The present paper discusses the development of a performance model of power generation system of a thermal plant for performance evaluation using Markov technique and probabilistic approach. The study covers two areas: development of a predictive model and evaluation of performance with the help of developed model. The present system of thermal plant under study consists of four subsystems with...

In this article some of the important techniques in electromagnetic (EM) and thermal dosimetry are reviewed. Three major areas are discussed: modeling power deposition and estimation of EM energy absorbed by tissues exposed to EM radiation, electrical-thermal modeling for thermal therapy with various models of heat transfer in living tissues, and thermal dosimetry using invasive and noninvasive...

in this paper, fourteen mt stations along a profile perpendicular to the main geological structure were used in order to identify the geology of sabalan geothermal field including the extension of the surface cap-rock and clay-cap layers. the mt data collected between 1-8192 hz is of useful quality and provides good control on the surface layers in many areas. it means that reliable modeling sh...

Multi-scale model for response of the bi-material “thermostat,” consisting of a single unidirectional lamina of carbon/epoxy and an uncured layer of neat diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) with curing agent, diethyltoluenediamine (DETDA), is developed in order to measure thermal strains during a prescribed, but arbitrary thermal history. Molecular modeling simulations provided the elastic ...

Background: Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a novel tumor ablation technique. IRE is associated with high electrical fields and is often reported in conjunction with thermal damage caused by Joule heating. For good response to surgery it is crucial to produce minimum thermal damage in both tumoral and healthy tissues named Non-Thermal Irreversible Electroporation(NTIRE). Non-thermal irrev...
