The effects of various nozzle configurations on infrared signature are investigated for the purpose of analysing the infrared signature level of aircraft propulsion system. A virtual subsonic aircraft is selected and then a circular convergent nozzle, which meets the mission requirements, is designed. Convergent nozzles of different configurations are designed with different geometric profiles. Using a compressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier CFD code, an analysis of thermal flow field and nozzle surface temperature distribution is conducted. From the information of plume flow field and nozzle surface temperature distribution, IR signature of plume and nozzle surface is calculated through the narrow-band model and the RadThermIR code. Finally, qualitative information for IR signature reduction is obtained through the analysis of the effects of various nozzle configurations on IR signature.

Graphene, with impressive electronic properties, have high potential in the microelectronic field. However, graphene itself is a zero bandgap material which is not suitable for digital logic gates and its application. Thus, much focus is on graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) that are narrow strips of graphene. During GNRs fabrication process, the occurrence of defects that ultimately change electronic properties of graphene is difficult to avoid. The modelling of GNRs with defects is crucial to study the non-idealities effects. In this work, nearest-neighbor tight-binding (TB) model for GNRs is presented with three main simplifying assumptions. They are utilization of basis function, Hamiltonian operator discretization and plane wave approximation. Two major edges of GNRs, armchair-edged GNRs (AGNRs) and zigzag-edged GNRs (ZGNRs) are explored. With single vacancy (SV) defects, the components within the Hamiltonian operator are transformed due to the disappearance of tight-binding energies around the missing carbon atoms in GNRs. The size of the lattices namely width and length are varied and studied. Non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism is employed to obtain the electronics structure namely band structure and density of states (DOS) and all simulation is implemented in MATLAB. The band structure and DOS plot are then compared between pristine and defected GNRs under varying length and width of GNRs. It is revealed that there are clear distinctions between band structure, numerical DOS and Green's function DOS of pristine and defective GNRs.

A micro-macroscopic analysis on the conduction-controlled directional casting of Al-Cu alloys is performed, in which emphases are placed on the microstructural features. In order to facilitate the solution procedure, an iterative micro-macroscopic coupling algorithm is developed. The predicted results show that the effect of finite back diffusion on the transient solidification process in comparison with the lever rule depends essentially on the initial concentration of an alloy. In the final casting, the eutectic fraction is distributed in an increasing-decreasing-increasing pattern, each mode of which is named the chill, interior and end zones. This nonuniformity per se suffices to justify the necessity of this work because it originates from the combined effects of finite back diffusion and cooling path-dependent nature of the eutectic formation. As the cooling rate is enhanced, not only the influence depths of boundaries narrow, but also the eutectic fractions in the chill and interior zones increase. In addition, it is revealed for the first time that the micro segregation band is formed in response to a sudden change in cooling rate during the directional casting. An increasing change creates an overshooting band in the eutectic fraction distribution, and vice versa.

NOAA 위성의 narrow-band AVHRR(Advanced Very. High Resolution Radiometer) 적 외선 채널과 broad-band 0.2 - 50$\mu\textrm{m}$ 영역의 ERBE(Earth Radiation Budget Experiment) scanning instrument에 의하여 관측된 radiance로부터 추정된 지구의 대기 외장파복사량 (Outgoing Longwave Radiation:OLR) 이 비교조사되었다. 이를 위하여 1985년 4월, 7월, 10월과 1986년 1월에 위성에서 관측된 radiance를 각각 이용하였고 비교된 OLR은 위도와 경도가 각각 2.5$^{\circ}$ 간격으로 구분된 grid내에서 일치(collocate)시켜 지역별(zonal), 그리고 전지구(global)규모 로 비교되었다. ERBE와 AVHRR에 의하여 각각 추정된 OLR값의 차(ERBE minus AVHRR)에 의한 분석 결과는 주간의 경우 -1~2 W/m$^2$의 값과 야간의 경우 4~7 W/m$^2$의 값으로 비교적 좋은 일치를 보였지만 이들의 RMS는 하절(6월)에 12 W/m$^2$와 동절(12월)에 5 W/m$^2$의 값으로 다소 높은 차이를 보였다. 한편, 이들 OLR값을 관측지역에 따라 큰 차 이를 나타내어 사막지역과 아열대고기압(subtropical ocean)대에서는 상반된 결과를 보였다. 이들 지역에 대한 차이는 지역적 기온구조와 지표온도의 영향을 다 고려하지 못하고 OLR 측정치를 도 출하는 대기복사모델(radiation model)의 regional systematic bias에서 기인된 것으로 해석된다. 즉 사막의 지표역전층에 대한 AVHRR과 해면의 대기구조에 대한 ERBE의 OLR은 상반된 영향을 보였다.

