The ignition characteristics of a $CH_4$/hot air counterflow diffusion flame were investigated numerically using a flame-controlling continuation method. For the chemical reactions, the GRI-v1.2 reaction mechanism was used in the simulation. The maximum flame temperature was presented in the space of the inverse global strain rate, and showed S-curve-type behavior. The flame temperatures and velocities of the upper and middle branches were compared for different global strain rates. In addition, the global strain rate was compared with the local strain rates defined at the flame surface and the boundaries of the fuel and oxidizer sides of the fuel/air mixing layer. These local strain rates correlated well with the global strain rate.

Amorphous FeCoSiB films with high saturation magnetostriction and excellent soft magnetic properties have been studied to evaluate their strain sensitivity. Films were subjected to a strain by bending of their substrates, which caused a change in the magnetic anisotropy of films via magnetoelastic coupling. Films were exhibited a figure of merit $F=({\Delta}{\mu}/{\mu})/{\varepsilon}$ (change in film permeability $\mu$ per unit strain $\varepsilon$) of $1.2{\times}10^5$, which is comparable with that of amorphous ribbons. To make a study of application of magnetostrictive films as strain sensor elements, we have prepared a micro-patterned film by means of the photolithography and ion milling processes. Impedance change in the patterned films, when strain was applied, was measured over the frequency range from 1 MHz to 1 GHz. Reflecting a large value of figure of merit F, a variation of 46% impedance of films was shown at 100 MHz frequency when a strain of $300{\times}10^{-6}$ was applied.

그래핀의 우수한 기계적 물성에 관한 연구가 보고된 이후 그래핀의 기계적 특성을 이용한 다양한 어플리케이션에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 기계적 특성을 이용한 다양한 어플리케이션 중 가장 대표적인 것은 발생한 스트레인을 측정하는 스트레인 게이지일 것이다. 때문에 본 연구에서는 다양한 기계적 활용 방안 중 스트레인 게이지를 목표로 그래핀을 이용한 스트레인 게이지의 가능성에 관한 실험을 진행하였다. 먼저 그래핀 내에서의 Piezo-resistive 효과에 관한 기초 테스트를 진행을 통해 그래핀의 gauge factor 수치가 2.5가량이 나옴을 확인하였다. 이 때 사용된 그래핀의 경우 Ni 촉매층을 이용하여 CVD 장비를 이용하여 사용되었고 7%의 투과도를 보였다. 추가적으로 이 같은 그래핀의 Piezo-resistive 특성을 이용하여 우리는 두 종류의 변형률 센서를 제작하였다. 한 가지는 기존의 단일 게이지의 경우 미리 지정된 방향의 변형률 정도만을 측정할 수 있다는 단점을 극복하기 위한 rosette 형태의 스트레인 게이지를 제작함으로써 변형률 뿐만 아니라 표면에서 발생하는 주변형률의 방향을 측정할 수 있었다. 또한 제작된 스트레인 센서를 장갑위에 부착 함으로써 다가올 입는 형태의 전사소자에 응용이 가능한 모양의 변형률 센서 제작에 성공하였다.

The radiation effects on the auto-ignition and extinction characteristics of a non-premixed fuel-air counterflow field were numerically investigated. A detailed reaction mechanism of GRI-v3.0 was used for the calculation of chemical reactions and the optically-thin radiation model was adopted in the simulations. The flame-controlling continuation method was also used in the simulation to predict the auto-ignition point and extinction limits precisely. As a result, it was found that the maximum H radical concentration, $(Y_H)_{max}$, rather than the maximum temperature was suitable to understand the ignition and extinction behaviors. S-, C- and O-curves, which were well known from the previous theory, were identified by investigating the $(Y_H)_{max}$. The radiative heat loss fraction ($f_r$) and spatially-integrated heat release rate (IHRR) were introduced to grasp each extinction mechanism. It was also found that the $f_r$ was the highest at the radiative extinction limit. At the flame stretch extinction limit, the flame was extinguished due to the conductive heat loss which attributed to the high strain rate although the heat release rate was the highest. The radiation affected on the radiative extinction limit and auto-ignition point considerably, however the effect on the flame stretch extinction limit was negligible. A stable flame regime defined by the region between each extinction limit became wide with increasing the fuel temperature.

