Ultrashort pulses have garnered significant attention across various scientific disciplines and applications. In this paper, we demonstrate that the recently introduced amplitude swing technique is a robust method for characterizing pulses in the few-cycle temporal domain by analyzing compressed and chirped pulses from a Ti:Sapphire laser oscillator. The duration of the measured pulse for the case of best compression was 5.98 fs (Fourier limit 5.50 fs) corresponding to 2.2 cycles, while the chirped pulses were up to 15 times temporally stretched. The results obtained have been validated using the d-scan technique, showing excellent agreement in all situations. Therefore, the capability of the amplitude swing technique to measure ultra-broadband pulses in the few-cycle regime is demonstrated, as well as very far from optimum compression, while only being limited by the transparency and birefringence of its elements.

Excavators, a type of human-operated construction machinery, suffer from poor hydraulic load braking stability, which seriously affects operator comfort. To address this challenge, this study investigates load braking laws through model analysis and designs an open-loop control algorithm called command reshaping, which can prolong the small-opening time of the main valve by segmentally adjusting the joystick command during load braking and then actively adjusting the key parameters reflecting the system's kinetic-potential energy state, thereby suppressing braking oscillations. The experimental results based on a 1.

Monitoring the seasonal and diurnal variations in headwater stream metabolic regimes can provide critical information for understanding how ecosystems will respond to future environmental changes. In East Fork Creek, a headwater stream in middle Tennessee, week-long field campaigns were set up each month from May 2022 to May 2023 to collect stream metabolism estimators. In a more extensive field campaign from July 2-5 in 2022, diel signals were observed for temperature, pH, turbidity, and concentrations of Ca, Mg, K, Se, Fe, Ba, chloride, nitrate, DIC, DO, DOC, and total algae.

Background: In Parkinson's Disease (PD), upper limb tremor during walking (TW) is observed and clinical observations suggest it may represent a variant of rest tremor. However, its neurophysiological characteristics remain unexplored.
Objectives: This study compared the neurophysiological features of TW with other PD tremors and tested whether TW arises from reduced ipsilateral arm swing.

It is known that fear responses to clearly identified threats can inhibit motion, slowing down gait and inducing postural freezing. Nonetheless, it is less clear how anxiety, which emerges during threat anticipation, affects gait parameters. In the present work, we used a threat-of-scream paradigm to study the effects of anxiety on gait.

The contribution of body part angular momentum (BPAM) to whole body angular momentum (WBAM) in the frontal plane during walking differs across age groups. We investigated age related differences in BPAM and WBAM during walking. We used marker coordinate data from a publicly available database for 54 individuals aged 20-30 years and 78 aged 60-70 years.
