Optimization-based design of a heat flux concentrator
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-01)
To gain control over the diffusive heat flux in a given domain, one needs to engineer a thermal metamaterial with a specific distribution of the generally anisotropic thermal conductivity throughout the domain. Until now, ...
Experimental analysis of heat transfer in packed beds with air flow
(2004-07-21)
Heat-transfer studies were carried out in a packed bed of glass beads, cooled by the wall, through which air percolated. Tube-to-particle diameter ratios (D/dp) ranged from 1.8 to 55, while the air mass flux ranged from ...

Spontaneous ignition of wildland fuel by idealized firebrands
(Elsevier, 2018)
The spontaneous ignition of a forest fuel layer by idealized firebrands was carried out experimentally in a bench scale apparatus designed to understand the relationship between the time to ignition and incident radiative ...
Application of a bounded upwinding scheme to complex fluid dynamics problems
(2013-02-01)
This paper is concerned with an overview of upwinding schemes, and further nonlinear applications of a recently introduced high resolution upwind differencing scheme, namely the ADBQUICKEST [V.G. Ferreira, F.A. Kurokawa, ...

Factors controlling plankton community production, export flux, and particulate matter stoichiometry in the coastal upwelling system off Peru
(Copernicus Publications, 2020)
Eastern boundary upwelling systems (EBUS) are among the most productive marine ecosystems on Earth. The production of organic material is fueled by upwelling of nutrient-rich deep waters and high incident light at the sea ...
