Skin temperature, sleep, and vigilance [PDF]
A large number of studies have shown a close association between the 24-hour rhythms in core body temperature and sleep propensity. More recently, studies have have begun to elucidate an intriguing association of sleep with skin temperature as well. The present chapter addresses the association of sleep and alertness with skin temperature. It discusses

Skin friction and heat transfer in hypersonic transitional and turbulent boundary layers [PDF]
The decompositions of the skin-friction and heat transfer coefficients based on the two-fold repeated integration in hypersonic transitional and turbulent boundary layers are analyzed to explain the generations of the wall skin friction and heat transfer.
