Experimental study of the effectiveness of air curtains of variable width and injection angle to block fire-induced smoke in a tunnel configuration [PDF]
, 2018 Small-scale experiments have been conducted to study the sealing effect of an air curtain for fire-induced smoke confinement in a tunnel configuration. The processed data confirmed the results obtained earlier from blind Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy
Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...
