In this paper, we investigated the electrical properties change of 6,13-bis(triisopropyl-silylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) depending on polymer blend. We fabricated organic thin film transistor (OTFT) using blending solution of small molecule and polymer. In this study poly(2-methoxy-5-(2-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene-vinylene) (MEH-PPV), poly (9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), poly [N,N'-bis(4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine] (poly-TPD), poly(${\alpha}$-methyl styrene), Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) are used as a polymer. Fabricated OTFT with blending solution of TIPS-pentacene and PVK shows best performance in this experiment. OTFT fabricated by blending solution of TIPS-pentacene and PVK shows field effect mobility of 0.0189 $cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, on/off ratio of 1.9E-5 and threshold voltage of 7.4 V.

Cement bonded boards of 10 mm in thickness were produced from the mixture of Gmelina arborea sawdust and corn cob particles. The strength and dimensional stability of cement bonded composites produced from these two mixtures were examined. A total of thirty experimental boards were produced at density level of 1,000 kg/㎥ with cement to fibre ratio of 2.5:1 and 3:1 and five (5) blending proportions of G. arborea sawdust to corn cob particles of 100:0; 75:25; 50:50; 25:75 and 100:0. The effect of the cement to fibre ratio and blending proportion on the Water Absorption (WA), Thickness Swelling (TS), Modulus of Rupture (MOR), and Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) were determined. The result indicates that as the mixing ratio of cement to fibre and blending proportion of maize cob (75%) to G. arborea (25%) increased, the thickness swelling, water absorption decreased, whereas the MOR and MOE increased. It also shows that most dimensionally stable and flexural strength boards were produced at the highest level of mixing ratios (3:1) and blending proportion of G. arborea to corn cob 25:75. However, the analysis of variance shows that TS and WA were significantly different, whereas, MOE and MOR were not significantly affected by mixing ratios and blending proportions. Finding of this study has shown that maize cob particles are suitable for cement bonded board production.

Co-firing of biomass with coal is a promising combustion technology in a coal-fired power plant. However, it still requires verifications to apply co-firing in an actual boiler. In this study, data from the Thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA) and Drop tube furnace(DTF) were used to obtain the combustion characteristics of biomass when co-firing with coal. The combustion characteristics were verified using experimental results including reactivity from the TGA and Unburned carbon(UBC) data from the DTF. The experiment also analyzed with the variation of the biomass blending ratio and biomass particle size. It was determined that increasing the biomass blending ratio resulted in incomplete chemical reactions due to insufficient oxygen levels because of the rapid initial combustion characteristics of the biomass. Thus, the optimum blending condition of the biomass based on the results of this study was found to be 5 while oxygen enrichment reduced the increase of UBC that occurred during combustion of blended biomass and coal.

The engine performance and combustion characteristics of methanol blended fuel in spark ignition engine were discussed on the basis of experimental investigation. The effects of methanol blending fuel on combustion in cylinder were investigated under various conditions of engine cycle and blending ratio. The results showed that the engine performance was influenced by the methanol blending ratio and the variations of operating conditions of test engine. The increase of fuel temperature brought on the improvement of combustion characteristics such as cylinder pressure, the rate of pressure rise and heat release in an engine. The burning rate of fuel-air mixture, the exhaust emissions and the other characteristics of performance were discussed also.

This paper describes Facial Expression Explorer to search for the components of a facial expression and to map the expression to other expressionless figures like a robot, frog, teapot, rabbit and others. In general, it is a time-consuming and laborious job to create a facial expression manually, especially when the facial expression must personify a well-known public figure or an actor. In order to extract a blending ratio from facial images automatically, the Facial Expression Explorer uses Networked Genetic Algorithm(NGA) which is a fast method for the convergence by GA. The blending ratio is often used to create facial expressions through shape blending methods by animators. With the Facial Expression Explorer a realistic facial expression can be modeled more efficiently.

Epoxy resin has less reaction shrinkage, has better water proofing and thermal resistance than other repairing materials, to it has been applied broadly to repair and finish buildings and infrastructures. Although the ambient temperature constructed is varied with the seasons and epoxy resin has to mix with appropriate hardener due to the non self-hardening, as the real construction of it, the ambient temperature is ignored and the blending ration of epoxy resin and hardener is fixed. Also, because of the hardening time is aimed to temperature condition and the tolerance of blending ratio, we investigated the variation of viscosity according to ambient temperatures and hardener ratios. As a results of study, we can select the economical blending ratio of the epoxy resin and hardener according to site situation.

The purpose of this study is to establish an effective way to utilize the application of EPDM-Polymer blends. First of all, the physical properties for EPDM/NR blends and compounding agents were studied. The results are shown as follows: 1. In blending, tensile strength and tear strength decreased with increase in EPDM contents. It was not effective more than the ratio of EPDM/NR is 50/50. 2. Elongation is influenced by blending, especially the ratio of EPDM/NR is 50/50. 3. It was found that both the resistance for ozone and aging were much improved after blending.

We have studied the blending effects of Diene NF 35R and Turfdene 1000R at various blending ratios 100/0, 70/30, 50/50, 30/70, 0/100, and of carbon black NAF and ISAF at various compounding ratios of 55 PHR, 65PHR, 75PHR for tyre tread rubber. As the results, it was found that; 1. For tyre tread rubber, as the blending ratio, Diene NF 35R/Turfdene 1000R, indicated 30/70, the physical properties we examined were most excellent. 2. Excellent result was obtained in case of carbon black compounding ratio of 63PHR. The compounding of ISAF made better result than that of HAF for tensile strength, tearing strength, and abrasion quantity. 3. Heat buildup obtained from compounding carbon black HAF indicated low temperature than that from compounding carbon black ISAF. As the compounding amount of carbon black increased, the heat buildup improved, and as the blending amount of Diene NF 35R decreased, the heat buildup dropped. 4. Carbon black was more efficient to Turfdene 1000R than to Diene NF 35R. 5. In this pysical properties, mooney viscosity, and mooney scorch time, as the compounding amount of carbon black increased, the values of mooney viscosity increased, but that of mooney scorch time dropped.

In this paper, we propose a high-quality stitching method of 3D multiple dental CT images. First, a weighted function is generated using the difference of two distance functions that calculate a distance from the nearest edge of an overlapped region to each position. And a blending ratio propagation function for two gradient vectors is parameterized by the difference and magnitude of gradient vectors that is also applied by the weighted function. When the blending ratio is propagated, an improved region growing scheme is proposed to decide the next position and calculate the blending intensity. The proposed method produces a high-quality stitching image. Our method removes the seam artifact caused by the mean intensity difference between images and vignetting effect. And it removes double edges caused by local misalignment. Experimental results showed that the proposed method produced high-quality stitching images for ten patients. Our stitching method could be usefully applied into the stitching of 3D or 2D multiple images.
