This paper examines numerically and theoretically the application of truncated Singular
Value Decomposition (SVD) in a sequential form. The Sequential SVD algorithm presents …

In this paper an efficient sequential method is developed in order to estimate the unknown
boundary condition on the surface of a body from transient temperature measurements …

Xonotlite-type calcium silicate hydrate slabs were examined under the thermal shock
conditions in a solar furnace at the Plataforma Solar de Almeria which can reach a peak of …

Resolving inverse heat conduction problems (IHCPs) based on interior measured
temperatures is a reliable approach for aerodynamic heat prediction. In most IHCP studies, it …

This study presents an investigation of the calibration and testing of a stainless steel plug-
type gauge that utilizes temperature data from its two in-depth thermocouples (TCs) to …

This study presents an investigation of the calibration of a plate sensor for determination of
the total surface heat transfer into a stainless steel plate with a spatially variable heat flux …

This dissertation outlines the design, fabrication, calibration and testing of sensors that can
be used to measure surface heat flux, surface temperature and total surface heat transfer …
