Abstract: This paper investigates some of the numerical problems involved in simulating heat transfer in porous media in the presence of phase change. Applications of this type of simulation include ...

Abstract: The burn process resulting from the application of a hot, cylindrical source to the skin surface was modeled using the finite element technique. A rotationally symmetric 125-element mesh was ...

Abstract: The purpose of this work is to validate, using numerical, finite element methods, the thermal assumptions made in the analytical analysis of a coupled thermistor probe-tissue model upon which ...

Abstract: A finite element model of the bioheat transfer equation has been developed to simulate the temperature distribution in the head of a subhuman primate. Simulations were made of the induction ...
