Background : Pulmonary rehabilitation, called pulmonary rehab or PR, is a broad program that helps improve the well-being of people who have chronic (ongoing) breathing problems. Purpose : The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effects of the upper abdominal exercise and balloon blow-up on the abdominal muscle strength and Respiratory ability for 20's adults. Method : Recruited Subjects were healthy students attending H university. Twenty-one subjects who agreed to participate in this study were randomly assigned to 3 groups; I group applied upper abdominal exercise, IIgroup applied balloon blow-up, III group applied both upper abdominal exercises and balloon blow-ups. Upper abdominal muscle exercises was applied supine position and $30^{\circ}{\sim}40^{\circ}$ in the upper body lift braced for about 3 seconds, and balloon blow-ups was performed 10 times a day. The exercise programs were performed three times a week for 5 weeks. Results: After 5 weeks of exercises, all three groups were comparable with abdominal muscle strength and respiratory ability. Subjects in upper abdominal exercise group, balloon blow-ups group, and upper abdominal exercises and balloon blow-ups group had significantly increased the average of abdominal muscle strength(p<.05) The statistical comparison among the groups indicated that there was a signigicant increase in respiratory ability. In comparison of abdominal muscle strength and respiratory ability, there were no significant differences among 3 groups. Conclusions: These findings suggest that upper abdominal exercises and balloon blow-ups may have a significant impact in abdominal muscle strength and respiratory ability.

In this paper, we consider the existence and uniqueness of global weak solution for a sixth-order classical surface-diffusion equation in one spatial dimension. Moreover, the regularity and blow-up of solutions are also studied.

We obtain ordinary differential equations related with some nonlocal Schr$Schr{\ddot{o}}dinger$dinger equations. As applications, we prove finite time blow-up or extinction of solutions.

This paper deals with blow-up phenomena for an initial boundary value problem of a quasilinear parabolic equation with time-dependent coefficient in a bounded star-shaped region under nonlinear boundary flux. Using the auxiliary function method and differential inequality technique, we establish some conditions on time-dependent coefficient and nonlinear functions for which the solution u(x, t) exists globally or blows up at some finite time $t^*$. Moreover, some upper and lower bounds for $t^*$ are derived in higher dimensional spaces. Some examples are presented to illustrate applications of our results.

This paper deals the global existence and blow-up properties of the following non-Newton polytropic filtration system, $${u_t}-{\triangle}_{m,p}u=u^{{\alpha}_1}\;{\int}_{\Omega}\;{\upsilon}^{{\beta}_1}\;(x,\;t)dx,\;{\upsilon}_t-{\triangle}_{n,p}{\upsilon}={\upsilon}^{{\alpha}_2}\;{\int}_{\Omega}\;u^{{\beta}_2}\;(x,{\;}t)dx,$$ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. Under appropriate hypotheses, we prove that the solution either exists globally or blows up in finite time depends on the initial data and the relations of the parameters in the system.

An impulsive semilinear parabolic equation subject to Robin boundary condition is considered. We prove that for certain classes of impulsive sources and continuous initial data, the solutions of the problem under consideration blow up in the desired time interval.

In this paper, we consider the quasilinear elliptic system $\\div(|{\nabla}u|^{p-2}{\nabla}u)=u(a_1u^{m1}+b_1(x)u^m+{\delta}_1v^n),\;\\div(|{\nabla}_v|^{q-2}{\nabla}v)=v(a_2v^{r1}+b_2(x)v^r+{\delta}_2u^s)$, in $\Omega$ where m > $m_1$ > p-2, r > $r_1$ > q-, p, q $\geq$ 2, and ${\Omega}{\subset}R^N$ is a smooth bounded domain. By constructing certain super and subsolutions, we show the existence of positive blow-up solutions and give a global estimate.

This paper is devoted to the study of a nonlinear Kirchhoff-Carrier wave equation in an annulus associated with Robin-Dirichlet conditions. At first, by applying the Faedo-Galerkin method, we prove existence and uniqueness results. Then, by constructing a Lyapunov functional, we prove a blow up result for solutions with a negative initial energy and establish a sufficient condition to obtain the exponential decay of weak solutions.

We prove that there are rational homology balls $B_p$ smoothly embedded in the 2-handlebodies associated to certain knots. Furthermore we show that, if we rationally blow up the 2-handlebody along the embedded rational homology ball $B_p$, then the resulting 4-manifold cannot be obtained just by a sequence of ordinary blow ups from the 2-handlebody under a certain mild condition.
