Numerous mathematical models have been developed for thermal diffusion through single-layer materials, while further developments are needed for multi-layer materials. Diffusion processes through a multilayer material are of interest in industrial, applied thermodynamics, physics, electrical and civil engineering applications. The proposed scheme is easily applicable in various fields, demonstrating that Finite Different Methods (FDMs) are flexible, simple to implement and help to represent multilayer materials even without associating them with other numerical methods. The numerical method studied is a FDM in a civil engineering application. Through the study of a multilayer wall, its criticalities are highlighted, and a possible implementation is proposed.

Abstract
Numerous mathematical models have been developed for thermal diffusion through single-layer materials, while further developments are needed for multi-layer materials. Diffusion processes through a multilayer material are of interest in industrial, applied thermodynamics, physics, electrical and civil engineering applications. The proposed scheme is easily applicable in various fields, demonstrating that Finite Different Methods (FDMs) are flexible, simple to implement and help to represent multilayer materials even without associating them with other numerical methods. The numerical method studied is a FDM in a civil engineering application. Through the study of a multilayer wall, its criticalities are highlighted, and a possible implementation is proposed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
