A comparison of Lotens foot model and data from subjects: the use of boot insulation measured with thermal foot model in calculations

A model for foot skin temperature prediction was evaluated on the basis of an experiment on subjects at -10.7 °C (light seated manual work) with winter boots. Insulation of the footwear was measured on a thermal foot model. The predicted temperature stayed higher for the whole exposure period and the difference between the predicted and the measured foot skin temperatures grew proportionally with

Kinematically-equivalent but geomechanically-different simulations of fault evolution: the role of loading configurations

Geomechanical simulations are used to demonstrate the importance of the way that models are loaded. In this paper the development of permanent damage during faulting using frictional-slip models of a reverse fault is investigated. Although the use of different loads and constraints can produce the same faulted geometry (for the same rock type, and at the same burial depth), the models develop very

Obtaining Psychological Spaces with MDS - a pilot study with Perceptual stimuli

The main purpose of this paper is to describe how a psychologically motivated conceptual space can be obtainded with MDS (Multidimensional scaling) and how it can be expressed in terms of a more primitive "physical" (or mathematical) one. The idea is demonstrated practically with the aid of two experimental pilot studies. The paper is concluded by a critical discussion of the method used

Transient waves from internal sources in non-stationary media - Numerical implementation

In this paper, the focus is on numerical results from calculations of scattered direct waves, originating from internal sources in non-stationary, dispersive, stratified media. The mathematical starting point is a general, inhomogeneous, linear, first order, 2 × 2 system of equations. Particular solutions are obtained, as integrals of waves from point sources distributed inside the scattering medi
