Unlike spherical drop impact, ellipsoidal drop impact can control the bouncing height on a heated surface by significantly altering impact behavior. To scrutinize the effect of the aspect ratio (AR) of the drop on the bounce suppression, in this study, non-axisymmetric spreading behaviors are observed from two side views and characterized based on the spreading width of the drop for horizontal principal axes. In addition, the maximum spreading width is investigated for various ARs. The results show that as the AR increases, the maximum spreading width of the minor axis increases, whereas that of the major axis shows no significant variation. In the regime of high AR and high impact velocity, liquid fragmentations by three parts are observed during bouncing. These fragmentations are discussed in this work. The hydrodynamic features of ellipsoidal drop impact will help understand bouncing control on non-wetting surfaces for several applications, such as self-cleaning and spray cooling.

Recently, hydrogen energy has been in the spotlight as an alternative to diminishing fossil fuels and as a potential solution to environmental pollution. The development of hydrogen-fueled vehicles and the demands for improved fuel efficiencies have resulted in the need to increase the volume of the hydrogen pressure vessels. Pressure vessels having an elliptical bottom, as opposed to one that is hemispherical, allow for a greater capacity. However, there are insufficient studies on the feasibility of the forming process required for an elliptical bottom. In this study, the liner capacity is calculated according to the ratios of the major to the minor axes of the elliptical bottom part in a hydrogen pressure vessel. Structural safety is verified through finite element analyses, and the results are compared to the theoretical results. The feasibility of the proposed elliptical shape of the pressure vessel bottom, while filled to maximum capacity, is validated through forming analysis.

In the present study, the combustion characteristics of methane and hydrogen-supplemented methane as alternative fuels for automotive vehicles were investigated at various hydrogen substitution rate, ignition position and ignition methods in a CVCC. The main results obtained from the study can be summarized as follow. In case of center ignition and neat methane-air mixture, the flame propagation processes are propagated with an elliptical shape, but they are changed an instable elliptical shape flame with very regular cells and higher velocity by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate. In case of side, 0.5R ignition and neat methane-air mixture, the flame propagation processes are propagated with an instable elliptical shape flame, but they are changed from an instable elliptical shape to wedge shape flame with very irregular cells and higher velocity by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate. Although the flame propagation shape with ignition position and ignition devices was not differ, the flame area of MSCDI device was a little larger than it of CDI device at the same time.

This paper proposes a robust human detection method irrespective of their pose variation using the multiple oriented 2D elliptical filters (MO2DEFs). The MO2DEFs can detect the humans regardless of their poses unlike existing object oriented scale adaptive filter (OOSAF). To overcome OOSAF's limitation, we introduce the MO2DEFs whose shapes look like the oriented ellipses. We perform human detection by applying four different 2D elliptical filters with specific orientations to the 2D spatial-depth histogram and then by taking the thresholds over the filtered histograms. In addition, we determine the human pose by using convolution results which are computed by using the MO2DEFs. We verify the human candidates by either detecting the face or matching head-shoulder shapes over the estimated rotation. The experimental results showed that the accuracy of pose angle estimation was about 88%, the human detection using the MO2DEFs outperformed that of using the OOSAF by $15{\sim}20%$ especially in case of the posed human.

The vertical eye size were in case of below 2.4 mm (2%), 2.5-2.9 mm (40%), 3.0-3.5 mm (57%), and in case of high 3.6 mm (1%). 2. The horzontal eye size were in case of below 1.1 mm (52%), 1.2-1.4 mm (28%), 1.5-1.7 mm (18%), and in case of high 1.8 mm (2%). 3. As a whole, the face types were oval type (29%), round type (24%), square type (18%), and triangle type (2%). 4. As the male, the face types were oval type (32%), round type (10%), square type (26%), and triangle type (32%). 5. As the female, the face types were oval type (18%), round type (40%), square type (12%), and triangle type (30%). 6. As a whole, the FPD size were in case of larger than PD (49%), in case of suitable (25%), in case of smaller than PD (49%). 7. As the male, the FPD size were in case of larger than PD (28%), in case of suitable (36%), and in case of smaller than PD (32%). 8. As the female, the FPD size were in case of larger than PD (44%), in case of suitable (26%), and in case of smaller than PD (30%).

상업적으로 많이 이용되는 폴리에틸렌테레프탈레이트(PET)에 액정중합체(LCP)인 열방성 폴리에스터를 첨가하여 유변학적 특성을 조사하고 전단속도와 혼합비에 따른 LCP domain의 형태 변화를 고찰하였다. 모체고분자 내 구형과 타원형을 이루는 LCP domain들 은 신장력에 의해 피브릴 구조의 변형되고 이 피브릴은 흐름방향으로 배향되어 용융체에 윤 활제와 같은 역할을 함으로써 용융점도의 감소를 보이는데 특히 높은 전단속도 영역에서 LCP가 30wt%까지 첨가될수록 큰 폭으로 감소하였다. 주사식 현미경(SEM)의 관찰로부터 LCP domain의 피브릴구조를 확인할 수 있었고 또한 LCP domain의 형태 변화가 용융점도 가 감소에 직접 관계됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

전북진안의 운장산일대에 분포하는 백악기 홍색 흑운모 화강암류는 연구지역의 동부와 서부에서 각각 원형 및 타원형의 독립된 암체로 발달한다. 서부 화강암체의 흑운모연령 (K/Ar 법)은 백악기초기(김옥준, 1971)로 보고된 바 있어, 같은 암석학적 특성을 가지는 동부암체도 거의 같은 시기의 것으로 해석된다. 동부와 서부 화강암체에는 공동구조(miarolitic)가 도처에서 산점상으로 발달하며, 이들은 부분적으로 다소 큰 형태를 이루기도 한다. (중략)

Two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes flow solver is developed using SIMPLER method to study the unsteady viscous flow physics over two-dimensional ellipses. Unsteady viscous flows over various thickness-to-chord ratios of 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2 elliptic cylinders are simulated at different Reynolds numbers of 200, 400, and 1,000. This study is focused on the understanding the effects of Reynolds number and elliptic cylinder thickness on the drag and lift forces. The present numerical solutions are compared with available experimental and numerical results and show a good agreement. Through this study, it is observed that the Reynolds number and the cylinder thickness affect not only the frequency of the force oscillations but also the mean values and the amplitudes of the total drag and lift forces significantly.
