Holding chambers (spacers) versus nebulisers for beta-agonist treatment of acute asthma [PDF]
Background In acute asthma inhaled beta₂-agonists are often administered by nebuliser to relieve bronchospasm, but some have argued that metered-dose inhalers with a holding chamber (spacer) can be equally effective.

Self Organizing Nebulous Growths for Robust and Incremental Data Visualization [PDF]
Non-parametric dimensionality reduction techniques, such as t-SNE and UMAP, are proficient in providing visualizations for datasets of fixed sizes. However, they cannot incrementally map and insert new data points into an already provided data visualization.

Theoretical analysis on droplet vaporization at elevated temperatures and pressures [PDF]
Droplet vaporization has a great impact on combustion of liquid fuels and might greatly affects the engine performance. Physical understanding and theoretical interpretation of the droplet vaporization behavior are decisive to constitute appropriate models for spray combustion.

In Vitro Evaluation oF Aerosol Drug Delivery With And Without High Flow Nasal Cannula Using Pressurized Metered Dose Inhaler And Jet Nebulizer in Pediatrics [PDF]
Background: HFNC system is a novel device used with aerosol therapy and seems to be rapidly accepted. Although there are some studies conducted on HFNC and vibrating mesh nebulizer, the effect of HFNC on aerosol delivery using jet nebulizer or ...

Nucleation stage in supersaturated vapor with inhomogeneities due to nonstationary diffusion onto growing droplets [PDF]
An analytical description of nucleation stage in a supersaturated vapor with instantly created supersaturation is given with taking into account the vapor concentration inhomogeneities arising as a result of depletion due to non-stationary diffusion onto growing droplets. This description suggests that the intensity of the nucleation of new droplets is

Premelting-Induced Smoothening of the Ice-Vapor Interface [PDF]
We perform computer simulations of the quasiliquid layer of ice formed at the ice-vapor interface close to the ice Ih-liquid-vapor triple point of water. Our study shows that the two distinct surfaces bounding the film behave at small wavelengths as atomically rough and independent ice-water and water-vapor interfaces.
