Willard Gibbs [Dover Publications, Inc. New York, 1961, 434 pp. an unabridged and unaltered republication of the work originally published by Longmans, Green and Company in 1906] From the introduction by Henry Andrews Bumstead: Josiah Willard Gibbs was born in New Haven, Connecticut, February 11, 1839, and died in the same city, April 28, 1903. He graduated from Yale College in 1858, received the degree of doctor of philosophy in 1863 and was appointed a tutor in the college for a term of three years. After his term as tutor he went to Paris (winter 1866/67) and to Berlin (1967), where he heard the lectures of Magnus and other teachers of physics and mathematics. In 1868 he went to Heidelberg where Kirchhoff and Ostwald were then stationed returning to New Haven in June 1869. Two years later he was appointed Professor of mathematical physics in Yale College, a position he held until the time of his death. In 1876 and 1878 he published the two parts of the paper "On the Equilibrium of Heterogeneous Substances", which is generally considered his most important contribution to physical sciences. It was translated into German in 1881 by Ostwald and into French in 1889 by Le Chatelier.

In fact the Gibbs family originated in Warwickshire, England and moved from there to Boston in 1658. However Gibbs is said to have taken after his mother in physical appearance. Gibbs was educated at the local Hopkins Grammar School where he was described as friendly but withdrawn. His total commitment to academic work together with rather delicate health meant that he was little involved with the social life of the school. In 1854 he entered Yale College where he won prizes for excellence in Latin and Mathematics. Remaining at Yale, Gibbs began to undertake research in engineering, writing a thesis in which he used geometrical methods to study the design of gears. When he was awarded a doctorate from Yale in 1863 it was the first doctorate of engineering to be conferred in the United States. After this he served as a tutor at Yale for three years, teaching Latin for the first two years and then Natural Philosophy in the third year. He was not short of money however since his father had died in 1861 and, since his mother had also died, Gibbs and his two sisters inherited a fair amount of money. From 1866 to 1869 Gibbs studied in Europe. He went with his sisters and spent the winter of 1866-67 in Paris, followed by a year in Berlin and, finally spending 1868-69 in Heidelberg. In Heidelberg he was influenced by

In other words, the final state has a lower energy content than the initial state Gibbs came up with an equation, combining both enthalpy and entropy contributions, that provided a means to describe energy content and therefore a means to evaluate the spontaneity of a reaction when that energy content changes. The energy contents of a substance was termed the Gibbs Free Energy and it was defined by the Gibbs Free Energy equation: G = H - T*S The free energy of a substance = stored heat energy - inherent disorder at a reference temperature H is enthalpy, S is entropy and T is the temperature in Kelvin

Gibbs, J(osiah) Willard J. Willard Gibbs b. , Feb. 11, 1839, New Haven, Conn., U.S. d. April 28, 1903, New Haven theoretical physicist and chemist who was one of the greatest scientists in the United States in the 19th century. His application of thermodynamic theory converted a large part of physical chemistry from an empirical into a deductive science. Gibbs was the fourth child and only son of Josiah Willard Gibbs, Sr., professor of sacred literature at Yale University. There were college presidents among his ancestors and scientific ability in his mother's family. Facially and mentally, Gibbs resembled his mother. He was a friendly youth but was also withdrawn and intellectually absorbed. This circumstance and his delicate health kept him from participating much in student and social life. He was educated at the local Hopkins Grammar School and in 1854 entered Yale, where he won a succession of prizes. After graduating, Gibbs pursued research in engineering. His thesis on the design of gearing was distinguished by the logical rigour with which he employed geometrical methods of analysis. In 1863 Gibbs received the first doctorate of engineering to be conferred in the United States. He was appointed a tutor at Yale in the same year. He devoted some attention to engineering invention.

Vector A vector is a set of numbers that transform as This makes a vector a Tensor of Rank 1. Vectors are invariant under Translation , and they reverse sign upon inversion. A vector is uniquely specified by giving its Divergence and Curl within a region and its normal component over the boundary, a result known as Helmholtz's Theorem (Arfken 1985, p. 79). A vector from a point to a point is denoted , and a vector may be denoted , or more commonly, A vector with unit length is called a Unit Vector and is denoted with a Hat . An arbitrary vector may be converted to a Unit Vector by dividing by its Norm , i.e., Let be the Unit Vector defined by Then the vectors a b c d satisfy the identities and where is the Kronecker Delta is a Dot Product , and Einstein Summation has been used.

