A MATLAB package for prototyping integral equation methods in two dimensions. While chunkie is primarily intended as a proto-typing or pedagogical tool, it is designed to be reasonably efficient and ...

In this article, we consider the exponential compensation of an unstable heat equation through a dynamic boundary active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) compensator, which is described by a first ...

Gerontologist Macie P. Smith reveals the health complications seniors may face due to extreme heat, as well as risks to look out for and solutions for caretakers to implement.

The tradition of the siesta is no accident. Spain has been living with extreme heat for centuries, and its people have ways of coping.

Despite high temperature readings this summer, U.S. Army heat experts say heat injury incidents at Fort Benning are on track for record lows. Much of the technology reducing risk for soldiers is ...

Compared with surrounding rural areas, urban locations have higher overall temperatures, especially at night. This is known as the "urban heat island" effect.

This paper presents the Green's function solution of the dual-phase-lag heat equation. The solution is derived for a thin one-dimensional slab heated on one side by a heat flux and cooled on the other ...
