About The Book
Diffusion Phenomena: Cases and Studies by Richard Ghez, published by Dover, is a comprehensive and authoritative text that introduces the fundamental aspects of diffusion and the methods used to analyze them through a variety of physical examples. This 336-page paperback is especially valuable for students and professionals in physics, chemistry, biology, metallurgy, semiconductor technology, and applied mathematics.
Emphasizing modeling and methodology, the book effectively bridges the gap between physico-chemical formulations of kinetic processes and their transformation into solvable diffusion problems. Drawing on the author's extensive experience in industrial and scientific settings, the text offers clear and relevant examples grounded in real-world applications.
The content begins with a foundational chapter on the diffusion equation and advances through steady-state scenarios, diffusion in external force fields, and time-dependent problems. Further chapters cover surface rate limitations, segregation phenomena, the use of Laplace transforms, and concepts of similarity solutions. With an emphasis on analytical clarity, the book requires prior knowledge of calculus and thermodynamics, making it ideal for upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals seeking a rigorous yet practical guide to diffusion processes.
