Scalability of spin FPGA: A Reconfigurable Architecture based on spin MOSFET

Scalability of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) using spin MOSFET (spin FPGA) with magnetocurrent (MC) ratio in the range of 100% to 1000% is discussed for the first time. Area and speed of million-gate spin FPGA are numerically benchmarked with CMOS FPGA for 22nm, 32nm and 45nm technologies including 20% transistor size variation. We show that area is reduced and speed is increased in spin FPGA owing to the nonvolatile memory function of spin MOSFET.Comment: 3 pages, 7 figure

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECT OF CENTRIFUGAL AND CORlOLlS FORCES IN SWINGING A BAT

This paper reports a dynamic analysis by computer simulation of bat swinging, taking into account inertial forces at the wrist joint, and which consist of centrifugal and Coriolis forces generated from a body turn and internal rotation of the upper limbs. The ideal bat swing generated by optimisation using a mathematical model is also described. Based on the dynamic analysis, it is shown that the inertial forces play an important role in the process of flexion and extension between a bat and the upper limbs during a bat swing, and that the effects of gravity on a bat is much smaller than those from inertial forces. It was also proven from the optimisation that an ideal bat swing, a swing using minimal torque at the wrist, exists

63/65^{63/65}Cu- and 35/37^{35/37}Cl-NMR Studies of Triplet Localization in the Quantum Spin System NH4_4CuCl3_3

$^{63/65}$Cu- and $^{35/37}$Cl-NMR experiments were performed to investigate triplet localization in the $S=1/2$ dimer compound NH$_4$CuCl$_3$, which shows magnetization plateaus at one-quarter and three-quarters of the saturation magnetization. In $^{63/65}$Cu-NMR experiments, signal from only the singlet Cu site was observed, because that from the triplet Cu site was invisible due to the strong spin fluctuation of onsite 3$d$-spins. We found that the temperature dependence of the shift of $^{63/65}$Cu-NMR spectra at the singlet Cu site deviated from that of macroscopic magnetization below T=6 K. This deviation is interpreted as the triplet localization in this system. From the $^{35/37}$Cl-NMR experiments at the 1/4-plateau phase, we found the two different temperature dependences of Cl-shift, namely the temperature dependence of one deviates below T=6 K from that of the macroscopic magnetization as observed in the $^{63/65}$Cu-NMR experiments, whereas the other corresponds well with that of the macroscopic magnetization in the entire experimental temperature region. We interpreted these dependences as reflecting the transferred hyperfine field at the Cl site located at a singlet site and at a triplet site, respectively. This result also indicates that the triplets are localized at low temperatures. $^{63/65}$Cu-NMR experiments performed at high magnetic fields between the one-quarter and three-quarters magnetization plateaus have revealed that the two differently oriented dimers in the unit cell are equally occupied by triplets, the fact of which limits the theoretical model on the periodic structure of the localized triplets.Comment: 19 pages, 9 figures, submitted to PRB (in press

An Efficient Algorithm for Enumerating Chordless Cycles and Chordless Paths

A chordless cycle (induced cycle) $C$ of a graph is a cycle without any chord, meaning that there is no edge outside the cycle connecting two vertices of the cycle. A chordless path is defined similarly. In this paper, we consider the problems of enumerating chordless cycles/paths of a given graph $G=(V,E),$ and propose algorithms taking $O(|E|)$ time for each chordless cycle/path. In the existing studies, the problems had not been deeply studied in the theoretical computer science area, and no output polynomial time algorithm has been proposed. Our experiments showed that the computation time of our algorithms is constant per chordless cycle/path for non-dense random graphs and real-world graphs. They also show that the number of chordless cycles is much smaller than the number of cycles. We applied the algorithm to prediction of NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectra, and increased the accuracy of the prediction

DYNAMICS ANALYSIS OF PEDALING MOTION IN RACING CYCLE WITH COMPUTER SIMULATION

This paper reports the new method based on the computer simulation for the dynamics analysis of the pedaling motion in a racing cycle. At first, we describe three-dimensional mathematical models of lower limbs and the cycle, and then explain the formulation as the systems of Lagrange equations. Time-series angular displacements of each joint, the crank arm, and each pedal were obtained by capturing actual human pedaling motions. The 'ideal' pedal forces were computed by using the model of the cycle. The method for solving the 'inverse kinematics problem' is also proposed. As the results of the dynamic simulation, we obtained several dynamic properties of the three-dimensional pedaling motion. And the differences between the three-dimensional pedaling motion and the two dimensional motion were also described

Space-Time Structure of Loop Quantum Black Hole

In this paper we have improved the semiclassical analysis of loop quantum black hole (LQBH) in the conservative approach of constant polymeric parameter. In particular we have focused our attention on the space-time structure. We have introduced a very simple modification of the spherically symmetric Hamiltonian constraint in its holonomic version. The new quantum constraint reduces to the classical constraint when the polymeric parameter goes to zero.Using this modification we have obtained a large class of semiclassical solutions parametrized by a generic function of the polymeric parameter. We have found that only a particular choice of this function reproduces the black hole solution with the correct asymptotic flat limit. In r=0 the semiclassical metric is regular and the Kretschmann invariant has a maximum peaked in L-Planck. The radial position of the pick does not depend on the black hole mass and the polymeric parameter. The semiclassical solution is very similar to the Reissner-Nordstrom metric. We have constructed the Carter-Penrose diagrams explicitly, giving a causal description of the space-time and its maximal extension. The LQBH metric interpolates between two asymptotically flat regions, the r to infinity region and the r to 0 region. We have studied the thermodynamics of the semiclassical solution. The temperature, entropy and the evaporation process are regular and could be defined independently from the polymeric parameter. We have studied the particular metric when the polymeric parameter goes towards to zero. This metric is regular in r=0 and has only one event horizon in r = 2m. The Kretschmann invariant maximum depends only on L-Planck. The polymeric parameter does not play any role in the black hole singularity resolution. The thermodynamics is the same.Comment: 17 pages, 19 figure

The development of a knowledge base for basic active structures: an example case of dopamine agonists

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Chemical compounds affecting a bioactivity can usually be classified into several groups, each of which shares a characteristic substructure. We call these substructures "basic active structures" or BASs. The extraction of BASs is challenging when the database of compounds contains a variety of skeletons. Data mining technology, associated with the work of chemists, has enabled the systematic elaboration of BASs.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>This paper presents a BAS knowledge base, BASiC, which currently covers 46 activities and is available on the Internet. We use the dopamine agonists D1, D2, and Dauto as examples and illustrate the process of BAS extraction. The resulting BASs were reasonably interpreted after proposing a few template structures.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>The knowledge base is useful for drug design. Proposed BASs and their supporting structures in the knowledge base will facilitate the development of new template structures for other activities, and will be useful in the design of new lead compounds via reasonable interpretations of active structures.</p
