  • This paper presents computer simulations of the stacking and transfer system for the fast freeform fabrication system. The stacking and transfer system is essential for the fast freeform fabrication system and its stable motion is very important fer the consistent stacking of the cut slices. The stacking and transfer system cane be modeled as a pneumatic system. The system consists of air compressor, the control valve, and the cylinder. The governing parameters have been changed and the simulation results are shown to predict the time response of the system. The results shows some parameters should be correctly tuned to obtain stable system response.

  • The sole use of the glucanhydrolase (exhibiting both dextranase and amylase activities) from Lipomyces starkeyi hydrolyzed the soluble polysaccharides in sugar syrup more efficiently than a mixed treatment using both commercial dextranase and amylase. The glucanhydrolase treatment of stale sugar cane juice resulted in a yield of square, light-colored sugar crystals.

  • Electronic Travel Aids (ETA) developed for the blind such as sonicguide, mowat sensor and bionic C-5 laser cane have many problems like technical deficiency and high cost. Moreover, these systems have need for more training to perceive obstacle around. Therefore, In this study, we studied the blind's obstacle perception characteristics by human auditory sense, and development of ultrasonic ETA which have more simple usage, low cost and immediate usableness than present ETAs.

  • In this paper, we implemented the electornic moving aid system for safe walking of the blind. An obstacle detecting of each sector used ultrasound and a distance measurement used time of flight. The alarm is designed to have a sound and a tactile function that can be selected on an user's convenience. This system can detect and obstacle of upward, forward, downward and optimally warn to the blind with vibration, beep sound by appling warning algorithm on object detection. Experimental testing and performance evaluation have been successfully carried out with a prototype cane, and the experiment shows the capability of the function to detect unknown objects within an assigned distance, under knees, over head height, and crushed puddles.

  • Plant tissue homogenization using a mortar or mechanical equipment has been the preferred method for obtaining high yields of total RNA; this method, however, is both time-consuming and expensive. Additionally, homogenization may generate excessive endogenous RNases, polyphenolics, and other substances that reduce the quality and quantity of RNA. In this study, we describe the microwave irradiation-assisted RNA extraction (MIRE) technique which, without tissue disruption and homogenization, allows for the cost-effective and rapid generation of intact RNA from apple cane shavings and the reliable detection of apple virus by RT-PCR.

  • This study contains the CFD analysis to predict the flow in engine room and utilize the results as a reference for arranging smoke detectors. FLUENT, a commercial CFD code is adopted because of its good application experience in DSME(Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co.. Ltd.). The target is the engine room of VLCC. which was delivered in 2002. The model for analysis includes main structure elements, ventilation ducts, main engine and other big size equipment. From the analysis results, the internal flow pattern can be observed and some guidelines for the position of smoke detectors cane be presented.

  • The purpose of this study is to identify characteristic of Swedish modern furniture design through design works made by 8 prominent Swedish furniture designers during the 20th century. The study was completed through literature reviews and searching for web-sites of Swedish distinguished furniture companies. 8 furniture designers, eg. Erik Gunnar Asprund, Carl Malmsten, Josef Frank, John Kandell, Mats Theselius, Bruno Mathsson, $\AA$ke Axelsson and Yngve Extr$\ddot{o}$m were selected to identify the characteristics of Swedish modern furniture design. The results are as follows: 1) they pursuit simple and functional design beyond time. 2) they pursuit functionalism modified with Swedish traditional craftsmanship. 3) natural wood is considered as the most beloved material for the furniture together with other natural materials such as hemp, leather and cane. 5) easy maintenance and durability of the furniture are considered as important factors to make it last long. 6) ecological concept is fulfilled to meet environmental legislation.

  • This study presents a microfluidic method for the production of monodisperse poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) microspheres using continuous droplet formation and in situ photopolymerization in microfluidic devices. We investigated the flow patterns for the stable formation of droplets using capillary number and the flow rate of the hexade-cane phase. Under the stable region, the resulting microspheres showed narrow size distribution having a coefficient of variation (CV) of below 1.8%. The size of microspheres ($45{\sim}95{\mu}m$) could be easily controlled by changing the interfacial tension between the two immiscible phases and the flow rates of the dispersed or continuous phase.
