In the neutron capture experiment and calculation, the neutron absorption and scattering are very important. Especially these effects are conspicuous in the resonance energy region and below the thermal energy region. In the present study, we obtained energy dependent neutron absorption ratios of natural rhodium in energy region from 0.003 to 100 eV by MCNP-4B Code. The coefficients for neutron absorption was calculated for several types of thickness. In the lower energy region, neutron absorption is larger than higher region, because of large capture cross section (1/v). Furthermore it seems very different neutron absorption in the large resonance energy region. These results are very useful to decide the thickness of sample and shielding materials.

Gd-157 material has very large neutron capture cross section in the thermal region. So it is very useful to shield material for thermal neutrons. Futhermore, in the neutron capture experiment and calculation, the neutron absorption and scattering are very important. Especially these effects are conspicuous in the resonance energy region and below the thermal energy region. In the case of very narrow resonance, the effect of scattering is to be more considerable factor. In the present study, we obtained energy dependent neutron absorption ratios of natural indium in energy region from 0.003 to 100 keV by MCNP-4B Code. The coefficients for neutron absorption was calculated for circular type and 1 mm thickness. In the lower energy region, neutron absorption is larger than higher region, because of large capture cross section (1/v). Furthermore it seems very different neutron absorption in the large resonance energy region. These results are very useful to decide the thickness of sample and shielding materials.

This study examined the temperature-dependent regression model of energy consumption based on various measuring period. The methodology employed was to construct temperature-dependent linear regression model of daily energy consumption from one day to three months data-sets and to compare the annual heating energy consumption predicted by these models with actual annual heating energy consumption. Heating energy consumption from a building in Daejon was examined experimentally. From the results, predicted value based on one day experimental data can have error over 100%. But predicted value based on one week experimental data showed error over 30%. And predicted value based on over three months experimental data provides accurate prediction within 6% but it will be required very expensive.

Most high energy cosmic rays (CRs) are thought to be produced by diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) in supernova remnants (SNRs) within the Galaxy. Plasma and MHD simulations have shown that the self-excitation of MHD waves and amplification of magnetic fields via plasma instabilities are an integral part of DSA for strong collisionless shocks. In this study we explore how plasma processes such as plasma instabilities and wave-particle interactions can affect the energy spectra of CR protons and electrons, using time-dependent DSA simulations of SNR shocks. We demonstrate that the time-dependent evolution of the shock dynamics, the self-amplified magnetic fields and $Alfv{\acute{e}nic$ drift govern the highest energy end of the CR energy spectra. As a result, the spectral cutoffs in nonthermal X-ray and ${\gamma}$-ray radiation spectra are regulated by the evolution of the highest energy particles, which are injected at the early phase of SNRs. We also find that the maximum energy of CR protons can be boosted significantly only if the scale height of the magnetic field precursor is long enough to contain the diffusion lengths of the particles of interests. Thus, detailed understandings of nonlinear wave-particle interactions and time-dependent DSA simulations are crucial for understanding the nonthermal radiation from CR acceleration sources.

Intramolecular energy migration in a cyclic porphyrin array is spontaneous transfer of energy from one excited site to another. Since the efficiency of energy migration is inversely proportional to distance, the energy migration is occurred on their adjacent sites more often than distant ones. Therefore, the energy migration in the cyclic porphyrin array is largely dependent on their conformational characters. However, evaluation of conformational information by means of experimental tools is ambiguous since their limited resolution. In this work, we calculate the internal angle and distance distributions of cyclic porphyrin arrays using molecular dynamics simulations to obtain conformational information. To evaluate the angle and distance distributions respect to molecular size, we constructed molecules with n porphyrin dimers (n=1,3,7) in implicit solvent environment. Performing molecular dynamics simulations, we modulated alkyl groups to investigate additional conformational effects of the system.

We developed a simple method to prepare the displacement damage cross section of SiC using NJOY and SRIM/TRIM. The number of displacements per atom (DPA) dependent on primary knock-on atom (PKA) energy was computed using SRIM/TRIM and it is directly used by NJOY/HEATR to compute the neutron energy dependent DPA cross sections which are required to estimate the accumulated DPA of nuclear material. SiC DPA cross section is published as a table in DeCART 47 energy group structure. Proposed methodology can be easily extended to other materials.

A numerical study is performed to investigate the impacts of thermal loading on the vibration and buckling of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) conical shells. Thermo-mechanical properties of constituents are considered to be temperature-dependent. Considering the shear deformation theory, the energy functional is derived, and applying the variational differential quadrature (VDQ) method, the mass and stiffness matrices are obtained. The shear correction factors are accurately calculated by matching the shear strain energy obtained from an exact three-dimensional distribution of the transverse shear stresses and shear strain energy related to the first-order shear deformation theory. Numerical results reveal that considering temperature-dependent material properties plays an important role in predicting the thermally induced vibration of FG-CNTRC conical shells, and neglecting this effect leads to considerable overestimation of the stiffness of the structure.

We propose a new method of generating client models for HMM based text-dependent speaker verification system with only a small amount of training data. To make a client model, statistical methods such as segmental K-means algorithm are widely used, but they do not guarantee the quality or reliability of a model when only limited data are avaliable. In this paper, we propose a blind speech segmentation based on level building DTW algorithm as an alternative method to make a client model with limited data. In addition, considering the fact that voiced sounds have much more speaker-specific information than unvoiced sounds and energy of the former is higher than that of the latter, we also propose a new score evaluation method using the observation probability raised to the power of weighting factor estimated from the normalized log energy. Our experiment shows that the proposed methods are superior to conventional HMM based speaker verification system.

Methylammonium lead halide ($MAPbI_3$) perovskites are considered as promising materials owing to their excellent optical and electrical properties. However, perovskite materials suffer from degradation in air, which limits their practical applications. Here, we demonstrate successful passivation of the $MAPbI_3$ photodetectors through monochloro-para-xylylene (Parylene-C) deposition. The time-dependent photocurrent characteristics were systematically investigated, and we achieved significantly improved device performance and stability with Parylene-C passivation. Based on the excitation-power-dependent photoluminescence (PL) data, we confirmed that Parylene-C can reduce the carrier losses in $MAPbI_3$, leading to the enhancement of photocurrent and PL in $MAPbI_3$ photodetectors.
