In this study, differences of texture image and preference for men's suit fabrics according to mechanical properties, hand and fabric information were investigated. 55 subjects evaluated texture image and preference of 12 kinds of wool blended fabrics. For statistical analysis, t-test and pearson correlation coefficients were used. The results were as follows: Most of mechanical properties effected on texture images, and bending property and shearing property were effected on tactile preference and purchasing preference. For hand, objective hand values showed correlations with subjective texture images and preferences, but THV had almost no correlations. In sensory images according to presence of fabric information, fabrics were evaluated thinner, lighter, more pliable and smooth by cognition of wool blending ratio. For sensibility images, fabrics were evaluated more refined, intellectual, dignified and less practicable after recognize of wool blending ratio. In preferences, tactile preference was increased and purchasing preference was decreased after recognize fabric information. Therefore, significant differences of texture image and preference were observed according to presence of fabric information.

Underwater glider, as a new kind of autonomous underwater vehicles, has many merits such as long-range, extended-duration and low costs. The shape of underwater glider is an important factor in determining the hydrodynamic efficiency. In this paper, a high lift to drag ratio configuration, the Blended-Wing-Body (BWB), is used to design a small civilian under water glider. In the parametric geometric model of the BWB underwater glider, the planform is defined with Bezier curve and linear line, and the section is defined with symmetrical airfoil NACA 0012. Computational investigations are carried out to study the hydrodynamic performance of the glider using the commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code Fluent. The Kriging-based genetic algorithm, called Efficient Global Optimization (EGO), is applied to hydrodynamic design optimization. The result demonstrates that the BWB underwater glider has excellent hydrodynamic performance, and the lift to drag ratio of initial design is increased by 7% in the EGO process.

A natural rubber was blended with a butadiene rubber with different ratios. A natural rubber, along with three different blends, its ratio varying from 10 to 15 to 20 weight %, were prepared and tested. It was found that inclusion of the butadiene rubber increased cure time, compared to the natural rubber. It is speculated that increased free volume due to the inclusion of butadiene rubber contributed to this effect. Furthermore, inclusion of butadiene rubber led to increase hardness of a sphere, and as a result, the extent of rebound increased sharply.

In this work, the effect of blend on physical and electrical properties investigated. The two kinds of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) whose densities are evaluated at $0.9179[g/cm^3]$ and $0.9192[g/cm^3]$, respectively, were used and blended according to the different blend ratio. The LDPE with the blend ratio of 50[wt%] represented the lowest impulse breakdown strength, $F_{BImp}$ at $30[^{\circ}C]$, but the highest $F_{BImp}$ at $90[^{\circ}C]$. DC breakdown strength, $F_{BDC}$. decreased with the increase of blend ratio at $30[^{\circ}C$, but increased at $60[^{\circ}C]$. The current density decreased with a blend ratio up to 75 [wt%] at $90[^{\circ}C]$. By analyzing the diffraction patterns of XRD, we found that the LDPE with the blend ratio of 50 [wt%] represented the largest crystal size of (020) plane. We investigated the relationship between the effect of blend and electrical properties and these results are discussed.

Compared to gasoline engines, diesel engines with a relatively simple ignition system are more advantageous in the application of biodeisel fuel to engine. Then in this study the comparative analysis on the spray characteristics and combustion emissions characteristic between the biodiesel(soybean oil) and diesel, the fuel for commercial diesel engine, was performed with common rail injection system. Injection pressure and ratio of biodiesel blended fuel were selected as main experimental variables. Consequently, it can be found that there is no significant difference in the macro characteristics of the spray behavior(spray penetration and spray angle) in response to change in the blend ratio of soybean oil and diesel at a fixed injection pressure, in particular, soot creation in combustion emissions in the region of low pressure was greatly affected by the blend ratio of soybean oil, however, the creation in the region of high pressure was almost unaffected by the blend ratio because of promoted atomization.

