  • Publication number: 20250064313
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an all-round observation under-actuated capsule robot and an axis rolling-over locomotion method thereof by magnetic field control. A radially magnetized NdFeB magnet ring is loaded into an inner cavity of a capsule sphere in a non-connected way, and the NdFeB magnet ring independently idles with the rotating magnetic field around a capsule axis and is completely suspended in the inner cavity filled with silicone oil in the capsule sphere. Under the drive of a coaxial following magnetic moment, the under-actuated capsule sphere cannot rotate around the capsule axis, but the capsule axis can roll synchronously with the rotation axis of the magnetic field. The present invention increases the scanning range of the capsule, enhances environmental adaptability, and has high accuracy of fixed point posture adjustment of the capsule, rolling locomotion stability, good visual observation effect and good application prospect.

Each output stage includes STT-MTJs, of which a quantity is equal to a half of a quantity of STT-MTJs in a just previous stage. Two STT-MTJs in the previous stage and one STT-MTJ in the subsequent stage form a double-input single-output in-memory computing unit. Each double-input single-output in-memory computing unit can implement the four logical operations, i.e., NAND, NOR, AND, and OR, under different configurations. Data storage and logical operations can be realized under the same circuit architecture, and reconfigurations among different logic can be achieved.

  • Patent number: 11753724
    Abstract: Methods of forming a desired geometry at a location on a superalloy part are disclosed. The method may include directing particles of a powder mixture including a low melt temperature superalloy powder and a high melt temperature superalloy powder to the location on the superalloy part at a velocity sufficient to cause the superalloy powders to deform and to form a mechanical bond but not a metallurgical bond to the superalloy part. The directing of particles continues until the desired geometry is formed. Heat is applied to the powder mixture on the repair location. The heat causes the low melt temperature superalloy powder to melt, creating the metallurgical bonding at the location. Another method uses the same directing to form a preform for repairing the location on the part. The low melt temperature superalloy powder melts at less than 1287° C., and the high melt temperature superalloy powder melts at greater than 1287° C.
