Automated weather stations were installed at 9 locations with, three different elevations, (i.e., 50m, 100m, and 300m a.s.l.) with different slope and aspect in a small watershed ($50km^2$ area). Air temperature at 1500 LST and solar radiation accumulated for 1100-1500 LST were collected from January to December 2012. Topography of the study area was defined by a $30{\times}30$ m digital elevation model (DEM) grid. Accumulated solar irradiance was calculated for each location with the spatially averaged slope and aspect of surrounding circles with 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 grid cell radii, respectively. The 1500 LST air temperature from clear sky conditions with zero cloud amount was regressed to the 1100-1500 LST solar irradiance at 9 locations. We found the highest coefficient of determination ($r^2$ = 0.544) at 25 grid cell radius and the temperature variation in this study was explained by Y = 0.8309X + 0.0438, where Y is 1500 LST temperature (in $^{\circ}C$) and X is 1100-1500 LST accumulated solar irradiance (in $MJ/m^2$).

In this letter, we report on the investigation of Ni/Si/Ni Ohmic contacts to n-type 4H-SiC. Ohmic contacts have been formed by a vacuum annealing and $N_2$ gas ambient annealing method at $950^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The specific contact resistivity ( $\rho_{c}$ ), sheet resistance($R_s$), contact resistance($R_c$), transfer length($L_T$) were calculated from resistance($R_T$) versus contact spacing(d) measurements obtained from 10 TLM(transmission line method) structures. The resulting average values of vacuum annealing sample were $\rho_{c}=3.8{\times}10^{-5}\Omega cm^{3}$, $R_{c}=4.9{\Omega}$, $R_{T}=9.8{\Omega}$ and $L_{T}=15.5{\mu}m$, resulting average values of another sample were $\rho_{c}=2.29{\times}10^{-4}\Omega cm^{3}$, $R_{c}=12.9{\Omega}$ and $R_{T}=25.8{\Omega}$. The physical properties of contacts were examined using X-Ray Diffraction and Auger analysis, there was a uniform intermixing of the Si and Ni, migration of Ni into the SiC.

We completed the light curves of the contact binary CK Boo for 13 nights from June to July in 2004 using the 1-m reflector and BVR filters at Mt. Lemmon Optical Astronomy Observatory, and determined four new times of minimum light (three timings for primary eclipse, one for secondary). With contact mode of the 1998-version Wilson-Devinney binary model, we analyzed our BVR light curves and Rucinski & Lu (1999)'s radial-velocity ones. As a result, we found CK boo to be A-type over-contact binary ($f=84\%$) with the low mass ratio (q=0.11) and orbital inclination ($i=65^{\circ}$). Absolute dimensions of the system are determined from our new solution; $M_1=1.42Me{\odot},\;M_2=0.15M{\odot},\;R_1=1.47R{\odot},\;R_2=0.59M{\odot}$ and the distance to it is derived as about 129pc. Our distance is well consistent with that ($157{\pm}33pc$) from the Hipparcos trigonometric parallax within the limit of the error yielded by the latter.

In this work, a new land-specific resistance measuring device (GM) and a measuring probe (Grounding Rod) are connected to the WENNER quadrant as power-line communication (PLC). In groups of two (P1,P2) probes, five to ten probes are installed in series on the ground at intervals of 1m, 2m, 4m, 8m, and 16m, respectively. If the PLC signal from the GMD is detected by the receiver of the Probe 1 (P1) for measurement, the minute voltage and current for measurement flow from the PSD (power supply) attached to the probe to the ground, and then, through the soil between P1 and P2, enters the Probe 1 (P2). The resistance value is then measured by the principle of voltage drop due to ground resistance. Measure the earth resistance every T seconds up to 1 trillion and store the measured data on the Arduino Server mounted on the main equipment. Stored measurement data can be derived from formulas by Ohm's Law and from inherent resistance (here,). Data obtained in real time will be linked to CDGES programs installed on Main PC, enabling data analysis and real-time monitoring of the ground environment on land. In addition, a three-dimensional display is possible with 3D graph support by identifying seasonal characteristics such as temperature and humidity of land (soils). The limitations of the study will require specific application measures of Test Bed for commercial access to a model that has been developed and operated experimentally.

