University of Sydney: Structure and Properties of Materials/thermal Physics

Curated by ACT

An exhaustive set of "lecture notes" on various topics in thermal physics (including thermal expansion). Explanations are well done and more interesting than most. Includes both a mathematical and conceptual treatment of topics. Humor, anecdotes, demonstration ideas (suitable for student projects) mind-twisters are interjected throughout the writing.
