Thermite combustion: Current trends in modeling and future perspectives by Alain Esteve, Carole Rossi

“…The reason is the insufficient knowledge and quantification of reaction and combustion mechanisms and the key variables governing them. That is why, over the past decades, several approaches and models ranging from atomic-scale modeling to macroscopic simulations using computational fluid dynamics, were developed and are reviewed in this article. …”

Thermal Conductivity Model Analysis of Unsaturated Ice-Containing Soil by Qiang Han, Zhiguo Wang, Rui Qin

“…In this paper, the representative elementary volume (REV) selection method is given for unsaturated ice-containing soil with porosity as a representative state variable. Under the condition of freeze-thaw, two thermal conductivity REV analysis models for unsaturated ice-containing soil are established: a simplified volume-weighted average REV model and a fine volume-weighted average REV model; accordingly, a macroscopic thermal conductivity analysis model is given. …”