1998 is the 125th anniversary of the publication by J. Willard Gibbs of his first thermodynamic work "Graphical methods in the thermodynamics of fluids". J. Willard Gibbs later created the general thermodynamic theory, which is a strict physical theory applying to the whole real world. This theory has been of limited, or of questionable use in biology for the investigation of open systems. Recently the theory has been extended to real open biological systems and a hierarchical equilibrium thermodynamics has been created . A study of quasiclosed systems enables one to draw conclusions about the thermodynamic direction of biological evolution and aging of living beings. The most essential application of the theory relates to the study of living creature's behavior and to anti-aging medicine, gerontology, pharmacology, nutrition and other branches of biology and medicine.  Supramolecular thermodynamics of closed biological systems Structure of the nucleosome Karolin Luger et al., Nature 389 / September 1997, p.251 Helical conformation of a meta -substituted phenylacetylene octadecamer (n=18), where R=H and the end groups have been removed

Home Download Order email The Basis of Energetics 1. History of Chemical Energetics In the last third of the nineteenth century different scientists tried to find a connection between energy and the driving force of chemical reactions. Since reactions that go more thoroughly to completion tend to be exothermic, the French chemist Marcelin BERTHELOT (1827-1907) proposed a first principle: "The thermal energy of a chemical reaction and the constancy of the products formed spontaneously at these reactions are a measure for the chemical affinity." By affinity (Lat. kinship) the old chemists understood the ability of materials to react with each other; those that exhibited this tendency were considered to be "kindred". Also the English scientist Sir William THOMSON (lord KELVIN) independently developed essentially the same hypothesis, namely that endothermic reactions could not take place spontaneously (at that time no conterexamples were known; the endothermic dissolution of salts was not then considered a chemical process.) The American chemist and physicist J. Willard GIBBS (1839-1903) of Yale university was the first to formulate a fundamental theory theory of the thermodynamics of the driving force of chemical reactions. Also the Dutch chemist van't HOFF, who worked at the Prussian academy of sciences, demonstrated experimentally in 1906 that the energy released in a reaction does not of itself determine whether or not a reaction proceeds. Van't Hoff ascertained when mixing natriumsulfate (=sodiumsulfate) with kaliumchloride (=potassiumchloride) a endotherm reaction under liquefaction. At this reaction the order in the crystall lattice changes.

60. C3 Fun Run Was this some sort of perverse stratagem to catch us all napping and steal the coveted J. willard gibbs Fun Run Trophy? Napping, that s it! It suddenly hit me. http://www.douglas.bc.ca/chem/c3/96conf/funrun.html

The C Fun Run: The Real Story by Bob Browne t was Saturday morning, 6 o'clock, and as I bent over to pull on my running shoes, a sharp pain in the temple reminded me that we had said goodbye to the last bottle of Chateau C the night before. Bob Perkins and I were sharing a hotel room, and it seemed to have become the default conference hospitality suite. It's a dirty job, but in Shahid's absence this year, somebody had to do it. I stumbled across the hotel lobby to check the temperature outside. It was a bright clear morning, but the resistance of the door to my efforts to open it betrayed a stiff Yukon breeze on the other side. As I stood outside, I wondered if the good folks at Nike had ever considered making Polarguard running shorts. The run was to start on the east side of the Yukon river, across the bridge from where the sternwheeler Klondike sits as a reminder of the area's colourful past. I joined small group of runners headed across the bridge for our meeting with destiny. By the time we arrived, the van from the college rolled into the parking lot, dropped its load of bleary-eyed runners, and headed back. There was no way to avoid it now, there was definitely going to be a run. The race start was deceptively easy, and I soon found myself running along a narrow trail beside the river. It quickly became apparent that this was a cross-country course, sometimes requiring a jump over a creek, other times a quick decision about which fork in the trail to take. The pace seemed tentative, as if the runners needed some time to warm up and check out the competition. After an uneventful 2.5 km, we reached the dam where the route doubled back. There is extensive fish ladder here, constructed to allow fish to struggle around the power dam and continue up stream. Today, there was no water, no fish, and absolutely no reason to stop, and yet I found myself joining the crowd staring down into the empty structure. There was nothing there!
