Interdependency of Core Temperature and Glabrous Skin Blood Flow in Human Thermoregulation Function: A Pilot Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Human thermoregulation is governed by a complex, nonlinear feedback control system. The system consists of thermoreceptors, a controller, and effector mechanisms for heat exchange that coordinate to maintain a central core ...
Bioheat Transfer Basis of Human Thermoregulation: Principles and Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermoregulation is a process that is essential to the maintenance of life for all warm-blooded mammalian and avian species. It sustains a constant core body temperature in the face of a wide array of environmental thermal ...
A Conformable Two-Dimensional Resistance Temperature Detector for Measuring Average Skin Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermoregulation research and various medical procedures are accomplished by manipulating skin temperature in a nonuniform pattern. Skin temperature monitoring is essential to assess conformance to protocol specifications ...
