  dcterms:description """When the temperature of a substance changes, the energy that is stored in the intermolecular bonds
    between atoms changes. When the stored energy increases, so does the length of the molecular bonds. As a result, solids
    typically expand in response to heating and contract on cooling; this dimensional response to temperature change is expressed
    by its coefficient of thermal expansion.  Different coefficients of thermal expansion can be defined for a substance depending
    on whether the expansion is measured by:  * linear thermal expansion * area thermal expansion * volumetric thermal expansion
    These characteristics are closely related. The volumetric thermal expansion coefficient can be defined for both liquids and
    solids. The linear thermal expansion can only be defined for solids, and is common in engineering applications.  Some
    substances expand when cooled, such as freezing water, so they have negative thermal expansion coefficients. [Wikipedia]
