This comprehensive book delves into the intricate realm of thermal cloaking, exploring its fundamental principles through the lens of transformation theory and bilayer theory. It provides a detailed account of thermal cloaking, focusing on both conduction and convection heat transfer modes. By presenting the underlying theoretical foundations in a clear and accessible manner, the authors aim to offer a comprehensive understanding of thermal cloaking from an engineering perspective, with practical applications in mind.

To enhance the reader's comprehension, the authors have placed a strong emphasis on relating the materials to relevant physical phenomena and their interpretation. This approach facilitates a deeper grasp of the subject matter, enabling engineering students to embark on their own research endeavors and explore innovative ideas within the field of thermal cloaking.

While this book cannot serve as a comprehensive reference in the vast domain of thermal cloaking research, it stands as a unique monograph that specifically addresses the theoretical and analytical aspects of thermal cloaking within the outlined scope. Furthermore, it includes numerous independent analytical solutions to thermal cloaking problems that are not readily accessible in the open literature. This book is well-suited for a three-credit graduate or advanced undergraduate course in engineering science.
