Teisseyre R., Majewski E. (Eds.) Earthquake Thermodynamics and Phase Transformations in the Earth's Interior

International Geophysics Series, 2001, Volume 76. Academic Press, New York, London, 2001. - 674 pages, ISBN: 0126851859Earthquake thermodynamics offers us a microscopic model of earthquake sources. Through the thermodynamic approach, the authors arrive at the fascinating question of posssibility of earthquake prediction. In general, the Earth is considered here as a multicomponent system. Transport phenomena as well as wave propagation and shock waves are considered in this system subjected also to chemical and phase transformations.Thermodynamics and phase transformations in the earth's interior
