Introduction to Thermal Analysis [E-Book] : Techniques and applications / by Michael E. Brown.
The aim of this book is, as its title suggests, to help sOilleone with little or no knowledge of what thermal analysis can do, to find out briefly what the subject is all about, to decide whether it will be of use to him or her, and to help in getting started on the more common techniques. Some of t...
