Machine Learning for Thermodynamic States of Notional Nonideal Energetic Mixtures

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
. ABSTRACT Currently, modeling the thermodynamic states in the reaction zone of a detonating energetic mixture entails iteratively solving a set of coupled differential equations that require detailed material property information or models whose empirical parameters must be physically measured.

Comparative study of the bronchodilator efficacy and adverse effects of salbutamol and hyoscine butylbromide in horses with severe asthma

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine
Background Salbutamol and hyoscine butylbromide (HBB) are commonly used bronchodilators in horses with severe asthma (SA). Objective To compare the bronchodilation potency, duration, and adverse effects of salbutamol and HBB in SA.

The role of pulmonary intravascular macrophages in the development of heaves in horses [PDF]

, 2008
Heaves is triggered by exposure to dust and its components, such as endotoxin, and is characterized by clinical signs such as coughing, decreased exercise tolerance, difficulty breathing and abnormal lung sounds which are due to bronchoconstriction and ...

Effect of nutritional antioxidant supplementation on systemic and pulmonary antioxidant status, airway inflammation and lung function in heaves-affected horses

, 2002
peer reviewedAn oxidant/antioxidant imbalance in favour of oxidants has been identified as playing a decisive role in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory airway diseases.

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Airway reactivity in ponies with recurrent airway obstruction (heaves)

, 1985
We measured lung function and airway reactivity to histamine administered by aerosol in two groups of ponies. Principal ponies had a history of heaves, a disease characterized by recurrent airway obstruction when ponies are housed in a barn and fed hay;

Examining the Political Dimensions of Sustainability: The Role of Freedom of Expression in Environmental Outcomes

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although significant efforts have been made to prevent environmental degradation, the success of these initiatives has remained limited. The primary reason for this is environmental issues' complex and multidimensional nature. Economic, political, and social dynamics play a central role in shaping environmental problems, necessitating a ...

Composition of the submucosal tissues at histology.

, 2015
Values are presented as percentage of the submucosal tissue occupied by ECM and ASM for each airway. N = 14 for controls and 20 for heaves. On average, a greater percentage of submucosal thickness was occupied by ASM in smaller airways of horses with ...

Analysis of genomic copy number variation in equine recurrent airway obstruction (heaves) [PDF]

, 2016
We explored the involvement of genomic copy number variants (CNVs) in susceptibility to recurrent airway obstruction (RAO), or heaves-an asthmalike inflammatory disease in horses.