This paper describes on the fabrication and characteristics of a ceramic thin-film pressure sensor based on Ta-N strain-gauges for harsh environment applications. The Ta-N thin-film strain-gauges are sputter-deposited onto a micromachined Si diaphragms with buried cavity for overpressure protectors. The proposed device takes advantages of the good mechanical properties of single-crystalline Si as diaphragms fabricated by SDB and electrochemical etch-stop technology, and in order to extend the operating temperature range, it incorporates relatively the high resistance, stability and gauge factor of Ta-N thin-films. The fabricated pressure sensor presents a low temperature coefficient of resistance, high-sensitivity, low non-linearity and excellent temperature stability. The sensitivity is $1.097-1.21\;mV/V{\codt}kgf/cm^2$ in the temperature range of $25-200^{\circ}C$ and the maximum non-linearity is 0.43%FS.

This numerical study was to investigate the effect of $CO_2$ addition on the structures and NOx formation characteristics in $CH_4$ counterflow diffusion flame. The importance of radiation effect was identified and $CO_2$ addition effect was investigated in terms of thermal and chemical reaction effect. Also the causes of NOx reduction were clarified by separation method of each formation mechanisms. The results were as follows : The radiation effect was intensified by $CO_2$ addition. Thermal effect mainly contributed to the changes in flame structure and the amount of NO formation but the chemical reaction effect also cannot be neglected. The reduction of thermal NO was dominant with respect to reduction rate, but that of prompt NO was dominant with respect to total amount.

The transient process simplified by the 1-D stretched laminar flame formed at the fuel-oxidizer interface was investigated using the coherent flame sheet model. Under the combustion environment of high temperatures and pressures the results show that the time required to reach the steady state was relatively short compared to the reverse of strain rate. Hence the employment of the tabulation of precalculated steady-flame results in the calculation of turbulent diffusion flames using the coherent flame sheet model is concluded valid, Also upstream temperatures were found to have only a minor effect on the nondimensional flame temperature and nondimensional fuel even through the letter is sensitive to pressure changes.

본 연구에서는 Advanced Rheometric Expansion System(ARES)를 사용하여 대진폭 진동 전단 변형하에서 발생하는 폴리이소부틸렌(PIB) 농후 용액의 비선형 점탄성 거동을 저 장탄성율과 동적점도의 변형량 의존성 및 응력파형의 fast Fourier transform(FFT) 해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 스트레인 진촉을 단계적으로 증가시키면서 측정한 동적 점탄성으로 부터 저장탄성율 및 동적점도의 선형응답한계를 결정하고 이들에 미치는 각주파수의 영향을 조사 하였다. 그리고 응력파형의 Fourier 전개로부터 유도되는 비선형 점탄성함수를 사용하여 비 선형 거동을 설명하였다. 끝으로 비선형 점탄성 거동의 정도를 나타내는 비선형 거동 지수 를 정의하고 이들에 미치는 각주파수의 영향에 대해 검토하였다. 이상의 연구를 통해 얻어 진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다.(1) 선형 응답한계는 고분자 용액의 특성시간의 역수보다 높은 각주파수 범위에서는 일정한 값을 유지하지만 특성시간의 역수보다 낮은 각주파수 영 역에서는 각주파수가 감소할수록 증가한다. (2)선형응답한계 이상의 대변형하에서는 3차비선 형 점탄성 함수 이상의 고차항의 영향이 크게 작용하며 이로인해 비선형 거동이 발생된다. (3) 스트레인 진폭을 단계적으로 증가시키면서 측정한 저장탄성율 및 동적점도의 변형량 의 존성은 응력파형의 Fourier transform으로부터 유도된 1차 비선형 점탄성 함수의 변형량 의 존성을 나타낸다 (4) 저장탄성율 및 동적점도의 변형량 의존성으로부터 유도된 비선형 거동 지수는 탄성적 서질과 점성적 성질에 대한 비선형 특성을 평가하기 위한 유요한 방법으로 인정된다. (5) 비선형 점탄성 거동의 정도를 나탄는 비선형 거동지수는 특정한 각주파수에서 최대치를 가지며 또한 탄성적 거동이 점성적 거동에 비해 더욱 큰 각주파수 의존성을 나타낸다.

We report a resonance fiber Bragg sensor interrogation based on a Fourier domain mode-locking (FDML) laser. The FDML laser is constructed based on a conventional ring laser cavity configuration with fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter (FFP-TF). There are two sensor parts which are composed with two FBGs inside the laser cavity. Each sensor part provides a separate laser cavity for the FDML laser. The resonance frequencies of the laser cavities are 46.687 kHz and 44.340 kHz, respectively. We applied a static and a dynamic strain on the FBG sensor system. The slope coefficients of the measured relative wavelength shift and relative time interval from the static strain are found to be $0.61pm/{\mu}{\epsilon}$ and $0.8ns/{\mu}{\epsilon}$, respectively.