Disks around protostars are the birthplace of planets. The first step toward planet formation is grain growth from ㎛-sized grains to mm/cm-sized grains in a disk, particularly in dense regions. In order to study whether grains grow and segregate at the protostellar stage, we investigate the ALMA Band 3 (3.1 mm) and 7 (0.87 mm) dust continuum observations of the protostellar disk WL 17 in ρ Ophiuchus L1688 cloud. As reported in a previous study, the Band 3 image shows substructures: a narrow ring and a large central hole. On the other hand, the Band 7 image shows different substructures: a non-axisymmetric ring and an off-center hole. The two-band observations provide a mean spectral index of 2.3, which suggests the presence of mm/cm-sized large grains. Its non-axisymmetric distribution may imply dust segregation between small and large grains. We perform radiative transfer modeling to examine the size and spatial distributions of dust grains in the WL 17 disk. The best-fit model suggests that large grains (>1 cm) exist in the disk, settling down toward the midplane, whereas small grains (~10 ㎛) well mixed with gas are distributed off-center and non-axisymmetrically in a thick layer. The low spectral index and the modeling results suggest that grains rapidly grow at the protostellar stage and that grains differently distribute depending on sizes, resulting in substructures varying with observed wavelengths. To understand the differential grain distributions and substructures, we discuss the effects of the protoplanet(s) expected inside the large hole and the possibility of gravitational instability.

An edgetone is the discrete tone or narrow-band sound produced by an oscillating free shear layer, impinging on a rigid surface. In this paper, 2-dimensional edgetone to predict the frequency characteristics of the discrete oscillations of a jet-edge feedback cycle is presented using lattice Boltmznan model with 21 bits, which is introduced a flexible specific heat ratio y to simulate diatomic gases like air. The blown jet is given a parabolic inflow profile for the velocity, and the edges consist of wedges with angle 20 degree (for symmetric wedge) and 23 degree (for inclined wedge), respectively. At a stand-off distance w, the edge is inserted along the centerline of the jet, and a sinuous instability wave with real frequency is assumed to be created in the vicinity of the nozzle exit and to propagate towards the downward. Present results presented have shown in capturing small pressure fluctuating resulting from periodic oscillation of the jet around the edge. The pressure fluctuations propagate with the speed of sound. Their interaction with the wedge produces an irrotational feedback field which, near the nozzle exit, is a periodic transverse flow producing the singularities at the nozzle lips. It is found that, as the numerical example, satisfactory simulation results on the edgetone can be obtained for the complex flow-edge interaction mechanism, demonstrating the capability of the lattice Boltzmann model with flexible specific heat ratio to predict flow-induced noises in the ventilating systems of ship.

This paper examines the theoretical and empirical technology diffusion processes to understand the Korean success in the internet access service markets. In order to do this, first, we propose an integrated demand diffusion model in terms of competition of inter-and intra-technologies and market structure as represented by the number of operators in the market. Second, by using the proposed model, we analyze the dynamic diffusion processes of Korean internet access services such as Narrow-band technology including Dial modem vs. Broad-band technology including ISDN, xDSL and Cable modem. The competition of inter-and intra-technologies as well as the extent of market competition has made a positive effect on the diffusion patterns of internet access demand. And also we propose, based on the proposed model and its empirical results, several implications for diffusion strategies and policies in the future of ICT market in Korea.

Detailed flame structures of the opposed flames formed for different oxidant compositions are studied numerically. The detailed chemical reactions are modeled by using the CHEMKIN code. Only the $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ are assumed to participate by absorbing the radiative energy while all other gases are assumed to be transparent. The discrete ordinates method and the narrow band based WSGGM with a gray gas regrouping technique are applied for modeling the radiative transfer through non-homogeneous and non-isothermal combustion gas mixtures generated by the opposed flow flames. The results show that the different radiation model can cause different results for flame structures and the WSGGM with gray gas regrouping is successful in modeling the opposed flames with non-gray gas mixture. The numerical results show that the increases in $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ compositions cause to reduce the flame temperature and the NO formation.

We performed a spatially resolved spectroscopic study of the thermal composite supernova remnant 3C 391 by the Chandra observation. Broad- and narrow-band X-ray images show a southeast-northwest elongated morphology and unveil a highly clumpy structure of the remnant. The spectral analysis for. the small-scale features indicates normal metal abundance and uniform temperature for the interior gas. The properties of the hot gas are largely in agreement with the cloudlet evaporation model as a main mechanism for the 'thermal composite' X-ray appearance, though radiative rim and thermal conduction may also be effective. An unresolved X-ray source, with a power-law spectrum, is observed on the northwest border. The equivalent width images reveal a faint finger-like protrusion in Si and S lines out of the southwest radio border.

This research proposes a method to estimate the fatigue life of solid-state drive(SSD) due to the effect of dummy solder ball under forced vibration. Mechanical jig is developed to describe the SSD in laptop computer. The jig with SSD is mounted on a shaker, and excited by a sinusoidal sweep vibration within the narrow frequency band around the first resonant frequency until the SSD fails. A finite element model of SSD is also developed to simulate the forced vibration. It shows that the solder joints at the corners of controller package are most vulnerable components and that placing dummy solder balls at those area is effective method to increase fatigue life of SSD.
