Restoration of natural thermal sensation in upper-limb amputees

Science, 2023
The use of hands for gathering rich sensory information is essential for proper interaction with the environment; therefore, the restoration of sensation is critical for reestablishing the sense of embodiment in hand amputees.

Facial skin temperature and overall thermal sensation of sub-tropically acclimated Chinese subjects in summer.

Journal of Thermal Biology, 2023
This study explored the facial skin temperature and thermal sensation of sub-tropically acclimated subjects in summer. We conducted a summer experiment that simulated the common indoor temperatures in Changsha, China.

Evaluation of individual thermal sensation at raised indoor temperatures based on skin temperature

Building and Environment, 2021
In this study, we further investigate whether skin temperature can also assess individual thermal sensation as an effective physiological index while previous studies did not draw broadly generalizable conclusions at high temperature.

Psychological adaptation to thermal environments and its effects on thermal sensation.

Physiology and Behavior, 2022
Psychological adaptation to thermal environments might play an important role in the human thermal comfort. However, effects of psychological thermal adaptation on thermal comfort have been rarely studied. To investigate building occupants' psychological

Facial skin temperature and its relationship with overall thermal sensation during winter in Changsha, China.

Indoor Air: International Journal of Indoor Environment and Health, 2022
Facial skin temperature has been applied to evaluate thermal comfort in a few studies, but the related theoretical basis is not sufficient. We conducted a climate-controlled experiment in winter.

Sensitivity analysis of the effect of current mood states on the thermal sensation in educational buildings.

Indoor Air: International Journal of Indoor Environment and Health, 2022
Adaptive thermal comfort is a model which considers behavioral and psychological adjustments apart from Fanger's Predicted Mean Vote (PMV)/Percentage of Dissatisfied (PPD) method. In the literature, the differences between the PMV/PPD method and adaptive

The role of blue and green infrastructure in thermal sensation in public urban areas: A case study of summer days in four Czech cities

, 2021
Thermal comfort in public spaces, as an important factor in the quality of life, has been strongly affected by manifestations of climate change. City authorities are under pressure to adapt their approaches to the urban environment.

Investigation of students' short-term memory performance and thermal sensation with heart rate variability under different environments in summer

, 2021
An increase in temperature and change of correlated color temperature (CCT) would affect cognitive performance and human physiology. Moreover, the effect of CCT on thermal sensation at different temperatures is controversial and needs to be further ...

Evaluation of the feasibility of using skin temperature to predict overall thermal sensation in non-uniform thermal environments.

Journal of Thermal Biology, 2022
Skin temperature is an important physiological parameter that reflects human thermal sensation. However, it is uncertain whether it can evaluate overall thermal sensation in non-uniform thermal environments.
