The role of a building’s thermal properties on pupils’ thermal comfort in junior school classrooms as determined in field studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent thermal comfort research in a light-weight junior school building showed that children were more sensitive to higher temperatures than adults and subsequently that current thermal comfort standards were not appropriate for the assessment of their ...

Effect of Mood States on Thermal Sensation: Cultural and Gender Differences in Türkiye and Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Thermal comfort is a multidimensional phenomenon governed not only by environmental parameters but also by physiological, behavioral, and psychological factors. Within the adaptive framework, while behavioral influences have been extensively studied, the

Automotive Seat Comfort and Vibration Performance Evaluation in Dynamic Settings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
An automotive seat is a key component which not only provides restraint and support for its occupant, but also mitigates vibration. Since an automotive seat is in constant contact with the vehicle occupant, its dynamic comfort is of great importance in ...

Increasing expression of dual-specificity phosphatase 12 mitigates oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation-induced neuronal apoptosis and inflammation through inactivation of the ASK1-JNK/p38 MAPK pathway

open access: yesAutoimmunity
Dual-specificity phosphatase 12 (DUSP12) is abnormally expressed under various pathological conditions and plays a crucial role in the pathological progression of disorders. However, the role of DUSP12 in cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion injury has not yet

How bio-inspired solutions have influenced the built environment design in hot and humid climates

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2023
The rapid increase in the population, which has been concentrated mainly in urban areas, has caused an environmental imbalance over the years since the built environment developed as a foreign element to the ecosystem, which prevents having resilient ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Modeling the circadian dynamics of resting energy expenditure for the built environment [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
. Human Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) exhibits a robust circadian oscillation, yet current thermal comfort standards and building simulations typically rely on static metabolic assumptions.
