Volcanic crop soil physicochemical characterization in semi-arid and temperate climates: two Mexican case studies

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications
In this work, two crop soils were characterized: Querétaro (Bajío) and the State of Mexico (Edomex). Both states are part of the Sierra Madre Occidental, where temperate and subhumid climates are experienced. The surface soils are predominantly Leptosols

Development of a thermal sensor for probing small volumes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis presents the design, fabrication and characterisation of a thermal micro-sensor capable of operating on small scale samples. It was initially characterised by measuring the thermal conductivity of 100 μl liquid droplets and thin materials ...

Effects of contact resistance on thermal-conductivity of composite media with a periodic structure

open access: yes, 1992
The thermal conductivity of periodic composite media with spherical or cylindrical inclusions embedded in a homogeneous matrix is discussed. Using Green functions, we show that the Rayleigh identity can be generalized to deal with thermal properties ot ...

Experimental Investigation of Forced Convection Heat Transfer in Open Cell Copper Fins

open access: yesمجلة النهرين للعلوم الهندسية, 2017
Recently, major part of convection heat transfer researches focus on increasing fins efficiency by increasing thermal performance for the same fin volume. Metal foam is a promising way to achieve this aim.

Study on the energy performance of glazing surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesConstructii: Journal of Civil Engineering Research, 2014
A proper thermal design of the building envelope represents an important factor for the energy economics. Glazing surfaces represent one of the important elements in the hygrothermal design activity of a building envelope.

Procedural elements in estimation of the thermal shock resistance of different types of refractory concrete based on chamotte filler

open access: yes, 2011
A comparative analysis of the thermal shock resistance of refractory concrete based on chamotte filler, such as traditional concrete, traditional concrete modified with the addition of microsilica, and medium-cement concrete, is performed.

Building Envelopes with Controlled Thermal Resistance

open access: yes
Traditionally low energy buildings are supposed to have maximally big thermal resistance of building envelope. In reality big thermal resistance is justified only in coldest winter days in countries with cold climate or in hot summer days with intensive ...

Role of carbon nanotube on the interfacial thermal resistance: A molecular dynamics approach

open access: yes, 2017
Very high thermal conductivity of carbon nanotube (CNT) makes it an obvious choice in electronic cooling applications. But at the nanoscale, these CNTs face a limitation due to the interfacial thermal resistance commonly known as Kapitza resistance ...

Factors affecting the rotational use of insecticides for the management of resistance in mosquitoes [PDF]

open access: yes
The rotation of the use of chemically unrelated insecticides has been advocated to delay the build up of resistance. To examine this concept in the laboratory, Anopheles albimanus and Culex guinquefasciatus were subjected
