Program & speakers
Presentations are intended to bring together the thermodynamics community at large. They will give a pedagogical introduction and overview of diverse aspects of the field. As a silverline, each talk will start from the second law: how is it expressed and used in this context?
Presentation will be 40' long. A round table will be held at the end of each session for general discussion and perspectives.
Long breaks for lunch and coffee will allow further exchanges. Posters will be presented during these breaks to support discussions.
