The objective of the present work is to examine the cooling characteristics of water droplet on the unburned surface. The hot solid surface material used brass, carbon steel and copper at temperature ranging from 70 to $116^{\circ}$. the droplet size is from 2.4 mm to 3.0 mm. The CCD camera was used to record the evaporation histories of the droplets. and the evaporation time of the droplet on the hot solid surface could be determined by using frame-by-frame analysis of the video records. It is found that during the droplet evaporation process for copper the temperature remains nearly constant, whereas for carbon steel the temperature continuously decreases about $1^{\circ}$. During the droplet evaporation process on the hot solid surface, regardless of solid materials, nondimensional droplet volume decreases nondimensional evaporation time increases.

We have conducted surface photometry of a spiral galaxy NGC4419, by making use of photographic plates in U, B, V and R-bands taken by 105cm Schmidt Camera at Kiso Observatory. Two dimensional surface brightness distributions as well as luminosity profiles along the major axis are examined in detail to decipher the morphological properties of the galaxy. Analysis of the color distributions of NGC4419 shows that B-V and U-B colors remain constant throughout the galaxy with a weak trend of blue bulge in B-V color. The blue bulge might indicate an active star formation in the nucleus of NGC4419. For a quantitative analysis of the luminosity distribution of NGC4419, the observed luminosity profiles are decomposed into bulge and disk components, assuming the bulge component to follow de Vaucouleurs $\gamma^{1/4}-law$ while the disk component is assumed to be exponential. The fitting generally fails at the central part and at the shoulder near r = 15' where bulge and disk components overlap. The failure at the central part cannot be attributed wholly by the seeing disk since the core-radius of the central plateau is much larger than the width of point spread function. The failure at shoulder could be due to the luminosities from the spiral arms.

A 3D transient heat transfer model is developed by ABAQUS software to study the temperature distribution during friction stir welding process at different rotational speeds. Furthermore, AA 5083-O plates were joined by FSW technique. For this purpose, a universal milling machine was used to perform the welding process and a mechanical vice was used to fix the work pieces in the proper position. The joints were friction stir welded at a constant travel speed 50 mm/min and two rotational speed values; 400 rpm and 630 rpm using two types of tools; cylindrical threaded pin and tapered smooth one. At each welding condition the temperature was measured using infra-red thermal image camera to verify the simulated temperature distribution. The welded joints were visually inspected as well as by macro- and microstructure evolutions. In addition, the welded joints were mechanically tested for hardness and tensile strength. The maximum peak temperature obtained was at higher rotational speed using the threaded tool pin profile. The results showed that the rotational speed affects the peak temperature, defects formation and sizes, and the mechanical properties of friction stir welded joints. Moreover, the threaded tool gives superior mechanical properties than the tapered one at lower rotational speed.

Moving pixel displacement detection algorithm using correlation functions for making panorama image on the continuous images is presented in this paper. The input images get from a CMOS image sensor (CIS). The camera is maintained by constant brightness and uniform sensing area in test input pattern. For simple navigation and capture image has to 70% overlapped region. A correlation rate in two image data is evaluated by using reference image with first captures, and compare image with next captures. The displacement of the two images are expressed to second order function of x, y and solved with finding the coefficient in second order function. That results in the change in the peak correlation displacement from the reference to the compare image, is moving to pixel length. The navigating error is reduced by varying the path because the error is shown in the difference of the positioning vector between the true pixel position and the navigated pixel position. The algorithm performance is evaluated to be different from the error vector to vary the navigating path grid.

This paper researches a way of detecting fish robots moving in an aquarium. The fish robot was designed and developed for interactions with humans in aquariums. It was studied merely to detect a moving object in an aquarium because we need to find the positions of moving fish robots. The intention is to recognize the location of robotic fish using an image processing technique and a video camera. This method is used to obtain the velocity for each pixel in an image, and assumes a constant velocity in each video frame to obtain positions of fish robots by comparing sequential video frames. By using this positional data, we compute the distance between fish robots using a mathematical expression, and determine which fish robot is leading and which one is lagging. Then, the lead robot will wait for the lagging robot until it reaches the lead robot. The process runs continuously. This system is exhibited in the Busan Science Museum, satisfying a performance test of this algorithm.

The studies of the spray characteristics for a CRDI engine had been advancing by many researchers, because the performance and exhaust emission were significantly affected with the spray characteristics. But most experiments of the studies would be done at low ambient pressure conditions under 2MPa. In this study, injection rates were measured with Zeuch's method at various ambient pressures to 5MPa and a constant injection pressure of 130MPa. On the same conditions, non-evaporating spray images were taken with a high speed camera and analyzed carefully with Adobe Photoshop CS3. Macroscopic spray characteristics and breakup processes in the spray could be found from the examined and analyzed data. The initial injection rate, penetration, angle, velocity and breakup of the spray were practically affected with a variation of the ambient pressure, but the injection start time and injection period were scarcely affected. As the ambient pressure was higher, the breakup of a high density droplet region in the spray was happened slowly and the main position of breakup was shifted from a front of the spray to a upstream around a nozzle. The results and techniques of spray visualization and injection rate measurement in this study would be practically effective to study a high pressure diesel spray for a CRDI.

Power management is a very important issue in portable electronic applications. Portable electronic devices require very efficient power management like LDO to increase the battery life. As the voltage variation of battery power is large in the application of cell phone, camera, laptop, automotive, industry application and so on, battery power is not directly used and LDO is used to supply the power of internal circuit. Besides, LDO can supply DC voltage that is lower than bauer voltage and constant DC voltage that is not related to largely fluctuated battery power. In the study, the power-save mode current and IR-drop characteristics are analyzed from a LDO with on-chip fabricated in 0.18-um CMOS technology.

Sb2S3 thin films were fabricated by vacuum evaporation of compound Sb2S3 at a pressure of 10**-5 torr. and in argon ambient. Then, their electrical and photoconductive properties were investigated. The Sb2S3 glass-layer showed maximum photosensitivity at the deposition rate of 250\ulcornersec, and Sb2S3 porous layer had mininum dielectric constant of 1.5 at the deposition rate of 0.3 um/sec and argon partial pressure of 0.2torr. Sb2S3 multi-layers were prepared at the different thickness ratio (B/A) to find the proper structural property suited for camera pick-up tube. Here, A is the sum of the thickness of Sb2S3 porous layer and Sb2S3 fine grain layer, and B is the thickness of Sb2S3 fine grain layer. As a result, photosensitivity had a peak value at the thickness ratio (B/A) of 60%.

In this study, an experimental investigation on the effects of the pressure ratio on the wall-impingement spray characteristics of nitrogen gas using a compressed natural gas (CNG) injector was conducted. The transient development of the impingement spray was recorded by a high speed camera with Z-type Schlieren visualization method. The spray behavior under various pressure ratio conditions were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the pressure ratio has positive effect on the development of spray wall-impingement. The effects of the above factor were evaluated in a constant volume chamber at atmospheric conditions. The data from test showed that, with the increase of the pressure ratio, the spray tip penetration (STP) quickly increases before the impingement and gradually increases after the impingement. Additionally, the spray velocity first increases and then sharply decreases on regardless of the injection pressure level. As the spray spreading angle increases, spray area and volume increases rapidly with the increase in STP at the beginning of injection, and finally entered a stable range, has a great correlation with the increase of pressure ratios.
