In de i ing he mold model, we conside edas compu a ional domain he mold pla es only and we o mula ed a h ee

In his uns eady-s a e se ing, we used a sequen ial app oach o he in e se p oblem. In ac , o p o ide a eal- ime

In his amewo k, we s a ed wo no el o mula ions o he bounda y hea lux es ima ion p oblem. One looking o

Fo bo h hese in e se p oblems, we de eloped no el me hodologies o hei solu ion ha exploi a RBFs pa ame-
