Coal spontaneous combustion often wastes resources and causes environmental pollution.
Rapid and accurate identification of high temperature areas in coal is essential to reducing …

The dependent scattering effect (DSE), which arises from the wave nature of
electromagnetic radiation, is a critical mechanism affecting the radiative properties of …

This research deals with the ultrasonic characterization of thermal damage in concrete. This
damage leads to the appearance of microcracks which then evolve in terms of volume rate …

Several non-destructive evaluation techniques to characterize concrete structures are based
on ultrasonic wave propagation. The interpretation of the results is often limited by the …

Understanding radiative transfer in random media like micro-or nanoporous and particulate
materials, allows people to manipulate the scattering and absorption of radiation, as well as …

In the present work we deal with the scattering dispersion and attenuation of elastic waves in
different types of nonhomogeneous media. The iterative effective medium approximation …

Microchannel heat transfer governs the performance of the microchannel heat sink, which is
a recent technology aimed at managing the stringent thermal requirements of today's high …

We formally deduce closed-form expressions for the transmitted effective wavenumber of a
material comprising multiple types of inclusions or particles (multi-species), dispersed in a …

Effects of multiple and dependent or correlated elastic scattering of phonons due to
nanoparticles on thermal transport in random nano-particulate media (random phononic …

This study compares ultrasonic wave propagation modeling and experimental data in
concrete. As a consequence of its composition and manufacturing process, this material has …
