the effect of partial slip and temperature dependent fluid properties on the mhd mixed convection flow from a heated, non-linearly stretching surface in the presence of radiation and non-uniform internal heat generation/absorption is investigated. the velocity of the stretching surface was assumed to vary according to power-law form. thermal transport is analyzed for two types of non-isothermal...

Abstract. In this paper we present a model for computing thermal stress inside a crystal with facets. Using a systematical perturbation analysis, a semi-analytical thermal stress solution is obtained for constrained directional growth with small lateral heat flux. Our solution can be applied to crystals grown by various growth techniques such as the Czochralski method. The semianalytical nature...

A thermal stress range analysis of tungsten-rhenium thin film thermocouples based on ceramic substrates is presented to analyze the falling off and breakage problems caused by the mismatch of the thermal stresses in thin film thermocouples (TFTCs) and substrate, and nano-indentation experiments are done to measure and calculate the film stress to compare with the simulation results. Optimal des...

A critical review of the literature provides the basis for an analysis of the effects of thermal stress on human performance. Research in this area to date reflects a wide divergence of opinion regarding the magnitude, direction and significance of performance changes occurring under conditions of high temperature, humidity, solar radiation, etc. An attempt to resolve major conflicts in experim...
