COMBINING APP-BASED BEHAVIORAL THERAPY WITH ELECTRONIC CIGARETTES FOR SMOKING CESSATION: A STUDY PROTOCOL FOR A SINGLE-ARM MIXED-METHODS PILOT TRIAL

Combining app-based behavioral therapy with electronic cigarettes for smoking cessation: a study protocol for a single-arm mixed-methods pilot trial

Abstract Background Cigarette smoking remains a leading cause of preventable illness and death, underscoring the need for effective evidence-based smoking cessation interventions.Nuumi, a novel smoking cessation program integrating a digital behavioral therapy and an electronic cigarette, may provide a solution.Objective To investigate the initial

Study on the optimal design of mistuned bladed disk (Simultaneous optimization of forced and self-excited vibration and amount of unbalance)

Although bladed disks are nominally designed to be cyclically symmetric (tuned system), the vibration characteristics of all blades on a disk are slightly different due to the manufacturing tolerance, deviations in the material properties, and wear during operation.These small variations break the cyclic symmetry and split the eigenvalue pairs.Blad
