The effect of specimen geometry on the bending and tensile strengths of dissimilar joints ($\beta-Si_3N_4/S45C$) with copper interlayers was evaluated. The average bending strength of specimens with circular cross sections was higher than that of specimens with rectangular cross sections. The crack initiation stress ($\sigma_i$) was successfully determined by the acoustic emission (AE) method and was approximately 60~80% of the bending strength. The residual stresses near the interfaces on the ceramic side were measured by X-ray diffraction before conducting the bending test. The bending strength and the crack initiation stress decreased with an increase in the residual stresses. The effect of the bending strain component was evaluated by the tensile testing; the tensile strength decreased with an increase in the bending strain component and was approximately 80% of the bending strength.

In this study, a simplified axisymmetric model is proposed for the problem of compressible internal flow past a microgap. Using numerical and experimental methods, the phenomena of choked flows are observed; these flows are induced by the acceleration of subsonic flows past the narrow cross-section of an annular shape made by a microgap. The relation between mass flow rate and differential pressure is obtained, and by comparing the result with experimental results, the reliability of the numerical results is discussed. The generation of a supersonic jet flow and its diffraction are visualized by performing the numerical analysis of axisymmetric compressible Navier-Stokes equations. This investigation greatly extends the physical understanding of the axisymmetric compressible flow, which has a wide range of engineering applications, e.g., in the case of valves in automotive power systems.

$Ni_{0.65}Zn_{0.35}Cu_{0.1}Fe{1.9}O_4$ has been studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure is found to be a cubic spinel with the lattice constant $a_0=8.390{\AA}$. Mossbauer spectra of $Ni_{0.65}Zn_{0.35}Cu_{0.1}Fe{1.9}O_4$ has been taken at various temperatures ranging from 12 K to 705 K. The isomer shift indicates that iron ions are ferric at tetrahedral [A] and octahedral sites [B], respectively. The Neel temperature is determined to be $T_N=705\;K$. As the temperature increases toward $T_N$ a systematic line broadening effect in the Mossbauer spectrum is observed and interpreted to originate from different temperature dependencies of the magnetic hyperfine fields at various iron sites. The quadrupole splitting just on $T_N$ is 0.41 mm/s whereas the quadrupole shift below $T_N$ vanishes. This implies that the orientation of the magnetic hyperfine field with respect to be principal axes of the electric field gradient is random.

The permeability vs. temperature curve, the loss factor and the microstructure of a commercial Mn-Zn ferrites were investigated by X-ray diffractometer, SEM and LCR meter, where the additives, such as $SnO_{2}$ and $GeO_{2}$, were added to the main composition. Their wt% were 0.05, 0.3 and 1.0, respectively. When the content of additives increased, the SPM (Secondary Peak Maximum) of the permeability moved from $80^{\circ}C$ to below the room temperature. This movement, without the significant change of the microstructure, is because Sn and Ge, having the different ionic radius, were soluble in the matrix. There was no variation of the permeability with the frequency up to 100 kHz. And the loss factor showed the maximum value at 10 kHz.

Polycrystalline thin films of La$_{2}$3/Sr$_{1}$3/MnO$_3$(LSMO) were prepared by water-based sol-gel processing on thermally oxidized Si(100) substrate. The thickness dependence of the low-field tunnel-type magnetoresistance properties at room temperature was studied. Tunnel-type magnetoresistance at low-field is found to be strongly dependent on film thickness. Maximum value of tunnel-type magnetoresistance of LSMO thin films was appeared at the film thickness of ~1500 $\AA$. This behavior can be explained in terms of dead layer between LSMO thin film and Si(100) substrate and thermal lattice strain effect in the LSMO thin films.

Cholesteryl pentanoate $(C_{32}O_2H_{54})$ is orthorhombic, space group $P2_12_12_1$, with a = 21.930(3), b = 21.404(3), c = 6.419(5) $\AA$, Z = 4, V = 3012.8(5)$\AA$$^3$, $D_c$ = 1.04 g$cm^{-3}$, ${\lambda}(Mo\; K{\alpha}$ = 0.71069 $\AA$, $\mu$ = 0.58 $cm^{-1}$, F(000) = 1048, T = 298, R = 0.086 for 1502 unique observed reflections with I > 1.0 $\sigma$ (I). The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by cascade diagonal least-squares refinement. The C-H bond lengths and the methyl groups are fixed and refined as their ideal geometry. A comparison with other cholesteryl esters gives normal structure for the tetracyclic ring, while the tail regions of the side chain and the ester group which stands on end, show a variation from their normal values, presumably due to thermal effects. The molecules are stacked together by non-bonded van der Waals forces with the shortest intermolecular distance of 3.529 $\AA$.

In the case of an imaging system affected by aberrations which are not precisely known, the effect of aberrations can be minimized and near-diffraction-limited images can be restored by introducing artificial random phase fluctuations in the exit pupil of the imaging system and using bispectral speckle imaging. In order to determine the optimum value of the correlation length for Gaussian random phase model, computer simulation is performed for 50 image frames of a point object in the presence of defocus, spherical aberration, coma, astigmatism of 1 wave, respectively. In terms of the criterion of performance, the FWHM of the point spread function, normalized peak intensity, MTF and visual inspection of the restored object are employed. The optimum value for the rms difference $\sigma$ of aberration on the exit pupil in the interval of Fried parameter ${\Upsilon}_0$ is given by 0.27-0.53 wave for spherical aberration, and 0.24-0.36 wave for defocus and astigmatism, respectively. It is found that the bispectral speckle imaging technique does not give good results in the case of coma.

Removal and mineralization of dissolved uranium by bacteria in KURT (KAERI Underground Research Tunnel), Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) was investigated. Two different bacteria, IRB (iron-reducing bacteria) and SRB (sulfate-reducing bacteria) was used, and minerals formed by these bacteria were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Compared to uranyl ions, ferric ions were preferentially reduced by IRB, showing that there is no significant reduction and removal of uranium. However, uranium concentration considerably decreased by addition of Mn(II). Results show that a sulfide mineral such as mackinawite (FeS) is formed by SRB respiration through combination of Fe(II) and S without manganese sulfide formation. In the presence of Mn(II), however, uranium is removed effectively, suggesting that the sorption and incorporation of uranium could be affected by Mn(II) onto the sulide minerals.

The direct synthesis of $C_2$ chemical directly from methane was studied by employing catalysts with ordered mesopores in a dielectric barrier discharge plasma reactor. The reaction was carried out using MgO/OMA (ordered mesoporous alumina), $MgO/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ and $MgO/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ as catalysts. When MgO/OMA was applied, it showed excellent performance in the plasma reactor using pulse-type power supply and the selectivity of $C_2$ chemicals was measured as 67%. The effects of metal oxide type, textural property of support, alumina phase and power supply type on catalytic performance were investigated especially in terms of $C_2$ chemical formation. BET (Brunauer, Emmett, Teller), X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope and thermogravimetric analysis were used to investigate the characterization of the catalyst before and after the reaction.

In this paper, we proposed indoor positioning system using RSS(Received Signal Strength) positioning method and TSS(Transmission Signal Strength). The main point in the paper is to improve reliability of accuracy positioning with the area recognition algorithm and probabilistic algorithm, which can be effectively used indoor. In the test in 1-dimensional or 2-dimensional spaces, also we checked effective positioning system considered environment of propagation that is changed by reflection, refraction and multipath in according to space form. It is necessary to find place where urgent situation happen and quickly to respond the situation for patients or the weak. Therefore, we expect the positioning system proposed can apply to the field of traffic IT.
