With the successful development of artificial intelligence (AI), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) occupy a large amount of computing time and power consumption in the entire AI computing process. However, in traditional von Neumann architectures, the separation of the computing element and memory leads to the memory-wall problem of memory data transmission bandwidth from memory to processing element when executing multiply-accumulate-based CNN operations. The data transmission time and power consumption all are much higher than the CNN computing part. Therefore, this paper proposes a memory-in-computation design that can flexibly adjust energy usage, achieve high energy efficiency, and support multiple operation frequencies. By controlling the switches of each memory row, unnecessary energy consumption is avoided, leading to a reduction in total power consumption by 15% to 60%. Additionally, by adjusting the pulse width, the charging power consumption of capacitors is reduced by 65% per charge cycle.
The development of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes demands novel synthesis methods to precisely control the properties of the active material. Here, we report an advanced one-step approach that employs ammo...

nanoindentation is widely used to investigate mechanical properties of materials at small scales. In this work, owing to the presence of contrasting interfaces along rolling (RD) and transverse direction (TD), a 16 nm accumulative roll bonding (ARB) Cu/Nb nanolaminate as a test material due to its crystallographic anisotropy was used. nanoindentation was performed and then Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) data was conducted to measure the pile-up height along RD and TD in the nanoscale Cu/Nb multilayered materials. It was found that the 16 nm Cu/Nb ARB nanolayered material along RD showed higher surface pile-up than TD attributed the observation to the variation in the Cu/Nb interface plasticity along RD and TD. Further, a comparation and validation of experimental indentation data by performing 2D axisymmetric Finite Element Analysis (FEA) indicated that the simulation compares well with the experimentally generated load-displacement curves, while qualitative agreement was obtained with the pileup data. It is believed that the characterization of surface pile-up is very important for enabling the nanoscale Cu/Nb ARB nanolaminates as the novel stretchable/flexible metallic conductor materials (with emerging applications such as e-skins, human-computer interaction, and soft robotics) that may prove crucial for the global green and sustainability efforts (soft robots for collecting plastic trashes in ocean).
Photonic technologies continue to drive the quest for new optical materials with unprecedented responses. A major frontier in this field is the exploration of nonlocal (spatially dispersive) materials, going beyond th...

To the best of the knowledge of the authors, the formulation is carried out for the first time on the finite-element beam-propagation method for the analysis of the magnetooptic waveguide in which the structure varies along the propagation direction. The present method is applicable not only to the case in which refractive index difference is small but also to the case for the TE mode and the TM mode propagating in a waveguide with a large refractive index difference. To suppress the spurious reflection from the computational window edges, the transparent boundary condition is applied.

A turning point occurred in naval engineering in 1972 when the U.S. N avy chose to use marine gas turbines for the propulsion of its new SPRUANCE and PERRY Class ships. This paper reviews the more than twenty years of experience with turbine technology and its design integration into combat ships needed to make that decision. It is concluded that the availability of a good second generation aircraft derivative engine with proven reliability and a strong commercial base, i.e., the LM-2500, was as important to the decision as was the predicted improved ship effectiveness and cost benefits. This paper discusses improvements that can be made to the twin engine, single gear, single propeller shaft system. Focusing only on this mechanical transmission concept, it addresses the impact of possible improvements to the engine, gear, and shafting. In particular, the paper discusses current LM-2500 related R&D efforts to: (a) obtain improved part-power fuel rates, (b) integrate with a reversing reduction gear, and (c) add on a waste heat recovery steam cycle. Looking ahead to the year 2000, this paper suggests that a successor to the ubiquitous LM-2500 will appear in the 15 MW power range to provide the next step in the evolution of the twin engine package. This new naval engine will most likely be based on an aircraft core that exists at present, such that it will have demonstrated its reliability and commercial potential through many hours of testing prior to its mid-1990 marine conversion. This new engine is expected to offer improved air flow, an excellent fuel rate (approaching a flat 0.30 LB/HP-HR), and effective maintenance monitoring, all at some expense in size, weight, and cost. The year 2000 engine will burn a liquid hydrocarbon fuel similar to JP-5 because of its aircraft origins. Combined with advances in gear and shafting technology, the full twin engine propulsion system of the year 2000 should be markedly lighter, smaller, and more efficient than today's units.

BENNETT, RAWSONUSN Chief of Naval ResearchTHE AUTHOR was born on June 16
1905. in Chicago Illinois. He was appointed to the U. S. Naval Academy Annapolis. Maryland from California in 1923. Graduated and commissioned Ensign on June 2 1921 he subsequently advanced to the rank of Captain to date from March 20 1945. In December 1955 he was appointed Rear Admiral to date from January 3 1956. Following graduation in 1927 he joined the USS California flagship of the Battle Fleet. Later in 1928. he was assigned communication duty on the staff of Commander Battle Fleet serving as such until August 1930. In November of that year he reported on board the USS Isabel for duty on Asiatic Station and in October 1932 was transferred to the USS Rochester. He completed his Asiatic tour of duty in the USS Houston in 1933. Detached from this vessel he returned to the United States and joined the USS Idaho. After 7 years of sea duty he returned to Annapolis Maryland for postgraduate instruction in radio (electronic) engineering. He completed the course in May 1936 and was assigned to the University of California Berkeley for additional postgraduate work receiving the Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering after which he reported aboard the USS Concord. Continuing sea duty he joined the staff of Commander Destroyer Division Nineteen (later redesignated Destroyer Fifty) in April 1938 and served as Radio and Sound Officer until June 1941. Starting in July 1939 he set up the technical program of the first fleet Sound School at San Diego California. In July 1941 he reported to the Bureau of Ships Navy Department Washington D.C. There he served first as Head of the Underwater Sound Design Section of the Radio Division and later Head of Electronics Design Division from 1943 to 1946. He was awarded the Legion of Merit “for exceptionally meritorious conduct” during this tour of duty. Upon leaving the Bureau of Ships in August 1946 he reported as Director of the U. S. Navy Electronics Laboratory Point Loma
