Although initially associated with the estimation of boundary heat fluxes by using temperature measurements taken inside a heated body, inverse analyses are nowadays encountered in single and multi-mode heat transfer problems, dealing with multi-scale phenomena. Applications range from the estimation of constant heat transfer parameters to the mapping of spatially and timely varying functions, such as heat sources, fluxes and thermophysical properties. The objective of the Franco-Brazilian Advanced School METTI IV is to promote the theory and application of inverse methods in thermal engineering. This Advanced School is aimed at engineers, graduate students and researchers, working both in the academia and industry. Expected attendance is of one hundred participants. The official language is English. The METTI (Thermal Measurements and Inverse Techniques) Group, a division of the Société Française de Thermique (French Heat Transfer Society), periodically organizes such schools. Previous versions took place in France in 1995, 1999 and 2005. For the first time this school is organized outside France, as an activity of the Year of France in Brazil (http://anodafrancanobrasil.cultura.gov.br/). The School METTI IV is promoted by Société Française de Thermique SFT (http://www.sft.asso.fr) and Associação Brasileira de Engenharia e Ciências Mecânicas ABCM (http://www.abcm.org.br/). The METTI School is organized in theoretical courses and practical hands-on tutorial sessions, covering fundamental and advanced material in inverse problems and measurement techniques, specifically applied to heat transfer problems of practical interest. Courses and tutorial sessions will be jointly given by French and Brazilian internationally recognized specialists in the area. On each day, two theoretical courses will be given sequentially in the morning. The tutorial sessions will be given in the evenings. The practical character limits the number of 20 participants per tutorial session. Therefore, in each evening the School participants will have to select from a list of tutorial sessions that will take place simultaneously. Afternoons will be free for interaction and technical discussions between participants. A Workshop will take place simultaneously with the METTI School. This workshop will be devoted to open problems or new research trends in inverse heat transfer. Papers in this workshop will be presented in poster form.
