The 3DP: a processor architecture for three-dimensionalapplications

The 3DP (3-Dimensional Processor), a parallel-computing architecture that targets problems that have a 3-D numerical structure and require numerous calculations on 3-D vectors, is described. The 3DP architecture differs from traditional scalar architectures in that it operates directly on vectors. It differs from general parallel architectures in that it can solve problems that predict the behavior of highly coupled systems, and it differs from vector architectures in that it runs efficiently on length-3 vectors. Object-oriented programming on the 3DP and programming the 3DP in C++ are discussed. 3DP performance is reviewed, and the current implementation of the 3DP architecture, as an attached processor that plugs directly into Sun host VMEbus, is described     

An isolated ZVS/ZCS flyback converter using the leakage inductanceof the coupled inductor

This paper describes a simple and effective way to modify an existing hard-switched flyback power converter into a circuit with zero-voltage switching (ZVS) and zero-current switching (ZCS). The key improvement is to turn the unattractive features of the coupled inductor leakage inductance and snubber capacitor into attractive ones. The coupled inductor leakage inductance and snubber are used to form a quasi-resonant circuit to facilitate ZVS/ZCS of all power devices. The operating principles of the power converter and experimental results are presented

吸附法脱除乙烯中少量氧气的吸附剂研究

采用重量法在电子天平上研究了Ｃ２Ｈ４和Ｏ２单组份在５Ａ、１３Ｘ、丝光沸石和碳分子筛等不同吸附剂上的吸附平衡性质和扩散动力学性质。结果表明，在沸石类吸附剂上，Ｃ２Ｈ４的平衡吸附量远大于Ｏ２的平衡吸附量，Ｃ２Ｈ４的吸附扩散速率也大于Ｏ２的扩散速率；在碳分子筛吸附剂上Ｃ２Ｈ４的平衡吸附量大于Ｏ２的平衡吸附量，但Ｏ２的吸附扩散速率远大于Ｃ２Ｈ４的扩散速率，其扩散系数是Ｃ２Ｈ４的２３９倍。单柱评价结果表明，Ｃ２Ｈ４－Ｏ２混合组份通过该碳分子筛吸附剂时，Ｏ２的破点时间长，Ｃ２Ｈ４的纯度可达１００％。加压有利于选择吸附Ｏ２，而且加压吸附、常压脱附再生性能好。该碳分子筛是脱除高浓度乙烯中少量氧气的理想吸附剂。     

激光对望远系统损伤的研究

助模板剂对MCM—41分子筛孔结构和性能的影响

在硅酸钠－硫酸铝－十六烷基三甲基氯化铵－水体系中，加入不同类型，如正庚烷、三甲基苯和十二胺的有机助模板剂（简称助剂）进行ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛的合成试验，并用ＸＲＤ、ＩＲ及Ｎ２吸附等方法考察了助剂对ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛孔径、热稳定性及酸性的影响。结果表明，十二胺助剂对ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛的孔径影响最大，但热稳定性较差，相比之下，三甲基苯助剂合成的ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛具有孔径大、热稳定性好和酸性特征较好的特点。     

Crystal structure of ICAM-2 reveals a distinctive integrin recognition surface

Recognition by integrin proteins on the cell surface regulates the adhesive interactions between cells and their surroundings. The structure of the 'I' domain that is found in some but not all integrins, has been determined. However, the only integrin ligands for which structures are known, namely fibronectin and VCAM-1, are recognized by integrins that lack I domains. The intercellular adhesion molecules ICAM-1, 2 and 3 are, like VCAM-1, members of the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF), but they are recognized by an I domain-containing integrin, lymphocyte-function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1, or CD11a/CD18). Here we present the crystal structure of the extracellular region of ICAM-2. The glutamic acid residue at position 37 is critical for LFA-1 binding and is proposed to coordinate the Mg2+ ion in the I domain; this Glu 37 is surrounded by a relatively flat recognition surface and lies in a beta-strand, whereas the critical aspartic acid residue in VCAM-1 and fibronectin lie in protruding loops. This finding suggests that there are differences in the architecture of recognition sites between integrins that contain or lack I domains. A bend between domains 1 and 2 of ICAM-2 and a tripod-like arrangement of N-linked glycans in the membrane-proximal region of domain 2 may be important for presenting the recognition surface to LFA-1. A model of ICAM-1 based on the ICAM-2 structure provides a framework for understanding its recognition by pathogens.     

Identification of urinary dipeptidase as the released form of renal dipeptidase

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) comprises of a number of childhood abnormalities, often associated with one or more tumors. Thirty-eight patients were investigated to determine clinical and/or biological signs associated with a tumor presence. Our patients exhibited a higher incidence of tumor development (21%) than that previously reported, underlying the care with which such patients should be followed, when particular clinical features are observed: visceromegaly affecting three organs (liver, kidney, spleen), and also family history with sign of BWS such as macroglossia, omphalocele, hemihypertrophy, embryonic tumor), high body weight at birth (> or = +2 standard deviations and diastasis recti.
