The study of mixed convection in a room with heated bottom surface and various partitions has been numerically investigated using a finite volume method. The parameters studied here are, 50$\overline{Nu}=\overline{Nu_n}{\cdot}(1+c(Re/Gr^{1/2})^d)$, where $\overline{Nu_n}$ corresponds to pure natural convextion.

Convective heat transfer in a two-dimensional horizontal and vertical channel with isothermal rectangular beams attached to one adiabatic wall is investigated from the numerical solution of Navier-Stokes and energy equations. The solutions have been obtained for dimensionless beam spacings, S/L=1~4, aspect ratios of beam, H/B=0.25~4, Reynolds numbers, Re=50~1000 and Grashof numbers, $Gr=0{\sim}5{\times}10^4$. The total mean Nusselt number, Nu_T for horizontal and vertical channels shows same value at Gr=0. As Gr increases, Nu_T for horizontal channel increases, but Nu_T for vertical channel shows similar value at S/L=2, H/B=0.25, Re=100. The total mean Nusselt number for horizontal channel is higher than that for vertical channel. As H/B increases, $Nu_T$ for both channel decrease at $Gr=10^4$, Re=100.

Recently, support vector learning attracts great interests in the areas of pattern classification, function approximation, and abnormality detection. It is well-known that among the various support vector learning methods, the so-called no-versions are particularly useful in cases that we need to control the total number of support vectors. In this paper, we consider the problem of function approximation utilizing both predetermined basis functions and a no-version support vector learning called $\nu-SVR$. After reviewing $\varepsilon-SVR$, $\nu-SVR$, and a semi-parametric approach, this paper presents an extension of the conventional $\nu-SVR$ method toward the direction that can utilize Predetermined basis functions. Moreover, the applicability of the presented method is illustrated via an example.

To investigate the flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with glass fiber sheets, 1 control beam and 8 strengthened beams (4 NU-beams without U-shaped band and 4 U-beams with U-shaped band) are tested. The variables of experiment are composed of the number of glass fiber sheets and the existence of U-shaped band, etc. The maximum load was increased by 48% and 34%, and the flexural rigidity by 920% and 880% for NU-beam and U-beam, respectively, compared with those of the control beam. The ductility ratios were 1.43$\sim$2.60 for NU-beam and U-beam. The experimental results showed that the strengthening system with U-shaped band controls the premature debonding and provides a more ductile failure mode than the strengthening system without U-shaped band. It can be found from the load-deflection curves that as the number of fiber sheets is increased, the maximum strength and the flexural rigidity is increased. The experimental results are compared with the analytical results of nonlinear flexural behaviors for strengthened RC beam. The experimental and analytical results were well agreed.

Formal specification plays important roles in guaranteeing software safety of safety-critical systems such as nuclear power plant's digital control systems. We had developed a technique [1] which synthesizes Function Block Diagram(FBD) programs from NuSCR formal requirements specifications, but it did not be used widely as it had no automatic tool support. FBD is one of the programming languages for Programmable Logic Controllers(PLC) based system. This paper introduces a CASE tool, NuSCRtoFBD, developed to automate the synthesis procedure. The CASE tool NuSCRtoFBD can reduce a number of errors occurred in the process of manual FBD programming.

The purpose of this research is to study the characteristics of heat transfer in composite rotary heat pipe as modeled turbine rotating by a finite element analysis and experiment. Nu number, Re number, Pr number and dimensionless condensate layer thickness by thermal input and revolutions per minute were given as analysis factors. The comparison between calculated and experimental data showed similar tendency. Therefore the analysis method may be useful to predict the performance of composite heat pipe. The resistance on heat pipe showed the best effect of heat transfer by film condensation, by decreasing film condensation, the heat transfer rate from condenser was increased rapidly. The dimensionless condensate layer thickness according to Re number at given Pr number showed constant values, the dimensionless condensate layer thickness is proportionate to the square root of inverse of revolution number per minute. In this study Nu=A$({\delta}({\omega}/v)^{-1/2}Re^B)$ is used to the convection heat transfer coefficient and A=0.963, B=0.5025 were obtained as analysis predicts.

For n random strips chosen so as to meet a fixed bounded convex set K of the plane we let $\nu$ be the number of intersection regions that meet K. We develop the integral formula for the mean value of $\nu$ and $\nu^2$ involving the area and the perimeter of K and the breadths of the strips. We get some geometric inequalities in way of studying integral geometry.

This study examined the natural convection heat flow characteristics of the melting process of PCM (palm oil) inside a liquid flexitank(bag) for a cargo container. A film heating element was installed on the bottom of the container, and numerical analysis was performed under heat flux conditions of 1,000 to 4,000 W/m². As a result, the melt interface of the PCM rises to a nearly horizontal state over time. In the initial stage, conduction heat transfer dominates, but gradually waves at the cell flow and melt interfaces are formed due to natural convection heat transfer. As melting progresses, the Ra number increases parabolically, and the Nu number increases linearly and has a constant value. The Nu number rises slowly under low heat flux conditions, whereas under high heat flux conditions, the Nu number rises rapidly. As the heat flux increases, the internal temperature oscillation of the liquid phase after melting increases. However, under high heat flux conditions, excess heat exceeding the latent heat is generated, and the temperature of the molten liquid is raised, so the increase in melting rate decreases. Therefore, the appropriate heating element specification applied to a 20-ton palm oil container is 2,000 W/m².

PET/CT is a machine for imaging in vivo functions or metabolic activities after the administration of radiopharmaceuticals labeled with radioisotope emitting positrons in the body. Recently the number of PET/CT installed in Korean medical institutions is increasing rapidly. In response, the number of PET/CT tests to be used in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors is also increasing every year, and this is increasing the necessity for developing the methods of PET/CT performance evaluation and quality control. Among the test items for the performance evaluation and quality control of PET/CT suggested in NU 2-2007, this study examined spatial resolution test, sensitivity test, image quality, attenuation accuracy & scatter correction test, scatter fraction, count losses and randoms test and accuracy( correction for count losses and randoms).

The ultraviolet and visable absorption spectra of trans, cis-azoxybenzene, substituted azoxybenzenes and their conjugate acids have been studied. The 320-350$m{\mu}$ main bands of free-base of azoxybenzenes are due to ${\pi}{\to}{\pi}^{\ast}$ transition. These bands of their conjugate acids shown bathochromic shift into visible range. The following emperical relationship between absorption maxima of the main bands was found. ${\lambda}_{max}={\lambda}^{\circ}_{max}+{\Delta}{\lambda}_x+{\Delta}{\lambda}_y$ This relationship in terms of wave number is also hold in good agreement. ${\nu}={\nu}_{\circ}-({\Delta}{\nu}_x+{\Delta}{\nu}_y)$
