Abstract: A two-dimensional model of a simplified configuration of the gelled-pad electrode applied to human tissue was developed. As a consequence of the boundary discontinuity near the edge of the pad, ...

Abstract: The superficial temperature distribution for various types of dispersive electrodes applied to human subjects and a surrogate medium are presented. Typical temperature distributions on the human ...

Abstract: A microcomputer based instrument to measure effective thermal conductivity and diffusivity at the surface of a tissue has been developed. Self-heated spherical thermistors, partially embedded in ...

Abstract: Many medical applications involving lasers rely upon the generation of heat within the tissue for the desired therapeutic effect. Determination of the absorbed light energy in tissue is difficult ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development of a model for predicting the thermal decomposition rates of aviation fuels. A thermal deposition model was incorporated into FLANELS-2D, an existing computational ...
