How tsunamis occur. As one plate subducts below another (moves underneath)‚ pressure builds for many years resulting in a section of the mega-thrust giving away. As this section gives away‚ it ruptures the ocean floor‚ resulting in a massive displacement of water‚ causing a tsunami. Tsunamis are barely felt as a ripple on the ocean’s surface‚ but as the waves reach land‚ they increase in size as the water becomes shallower.

Thermal insulation materials are specifically designed to reduce the heat flow by limiting heat conduction‚ convection‚ radiation or all three while performing one or more of the following functions: The main function of insulation is to reduce the heat transfer‚ the insulation material must have the appropriate characteristic to slow down the transport of heat occurred by conduction‚ convection and radiation. Conduction loss in insulation is negligible. There are three general material types into

absence of external driving fluxes‚ temperature differences disappear over time‚ and the body approaches thermal equilibrium. During conduction‚ the heat flows through the body itself‚ as opposed to its transfer by the bulk motion of the matter as in convection‚ and by thermal radiation. In solids‚ it is due to the combination of vibrations of the molecules in a lattice or phonons and diffusion of free electrons. In gases and liquids‚ conduction is due to the collisions and diffusion of the molecules during
