Analytical Contact Models

Analytical Contact Model is a theoretical framework that mathematically describes the thermal interaction between contacting surfaces by solving governing heat conduction equations with prescribed interface conditions, distinguished from empirical or numerical approaches by its reliance on closed-form analytical solutions to predict thermal contact resistance.
