Dynamic Air Exchange Prosthesis: Effects on Heat Transfer and Limb Adherence for Active Lower Limb Amputees
… polymer with a fabric outer layer and have thermally insulating properties. Lack of liner breathability and permeability also causes disproportionate amounts of moisture to pool against the skin. A novel new Dynamic Air Exchange (DAE) socket, being evaluated for this study, uses a small …

Clothing Evaporative Resistance: Its Measurements and Application in Prediction of Heat Strain
… the modelling and for standards dealing with thermal comfort and heat stress. It might be determined on guarded hotplates, on sweating manikins or even on human subjects. Previous studies have demonstrated that the thermal manikin is the most ideal instrument for testing clothing evaporative …

Development of an ‘artificial human’ for clothing research
… body, and hence, has the primary im-pact on thermal comfort, physiological response of the human body and environmental strain. On the other hand, the clothing microenvironment is affected by physiological reactions (sweating, temperature distribution, body movement). Nowadays, thermal …

Determination of Clothing Evaporative Resistance for - Thermo-Physiology Modelling using a Thermal Mannequin
Globálne otepľovanie a klimatické zmeny sú aktuálne jednou z najdiskutovanejších tém na svete. Keďže začíname vidieť jasné známky klimatických zmien, je nutné sa čoraz viac zaoberať ochranou ľudského zdravia pred tepelnou záťažou aj na miestach sveta, kde táto téma nebola v minulosti aktuálna. …
