The $^1H-nmr$ lineshapes of $H_2O$ in the solution containing $Al^{3+}$ ion have been measured as a function of temperature and $H^+$-ion concentration. Above [$H^+$] = 0.06, the lineshape were analyzed by the uncoupled two-site exchange model. From the proton exchange rate between hexaaquaaluminium ion and bulk water as a function of H-ion concentration. These kinetic data could be fitted to a following linear rate law; that is; 1/${\tau}$ = k$_1$/12 + $k_2$[$H^+$]/6. The following proton exchange parameters were obtained; $k_1^{298}$ = 38.5s$^{-1}$ ${\{Delta}H_1^{\neq}$ = $42.9kJ mole^{-1}$ ${\{Delta}S_1^{\neq}$ = -48.6J $mole^{-1}K^{-1}$ $k_2^{298}$ = $172s^{-1}mole^{-1}$ ${\{Delta}H_2^{\neq}$ = 27.8kJ $mole^{-1}$ ${\{Delta}S_2^{\neq}$ = -90.3J $mole^{-1}K^{-1}$ These activation parameters are indicating an associative interchange, Ia, mechanism for the acid-hydrolysis of hexaaquaaluminium ion and the proton exchange between the hydration spheres of $Al^{3+}$ and $H^+$.

The purpose of this study is to develop the technique of energy recovery and energy saving by using the optimization of heat exchanger network synthesis. This article proposes a new method of determining the optimal target of a heat exchanger network synthesis problem of which data feature multiple pinch points. The system separation method we suggest here is to subdivide the original system into independent subsystems with one pinch point. The optimal cost target was evaluated and the original pinch rules at each subsystem were employed. The software developed in this study was applied to the Alko prosess, which is an alcohol production process, for the synthesis of heat exchanger network. It was possible to save about 15% of the total annual cost.

This paper considers the cooperative control problem for multiple leaders and a single follower with interactions. The leaders are controllable, and the follower has interactions with all leaders and is controlled by the interactions. Then, we study the cooperative control problem that achieves the consensus by controlling the leaders. The leaders and the follower are modeled by the single-integrator and the double-integrator, respectively, and it is assumed that the interactions have the nonlinearities. The leaders can estimate the interaction between the follower and exchange the estimated information with neighbors. Then, this paper proposes the consensus-based cooperative control algorithm using the information exchange of the estimated interactions and the virtual velocity variables to achieve the velocity consensus. We analyze the convergence of the agents to the common state based on the Lasalle's Invaraince Principle. Finally, we provide the numerical example to validate the theoretical results.

To acquire the hints of the development of children's multiplication strategies, this study tried to find the differences between the students who learned multiplication and the students who didn't. And we also tried to explore their acquired computational resources. As a result, we confirm that there is a certain direction on the development of children's multiplication strategies according to their grades and the level of acquirement of mathematical knowledge. Moreover, we comprehend that commutative law is an important part of the strategies on two-digit multiplication and that acquisition of the computational resources must precede the learning of multiplication strategies. In the end part, this article proposes a new taxonomy of strategies for multiplication. To support our proposal, we integrated the prior researches with our findings.

The rheological properties of Wyoming bentonites are strongly influenced by the size of particles, cation exchangeable capacity, arrangement and morphology of clay mineral. This paper presents the results of rheological investigations on the Wyoming bentonites aqueous dispersions: two types of particle flocculation were considered. For the Wyoming bentonite, 0g/L and 30g/L NaCl equivalent salinity were added in fresh and salt water to examine the rheological behavior. This paper examined the general rheological characteristics, compatibility of rheological models and correlation between soil structure and change in rheological properties of Wyoming bentonite caused by increasing salinity. From flow curves of bentonites hydrated with fresh water and salt water, the observed general flow behavior is very close to shear thinning with yield stress (or ideal Bingham fluid with yield stress and plastic viscosity). However, the change of shear stress at the same shear rate is clear, particularly for lower shear rate. Well-known rheological models are used to fit the data. There is a good agreement between rheological model and data: Carreau, Herschel-Bulkley and power-law for S=0g/L and bilinear, Herschel-Bulkley and power-law for S=30g/L. It may be due to the fact that the internal structural bonding (strong modification of particle-particle interactions from edge-to-edge and/or edge-to-face to face-to-face) in soil matrix is affected from the evolution of rheological properties with different salinities.

