DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we analyse the thermal contact resistance probl
 em in a two-dimensional\, periodic\, two-phase medium with arbitrary shape
 d adiabatic fractures. We investigate how the fracture shape and the enclo
 sed area affect the quantitative measure $\\lambda$. Our analysis proceeds
  via a transform approach based on the Unified Transform Method and the so
 lutions for the corresponding temperature fields are obtained in a quasi-a
 nalytical form. A number of example problems involving different fracture 
 shapes are presented. As a check\, our results are compared to exact or ap
 proximate solutions for the cases for which these exist. This is joint wor
 k with Jonathan Marshall (UCL).
