considering a temperature dependent two-level quantum system, we have numerically solved the landau-zener transition problem. the method includes the incorporation of temperature effect as a thermal noise added schrödinger equation for the construction of the hamiltonian. here, the obtained results which describe the changes in the system including the quantum states and the transition probabil...

in this work a numerical study of thermal and fluid dynamics behavior of natural air convection in a square cavity in a laminar flow is presented, by finite volume method. the square cavity has two walls heated with different temperatures and two isolated walls. the numerical simulation is made up of several rayleigh numbers to . flow and isotherm lines are presented and analyzed. the numerical...

The thermal cyclic behavior of self-healing barrier coatings (SH-TBC) is analyzed numerically to develop a lifetime prediction model. Representative microstructures are studied adopting unit cell based multiscale modeling approach along with simplified evolution model for the thermally-grown oxide layer (TGO) study damage and healing in TBC system. fracture process modeled using cohesive zone-b...

A simplified approach is introduced to describe the thermal behavior of a thin metal film exposed to picoseconds thermal pulses. The approach is based on the assumption that the metal film thermal behavior occurs in two separate stages. In the first stage, electron gas transmits its energy to the solid lattice through electron-phonon coupling and other mechanisms of energy transport are negligi...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was determine the chemical composition and thermal behavior of Thermafil (TH), Microseal Cone (MC), Microseal Microflow (MF), Obtura (OB) and Obtura Flow (OF). In addition, their thermal behavior in response to temperature variations was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to determine the temperature at which gutta-percha switches from the beta to...

This work represents a complete study of GaN annealed in H2, HCl, NH3 and N2. The GaN thermal behavior was evaluated by comparison of MOCVD and HVPE samples. The MOCVD films were found to obey a dissociative sublimation mechanism with only gaseous species forming, while the HVPE films reacted with ambient gases to form condensed Ga in addition to the gaseous species. Differences in crystal qual...

We demonstrate the role of the proximity effect in the thermal hysteresis of superconducting constrictions. From the analysis of successive thermal instabilities in the transport characteristics of micron-size superconducting quantum interference devices with a well-controlled geometry, we obtain a complete picture of the different thermal regimes. These determine whether or not the junctions a...

We studied the phononic heat transfer through an atomic dielectric wire with both infinite and finite lengths by using a model Hamiltonian approach. At low temperature under ballistic transport, the thermal conductance contributed by each phonon branch of a uniform and harmonic chain cannot exceed the well-known value which depends linearly on temperature but is material independent. We predict...
