  • Microstructural investigations of $(1-x)NdAlO_3-xCaTiO_3$ (NACT) complex perovskite compounds were carried out using X-ray diffractometry, neutron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. When $0.3{\leq}x{\leq}0.9$, NACT had not only the 1 : 1 chemical ordering of cations but also the antiphase and inphase tilting of oxygen octahedron and the antiparallel shift of cations. Both the antiphase boundaries and the ferroelastic domains were present in the microstructure. The long and straight ferroelastic domains became degenerate as x decreases. When x was smaller than 0.3, the chemical ordering was absent and the antiphase tilting of oxygen octahedron was observed. The defects like tangled dislocations and the second phase were also found in the microstructure.

  • Locus ordering is the necessary step in constructing genetic map, and the construction of reliable and fine genetic map is one of the most important issue in genetic research area. Locus ordering searches for the best locus order among the possible orders and it amounts to evaluating the maximum likelihood for each order. With only 10 loci, for example, there are 1,814,000 possible orders, and therefore, locus ordering entails a big computational problem. In this paper we suggest a useful algorithm for loci ordering via the Fiedler vector. The suggested algorithm is easy to compute and can handle many loci simultaneously. Furthermore, the required computation time is very short compared to others and the result of locus ordering is very accurate.

  • Maintaining a complex repairable system can be achieved by repairing, replacing, or any other activities. This paper proposes a joint optimization policy that is composed with ordering and replacing under minimal repair for the complex system. For this purpose, we derive the expected cost due to the minimal repair, ordering, downtime, inventory costs, and salvage value of units that follow generally distribution. Some properties about the optimum ordering policy that are suggested for our purpose shows that the optimum ordering policy minimizing the expected cost is either one of the two typical policies : (1) the original unit is replaced as soon as the ordered spare is delivered, or (2) the delivered spare is used as inventory part until the original unit fails.

  • In this work, we studied the effects of Sn addition on the ordering temperature of FePt thin film. The coercivity of FePtSn film was about 1000 Oe greater than the coercivity of FePt film for an annealing temperature of $600^{\circ}C$. Therefore, Sn addition was effective in promoting the $L1_0$ ordering and in reducing the ordering temperature of the FePt film. From our X-ray diffraction results, we found that in the as-deposited film, the addition of Sn induced a lattice expansion in disordered FePt thin films. After the annealing process, the excess Sn diffuses out from the ordered FePt thin film because of the difference in the solid solubility of Sn between the disordered and ordered phases. The existence of precipitates of Sn from the FePt lattice was deduced by Curie temperature measurements of the FePt and FePtSn films. Therefore, the key role played by the addition of Sn to the FePt film can be explained by a reduction in the activation energy for the $L1_0$ order-disorder transformation of FePt which originates from the high internal stress in the disordered phase induced by the supersaturated Sn atoms.

  • Intramolecular excimer formation of 1, 3-di(1-pyrenyl)propane (Py-3-Py) and fluorescence polarization of 1, 6-diphenyl-1, 3, 5-hexatriene (DPH) were used to investigate the effects of barbiturates on the fluidity of model membranes of phosphatidycholine (SPMVPC), phosphatidylserine (SPMVPS), and phosphatidylinositol (SPMVPI) fractions of synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV) isolated from bovine cerebral cortex. In a dose-dependent manner, barbiturates decreased the excimer to monomer fluorescence intensity ratio (I'/I) of Py-3-Py and increased the anisotropy(r), rotational relaxation time (P), limiting anisotropy $(r_infty)$, and order parameter (S) of DPH in SPMVPC, SPMVPS and SPMVPI. This indicates that barbiturates decreased both the lateral and rotational diffusion of the probes in SPMVPC, SPMVPS and SPMVPI. The relative potencies of barbiturates in ordering the membranes were in the order: pentobarbital > hexobarbital > amobarbital > phenobarbital. This order correlates well with the anesthetic potencies of barbiturates and the potencies for enhancement of $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid-stimulated chloride uptake. Thus, it is strongly suggested that a close relationship might exist between the membrane ordering effects of barbiturates and the chloride fluxes across SPMV.

  • FePt:Ag (100 nm) nanocomposite thin films were prepared on naturally-oxidized Si substrates by dc magnetron sputtering at room temperature. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are used to investigate the effects of annealing pressures on the ordering processes and microstructures of these films. The average sizes for the $L1_0$ ordered domains and the FePt grains are reduced to d = 9 nm and D = 13 nm from d = 19 nm and D = 34 nm, respectively, when the annealing pressure is enhanced to 0.6 GPa from room pressure at 873 K. Furthermore, the size distribution is improved into a narrow range. With increasing pressure, the coercivity of $L1_0$-FePt:Ag thin films decreases from 15.1 to 7.6 kOe. In the present study, the effects of high pressure on the $L1_0$ ordering processes and microstructures of FePt:Ag nanocomposite films were discussed.

  • Peierls instability and spin ordering of zigzag graphene nanoribbons (GNR) created on a fully hydrogenated graphene (graphane) are investigated as a function of their width using first-principles density-functional calculations within the generalized-gradient approximation. For the width containing a single zigzag C chain (N=1), we find the presence of a Peierls instability with a bond alternated structure. However, for width greater than N=1, the Peierls distortion is weakened or disappears because of the incommensurate feature of Fermi surface nesting due to the interaction of C chains. Instead, there exists the antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin ordering in which the edge states are ferromagnetically ordered but the two ferromagnetic (FM) edges are antiferromagnetically coupled with each other, showing that electron-lattice coupling and spin ordering in GNR are delicately competing at an extremely thin width of N=2. It is found that, as the width of GNR increases, the energy gain arising from spin ordering is enhanced, but the energy difference between the AFM and FM (where two edge states are ferromagnetically coupled with each other) orderings decreases.

  • In this study, we investigated the optical, magnetic, and electrical transport properties of $Si_{1-x}Mn_x$ (0.1 < x < 0.9) single crystals grown by the vertical Bridgman method. The alloys with a Mn concentration of up to 64% demonstrated weak ferromagnetic ordering around $T_C=30\;K$. The $Si_{0.25}Mn_{0.75}$ and $Si_{0.18}Mn_{0.82}$ alloys showed weak ferromagnetic ordering at 70 K and antiferromagnetic ordering at 104 K, as confirmed by magnetization, neutron diffraction, and transport studies.

  • This paper deals with a design problem of simulation for MIME (multi indenture and multi echelon) with lateral transshipment. Especially, we consider lateral transshipments in case that (S-1, S) ordering policy is used in multi echelon repair system. Some rules for ordering spare parts in lateral transshipments between the lowest-level units are studied and are implemented by an activity diagram in object-oriented method. By numerical examples, we compare regular (S-1, S) ordering policy and (S-1, S) policy with lateral transshipment.

  • We develop in this paper the likelihood ratio test (LRT) for testing $H_1 : F_1 \preceq F_2$ against $H_2 - H_1$ where $H_2$ imposes no restriction on $F_1$ and $F_2$ and '$\preceq$' means failure rate ordering. Both one and two-sample problems will be considered. In the one-sample case, one of the two distributions is known, while we assume in the other case both are unknown. We derive the asymptotic null distribution of the LRT statistic which will be of chi-bar-square type. The main issue here is to determine the least favorable distribution which is stochastically largest within the class of null distributions.
