Reaction Wheel Assembly (RWA) is one of the major disturbance sources that have influence upon the Line of Sight (LOS) of payload. A micro-vibration induced by RWA is propagated through the satellite structure and decrease the LOS stability performance of payload. This effect shall be analyzed through the jitter analysis. If a requirement or specification of payload jitter level is found to be not satisfied according to the jitter analysis campaign, some modification or redesign should be done on the satellite structure or a couple of isolator should be attached on the RWA interface in order to reduce the transmitted vibration level of RWA. The purpose of ???RWA isolator test? is to roughly evaluate the performance of vibration suppression level with a passive RWA isolator made of rubber. For this test, actual RWA is used as a vibration source and a couple of cube-shaped rubber mount designed for satellite is used as a passive isolator. There may be several considerations in order to accommodate RWA isolator to spacecraft such as not only vibration reduction performance but also thermal conduction problem, mechanical size, RWA alignment problem, etc. But in this report the feasibility of RWA isolator is analyzed only in a vibration suppression point of view. As a result, high frequency vibration of RWA above 50Hz is perfectly attenuated with isolators, however, first harmonic components below 50Hz became larger due to the additional low frequency resonance modes of roll, pitch, yaw rigid body motion of RWA+bracket.

SPME deuce was applied to determine the THM in an aqueous solution. The 6 kinds of THM was quantitatively detenuned by using GC-ECD which has the sample eutracted on the SPME fiber from an aqueous solution for 10 min. The THM components were well separated from $CHCl_3$ to the last $CHBr_3$ UHh 13 mons at the condition. 6 kinds of the volatile halogenated organic compounds: $CHCl_3$, $CHBrCl_2$, $CHBrtCl_2$, $CHCl_3$, $C_2Cl$. and $CHBr_3$, showed well defirled calibration graph with good llnearlty from a few ppb level up to several tens of pub concentration. $CHBr_2Cl$ and $C_2C1_4$ were detected from a few samples among the 10 of river samples. CHCl3, however, was detected In 4 sea water samples with the highest of 10 ppd among the pouuted 6 positions. Trace level of $CHBr_2Cl$ and few pub level of $CHBr_3$ were also detected at the other two sample stations. Most of the 13 rain water samples collected from 6 sampling stations were contained ppd level of $CHCl_3$, and also $CHBr_2Cl$, and C_2Cl_4$ were only detected at trace level at a few rain samples among them. We could recognize the fact that our Ut and water enoronment has already been contaminated by certain volatile halogenated organic compounds through this study.

We demonstrate the sol-gel coating technique of colloidal clusters for producing hollow micro-particles with complex morphologies. Cross-linked amidine polystyrene (PS) microspheres were synthesized by emulsifier-free emulsion copolymerization of styrene and divinylbenzene. The amidine PS particles were self-organized inside toluene-in-water emulsion droplets to produce large quantities of colloidally stable clusters. These clusters were coated with thin silica shell by sol-gel reaction of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and ammonia, and the organic polystyrene cores were removed by calcination at high temperature to generate nonspherical hollow micro-particles with complex morphologies. This process can be used to prepare hollow particles with shapes such as doublets, tetrahedra, icosahedra, and others.

Direct coating of catalyst layer on the $Nafion^{(R)}$ membrane has been optimized in the process of fabrication of membrane electrode assembly (MEA) to enhance the performance of direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). In this method, the contact resistance at the interface of the catalyst layer and the membrane was found to be low. The effect of catalyst loading, thickness of membrane and the gas diffusion layer (GDL) with or without the presence of micro-porous layer (MPL) on the performance of the MEA was also investigated. The MEA fabricated by the above-mentioned method exhibited a performance of $147\;mW/cm^2$ and $100\;mW/cm^2$ at $80^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively, with the catalysts loading of $4\;mg/cm^2$.

Tau protein is one of the microtubule-associated proteins in the mammalian brain. In Alzheimer's disease, tau protein is immobilized in the somatodendritic compartment of certain nerve cells, where it forms a part of the paired helical filament (PHF). To understand the role of tau protein in the formation of PHF, a recombinant human tau protein expressed in Escherichia coli and five synthetic peptide fragments (peptide 1 to peptide 5), corresponding to the C-terminal region of tau protein, were prepared and their ability in self-assembly to form filamentous structures was examined. The recombinant human tau protein formed short rod-like structures in 0.1M MES buffer containing 1 mM $MgCI_2$, while a synthetic peptide fragment 1 containing 55 amino acid residues could assemble into a lot of long filamentous structures in water and particularly twisted helical structures in 0.1M MES buffer containing 1 mM $MgCI_2$. This suggests that the C-terminal region possesses a filament-forming ability and may be related to the formation of the helical structure by providing a powerful filament-forming driving force.

The flexibility as well as the stiffness is required to perform mechanical function of a structure such as compliant mechanisms, which can be applied to MEMS(Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), flexible manufacturing devices, and design for no assembly. In this paper, the optimal design problem to achieve both structural flexibility and stiffness is formulated using multi-objective function, and the optimization problem is resolved by using Finite Element Method(FEM) and Sequential Linear Programming(SLP). Design examples of compliant mechanisms are presented to validate the design method.

In the modern packaging technologies highly condensed metal interconnects are typically formed by highcost processes. These methods inevitably require the precise controls of mutually dependant process parameters, which usually cause the difficulty of the change in the layout design for interconnects of chip to-chip, or chip-to-substrate. In order to overcome these problems, the unique concept and methodology of self-assembly even in micro-meter scale were developed. In this report we focus on the factors which influenced the self-formed bumps by analyzing the phenomenon experimentally. In case of RMA flux, homogenous pattern was obtained in both plain surface and cross-section surface observation. By using RA flux, the phenomena were accelerated although the self-formtion results was inhomogenous. With ussage of moderate RA flux, reaction rate of the self-formation was accelerated with homogeneous pattern.

The purpose of this work is to find an appropriate welding approach for rotor assembly of a marine turbocharger. The friction welding and laser welding of dissimilar materials, IN713LC and SCM440 were investigated. The quality of the welded joints obtained from two welding processes was evaluated by microstructure observation, micro-hardness and tensile tests. The friction welded joint indicated a good bonding structure in the weld interface. On the other hand, the laser welded joint showed the weld defects and non-welded area in the weld interface.

There have been many researches for small scale packages such as CSP, BGA, and Flipchip. Underfill encapsulant technology is one of the latest assembly technologies. The underfill encapsulant could enhance the reliability of the packages by flowing into the gap between die and substrate. In this paper, the effects of underfill packages by both aspects of thermal and mechanical reliabilities are studied. Especially, it is focused to value board-level reliability whether by the underfill is applied or not. First of all, The predicted thermal fatigue lifes of underfilled and no underfilled $\mu$ BGA solder joints are performed by Coffin-Manson's equation and FEA program, ANSYS(version 5.62). Also, the thermal fatigue lifes of $\mu$ BGA solder joints are experimented by thermal cycle test during the temperature, 218K to 423k. Consequently, both experimental and numerical study show that $\mu$ BGA with underfill has over ten times better fatigue lift than $\mu$ BGA without underfill.
