The U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine's Advanced Newton Dynamic Instrument thermal manikin is a 35-zone sweating thermal manikin designed to evaluate the thermal performance of clothing systems. By measuring the heat required to maintain a constant surface temperature under controlled environmental conditions, ANDI quantifies clothing thermal resistance (insulation) and evaporative resistance (vapor permeability). At USARIEM, these measurements are used to assess thermal burden and provide clothing property inputs for thermoregulatory models that predict human physiological responses.
