A high performance communications and memory caching scheme for molecular dynamics on the CM-5

Description: In this paper, we provide a brief overview of our general molecular dynamics algorithm and focus on several performance enhancements that have allowed us to achieve high performance on the CM-5. Our use of the CM-5 vector units (VUs) to calculate forces is described along with a memory caching scheme that speeds up the force calculation by as much as 50%. In addition, we discuss a method used to speed up the communication aspects of our algorithm by more than 35%. Lastly, recent timing and scal… more

Coal reburning for cyclone boiler NO{sub x} control demonstration. Quarterly report No. 13, April--June 1993

Description: The coal reburning for cyclone boiler NO{sub x} control system consists of commercially available equipment, such as a pulverizer, burners, a pneumatic coal transfer system, overfire air ports and a control system, all of which are well proven, reliable equipment that can be readily installed. Extensive power plant modification is not required to implement the reburn technology which will increase the potential for commercialization. The coal reburning technology will be a desirable alternative… more

Operational equations for the five-point rectangle

Description: Two operational polynomials are demonstrated for the four-point rectangle with center point. The equations are exact on the points and the surfaces they describe ordinarily fit known monotonic surfaces better tan the standard five-point equation, as judged by the L{sub 2} norm test. Equations for fitting the five-point rectangle by sines and cosines are presented.

Superconducting magnet system for the TPX Tokamak

Description: The Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX) will be the first Tokamak using superconducting magnets for both the poloidal and toroidal field. It is designed for advanced Tokamak physics experiments in steady-state and long-pulse operation. The TPX superconducting magnets use an advanced cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) design similar to that developed in support of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). The toroidal field magnets provide 4.0 T at 2.25 m with a stored energy of 1… more

Structural analysis of a superconducting central solenoid for the Tokamak Physics Experiment

Description: The Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX) concept design uses superconducting coils to accomplish magnetic confinement. The central solenoid (CS) magnet is divided vertically into 8 equal segments which are powered independently. The eddy current heating from the pulsed operation is too high for a case type construction; therefore, a {open_quotes}no case{close_quotes} design has been chosen. This {open_quotes}no case{close_quotes} design uses the conductor conduit as the primary structure and the el… more

Testing of ITER prototype cable-in-conduit conductors in the FENIX facility

Description: The Fusion Engineering International experiment (FENIX) Test Facility has been operational since 1991 at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory for testing the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) prototype conductors. These conductors are designed to operate stably with transport current of more than 40 kA at a magnetic field of 13 T. The FENIX facility consists of four magnet sets that are configured to allow easy access to the 40-cm high-field region with a test cross-… more

Activation of an S6 Kinase From Human Placenta by Autophosphorylation

Description: Article describing a novel S6 kinase isolated from human placenta which autoactivates through autophosphorylation in vitro. The data supports the hypothesis that this previously uncharacterized S6 kinase belongs to a unique family of protein kinases which utilize autophosphorylation as part of their in vivo activation mechanism.
