Numerical study of partial differential equations to estimate thermoregulation in human dermal regions for temperature dependent thermal conductivity

The paper deals with the temperature distribution in multi-layered human skin and subcutaneous tissues (SST). The model suggests the solution of parabolic heat equation together with the boundary conditions for the temperature distribution in SST by assuming the thermal conductivity as a function of...
