Physical adsorption in disordered porous materials: Theory and computer simulations

This thesis is aimed to gain a better understanding of adsorption phenomena, with a special emphasis on hysteresis, an effect commonly observed in adsorption experiments on porous substrates. We approach this problem using an array of statistical mechanical methods and computer simulation techniques...
