, i.e. before the session, to the computer in the main amphitheatre. The abstract presentations (3 slides) must be sent in advance by mail to an address that will be announced soon.

Those participants who have written books are invited to bring copies along with them for display during the conference

 

Four main themes:

A. Foundations of thermodynamics : history, philosophy, teaching of thermodynamics, I. Prigogine’s legacy, new approaches

B. Non-equilibrium thermodynamics: thermodiffusion, kinetics of phase transitions, transport processes, advanced concepts

C. Equilibrium thermodynamics: equations of state, phase equilibria, nanosystems, computation

D. Optimization and engineering systems: exergy, energy, finite-time thermodynamics
