Comparison and validation of heat stress indices in experimental studies / Philippe Mairiaux and Jacques Malchaire

Sumario: The present review aims at presenting a critical assessment of , the methodology suggested in order to adapt the heat stress indices to fluctuating ambient conditions, the various proposals made by several research teams for improving the prediction ability of the procedure specified in the ISO DIS 7933 "Hot environments -analytical determination and interpretation of thermal stress using calculation of required sweat rates"
