UTCI--why another thermal index?
TL;DR: UTCI is defined as the isothermal air temperature of the reference condition that would elicit the same dynamic response (strain) of the physiological model of thermoregulation for any combination of air temperature, wind, radiation, and humidity (stress).

Thermal comfort: analysis and applications in environmental engineering,
TL;DR: In this paper, an account of research undertaken by the author and his colleagues at the Technical University of Denmark and at the Institute for Environmental Research, Kansas State University is described. But the data in the literature on thermal comfort are extensive, they are disjointed Other CABI sites

Microvascular contributions in tissue heat transfer.
TL;DR: It will be shown that because of the vasculature, and the large rate of blood perfusion, living biological tissues are fundamentally different from inert materials, Consequently, the familiar thermal properties can no longer be assumed to be independent of the parameters of the temperature field.
