American Innovators Highlights our ANDI Manikin at Arizona State University

A recent episode of “Made in America: American Innovators” showcased the vital heat research happening at Arizona State University to reduce heat-related injuries and deaths.   And featured prominently was none other than our very own ANDI thermal manikin.     Come take a look at how one of the top-ranked universities in pursuit of […]

MSN Celebrates Nike’s 50th Anniversary and our Liz Manikin

Better sports bras, anyone? Nike thinks so.   Quoted in a recent MSN feature, Nike credited our Liz Thermal Manikin in their development of more size-inclusive and performance-optimized sports bras for women.   (The team at Nike calls her Haley, but we’re hooked on the original Liz moniker!)   Read the MSN article here.   […]

Newton’s ManikinPC physiological (Human Comfort) software update

ManikinPC (Manikin Physiology Control and Predictive Comfort) software is a closed-loop feedback control system for Newton thermal manikins that accurately mimics the human thermoregulatory system and provides metrics for comfort and sensation.  In fact, any level of activity can be input and appropriate metabolic wattages will be imposed onto the manikin. At the core of […]

If you’re ever in the neighborhood…

Fisherman’s Terminal (located on Salmon Bay in the Interbay neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, just east of the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks and immediately west of the Ballard Bridge) was officially established in 1914 by the Port of Seattle as the home port for the North Pacific Fishing Fleet – which nowadays includes some of the […]

Manikin Whisperers

There are “dog people”, and there are “cat people”.  You know who they are.  You might even be one.  But did you know that there are also “manikin people”?  It’s true that our thermal manikins warm up to and work well with everyone, but some people seem to make a special connection – an immediate, unspoken bond.  A manikin whisperer, […]

HVAC Development Roadmap: Aligning Your Simulation and Measurement Tools

As the transportation industry moves to higher levels of electrification and incorporates more sophisticated cabin climate control systems, tools to develop and validate performance must follow suit.  Energy efficiency and occupant thermal comfort have risen to the level of importance previously reserved for cabin temperature. A recent post by ThermoAnalytics, our Calumet, MI colleagues, “Solving for […]

Manikin Dream Vacation

As we all know, it’s exhausting to be “on” all the time. Thermetrics manikins agree wholeheartedly with that sentiment! It’s hard being a manikin. There’s the constant demand of paying attention to every detail… the challenge of translating objective sensor data into what humans call “feelings”… the cheerful willingness to be uncomfortable so that others […]

Thermetrics Dynamic Hotplate System Generates Instantaneous Surface Heat-flux Measurements

A traditional sweating guarded hotplate, also known as a “skin model”, is designed to produce accurate, repeatable measurements of the thermal resistance (Rct) and vapor permeability (Ret) of textiles when tested under steady-state conditions. Traditional hotplates run into problems when used to test the performance of textiles in conditions that are NOT steady-state. Thermetrics new […]
