For ${\sim}240$ nearby stars their age and mass were determined and kinematic parameters determined for 362 stars, applying Woolley's three-dimensional potential. Metallicity and kinematic parameters of these stars were correlated with their age, suggesting the slow collapse ($t{\gtrsim}a$ few billion years) of the Galaxy and the initial rapid enrichment in metal abundance (${\Delta}Z{\approx}1/3Z_1$(present) for ${\sim}4{\times}10^8$ yrs). The late slow enrichment rate is given by $d(Z/Z_{\odot})/dt=5.9{\sim}7.0{\pm}3.4$ per Gyr.

High order statistical parameters were evaluated using the electrochemical noise data collected during corrosion of type 430 stainless steel coupled to a inert, platinum electrode in 3.5% NaCl solution. High order statistical parameters are shown to predict uniform corrosion properly. However, Localization index, skewness of current, kurtosis and skewness of potential are capable of predicting pitting corrosion only when the transients are large with long life time. Of the high order statistical parameters evaluated, kurtosis of current is found to be the most sensitive parameter for detecting uniform and pitting corrosion.

This study performed experiments for measuring corrosion potential and current density variations in the polarzation curves of polyvinylchloride. The results were examined to identify particular influences affectingthe corrosion potential such as temperature, pH, enzyme, and salt. The lines representing active anodic dissolution were only slightly shifted in the potential direction by temperature, pH, enzyme and salt. The Tafel slope for the anodic dissolution was determined using the polarization effect with varying conditions. The slope of the polarization curves describing the active-to-passive transition region was noticeably shifted in the potential direction. In addition, using the variation in conditions, the best temperature and pH were determined for the corrosion rate, and resistance of corrosion. The second anodic current density peak and maximum passive current density were designated as degraded(IP/I0). The value of IP/I0 was used in measuring the extent of the degradation of the polyvinychloride. The potentiodynamic parameters of the corrosion were obtained using a Tafel plot.

We model lattice-mismatched group III-V semiconductor $In_{x}Ga_{1-x}$ alloys with the three-parameter anharmonic Kirkwood-Keating potential, which includes realistic distortion effect by introducing anharmonicity. Although the potential parameters were determined based on optical properties of the binary parent alloys InAs and GaAs, simulated dielectric functions, reflectance, and Raman spectra of alloys agree excellently with experimental data for any arbitrary atomic composition. For a wide range of atomic composition, InAs- and GaAs-bond retain their respective properties of binary parent crystals despite lattice and charge mismatch. It implies that use of the anharmonic Kirkwood-Keating potential may provide an optimal model system to investigate diverse and unique optical properties of quantum dot heterostructures by circumventing potential parameter searches for particular local structures.

In using a performance model of a torque converter determined by its gemetric condition, it is possible that the analysis of two arbitrary converters produces the the same results because of the same value of equivalent parameters despite their different shapes. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the effect of shape factor on dynamic perfomance, and equivalent parameters reoresenting a performace model of a converter should into its defined by the behavior of flow field. In this study, torus flow of a torque converter is changed into its equivalent system defined by the behavior of flow, and govering equations for the system are presented and used for analysis. Equivalent parameters are obtained from the results of flow analysis and are compared with parameters of one dimensional performance model. The influence that shape change of a converter has on the behavior of flow and the equivalent parameters is studied qualitatively.

In this paper, potential distribution analysis through the six kinds of case studies examined in the environmental conditions change within a limited space, by the power supply system installed. To interpret the potential distribution using electromagnetic field analysis program and the parameters were state of the ground, the outer wall of the configuration state and the presence of human potential distribution was simulated. Potential distribution analysis, the size of nominal voltage, depending on the impedance of human body to be determined on the impact of surprise decision, but if equipped with appropriate protective equipment can be protected from lightning have been confirmed.

Experiments were carried out to measure the corrosion potential and current density variations in the polarization curves of polypropylene. In particular, the results were examined to identify those influences affecting the corrosion potential, such as temperature, pH, salt, and oxygen. The Tafel slope for the anodic dissolution was determined based on the polarization effect under various conditions. Furthermore, the optimum conditions for the most rapid transformation were establish based on a variety of conditions, including temperature, pH, corrosion rate, and resistance of corrosion potential. The second anodic current density peak and maximum passive current density were designated as the critical corrosion sensitivity(I(sub)r/I(sub)f). This I(sub)r/I(sub)f value was then used to measure the critical corrosion sensitivity of polypropylene. The potentiodynamic parameters of corrosion were obtained using a Tafel plot.

In micro electrochemical machining(micro-ECM), it is important to measure and control the potential of a tool electrode and a workpiece electrode because electrochemical reaction rate depends on the potential of the electrodes. When the electrode potential was measured against a reference electrode, the error of measured electrode potential could be minimized by proper tool electrode design. In this paper, multi-function electrodes consisting of a tool electrode and a reference electrode was fabricated by micro fabrication techniques. The machining conditions in micro-ECM using multi-function electrodes, such as pulse voltage parameters and electrode potential, were investigated.

The equation of state developed herein is predicated on a hard-sphere reference with perturbations introduced via a potential function to account for electrostatic forces and for attraction between protein particles. During this process, the generalized Lennard-Jones (GLJ) pair potential function is employed. The GLJ pair potential function is employed to represent the protein-protein interaction in two-protein systems. Via the use of the relation between the equation of state and the chemical potential, the phase behavior in the aqueous two-protein system can be estimated. The partition coefficients can be obtained via these processes. The calculated values of the coefficients agree fairly well with the experimental data in the given pH and ionic strength range, with no additional adjustable model parameters.
