Thermal and optical characterization of natural and artificial marble for roof and external floor installations

The thermophysical properties of natural and artificial samples of marble were investigated to determine how the marble would respond to solar irradiation. The thermal conductivity, specific heat and density were all determined experimentally for the marble samples, and the thermal diffusivity was calculated using these properties. It was determined based on the thermal diffusivity values that heat travelled faster through the natural samples than it did through the artificial samples. ...

Thermal Properties and Thermal Modeling of Ballistic Clay Box

In order to test the protective capabilities of body armor, a clay box is placed behind the armor during testing and the penetration depth into the clay is measured after firing. Procedures for the preparation of the Plastilina clay used to make these boxes require that the clay be pre-conditioned in an oven prior to testing. The objectives of this work were to determine if the cooling of the clay ...
