Both these models have different weaknesses that limit their effectiveness. Here, we will show that one can develop a Gaussian Beam Equivalent Point Source (GBEPS) model that removes those weaknesses and combines the accuracy and versatility of the point source models with much of the speed and well-behaved nature of Gaussian beam models. We will demonstrate the efficiency and versatility of this new GBEPS model in simulating the beams generated from ultrasonic phased arrays, using as few as one Gaussian beam per element of the array. A single element GBEPS model will be shown to be as accurate as a point source model even when substantial beam focusing or steering is present in the array or where the array beam is transmitted through an interface. At the same time the GBEPS model will be shown to be several orders of magnitude faster than the point source model.展开更多

In order to study the feasibility of small-mass samples in Xi'an-AMS and evaluate the radiocarbon sample preparation ability using existing routine systems of H2/Fe and Zn/Fe, the small-mass samples prepared by four different methods are tested. They are the mass division method, mass dilution method, H2/Fe reduction method and Zn/Fe reduction method. The results show that carbon mass above 25 μg can be prepared using the existing Zn/Fe system, but no less than 100 μg is required using the existing H2/Fe system, which can be improved. This indicates Xi'an-AMS are now able to analyze small-mass radiocarbon samples.展开更多

The paper finds that the concept of sustainable transportation has been given increased attention in all places. There are significant variances between the research, policy proposal, and implementation. Efforts made towards sustainable transportation, and the focus of the efforts at entities within and outside the US also vary notably. As a whole, the US did more research on sustainable transportation than the reference countries and it even undertook several studies of sustainable transportation practices in West Europe. The US federal government is less aggressive than its foreign counterparts in marketing and implementing sustainable transporta- tion. This is evidenced by a lack of overarching federal policy (mandate) on and a universal working definition for sustainable transportation, and absence of a gateway and dedicated website to market and disseminate the idea of sustainable development in general and sustainable transportation in particular.展开更多

文摘Background Coccidiosis,caused by Eimeria parasites,is a major enteric disease in poultry,significantly impacting animal health,production performance,and welfare.This disease imposes a substantial economic burden,costing the global poultry industry up to$13 billion annually.However,effective mitigation strategies for coccidiosis remain elusive.While different chicken breeds exhibit varying resistance to coccidiosis,no commensal bacteria have been directly linked to this resistance.Methods To assess relative resistance of different breeds to coccidiosis,10-day-old Fayoumi M5.1,Leghorn Ghs6,and Cobb chickens were challenged with 50,000 sporulated Eimeria maxima oocysts or mock-infected.Body weight changes,small intestinal lesions,and fecal oocyst shedding were evaluated on d 17.Ileal and cecal digesta were collected from individual animals on d 17 and subjected to microbiome analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.Results Fayoumi M5.1 chickens showed the lowest growth retardation,intestinal lesion score,fecal oocyst shedding,and pathobiont proliferation compared to Ghs6 and Cobb chickens.The intestinal microbiota of M5.1 chickens also differed markedly from the other two breeds under both healthy and coccidiosis conditions.Notably,group A Lactobacillus and Ligilactobacillus salivarius were the least prevalent in both the ileum and cecum of healthy M5.1 chickens,but became highly enriched and comparable to Ghs6 and Cobb chickens in response to coccidiosis.Conversely,Weissella,Staphylococcus gallinarum,and Enterococcus durans/hirae were more abundant in the ileum of healthy M5.1 chickens than in the other two breeds.Despite being reduced by Eimeria,these bacteria retained higher abundance in M5.1 chickens compared to the other breeds.Conclusions Fayoumi M5.1 chickens exhibit greater resistance to coccidiosis than Leghorn Ghs6 layers and Cobb broilers.Several commensal bacteria,including group A Lactobacillus,L.salivarius,Weissella,S.gallinarum,and E.durans/hirae,are differentially enriched in Fayoumi M5.1 chickens with strong correlation with coccidiosis resistance.These bacteria hold potential as probiotics for coccidiosis mitigation.
