Response Characteristics of Contactless Impedance Detection (CID) Sensor on Slug Flow in Small Channels: The Investigation on Slug Separation Distance [PDF]
Sensors, 2022 In recent years, CID sensors have displayed great development potential in parameter measurement of gas–liquid two-phase flow in small channels. However, the fundamental/mechanism research on the response characteristics of CID sensors is relatively ...

Spinal cord protection by epidural separation during vertebral cryoablation for metastatic spine disease: A proof-of-concept preclinical study [PDF]
Brain and SpineIntroduction: Cryoablation for spinal metastases is limited by the risk of cryogenic neural injury near the spinal cord. Physical separation between the vertebral body and dura may provide a thermal margin, but the distance–temperature relationship in ...

Are Empirical Equations an Appropriate Tool to Assess Separation Distances to Avoid Odour Annoyance?
Atmosphere, 2020 Annoyance due to environmental odour exposure is in many jurisdictions evaluated by a yes/no decision. Such a binary decision has been typically achieved via odour impact criteria (OIC) and, when applicable, the resultant separation distances between ...

Weak Separation, Pure Domains and Cluster Distance [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020 Following the proof of the purity conjecture for weakly separated sets, recent years have revealed a variety of wider classes of pure domains in different settings. In this paper we show the purity for domains consisting of sets that are weakly separated
