Q4:Use Comsol 4.3 to model the steady state heat transfer through a plate which has the same outside dimensions as your truss system. At the location (edge) where the distributed load is applied, apply a temperature of 600 K. At the location (edge) where T appears, apply a temperature of 293.15 K. All other exposed edges are thermally insulated. Determine the temperature in the plate at the coordinates here the joints of truss system were located.
Is that the view today or can you give an alternate theory
: Early in this century the prevailing view of how land animals migrated across vast expanses of ocean was that they floated on a raft of logs (driftwood). Is that the view today, or can you give an alternate theory? Horses, mastodons, and camel.
