A novel Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) system without frequency sweep operation is proposed using intensity-modulated direct detection optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (IM-DD-OOFDM) probe signal. The influence of peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of OFDM probe signal on the recovery of Brillouin gain spectrum (BGS) is analyzed in theory and experiment. The complex BGS is reconstructed by channel estimation algorithm and Brillouin frequency shift (BFS) is located by curve fitting of intensity spectrum. The IM-DD-OOFDM BOTDA is demonstrated experimentally with 25 m spatial resolution over 10 km standard single mode fibers within much less measurement time.

Structural and Functional Insights into UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-enolpyruvate Reductase (MurB) from Brucella ovis.

The peptidoglycan biosynthetic pathway involves a series of enzymatic reactions in which UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-enolpyruvate reductase (MurB) plays a crucial role in catalyzing the conversion of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-enolpyruvate (UNAGEP) to UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid. This reaction relies on NADPH and FAD and, since MurB is not found in eukaryotes, it is an attractive target for the development of antimicrobials. MurB from Brucella ovis, the causative agent of brucellosis in sheep, is characterized here.

Quantifying form resistance is essential for estimating summer low and bankfull flow from stream survey channel morphology.

Reliable estimates of low flow and flood discharge at ungaged locations are required for evaluating stream flow alteration, designing culverts and stream crossings, and interpreting regional surveys of habitat and biotic condition. Very few stream gaging stations are located on small, remote streams, which typically have complex channel morphology. Adequate gaging is also lacking on larger streams that are remote, smaller than those typically gaged, or have channel morphology not conducive to installation of gages.

Objectives: Femtosecond laser image guided high precision trabeculotomy (FLigHT) is a novel open-angle glaucoma treatment. The procedure non-invasively creates aqueous humor (AH) drainage channel from the anterior chamber (AC) to Schlemm's canal (SC) through the trabecular meshwork (TM) to decrease intraocular pressure (IOP). The purpose of this study was to develop a 3D finite element model (FEM) of the FLigHT procedure and to simulate clinical results for different drainage channel cross-sectional areas.

Impacts of City Life on Nutrition: Evidence From Resettlement Lotteries in China.

January 2025

Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, USA.

Urban environments are thought to improve food security, by offering enhanced access to markets and income opportunities. Yet this idea is hard to test empirically due to an abundance of confounding factors and selection issues. This study leverages a resettlement program in China to provide the first quasi-experimental estimate of city life on food consumption and nutrition among low-income households.

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) systems acquire images with spectral information over a wide range of wavelengths but are often affected by chromatic and other optical aberrations that degrade image quality. Deconvolution algorithms can improve the spatial resolution of HSI systems, yet retrieving the point spread function (PSF) is a crucial and challenging step. To address this challenge, we have developed a method for PSF estimation in HSI systems based on computed wavefronts.