The reological properties of doughs blended with cereal flours were investigated in the study. The doughs were prepared of wheat flours mixed with 10％, 20%, 30% and 40% ratio of rice flour, waxy-rice flour, brown-rice flour and soybean flour. Amylogram, farinogram, extensogram and SEM were used to measured thier special properties with graphs and photos. The results were obtained as followes; 1. Wheat dough formation after fermantation, showed "stringing" structure of small starch granules on the SEM photo. But the large starch granules contributed little to the structure formation in rice flours dough, and played relatively a little role in the structure formation of blended doughs of waxy-rice, brown-rice and soy- bean flours. 2. The absorption of flour composited rice and brown-rice, was lower than that of the control by Farinograph. It was decreased the farinograph absorption with the increase of replacement ratio of cereal flours. Dough development time of cereal blended flours decreased, but that time of waxy-rice and brown-rice were very similiar. Farinograph stability of rice, waxy-rice, brown-rice and soybean blended flours, had shorter than that of wheat-flour. 3. The results showed that cereal blended flours decreased the resistance to extention (elasticity) without affecting the extensibility in fermented dough by Extensograph. 4. The gelatinization temperature of wheat, rice, waxy-rice, and brown-rice were 55.0$^{\circ}C$, 64.0$^{\circ}C$, 58.0$^{\circ}C$ and 61.0$^{\circ}C$. But that of all cereal blended flours showed 58.0$^{\circ}C$ except 20% or 30% soybean blended flours. According to the amylogram, each maximum viscosity of rice flour and wheat flour was 1760 B.U.,760 B.U.. Soybean composite flours had significantly lowe. amylograph peak viscosity (300 B.U.) than that of the other composite flours (450 B.U.-1100 B.U.).

Numerical studies were conducted to investigate the internal flow field and combustion characteristics of DISI engine with methanol blended in gasoline. Dual injection was applied and the characteristics were compared to single injection strategy. The amount of the fuel injection was corresponded to air-fuel ratio of each fuel for complete combustion. The preforming model in this study, software STAR-CD was employed for both modeling and solving. The operating speed condition were at 4000 rpm/WOT (Wide open throttle) where the engine was fully warmed. The results of single injection with M28 showed that the uniformity, equivalence ratio, in-cylinder pressure and temperature increased comparing to gasoline (M0). When dual injection was applied, there was no significant change in uniformity and equivalence ratio but the in-cylinder pressure and temperature increased. When M28 fuel and single injection was applied, the CO (Carbon monoxide) and NO (Nitrogen oxides) emission inside the combustion chamber increased approximately 36%, 9% comparing with benchmarking case in cylinder prior to TWC (Three Way Catalytic converter). When dual stage injection was applied, both CO and NO emission amount increased.

UAVs for reconnaissance and intelligence operations require long endurance capability, which demands high efficiency of the propulsion system. The distributed propulsion system(DPS) generates the thrust by replacing a large propulsion system with a number of small propulsion systems. A DPS distributed along the wing span can produce gains in propulsion efficiency by reducing ejection velocity. Also, the ingestion of boundary layers through the distributed DPS inlet and ejecting flow from the outlet can improve the lift to drag ratio of the vehicle. This study investigates the effects of locations and size of the inlet and outlet of the DPS on the blended-wing-body design based on Eppler 337 airfoil, with a CFD tool. The fans in the DPS are modeled as actuator disks for computational efficiency. The best location and aspect ratio of the inlet and outlet are found from lift-to-drag ratio and pitching moment considerations.

To make up for the disadvantages of PVA gate, we blend PVP(20% wt) with PVA(5% wt) as a gate material. The best ratio for the mixture was 5:5, PVP-PVA blended gate used MIM structure showed better performance in leakage current and capacitance. PVP-PVA blended gate was fabricated by spin-coating process and pentacene was used as an organic TFT channel layer by thermal evaporation. Overall OTFT performance has also increased as PVP-PVA blended gate has relatively lower leakage current and higher capacitance than pure PVA gate has.

This study was conducted on the properties of exhaust emissions of diesel oil and fish oil blended with diesel oils using a direct injection diesel engine at different loads, and on the conditions of carbon deposits of diesel oil and 40% blend oil in the combustion chamber after 20 hours operation at $\frac{1]{2}$ load. The properties of exhaust emissions by fish oil blended with diesel oils showed no significant difference with diesel oil. However, soot emissions decreased, increasing the ratio of fish oil. Carbon deposits by fish oil blended with diesel oils were high level compared with diesel oil, which might be overcome by preheating of fuel oil and operating conditions.
