A method of evaluating the accuracy of human body thermoregulation models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Human Body Thermoregulation Models have been widely used in the field of human physiology or thermal comfort studies. However there are few studies on the evaluation method for these models.

When water interacts with temperature: Ecological and evolutionary implications of thermo‐hydroregulation in terrestrial ectotherms

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
The regulation of body temperature (thermoregulation) and of water balance (defined here as hydroregulation) are key processes underlying ecological and evolutionary responses to climate fluctuations in wild animal populations.

Temperature Controlled and Monitored Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion System for Research and Training Purposes

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2019
Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is a preservation method for donor lungs, which keep lungs viable in a physiological environment outside of a body for a short period of time. EVLP is established clinically for lung transplantation.

ESR Spectrometry of High-Temperature Superconductors with Temperature-Modulation-Based Thermoregulation [PDF]

open access: yesInstruments and Techniques, Vol.39, No.5, 1996, p.769, 1998
A light-beam-assisted temperature-control system operating within a temperature range from 77 to 180 K is developed for investigating the absorption of electromagnetic waves by high-temperature superconductors in the vicinity of superconducting transition with an ESR spectrometer.

Effect of temperature on body temperature and resting metabolic rate in pups of Eothenomys miletus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2013
In order to investigate the ability of ambient temperature and thermoregulation in Eothenomys miletus, body temperature and resting metabolic rate (RMR) were measured during postnatal development (1-49 day) when E.

Turn it off and on again: characteristics and control of torpor [version 1; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations, 1 not approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2021
Torpor is a hypothermic, hypoactive, hypometabolic state entered into by a wide range of animals in response to environmental challenge. This review summarises the current understanding of torpor.

Radiative Cooling and Thermoregulation of Vertical Facades with Micropatterned Directional Emitters [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
We demonstrate a micropatterned directional emitter ({\mu}DE) with an ultrabroadband, azimuthally selective and tailorable emittance across the thermal wavelengths and over wide angles. The {\mu}DE can enable a novel and passive seasonal thermoregulation of buildings by reducing summertime terrestrial radiative heat gain, and wintertime loss.

The Turing Pattern Transition with the Growing Domain and Metabolic Rate Effects [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
This study examines how patterns on mammal body surfaces change as they transition from juveniles to adults and with seasonal variations. Our previous research suggests that patterns formed in infancy may fade due to the growing domain effects, typically linked to the body's surface expanding as it grows, but this transition is influenced by various ...

American coot collective on-water dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes2013 Nonlinear Dynamics, Psychology, and Life Sciences, Vol. 17, No. 2, pp. 183-203, 2012
American coot (Fulica americana) flocks exhibit water surface (two-dimensional) collective dynamics that oscillate between two primary phases: a disordered phase of low density and non-uniform coot body orientations; a synchronized phase characterized by high density, uniform body orientations and speed.

The exercise sex gap and the impact of the estrous cycle on exercise performance in mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Exercise physiology is different in males and females. Females are poorly studied due to the complexity of the estrous cycle and this bias has created an exercise sex gap.
