Copper pillar tin bump (CPTB) was developed for high density chip interconnect technology. Copper pillar tin bumps that have $100{\mu}m$ pitch were introduced with fabrication process using a KM -1250 dry film photoresist (DFR), copper electroplating method and Sn electro-less plating method. Mechanical shear strength measurements were introduced to characterize the bonding process as a function of thermo-compression. Shear strength has maximum value with $330^{\circ}C$ and 500 N thenno-compression process. Through the simulation work, it was proved that when the copper pillar tin bump decreased in its size, it was largely affected by the copper oxidation.

In this work, a smart skin of multi-layer structure is designed and manufactured. Through the compression test, the characteristic of smart skin behavior was examined. We have predicted stress of each layer and the first failed layer of the smart skin structure by using MSC/NASTRAN. The finite element model was verified by comparing measured data from the compression test and result from the geometrically linear/non-linear analysis. The finite element model was used for obtaining design data from the parametric study. It was confirmed that shear moduli of honeycomb core affect the buckling load of smart skin where shear deformation was considerable.

High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is the newest video coding standard for improvement in video data compression. This new standard provides a significant improvement in picture quality, especially for high-resolution videos. A quadtree-based structure is created for the encoding and decoding processes and the rate-distortion (RD) cost is calculated for all possible dimensions of coding units in the quadtree. To get the best combination of the block an optimization process is performed in the encoder, called rate distortion optimization (RDO). In this work we are proposing a novel approach to enhance the overall RDO process of HEVC encoder. The proposed algorithm is performed in two steps. In the first step, like HEVC, it performs general rate distortion optimization. The second step is an extra checking where a SSIM based cost is evaluated. Moreover, a fast SSIM (FSSIM) calculation technique is also proposed in this paper.

The influence of spacers on the behaviour and ultimate capacity of intermediate length CFS open section columns under axial compression is investigated in this paper. The focus of the research lies in the cross- section predominantly, failed by distortional buckling. This paper made an attempt to either delay or eliminate the distortional buckling mode by the introduction of transverse elements referred herein as spacers. The cross-sections investigated have been selected by performing the elastic buckling analysis using CUFSM software. The test program considered three different columns having slenderness ratios of 35, 50 & 60. The test program consisted of 14 pure axial compression tests under hinged-hinged end condition. Models have been analysed using finite element simulations and the obtained results are compared with the experimental tests. The finite element package ABAQUS has been used to carry out non-linear analyses of the columns. The finite element model incorporates material, geometric non-linearities and initial geometric imperfection of the specimens. The work involves a wide parametric study in the column with spacers of varying depth and number of spacers. The results obtained from the study shows that the depth and number of spacers have significant influence on the behaviour and strength of the columns. Based on the nonlinear regression analysis the design equation is proposed for the selected section.

This paper presents the optimization process of evaporator for a vapor compression cooling system for high heat flux CPU. The CPU thermal capacity was given by 300W. Evaporating temperature and mass flow rate were $18^{\circ}C$ and 0.00182kg/s respectively. R134a was used as a working fluid. Channel width(CW) and height(CH) were selected as design factors. And thermal resistance, surface temperature of CPU, degree of superheat, and pressure drop were taken as objective responses. Fractional factorial DOE was used in screening phase and RSM(Response Surface Method) was used in optimization phase. As a result, CW of 2.5mm, CH of 2.5mm, and CL of 484mm were taken as an optimum geometry. Surface temperature of CPU and thermal resistance were $33^{\circ}C\;and\;0.0502^{\circ}C/W$ respectively. Thermal resistance of evaporator designed in this study was significantly lower than that of other cooling systems such as water cooling system and thermosyphon system. It was found that the evaporator considered in this work can be a excellent candidate for a high heat flux CPU cooling system.

