... and the microscopic scales. In this article, a semi-analytical transient temperature model is presented, which can be used at both scales. The general theory is presented here and used to calculate the contact temperatures of single micro- and macrocontacts. For the steady state situation, the results obtained...

...Jun Wen; M. M. Khonsari An analytical approach for treating problems involving oscillatory heat source is presented. The transient temperature profile involving circular, rectangular, and parabolic heat sources undergoing oscillatory motion on a semi-infinite body is determined by integrating...
