The Universal Thermal Climate Index UTCI provides an assessment of the outdoor thermal environment in bio-meteorological applications based on the equivalence of the dynamic physiological response predicted by a model of human thermoregulation, which was coupled with a state-of-the-art clothing model. The operational procedure, which is available as software from the UTCI website (www.utci.org)...

فضای باز مدارس ازجمله فضاهای مهم آن‌ها و محل فعالیت‌هایی چون بازی آموزش است دانش‌آموزان مهارت‌های تحصیلی، محیطی، اجتماعی را در آن می‌آموزند، بنابراین باید تابع مشخصاتی خاص پاسخ‌گوی همۀ نیازهای باشد. اینکه آسایش حرارتی از اساسی‌ترین نیاز برای حضور حیاط است، تأمین ضروری می‌نمایاند. تعیین محدودۀ امری پیچیده مشابه، بسته به تنوع افراد، تجربیات، انتظارات، فرهنگ، سن، جنسیت آن‌ها، متفاوت است. پژوهش حاض...

the universal thermal climate index (utci) addresses these shortcomings by using an advanced thermo-physiological model. the aim of this study was to investigate and prepare zoning of thermal comfort condition using utci. meteorological data including temperature, wind speed, cloudiness and relative humidity were obtained on a daily time scale from 10 synoptic stations during (2004-2013) period...

The aim of this study is to identify the most effective thermal predictor of heat-related very-elderly mortality in two cities located in different geographical contexts of central Italy. We tested the hypothesis that use of the state-of-the-art rational thermal indices, the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI), might provide an improvement in predicting heat-related mortality with respect to...

the assessment of the thermal bioclimate is based on the human energy balance and derived indices such as Physiologically equivalent temperature (Pet) or Universal thermal Climate index (UtCi). these two indices were compared over a period of ten year based on hourly data in a middle european city with a temperate climate. the analysis performed shows that the differences obtained result from t...