When a safety valve equipped in a nuclear power plant opens in an instant by an accident, a moving shock wave propagates downstream the valve, inducing a complicated unsteady flow field. The moving shock wave may exert severe load to the structure. So, to reduce the load acting on the wall of POSRV, a gradual opening of POSRV is adopted in general. In theses connections, a numerical work is performed to investigate the effect of valve opening time on the unsteady flow fields downstream of the valve. Compressible, two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are used with the finite volume method. The obtained results show that sharp pressure rise through moving shock tor the case of instant opening is attenuated by employing the gradual opening of valve. It is turned that the flows for the two cases of gradual valve opening time show the similar to that of highly under-expanded one in jet structure having expansion and compression waves and Mach stem. Also, comparing with the results for the two cases of opening time, the shorter the valve opening is, the pressure gradient at the downstream of the valve becomes softly.

This research investigated spray characteristics using LPG fuel under compression ignition to contribute to develop a high efficiency LPG fuel is an environmentally-friendly fuel since it emits lower $CO_2$ compare to other conventional fuels. In order to observe spray process, a high speed digital camera and high pressure common-rail injector were applied. Using the spray behaviors of LPG and diesel fuel from the experiment, this research analyzed the mixing process of air-fuel mixture numerically with FLUENT 6.3 when LPG and diesel fuel injected directly into the cylinder while compression stroke occurs. Spray characteristics of LPG fuel was investigated by using numerical method, in which KH-RT model was adapted for phase change. As a result of numerical analysis, this work found out that LPG spray has a wider mixing formation and uniform diffusion of air-fuel mixture compare to diesel.

This work was investigated on pilot injection strategy of blended fuels(Diesel-DME) for combustion and emissions in a single cylinder direct injection compression ignition engine. Diesel and DME were blended by the method of weight ratio. Weight ratios for diesel and DME were 95:05 and 90:10 respectively. dSOI between main and pilot injection timing was varied. A total amount of injected fuels(single injection) was adjusted to obtain the fixed BMEP as 4.2 bar in order to compare with the fuel conditions. Also, the amount of pilot injection fuel was varied by 5%, 10% and 20% of total injection fuel. The engine was equipped with common rail and injection pressure is 700 bar at 1200 rpm. As a result, when mixing ratio increase, indicated thermal efficiency was increased in comparison with DD 100 and CO, THC and smoke were lower than DD 100. The influence of reducing NOx by pilot injection was more effective than DD 100. When pilot injection quantity increase, abrupt increase of NOx was occured at pilot injection quantity of 20%.

Compression tests were conducted at the various temperatures and strain rates to investigate void formation and microstructures behavior of a 1.9wt%C ultrahigh carbon steel used in forged workrolls. The microstructure, grain size and volume fraction of cementite were determined using specimens deformed in the temperature range from 800 to $1150^{\circ}C$ and strain rates from 0.01 to 10/s. It was found from the microstructural analysis that the grain size is larger at higher temperatures and lower strain rate deformation conditions. In addition, a higher volume fraction of cementite was measured at lower temperatures. The brittle blocky cementite was fractured at $800^{\circ}C$ and $900^{\circ}C$ regardless of strain rate. As a result, numerous new micro voids were formed in the fragmented blocky cementite. It was also found that local melting can occur at temperatures of more than $1130^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the forging temperature should be controlled between $900^{\circ}C$ and $1120^{\circ}C$. The temperature rise, which depends on the anvil stroke and velocity, was estimated through cogging simulation to find the appropriate forging temperature and to prevent local melting due to plastic work.

The purpose of this study was to investigate reduction of exhaust gas temperature in LPG conversion engine from diesel. A conventional diesel engine was modified to a LPG(Liquified Petroleum Gas) engine that diesel fuel injection pump was replaced by the LPG fuel system. The research was peformed with measurement of exhaust gas temperature by varying spark ignition timing, air-fuel ratio, compression ratio, EGR ratio and different compositions of butane and propane. The major conclusion of this work were followed. (i) Exhaust gas temperature was decreased and power was increased with the advanced spark ignition timing. (ii) Exhaust gas temperature was decreased with lean and rich air-fuel ratio. (iii)Exhaust gas temperature was decreased and power was increased with the higher compression ratio. (iv) Engine power and exhaust temperature were not influenced by varied butane/propane fuel compositions. (v) Finally, one of the important parameters in reduction of exhaust gas temperature is spark ignition timing among the parameters in this study.
