background and objective: lack of sleep (insomnia) is a common problem involving society members and inpa-tients causing different physiological effects. treatment includes a variety of several pharmacologic or other techniques. one of the non-pharmacologic methods is local heating of terminal organs (passive body heating). manipulation of body temperature is a potential therapeutic interventio...

nuclear cross sections that determine core multiplication strongly depend on core temperature (e.g., the doppler, moderator density effects etc). on the other hand, since this heat is generated by the neutron flux in the reactor core, the temperature distribution in the core will depend heavily on its neutronic behavior. fuel centerline temperature could be the limiting constraint on reactor po...

Background & Aims of the Study: Heat Stress is a major factor in many industrials and heat stress is one of occupational hazards in the workplace and severely affects the health and productivity, heat stress can decrease efficiency, increase accidents and reduce safety levels. Aim of this study was comparing the heat stress indices of HSI and WBGT and core body temperature in steels ind...

In this paper, the temperature dependence on optical absorption cross section of the core shell bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) is investigated in quasi static approximation. Temperature dependence of the plasmon resonance is important issue because of recent applications of NPs of noble metal for heat treating of cancer and the computer chips. The effect of temperature on surface plasmon resona...

the compressibility factor of nonassociated chain molecules composed of hard convex core yukawa segments was derived with saft-vr and an extension of the barker-henderson perturbation theory for convex bodies. the temperature-dependent chain and dispersion compressibility factors were derived using the yukawa potential. the effects of temperature, packing fraction, and segment number on the com...

conclusions the present study was the first research, in which rectum temperature was compared with that of skin over carotid artery, to find a safe location with easier access and higher accuracy for estimating near core body temperature. results obtained in this study showed that, using a model, it is possible to evaluate near core body temperature in children, by measuring skin temperature o...
