Our research engineers can deliver a fully configured virtual dummy placed into your environment and undergoing an activity level appropriate for both physical exertion and stress level. We can also develop user routines to out a specific effectiveness metric or implement feedback control systems to an engineered environment. The model can also be delivered with full engineering reports and analysis.
Our human thermal simulation predicts the thermal response of humans using virtual dummies in realistic thermal environments -- from any global outdoor location to positions inside buildings, aircraft, ships, or vehicles. Accurate clothing effects and activity level are factored into a transient analysis that results in a comprehensive prediction of the human tissue temperatures and core body temperature.
Thermoregulation based on core brain temperature and localized vascodilatation and vascoconstriction provide validated responses to time-varying heat loads or changing solar position. With plots of body segment and core body temperatures, human effectiveness criteria can be applied.
Our engineering services team has provided such analysis for FAA aircraft certification based on pilot and passenger core body temperatures. Our technologies and engineering experience apply equally well to the design of vehicles, trains, and fire fighter safety equipment.

Our Human Thermal Simulation Module is the state-of-the-art technology for predicting human thermal comfort, safety, and effectiveness. All thermoregulatory responses are supported and based on activity level.
Our human comfort simulation software allows users to place virtual test dummies into environments for computing comfort indices and designing improved clothing, HVAC, or environmental control systems.
Our research engineers can configure a virtual dummy in your environment that is undergoing a stressful, physically exerting activity level. We can also develop user routines to out a specific effectiveness metric or implement feedback control systems to an engineered environment. The model is delivered with full engineering reports and analysis.
Human infrared signature analysis requires the most advanced technologies for predicting the temperatures of human skin, clothing, and the environment around the human. Our combination of software for human thermal simulation and infrared analysis delivers and unparalleled level of control over both factors.
ManikinPC2 software reads the skin temperature distribution of a thermal manikin, nicknamed "Newton," and computes accurate physiological and metabolic responses over time. The software predicts blood flow rates, perspiration rates, and core body temperature. These are translated into wattages that produce a realistic thermal response, complete with a thermal comfort index.
The ThermoAnalytics Human Comfort Module is a collection of user routines and property databases. It simulates the human body's thermal response to environments with significant thermal loads.
The ThermoAnalytics Human Comfort Module is an advanced plug-in for RadTherm and MuSES software. It analyzes the human thermal comfort of virtual test dummies within complex environments: indoor, outdoor, and in transportation systems. Full radiant, convective and conductive heat transfer is accounted for.
