Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The severity of the hot and humid conditions to which miners are exposed increases as the depth of the work site increases. This can cause heat stress that can greatly affect the health and safety of workers. To resolve this, a cooling garment has been developed that uses an atmospheric discharge of liquid CO2 to create a cool microclimate with an average temperature of 12.5 (±0.4) °C beneath the garment. To evaluate the garment’s cooling efficiency, 19 male subjects participated in an experimental procedure. The two modes, cooling on and off, were compared. Significant physiological differences were found between the two modes after minute 27 (p < 0.05) until the end of the recovery phase for the heart rate (maximum difference of 10 beats per minute) and the internal body temperature (maximum difference of 0.33 °C). It was found that the modes also affected the subjects’ perceptions. The ON-mode was associated with better well-being and thermal comfort, and reduced humidity sensation. Perceptions of exertion were lower in the ON-mode condition from minute 2. The findings provide strong evidence of the ability of this cooling garment to reduce heat stress in hot and humid conditions similar to those encountered in deep mines.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
