Geometrical considerations in the control and manipulation of conductive heat flux in multilayered thermal metamaterials

Krishna P. Vemuri and Prabhakar R. Bandaru

We indicate the fundamental rationale underlying the control of temperature and the manipulation of thermal flux, with reference to a multilayered composite material. We show that when the orientation of the layers in the composite is physically rotated with respect to a constant temperature gradi ... [Appl. Phys.
