Resultant clothing insulation : a function of body movement, posture, wind, clothing fit and ensemble thickness / G. Havenith, R. Heus and W.A. Lotens

Sumario: The purpose of the present study is to extend the database of the effects of body posture, movement and wind on clothing insulation with data obtained on one group of subjects, with the same clothing ensembles, using a number of combinations of posture and body movements with wind. Furthermore, the effect of clothing fit is investigated, and an attempt is made to combine the present results with those from the literature, resulting in a generalized quantitative description of the various effects on clothing insulation
