We in this article study nonlinear thermal buckling of bi-directional functionally graded beams in the theoretical frameworks of nonlocal strain graded theory. To begin with, it is assumed that the effective material properties of beams vary continuously in both the thickness and width directions. Then, we utilize a higher-order shear deformation theory that includes a physical neutral surface to derive the size-dependent governing equations combining with the Hamilton's principle and the von $K{\acute{a}}rm{\acute{a}}n$ geometric nonlinearity. It should be pointed out that the established model, containing a nonlocal parameter and a strain gradient length scale parameter, can availably account for both the influence of nonlocal elastic stress field and the influence of strain gradient stress field. Subsequently, via using a easier group of initial asymptotic solutions, the corresponding analytical solution of thermal buckling of beams is obtained with the help of perturbation method. Finally, a parametric study is carried out in detail after validating the present analysis, especially for the effects of a nonlocal parameter, a strain gradient length scale parameter and the ratio of the two on the critical thermal buckling temperature of beams.

In this study, a two-dimensional thermoelastic problem under hyperbolic heat conduction theory with an internal heat source is considered. The general solution for the temperature field, stress components and displacement field are obtained using the reduced differential transform method. The stress and displacement components are obtained using the thermal stress function in the reduced differential transform domain. All the solutions are obtained in the form of power series. The special case with a time-dependent laser heat source has been considered. The problem is considered for homogeneous material with finite rectangular cross-section heated with a non-Gaussian temporal profile. The effect of the heat source on all the characteristics of a material is discussed numerically and graphically for magnesium material taking a pulse duration of 0.2 ps. This study provides a powerful tool for finding the solution to the thermoelastic problem with less computational work as compared to other methods. The result obtained in the study may be useful for the investigation of thermal characteristics in engineering and industrial applications.

Recently there are growing interests on the energy conservation and emission reduction. In the fields of architecture and civil engineering, the energy monitoring of structures is required to response the energy issues. In perspective of thermal monitoring, thermal images gains popularity for their rich visual information. With the rapid development of the drone platform, aerial thermal images acquired using drone can be used to monitor not only a part of structure, but wider coverage. In addition, the stereo photogrammetric process is expected to generate 3D point cloud with thermal information. However thermal images show very poor in resolution with narrow field of view that limit the use of drone-based thermal photogrammety. In the study, we aimed to generate 3D thermal point cloud using visible and thermal images. The visible images show high spatial resolution being able to generate precise and dense point clouds. Then we extract thermal information from thermal images to assign them onto the point clouds by precisely establishing photogrammetric collinearity between the point clouds and thermal images. From the experiment, we successfully generate dense 3D thermal point cloud showing 3D thermal distribution over the building structure.

This paper investigates the effect of dual-phase-lags on a thermoviscoelastic orthotropic solid with a cylindrical cavity. The cylindrical cavity is subjected to a thermal shock varying heat and its material is taken to be of Kelvin-Voigt type. The phase-lag thermoelastic model, Lord and Shulman's model and the coupled thermoelasticity model are employed to study the thermomechanical coupling, thermal and mechanical relaxation (viscous) effects. Numerical solutions for temperature, displacement and thermal stresses are obtained by using the method of Laplace transforms. Numerical results are plotted to illustrate the effect phase-lags, viscoelasticity, and the variability thermal conductivity parameter on the studied fields. The variations of all field quantities in the context of dual-phase-lags and coupled thermoelasticity models follow similar trends while the Lord and Shulman's model may be different. The influence of viscosity parameter and variability of thermal conductivity is very pronounced on temperature and thermal stresses of the thermoviscoelastic solids.

In this paper, we investigate the channel thermal noise in nanoscale MOSFETs. Simple analytical model of thermal noise factor in nanoscale MOSFETs is presented and it is verified with accurately measured noise data. The noise factor is expressed in terms of the channel conductance and the electric field in the gradual channel region. The proposed noise model can predict the channel thermal noise behavior in all operating bias regions from the long-channel to nanoscale MOSFETs. From the measurement results, we observed that the thermal noise model for the long-channel MOSFETs does not always underestimate the short-channel thermal noise.

