A Numerical Method For Studying Thermal Deformation In 3d Double-Layered Thin Films With Imperfect Interfacial Thermal Contact Exposed To Ultrashort-Pulsed Lasers, Runzhou Liu

Doctoral Dissertations

Micro heat transfer induced by Ultrashort-pulsed lasers is an important research topic in mechanical engineering and material science. In order to apply ultrashort-pulsed lasers successfully, studying the thermal deformation in double-layered thin films with imperfect thermal interfacial contact induced by ultrashort-pulsed lasers is important for preventing thermal damage. For the ultrashort-pulsed laser, the thermal damage is different from that caused by the long-pulsed lasers, and ultrafast cracks occur after heating.

This dissertation presents a new finite difference method for investigating the thermal deformation in a 3D gold-chromium thin film with imperfect interfacial thermal contact exposed to ultrashort-pulsed lasers. The method …

Heat transfer in living tissue has become more and more attention for researchers, because high thermal radiation produced by intense fire, such as wild fires, chemical fires, accidents, warfare, terrorism, etc, is often encountered in human's daily life. Living tissue is a heterogeneous organ consisting of cellular tissue and blood vessels, and heat transfer in cellular tissue and blood vessel is quite different, because the blood vessels provide channels for fast heat transfer. The metabolic heat generation, heat conduction and blood perfusion in soft tissue, convection and perfusion of the arterial-venous blood through the capillary, and interaction with the environment …
