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

Carbon stars in local group dwarf galaxies: C and O abundances

We present abundances of carbon and oxygen as well as abundance ratios 12C/13C for a sample of carbon stars in the LMC, SMC, Carina, Sculptor and Fornax dwarf galaxies. The overall metallicities in these dwarf galaxies are lower than in the galactic disc. The observations cover most of the AGB and we discuss the abundance patterns in different regions along the AGB. The abundances are determined f

Investigation of the Effects of Leaching on the Scaling Resistance of Concrete

Damage to the concrete surface can be observed at the waterline of hydraulic structures in fresh water bodies in cold climates. Gradual deterioration of the concrete surface leads to exposure of coarse aggregate. Superficial damage at the waterline is commonly assumed to be caused by drifting ice floes. However, deterioration of concrete at the waterline may also involve leaching and frost action.
