  • This study presented numerical simulations of smooth-bed flows in the rectangular open-channel using the source code by OpenFOAM. For the analysis of the turbulent flow, Large Eddy Simulations were carried out and the dynamic sub-grid scale model proposed by Germano et al. (1991) is used to model the residual stress term. In order to analyze the coherent structure, the uw quadrant method proposed by Lu and Willmarth (1973) is used and the contribution rate and the fraction time of the instantaneous Reynolds stress are obtained in the Reynolds stress. The results by the present study are analyzed and compared with data from previous laboratory studies and direct numerical simulations. It is found that the contribution rate of the ejection events is larger than that of sweep events over the buffer layer in the open-channel flow over the smooth bed, however, the frequency of the sweep event is higher than that of the ejection events.

  • This paper describes characteristics of the flow pattern of the flow past a rectangular cylinder experimentally investigated. The width-to-length ratio of the section varried from 2 to4. For the statistical treatment, autocorrelation coefficient, probability density function and power spectral density function are obtained by the digital processing technic through on-line system with a hot wire anemometer. As a results, it was found that strong periodic coherent eddies structure is sustained to about 20H downstream from the cylinder. And nearer the cylinder in the wake, the number of turbulent eddies of a large scale coherent structure are comparatively much more dominant than that of a small scale one. By the analysis of power spectrum, It was cleared that there exists a certain range of the width to length ratio between 2.5 and 3 of which the flow pattern changes abruptly with a sudden discontinuity in Strouhal number.

  • ISO/IEC/WD 24753 defines new modem specifications for a long-range RFID communications and application protocol for a sensor tag system. According to the standard, the frequency offset of the tag is 4%. In general wireless communications systems, it is known that a coherent receiver is superior to a non-coherent receiver. However, if the frequency offset is large, it is difficult to restore the original data accurately with a coherent receiver, and the performance of a coherent receiver is easily degraded. In this paper, a non-coherent receiver structure is adopted to solve the frequency offset problem of long-range RFID communications. We designed a frequency estimation block to find an optimal frequency from the received signal with 4% frequency offset and proposed a start frame delimiter (SFD) detection algorithm to determine the start position of the payload. The frequency estimation block finds the optimal frequency from the received signal using 9-correlators. And the SFD detection block searches the received signal to find the start position of the payload with dual correlator. We implemented a long-range RFID reader with the proposed methods and evaluated its performance in a wired/wireless test network. The implemented long-range RFID reader showed more superior performance than the commercial RFID reader in terms of recognition range.

  • POD (proper orthogonal decomposition) is applied to turbulent leading-edge separation bubble to extract coherent structures. A two-dimensional leading-edge separation bubble is simulated by discrete-vortex method, where a time-dependent source forcing is incorporated. Based on the wealth of numerical data, POD is applied in a range of the forcing amplitude ( $A_{o}$ = 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5) and forcing frequency (0 .leq. $f_{F}$H/ $U_{\infty}$.leq. 0.3). It is demonstrated that the structures of POD have noticeable changes with local forcings. In an effort to investigate the mechanism of decreasing reattachment length, dynamic behaviors of the expansion coefficients and contributions of the eigenfunctions of POD are scrutinized. As the forcing amplitude increases, the large-scale vortex structures are formed near the forcing amplitude increases, the large-scale vortex structures are formed near the separation point and the flow structures become more organized and more regular, accompanying with the reduction of reattachment length. By further inverstigation of POD global entropy, it is seen that the reattachment length is closely linked to the degree of organization of the flow structures.es.s.

  • New statistical method is proposed to coherently combine Baryon Acoustic Oscillation statistics (BAO) and peculiar velocity measurements exploiting decomposed density--density and velocity--velocity spectra in real space from the observed redshift distortions in redshift space, 1) to achieve stronger dark energy constraints, sigma(w)=0.06 and sigma(w_a)=0.20, which are enhanced from BAO or velocity measurements alone, and 2) to cross--check consistency of dark energy constraints from two different approaches; BAO as geometrical measurements and peculiar velocity as large scale structure formation observables.

  • In the present study, the flow around a circular cylinder at $Re=3.6{\time}10^6$ is numerically simulated using URANS approach. The objective of this study is to evaluate the turbulence models(Realizable k-${\varepsilon}$, RNG k-${\varepsilon}$) through the prediction of the unsteady flow characteristics around the cylinder. The time-averaged drag coefficients and vortex shedding phenomenon in the wake region are compared to available experimental data and other numerical results. The simulation with Realizable k-${\varepsilon}$ model is found to be more dissipative due to large eddy viscosity predicted in the wake region while the simulation with RNG k-${\varepsilon}$ model predicts a complex vortex shedding phenomenon with more coherent structures realistically.

  • A stack of gradient-index (GRIN) rod lenses cannot be used for coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microendoscopy for insertion to internal organs through a surgical keyhole with minimal invasiveness. That's because GRIN lens has large amount of inherent chromatic aberrations in spite of absolutely requiring a common focus for pump and Stokes beam with each frequency of ${\omega}_p$ and ${\omega}_S$. For this endoscopic purpose, we need to develop a long slender probe-type objective, namely probe-type microscope objective (PMO). In this paper, we introduce the structure, the working principle, and the design techniques of PMO which is composed of a probe-type lens module (PLM) and an adaptor lens module (ALM). PLM is first designed for a long slender type and ALM is successively designed by using several design parameters from PLM for eliminating optical discords between scanning unit and PLM. A combined module is optimized again to eliminate some coupling disparities between PLM and ALM for the best PMO. As a result, we can obtain a long slender PMO with perfectly diffraction-limited performance for pump beam of 817 nm and Stokes beam of 1064 nm.

  • Commercial semicontinuous cast ingots of aluminum alloys often exhibit large grains composed of parallel arrays of continuous lamellae. Each lamella consists of a central {111} coherent twin boundary and wavy solidification boundary. This microstructure is referred to as a twin columnar growth(TCG) structure. The factors influencing the formation of a TCG structure include a unidirectional thermal gradient and the critical range of the alloying element content. The higher the thermal gradient is, the shorter the twin plane spacings are. The composition profile for an untwinned dendrite shows maximums at the positions of the interdendritic channels and the minimum appears at the center of the dendrite. While for twinned dendrite, it has wavy apperance. This profile has two local minimums instead of one shown in the untwinned.

  • In this paper, firstly we made of the rapid thermal processor equipment with the specifically useful structure to measure wafer stress. Secondly we made of the laser interferometry to inspect the wafer surface curvature based on the large deformation theory. And then the wafer surface fringe image was obtained by experiment, and the full field stress distribution of wafer surface comes into view by signal processing with thining and pitch mapping. After wafer was ground by 1mm and polished from the back side to get easily deformation, and it was heated by three to four times thermal treatments at about 1000 degree temperature. Finally the severe deformation between wafer before and after the heat treatment was shown.
