Vortex Domain Wall Thermal Pinning and Depinning in a Constricted Magnetic Nanowire for Storage Memory Nanodevices.

In this study, we investigate the thermal pinning and depinning behaviors of vortex domain walls (VDWs) in constricted magnetic nanowires, with a focus on potential applications in storage memory nanodevices. Using micromagnetic simulations and spin transfer torque, we examine the impacts of device temperature on VDW transformation into a transverse domain wall (TDW), mobility, and thermal strength pinning at the constricted area. We explore how thermal fluctuations influence the stability and mobility of domain walls within stepped nanowires.

Eight brain structures mediate the age-related alterations of the working memory: forward and backward digit span tasks.

Introduction: Working memory (WM) as one of the executive functions is an essential neurocognitive ability for daily life. Findings have suggested that aging is often associated with working memory and neural decline, but the brain structures and resting-state brain networks that mediate age-related differences in WM remain unclear.

Methods: A sample consisting of 252 healthy participants in the age range of 20 to 70years was used.

Thermal Effects on Domain Wall Stability at Magnetic Stepped Nanowire for Nanodevices Storage.

In the future, DW memory will replace conventional storage memories with high storage capacity and fast read/write speeds. The only failure in DW memory arises from DW thermal fluctuations at pinning sites. This work examines, through calculations, the parameters that might help control DW thermal stability at the pinning sites.

A multi-objective optimisation approach with improved pareto-optimal solutions to enhance economic and environmental dispatch in power systems.

This work implements the recently developed nth state Markovian jumping particle swarm optimisation (PSO) algorithm with local search (NS-MJPSOloc) awareness method to address the economic/environmental dispatch (EED) problem. The proposed approach, known as the Non-dominated Sorting Multi-objective PSO with Local Best (NS-MJPSOloc), aims to enhance the performance of the PSO algorithm in multi-objective optimisation problems. This is achieved by redefining the concept of best local candidates within the search space of multi-objective optimisation.

2D to 3D Reconstruction of Boron-Linked Covalent-Organic Frameworks.

The transformation of two-dimensional (2D) covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) into three-dimensions (3D) is synthetically challenging, and it is typically addressed through interlayer cross-linking of alkene or alkyne bonds. Here, we report the first example of the chemical reconstruction of a 2D COF to a 3D COF with a complete lattice rearrangement facilitated by base-triggered boron hybridization. This chemical reconstruction involves the conversion of trigonal boronate ester linkages to tetrahedral anionic spiroborate linkages.

Superionic lithium transport via multiple coordination environments defined by two-anion packing.

Fast cation transport in solids underpins energy storage. Materials design has focused on structures that can define transport pathways with minimal cation coordination change, restricting attention to a small part of chemical space.
