The effect of wall thermal capacity and thermal resistance in the energy efficiency of small office
(AshraeDoha, Qatar, 2014-02-24)
Historically, many ancient civilizations erected buildings that happened to have high thermal inertia. In places with high daily amplitude of air temperature and intense solar radiation, buildings made of heavy elements ...
Effect of thermal conditioning during embryonic development on aspects of physiological responses of broilers to heat stress
(Elsevier B.V., 2003-02-01)
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of thermal conditioning, (through exposure to heat stress), during pre-hatch development on some physiological responses of post-hatch broilers to a post-natal ...
From thermal boredom to thermal pleasure: a brief literature review

Thermal history and comfort in a Brazilian subtropical climate: a ‘cool’ addiction hypothesis
(ANTAC - Associação Nacional de Tecnologia do Ambiente Construído, 2015)
Estudo de casos sobre a inércia térmica de edificações na cidade de São Carlos.
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosBRUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Civil - PPGECiv, 2004-04-20)
In this work, it was investigated the use of thermal inertia in buildings located in Sao Carlos city, SP, which presents semi-humid climate. This research aims to verify the hypothesis that the use of thermal inertia in ...
The influence of thermal comfort conditions on user’s exposure time in open spaces
(2019-01-01)
This paper discusses the influence of the user thermal comfort conditions on the time spent in open spaces through a case study performed in Bauru, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The study was carried out in two subspaces of a zoo, ...
Beyond a single temperature threshold: applying a cumulative thermal stress framework to plant heat tolerance
(2023)
Most plant thermal tolerance studies focus on single critical thresholds, which are arbitrary and phenomenological, limiting the generality of findings across studies. In animals and microbes, thermal tolerance landscapes ...
The effect of timing of thermal conditioning during incubation on embryo physiological parameters and its relationship to thermotolerance in adult broiler chickens
(Elsevier B.V., 2004-01-01)
Previously, we reported that thermal conditioning at 39degreesC on days 13-17 of incubation of broiler eggs enabled thermotolerance during post-hatch growth (J. Therm. Biol. 28 (2003) 133). Tolerance to a temperature of ...
Estimating Functional and Physical Service Life of Timber Buildings Concerning Thermal Performance Simulations
(MDPI, 2022)
Currently, the cities in southern region of Chile present extremely high levels of atmospheric pollution. One of the main reasons for that is the adoption of inadequate thermal envelopes, which are not adapted to the ...
