The purpose of this study is to investigate the engineering mechanical properties of granite after various heating/cooling treatments through laboratory investigation. Granite specimens were heated at different temperatures (25, 200, 400, 500, 600, and 800 °C) and cooled by two methods (natural cooling and water cooling) to investigate the change patterns of engineering mechanical properties of granite materials after heating/cooling treatments, including surface hardness, uniaxial compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, peak strain, and point load strength. The damage mechanisms of granite under different heating/cooling treatments were also revealed. Finally, the correlation between uniaxial compressive strength, point load strength, and surface hardness were analyzed by linear and nonlinear fitting methods. The results showed that the strength index of granite can be well evaluated by the hardness index, which has important engineering significance.

The ubiquity of microplastics (MP) in aquatic environments has been raising concerns. Although the μ-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (μ-FTIR) technique is commonly used to detect MPs, it is an expensive and time-consuming process that requires expert operation. Moreover, the mass concentration of MPs cannot be determined, thereby necessitating the development of an inexpensive and simple analytical technique for identifying and quantifying MPs in aquatic environments using thermal-based technologies.

We present a physics-based, temperature and state-dependent electrical conductivity model for soft biological tissue under thermal therapies with a quantified damage parameter that represents the state of soft biological tissue (degree of denaturation). Most existing models consider electrical conductivity to be only temperature-dependent and evaluate tissue damage during post-processing after temperature calculation. Our model allows tissue damage to be coupled into the thermal model for a more accurate description of both RF ablation and electrosurgery.

Investigating the coupling effects of temperature levels and heating-water cooling cycles on the physical and mechanical responses of HDR (hot dry rock) is a vital issue during the exploitation of geothermal energy. In this study, the physical properties of granite specimens were measured first after each heating and water-cooling cycle. Then, uniaxial compressive tests were conducted on those granites to obtain their mechanical properties.

The need for eco-friendly cooling materials and material recycling are two urgent challenges to address. In this paper, the role of the ground tyre rubber treatment (cryo-grinding and devulcanization) is investigated on the tensile and elastocaloric properties of Natural rubber (NR)/ ground tyre rubber (GTR). The GTR particles that are sieved (<63µm) and devulcanized by microwave irradiation (1 min at 800Watts) exhibit a low network chain density (0.
