Human Thermoregulation: The Science of IcePlate (Cooling/Heating/Hydration for PPE, Body Armor, Plate Carriers, Backpacks, etc.)

Human Thermoregulation: The Science of IcePlate (Cooling/Heating/Hydration for PPE, Body Armor, Plate Carriers, Backpacks, etc.)
One question our enterprise and government customers often ask us is: "Can you send me all of the science/data/research for IcePlate so I can put a presentation together for higher ups/command?" 
We have put these links together in emails so frequently, that we thought it would be helpful to simply assemble them all in one location. If you are tasked with assembling all of the research science behind IcePlate for approval by your company or agency, these articles from our IceAge Insights blog should do the trick!
IcePlate FAQ - this is a very rich resource
The Science of Body Armor Cooling - good data in this one
IcePlate Curve: hidden logistics superpowers - a study in cube space efficiency for life-support logistics 
Heat Injury Prevention Methods - this will be familiar to anyone coming from the infantry, but it is a good reference for everyone
The Physics of IcePlate Curve - how IcePlate Curve improves endurance because it is more efficient to move (moment arm)
The Methods of Heat Transfer - Conduction, Convection, Radiation explained briefly for context 
Customer Testimonial: Using IcePlate in HAZMAT/CBRNE environment  - an awesome perspective authored by one of our customers
How Cooling improve fleet/team efficiency/uptime - business focused, but the principles apply to emergency response capacity too
We hope this compilation is helpful, but don't hesitate to contact us should you have questions that are not answered here.
