Photoacoustic measurements utilize emitted light to generate an acoustic response in tissue, with the acoustic response being proportional to the presence of an absorber of the light in the tissue. The present disclosure relates the use of focused light to acquire photoacoustic measurements. In one embodiment, the light is modulated, such as spatially modulated, such that the light may be focused within an otherwise scattering medium, such as tissue.

A method for transmitting and receiving a control channel, a base station and a terminal relate to a long term evolution advanced system. The method for transmitting a control channel disclosed by the present document includes: a base station side configuring, for a terminal side, detection-limited subframe cluster information of a control channel, so as to notify the terminal side of the manner by which the base station side transmits the control channel. The present document also discloses a method for receiving a control channel, a base station and a terminal.

Efficient secure password protocols are constructed that remain secure against offline dictionary attacks even when a large, but bounded, part of the storage of a server responsible for password verification is retrieved by an adversary through a remote or local connection. A registration algorithm and a verification algorithm accomplish the goal of defeating a dictionary attack. A password protocol where a server, on input of a login and a password, carefully selects several locations from the password files, properly combines their content according to some special function, and stores the result of this function as a tag that can be associated with this password and used in a verification phase to verify access by users. Two main instantiations of our method are given; in one, a combination of mathematical tools, called dispersers and pairwise-independent hash functions is used to achieve security against adaptive intrusions (dispersers make sure that the password of each user depends on randomly chosen locations in a large password file, and pairwise-independent hash functions help in making this dependency sufficiently random); in a second one, a combination of mathematical tools, called k-wise independent hash functions and locally-computable and strong extractors (k-wise independent hash functions make sure that the locations chosen in the large password file from each password are sufficiently random, and locally-computable and strong extractors are used to combine the contents of these locations to generate a single long random value, which makes verification harder for the adversary to foil).

The present disclosure describes systems and methods that use spatial modulation to focus light into a localized region of interest such as an individual blood vessel. In certain embodiments, acoustic modulation techniques, such as ultrasound pulse modulation, are used in conjunction with spatial modulation to achieve more precise measurements through otherwise scattering medium. The focused beam of light is capable of penetrating several centimeters of tissue to deliver measurements and images associated with individual blood vessels and other discrete vascular components.

It also provides for the use of the mammalian nucleic acid molecule for the characterization, diagnosis, evaluation, treatment, or prevention of conditions, diseases and disorders associated with its expression and for the production of a model system. The invention additionally provides expression vectors and host cells for the production of the protein encoded by the mammalian nucleic acid molecule. The invention further provides a mammalian protein or portions thereof. The invention still further provides for the use of the nucleic acid molecule and protein in assays to detect or purify ligands.

A titanium article having improved corrosion resistance resulting from an appliqué of a platinum group metal or alloy thereof attached to a minor surface portion of the article.

This disclosure relates to masonry construction of residential houses using prefabricated masonry panels or blocks, such as Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) panels or Concrete Masonry Units (CMU). Unlike existing masonry construction methods, this masonry structure is reinforced by common wood studs as join keys. All wood studs are individually strap-tied directly to the foundation and horizontally bound together to form a network of cells enclosing masonry blocks throughout the entire building. Considerations are given to prevent wood studs absorbing moisture from masonry material.

An installation for supplying liquid feed to an animal, such as a calf. The installation comprises one or more feed loading places (1) and one or more feed unloading places (2-5), and one or more vehicles (9) that are autonomously displaceable, controlled by a microprocessor or the like, between one or more feed loading places and one or more feed unloading places, each vehicle comprising a drinking nozzle (10), such as a flexible teat.

The invention provides a mammalian cDNA which encodes a mammalian AQP8V. It also provides for the use of the cDNA, fragments, complements, and variants thereof and of the encoded protein, portions thereof and antibodies thereto for diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic disorders, particularly type I diabetes. The invention additionally provides expression vectors and host cells for the production of the protein and a transgenic model system.

This application relates to a high-protein and high-calorie, ready-to-use, heat-sterilized, oral enteral nutritional composition.

A vehicle collision protection apparatus includes a bracket. The bracket includes a deflecting force generating component provided at a rear end of the bracket. The bracket is disposed in a vehicle front space of a vehicle and extends in a front to rear direction of the vehicle and attach a vehicle component to a body of the vehicle. The deflecting force generating component deflects the rear end of the bracket in a width direction of the vehicle and rotates the bracket together with the vehicle component in the width direction when the deflecting force generating component impinges against a portion of the vehicle body as the rear end of the bracket is displaced in a rearward direction of the vehicle due to crushing of a front end of the vehicle during a collision at the front end of the vehicle.