In this paper, we take advantage of the characteristics of optical burst switching (OBS) to support service-differentiation in optical networks. With the offset time between control packet and burst data, the proposed scheme uses different offset time of each service class. As contrasted with the Previous method, in which the high Priority service use only long offset time, it derives the burst loss rate as a QoS parameter in consideration of conservation law and given service-differential ratios and decides a reasonable offset time for this QoS finally Firstly proposed method classifies services into one of high or low class and is an algorithm deciding the offset time for supporting the required QoS of high class. In order to consider the multi-classes environment, we expand the analysis method of first algorithm and propose the second algorithm. It divides services into one of high or low group according to their burst loss rate and decides the offset time for high group, and lastly cumulates the offset time of each class. The proposed algorithms are evaluated through simulation. The result of simulation is compared with that of analysis to verify the proposed scheme.

고체산화물연료전지는 청정에너지원으로써 기존의 발전방식을 대신할 차세대 에너지원으로 각광 받고 있다. 고체산화물 연료전지는 고온에서 작동하는 특성상 실험을 통하여 전극미세구조 및 구동조건을 최적화하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 본 연구는 전기화학식을 이용한 전산모사를 통해서 고체산화물 연료전지의 구동조건에 따른 성능 평가 및 전극의 미세구조 최적화 과정을 수행하였다. 전극 내 전달현상을 무시하고 오직 전기화학반응만을 고려한 전산모사는 단전지의 전극미세구조 및 구동조건에 따른 전지성능을 빠르게 예측할 수 있으며, 이를 기반으로 다양한 조건에서 얻은 전지 성능 데이터를 통해 전극미세구조를 최적화하였다. 개회로전압, 활성화분극, 저항분극, 물질수송손실을 표현하기 위하여 Nernst 식, Butler-Voler 식, 옴의 법칙, dusty-gas 모델을 각각 사용하였으며, 전극미세구조 및 구동조건의 변화는 물질확산계수 및 교환전류밀도를 통하여 그 영향이 전지성능에 반영된다. 온도, 압력, 주입 연료의 조성에 대한 성능평가가 수행되었으며, 1023K, 1 bar의 조건하에서 최적의 단전지 성능을 위한 기공도와 기공크기를 조사하였다. 더 향상된 단전지 성능 확보를 위해서 실험에서 쓰이는 기능층(functional layer)과 유사하게 넓은 반응 면적과 원활한 반응물 및 생성물의 이동을 보장하도록 기공도 및 기공크기를 그레이딩한 전극구조(graded-electrode)를 디자인하고 성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과 기존의 전지구조 대신에 그레이딩된 전극을 사용할 경우 50%이상 향상된 전지성능을 예측할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we study the consensus problem for multi-agent systems with input saturations. The goal of consensus is to achieve a swarming behavior of multi-agent systems by reaching the agreement through information exchange. This paper considers agents modeled by first-order dynamics with input saturations. In order to guarantee the global convergence of the agents, it is assumed that the agents are stable. Moreover, considering the disturbances, we propose the PI based duplex control method to achieve the consensus. The proposed P controller and I controller are composed of different information network. Then, we investigate the conditions of the information networks and the control gains of P, I controllers to achieve the consensus applying the Lyapunov stability theorem and the Lasalle's Invariance Principle. Finally, we conduct the simulations to validate the theoretical results.

In this paper, we study the containment control problem for second-order multi-agent systems, which consists of multiple leaders and followers. The goal is to drive the followers toward the convex hull spanned by the leaders. Thus, the swarm behavior can be obtained by controlling the entire group by the leaders. This paper considers the leaders move at a constant speed and the followers have input saturations. Moreover, we assume that the followers can exchange information with neighbors, and only relative state information is available. Under these assumptions, we propose the Proportional-Integral based distributed control algorithm to solve the containment control problem with moving leaders. Moreover, based on Lasalle's invariance principle, the conditions for the control gains that guarantee the convergence of the followers to the convex hull spanned by the leaders are investigated, and it was shown that it can be designed only using the system parameter. Finally, the simulations are conducted to validate the theoretical result.