The Electrical properties of thin $SiO_2$ film by rapid thermal processing have been investigated and this film has been compared with thermal $SiO_2$ film by furnace. The RTO(rapid thermal oxide) film annealed in Ar ambient represent more superior properties than thermal $SiO_2$ film by furnace at breakdown field and leakage current. The RTO(rapid thermal oxide) film annealed in $NH_3$ ambient represent more inferior properties than thermal $SiO_2$ film by furnace at electrical properties, but the capacitance was improved 15-25% than the conventional oxide film.

In order to develop better method to enhance and control the flow and heat transfer inside the radiator of electronic device, the synergistic effect of MHD nanofluids and porous medium on the flow and heat transfer in rectangular opened channel is simulated using Lattice Boltzmann method. Three nanofluids of CuO-water, Al₂O₃-water and Fe₃O₄-water are studied to analyze the influence of the type of nanofluid on the synergistic effect. The simulation results show that the porous medium can increase the flow velocity in fluid zone adjacent to the porous medium and enhance the heat transfer on the surface of the channel. Under no magnetic field, when the porosity of porous medium is 0.8, the Nusselt number is 4.46% higher than when the porosity is 0.9. Al₂O₃-water has the best heat transfer effect among the three nanofluids. At Ф=0.06, Ha=100, θ=90°, ε=0.9, Nu of Al₂O₃-water is 6.51% larger than that of CuO-water and 5.05% larger than that of Fe₃O₄-water. Magnetic field enhances seepage in porous medium and inhibits heat transfer in the bottom wall. When Ha=30 and 60, the inhibiting effect is the most significant as the magnetic field angle is 90°. And when Ha=100, the inhibiting effect is the most significant as the magnetic field angle is 120°.

To examine the effect of thermal discharge from nuclear power plants, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) is one of the most important variables measured by satellite remote sensing. However, the study was not much comparison of field data and satellite SST from operational Landsat 8 Thermal Infrared Sensor(TIRS) and Landsat 7 ETM+. The Landsat 8 TIRS have 2 spilt Thermal Infrared channels but ETM+ uses one channel for extracting of SST. In spite of that this research carried out that Landsat 7 ETM+ have more profitable for correction of SST than Landsat 8 TIRS. The used 15 Landsat 7 and 8 Thermal Infrared data of path/row 114-36 were processed by SST algorithm of ENVI and IDL. The in-situ SST data from KHOA(Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Administration) compared with satellite SST and the accuracy of extracted SST were assessed by each field sites in-situ point data with time series satellite SST.

During supersonic flight of vehicles, the thermal behavior of structures under high-temperature environment is important for thermal-structural design. In this study, full-field thermal deformation and stress concentration of the notched structure was performed using global-local multi-digital image correlation (multi-DIC) systems. This techniques were developed and implemented by multi-DIC systems consists of 2D DIC system and 3D DIC system. The specimen was heated in a heating chamber to achieve the thermal expansion behavior. Then the images of structure's deformation and stress concentration at various temperature were recorded and analyzed by multi-DIC system. Afterward, full-field thermal deformation of the notched structure was determined with DIC technique and stress concentration at the notched structure was calculated by further processing. Finite element analysis of the notched structure is performed in ABAQUS^TM and the results of the experiments show good agreement with those obtained from simulation. The results achieved in this study show the efficiency of the muilti-DIC method in thermal deformation as well as stress concentration of notched structure.

A field soil highly contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons (JP-8 and diesel fuels) was employed for its remediation by a lab-scale thermal desorption process. The soil was collected in the vicinity of an underground storage tank in a closed military base and its contamination level was as high as 4,476 ppm as total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH). A lab scale directly-heated low temperature thermal desorption (LTTD) system of 10-L capacity was developed and operated for the thermal treatment of TPH contaminated soils in this study. The desired operation temperature was found to be approximately $200-300^{\circ}C$ from the thermal gravimetric analysis of the contaminated field soils. The removal efficiencies higher than 90% were achieved by the LTTD treatment at $200^{\circ}C$ for 10 min as well as at $300^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. As the water content in the soils increased and therefore they were likely to be present as lumps, the removal efficiency noticeably decreased, indicating that a pre-treatment such as field drying should be required. The analysis of physical and chemical properties of soils before and after the LTTD treatment demonstrated that no significant changes occurred during the thermal treatment, supporting no needs for additional post-treatments for the soils treated by LTTD. The results presented in this study are expected to provide useful information for the field application and verification of LTTD for the highly contaminated geo-environment.