In this present paper, a comprehensive drain current model incorporating the effects of channel length modulation has been presented for multi-layered gate material engineered trapezoidal recessed channel (MLGME-TRC) MOSFET and the expression for linearity performance metrics, i.e. higher order transconductance coefficients: $g_{m1}$, $g_{m2}$, $g_{m3}$, and figure-of-merit (FOM) metrics; $V_{IP2}$, $V_{IP3}$, IIP3 and 1-dB compression point, has been obtained. It is shown that, the incorporation of multi-layered architecture on gate material engineered trapezoidal recessed channel (GME-TRC) MOSFET leads to improved linearity performance in comparison to its conventional counterparts trapezoidal recessed channel (TRC) and rectangular recessed channel (RRC) MOSFETs, proving its efficiency for low-noise applications and future ULSI production. The impact of various structural parameters such as variation of work function, substrate doping and source/drain junction depth ($X_j$) or negative junction depth (NJD) have been examined for GME-TRC MOSFET and compared its effectiveness with MLGME-TRC MOSFET. The results obtained from proposed model are verified with simulated and experimental results. A good agreement between the results is obtained, thus validating the model.

Cold-formed steel (CFS) I sections are increasingly being used as load-bearing components in building constructions, and such I sections frequently incorporate web holes to facilitate service installation. The economical and structural advantages of these elements have prompted many researchers to investigate the behavior of such structures. Despite numerous studies on the buckling stability of castellated beams, there is a notable absence of experimental investigation into oval castellated beams with stiffeners. This study examines the local buckling of cold-formed steel castellated I-beams stiffened with oval constellations through experimental and numerical analysis. Four specimens are fabricated with and without stiffeners, including parallel, perpendicular, and intersecting types attached to the web portion of the beam, along with cross stiffeners for the oval-shaped openings at the beam ends. Additionally, a numerical model is developed to predict the behavior of castellated beams with oval openings up to failure, considering both material and geometric nonlinearities. Codal analysis is performed using the North American specification for cold-formed steel AISI S-100 and the Australian/New Zealand design code AS/NZS 4600. The anticipated outcomes from numerical analysis, experimental research, and codal analysis are compared and presented. It will be more helpful to the preliminary designers.

Tapping mode atomic force microscopy (TM-AFM) utilizes the dynamic response of a resonating probe tip as it approaches and retracts from a sample to measure the topography and material properties of a nanostructure. We present recent results based on nonlinear dynamical systems theory, computational continuation techniques and detailed experiments that yield new perspectives and insight into AFM. A dynamic model including van der Waals and Derjaguin-Muller-Toporov (DMT) contact forces demonstrates that periodic solutions can be represented with respect to the approach distance and excitation frequency. Turning points on the surface lead to hysteretic amplitude jumps as the tip nears/retracts from the sample. Experiments are performed using a tapping mode tip on a graphite sample to verify the predictions.

This paper presents the development of methodologies using Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) for cracked unstiffened and concentric stiffened panels subjected to constant amplitude tensile fatigue loading. XFEM formulations such as level set representation of crack, element stiffness matrix formulation and numerical integration are presented and implemented in MATLAB software. Stiffeners of the stiffened panels are modelled using truss elements such that nodes of the panel and nodes of the stiffener coincide. Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) is computed from the solutions of XFEM using domain form of interaction integral. Paris's crack growth law is used to compute the number of fatigue cycles up to failure. Numerical investigations are carried out to model the crack growth, estimate the remaining life and generate damage tolerant curves. From the studies, it is observed that (i) there is a considerable increase in fatigue life of stiffened panels compared to unstiffened panels and (ii) as the external applied stress is decreasing number of fatigue life cycles taken by the component is increasing.

We observed the transiting exoplanet, TrES-2b, with 1.5m telescope at Maidanak Observatory in Uzbekistan. We observed TrES-2 system for six nights, which contained two orbital periods of the planet. Therefore, we obtained the entire light curve of TrES-2b, which covered not only the whole primary transit containing both ingress and egress part, but also non-transit region. We used both R and Y band filters. Especially, Y filter is used first for transit observation and covers relatively longer wavelength ($1.02{\mu}m$ of center wavelength), to provide the light curve less affected by limb darkening. By fitting best model light curve for the obtained one, we determined these observables, transit depth, transit length, and planet's orbital period, which led to the determination of five physical parameters, stellar radius R*, stellar mass M*, inclination i, semi-major axis a, and planetary radius Rp. We will discuss of these results.

This study was conducted to testing the criterion - related validity of a mental health assessment tool which developed based on a korean culture. Criteria scale for this tool were MMPI and CMI(M - R). The study subject were 100 male and female aged 20 or more with quota sampling. The data was collected from August 16. to August 26. 1989. The data obtained from 85 subjects were analysed using S.P.S.S.(Stastistical Package for the Social Science). As a result, there are no significant correlation between Mental Health Assessment Tool and MMPI and CMI except Mf(Masculinity-Feminity) Subscale of MMPI. This result means the MMPI and CMI was not related to tool which developed based on medical model from etic perspectives, although the tool which had been developed in America Modified to Korean situation. So I dare to say that only the absence of mental illness does not means mental health and the diagnosis of mental illness is not the only criteria of a mental health.
