Design Rules for Characteristics of Heat Flow in Welding on Thick Plates using Asymptotics and Blending
DownloadSpring 2021
The problem of moving heat sources is central to a wide range of industrial fields, including welding, surface heat treatment and additive manufacturing. However, there are few general and easily applicable solutions to predict critical thermal characteristics of heat flow such as the cooling...

Spring 2024
This research was focused on the development of wildland firefighters’ protective clothing with improved thermal protection properties. Specifically, a new shirt design was developed, and garments were constructed which incorporated a three-dimensional warp-knitted fabric in specific areas. These...

This work is devoted to the modelling of heat storage device and energy storage reactors based on fixed-bed geometry. The interparticle discrete-element-method model is developed and used in this work. The model accounts for the interparticle heat exchange directly, which is most useful in a...

Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) technology has made possible the in situ production of bitumen at commercial scale. In this study, different mechanisms involved in heat transfer through porous media above SAGD steam chambers are investigated....
