Thermoregulation in an encapsulated environment : reducing thermoregulatory strain experienced by warfighters when wearing fully encapsulating protective clothing with additional investigations of thermoregulatory control

Operating in a hot environment when wearing clothing that is moisture vapour restrictive and thermally insulative, such as chemical and biological (CB) protective equipment, places a thermal burden on the wearer. The first two experiments addressed the general aim of this thesis, which was to quanti...
