Herringbone groove journal bearing (HGJB) is developed to improve the static and dynamic performances of hydrodynamic journal bearing. In this study, static and dynamic compressible isothermal lubrication problems are analyzed by the finite element method together with the Newton-Raphson iterative procedure. This analysis is introduced for prediction of the static and dynamic characteristics of air lubricated HGJB for various bearing configurations. The bearing load characteristics and dynamic characteristics are dependent on geometric parameters such as asymmetric ratio, groove depth ratio, groove width ratio and groove angle.

An analysis based on the narrow groove theory is not suitable for the case of insufficient number of grooves or of non-rectangular shaped grooves. In this study, we present the solution of the compressible Reynolds equation for the air-lubricated hydrodynamic herringbonegrooved journal bearing with circular shaped grooves. From the results calculated numerically, optimal design values are obtained for the herringbone-grooved journal bearing.

In this study, airside performance of round fin-and-tube heat exchangers are compared with that of the herringbone wave fin-and-tube heat exchangers with an aim to investigate the effect of fin shape on thermal performance. Results show that j factors of the round wave fin are 1.2~22% larger than those of herringbone wave fin. The f factors of the round wave fin are -1.0~29% smaller than those of herringbone wave fin for 1 or 2 row configuration. For 3 row configuration, f factors of the round wave fin are 8.3~23% larger. The reason may be attributed to the reduced recirculation zone in the valley of the fin for round wave fin as compared with that of the herringbone wave fin. For round wave fin, the effect of fin pitch on j and f factor is not significant. In addition, j factors decrease as the number of tube row increases. On the other hand, f factors are independent of the number of tube row. A new correlation was developed based on the present data.

Ball bearings have been widely used for the spindle motor bearing in various kinds of information storage devices. Recently many researchers have been trying to replace ball bearings with fluid film bearings because of their superior NRRO(non-repeatable runout) characteristics. In this study, a numerical analysis has been conducted for the complicate bearing system composed of herringbone groove journal bearing and spiral groove thrust bearing for the spindle motor of the information storage device. At first, spindle motor bearing is modeled as journal bearing part and thrust bearing part separately, and then observed various influences of geometric parameters. Previous studies had considered only the translational motion of the journal bearing. However, this study takes the additional 2-degree of freedom rotation into consideration to attempt to describe the real motion of the spindle bearing. As a result, rotational stiffness coefficients and rotational damping coefficients are obtained. In addition, a spindle bearing system made up of four bearings is modeled and interpreted at once and coefficients of dynamic characteristics of each bearing are obtained. Finally, an eigen analysis of bearing system is made with these results. Through this analysis, it is possible to estimate an unstable condition of the system for given geometric parameters and to propose a method which is able to avoid the unstable condition by a proper adjustment of geometric parameters.

An oil lubricated Herringbone aroove jounal bearing(HGJB) with eight-circular-profile grooves on the non-rotating bearing surface is analyzed numerically and experimentally. The load carrying capacity, attitude angle, stiffness and damping coefficients are obtained numerically for the various bearing configurations. The onset speed of instability is also examined for the various eccentricity ratios. The configuration parameters of HGJB, such as groove depth ratio, groove width ratio, and groove angle, are dependent on each other because the grooves are generated by using eight small balls rolling over the inner surface of the sleeve with press fit. Therefore, it is not allowed to suggest a set of optimal design parameters such as the one for the rectangular profile HGJB. The overall results from numerical and experimental analysis prove that the circular profile HGJB has an excellent stability characteristics and the higher load carrying capacity than the plain journal bearing.

This study was conducted for obtaining the optimized data to build the mixer or micro fluid device as measuring the three dimensions flow field in micro mixer. To acquire the rapid diffusion on the region of low Reynolds (Re < 100), the staggered herringbone mixer using chaotic advection was selected in this case. At first, by conducting the numerical analytical virtual experiment using CFD-ACE+, three dimensions flow field in the micro mixer was estimated As this flow field was proven using defocusing particle tracing method, the behavior of micro flow with three dimensional aspects could be analyzed. Numerical analysis and flow pattern in the micro mixer by experimental verification made to be able to analyze the chaotic advection. These can be important sources for building more optimized form. Verifying the information of three dimensional flow structure, these information can be used as the data for developing and improving the $\mu$ -TAS.

Properties of carbon nano fiber (CNF) as field emitters were described. Carbon nano fiber (CNF) of herringbone was prepared by thermal chemical vapor deposition(CVD). Field emitters mixed with organic binders, conductive materials and were prepared by screen-printing process. In order to increase field emissions, the surface treatment of rubbing & peel-off was applied to the printed CNF emitters on cathode electrode. The measurements of field emission properties were carried out by using a diode structure inline vacuum chamber. CNF of herringbone type showed good emission properties that a turn on field was as low as 2.1 $V/{\mu}m$ and current density was as large as 0.15 $mA/cm^2$ of 4.2 $V/{\mu}m$ with electric field. Through the results. we propose that CNFs are suitable for application of electron emitters in Field Emission Devices.

The trigonal shape memory alloys (SMAs) have a great potential to be utilized as the applications with special purposes, such as actuators with high operation frequency. Most studies on the trigonal microstructures typically focus on the well-known classic herringbone pattern, but many other patterns are also possible, such as non-classic herringbone, toothbrush and checkerboard patterns. In the current work, a systematic procedure is developed to find all possible laminate twin microstructures by using geometrically linear compatibility theory. The procedure is verified by SEM images with the information of crystallographic axes of unitcells obtained by EBSD, showing good agreement. Many interesting trigonal R-phase patterns are found in the specimen. Then, their incompatibility are analyzed with nonlinear compatibility theory. The relationship between such incompatibility and the likelihood of occurrence of the microstructures is revealed. The current procedure is rapid, computationally efficient and sufficiently general to allow further extension to other crystal systems and materials.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the bloodstream of cancer patients provide an accessible source for detection, characterization, and monitoring of nonhematological cancers. The effectiveness of the CTC-Chip for the isolation of ovarian cancer cells was demonstrated by adapting the herringbone-chip (HB-Chip). The motions of the particles on the HB chip were simulated by a unique combination of buoyant, gravitational forces, and helical flows with a computational modeling. The motions of cells are demonstrated by applying polystylene bead and ovarian cancer cells into the microfabricated HB-Chip. The experimental results from beads and cells are well accordance with the simulated ones, as previously reported by Toner group. Thus, I expect that these modeling and experimental skills will play key roles in the clinical applications on CTC isolation as well as the basic research on characterization of CTCs under flow.
