Background We are undertaking a multicentre randomised controlled trial to determine the effectiveness of including a sleep study (polysomnography (PSG)) to assist the commencement of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in people with motor neurone disease ...

Spectral Properties of Holstein and Breathing Polarons
We calculate the spectral properties of the one-dimensional Holstein and breathing polarons using the self-consistent Born approximation. The Holstein model electron-phonon coupling is momentum independent while the breathing coupling increases ...

Integrated breathing and relaxation training (the Papworth method) for adults with asthma in primary care: a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background: An integrated breathing and relaxation technique known as the Papworth method has been implemented by physiotherapists since the 1960s for patients with asthma and dysfunctional breathing, but no controlled trials have been reported.

Flow in New Zealand high-performance athletes and their intentions to use regulated breathing : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Psychology at Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand [PDF]
Flow, or being “in the zone” (Jackson & Csikszentmihalyi, 1999, p. 12), is associated with athletes’ best-perceived performance (Jackson, Thomas, Marsh, & Smethurst, 2001).

Problems of lamella flanges in steel bridge construction [PDF]
As the plate elements of ordinary lamella flanges always exhibit unavoidable initial geometrical imperfections, a gap always occurs between them, into which the loaded lamella is pressed under load. Given the fact that the loading is many times repeated,

Quantum Breathing Mode of Interacting Particles in a One-dimensional Harmonic Trap
Extending our previous work, we explore the breathing mode---the [uniform] radial expansion and contraction of a spatially confined system. We study the breathing mode across the transition from the ideal quantum to the classical regime and confirm that ...
