The soft x-ray diagnostic is suitable for monitoring plasma activity in the tokamak core, e.g., sawtooth instability. Moreover, spatially resolved measurements can provide information about plasma position and shape, which can supplement magnetic measurements. In this contribution, fast algorithms with the potential for a real-time use are tested on the data from the COMPASS tokamak. In additio...

non-hodgkin lymphoma usually presents with generalized lymphadenopathy, but it can also involve any part of the human body. lymphomatous involvement of muscles is a rare presentation and has been reported to occur in only 1.1% in non-hodgkin lymphoma. here we, present a 32 year-old iranian man with primary involvement of spleen, bone, bone marrow and muscle, mimicking soft tissue sarcoma; core ...

structures for wearable electronics serve to minimize interface stresses and mechanical constraints on natural body motions, with ability to strain isolate the active devices. On page 3698, Y. Huang, J. A. Rogers, and co-workers show how integrating emerging commercial classes of stretchable electronics into this type of structure provides systems with capabilities in continuous, precision wire...

This paper presents a processor textit soft-core, implemented on a programmable logic device FPGA, of type OISC ( textit One Instruction Set Computer), that is to say that it has a ’unique instruction ’on and that this is complete Turing. The developed processor is 8 bits (although it can be easily modified) and compared with the 8-bit Xilinx processor (Picoblaze) in order to present a proposal...

This paper deals with the implementation of PID controller for a DC motor controller application on FPGA platform. The soft IP core of PID controller is implemented on FPGA ALTERA Quartus II platform by using Quartus II software version 10.1. The PWM signal is generated by ALTERA board, which further given to DC motor for its speed control. The soft IP core of PID controller is prototyped and v...

The authors present an approach to classify a brand’s buyers into groups with varying degrees of loyalty along a continuum from “hard-core loyal” to “hard-core switcher.” A classification scheme is developed based on the joint use of stated consideration set and brand switching data. The resulting loyalty taxonomy yields five mutually exclusive segments: Hard-Core Loyal (HCL), Soft Loyal (SL), ...

More than 40 years ago, Andreev, Lifshitz and Chester suggested the possible existence of a peculiar solid phase of matter, the microscopic constituents of which can flow superfluidly without resistance due to the formation of zero-point defects in the ground state of self-assembled crystals. Yet, a physical system where this mechanism is unambiguously established remains to be found, both expe...
