The formulation for hybrid-QUICK scheme of convective transport terms in finite-volume calculation procedure is presented. Source terms are modified to apply the hybrid-QUICK scheme. Test calculations are performed for wall-driven cavity flow at Re=$10_2$, $10_3$, and $10_4$. These include the evaluation of boundary conditions approximated by third-order finite difference scheme. The stable and converged solutions are obtained without unsteady terms in the momentum equations. The results using hybrid-QUICK scheme show no difference with those using hybrid scheme at low Re ($=10_2$) and are better at higher Re ($10_3$, and $10_4$).

This paper proposes a test method for compliance of SMS encoder and decoder modules with 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) specification on SMS PDU (Protocol Data Unit). The existing tools have focused on providing an SMS gateway and on helping to view and edit a single SMS PDU, which rarely help to resolve the compliance test problem. The proposed compliance test method is based on an automatic generation of SMS PDUs fully compliant with the 3GPP specification by using QuickCheck library written in Haskell. By applying the proposed method to a C-based SMS encoder and decoder in Linux Mobile platform, we have found out several critical bugs such as wrong interpretation of time stamps in BCD format. The automatic SMS PDU generator is reusable in that it only depends on the 3GPP SMS specification. The QuickCheck library is also applicable for testing other network protocol data encoders and decoders, as used in this paper.

Railroad, the structure maintenance and restoration project was increased and widely performed in concrete pavement road and airport, building at downtown area, bridge abutment, and other concrete structures. Especially, the ground reinforcement technique by quick-reaction expansible resins is the most effective countermeasures against differential settlement and undesired deformation of structure. In this paper, the unconfined compressive strength and some environmental related tests were conducted to evaluate compressive strength and environmental effect of quick-reaction expansive resins and soil mixtures. Also, three case histories of concrete structure and railroad restoration project are presented. Based on the laboratory test, the quick-reaction expansible resins and soil mixture represent the sufficient compressive strength and the leachate material is satisfied the environmental regulation limits. As a result of this study, the structure restoration technology using quick-reaction expansible resins is very effective for restoration of differential settlement and deformation, and it is environmentally sustainable technology.

Quick hardened property and compressive strength experimented to the C4A3 quantities. Workability experimented to the hydration behavior as retarder added to the C4A3. Compressive strength reached {{{{ delta }}3h=300~350 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, {{{{ delta }}6h=400~450 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, {{{{ delta }}24h=500~550 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Flow loss rate reached 70.1% to retarder addition 0.12% after 15 min. Test items were SEM, XRD, TG-DTA, MCC, porosity and zeta potential.

To find a quick test procedure for soil nitrate concentration, two methods, i.e. "Nitracheck 404" reflectometer (Eijkelkamp, Netherlands) with nitrate test strip and a portable colorimeter "Hanna Ion Specific meter(USA) with a color development reagent, were tested for twenty soils with different nitrate contents ranged between from $10mg\;kg^{-1}$ to $340mg\;kg^{-1}$. The standard deviation, coefficient of variability, and recovery from these quick test procedures were compared with those measured by conventional Kjeldahl distillation method and nitrate ion electrode method. The nitrate concentration measured by portable colorimeter method was higher in soils with low concentration and lower in soils with high concentration than those measured by conventional methods. However, concentrations measured by test strip reflectometer method was showed the similar coefficient of variability and recovery as those by conventional methods for all soil samples. From the experimental results in this study, the test strip reflectometer method was thought to be recommendable one revealed the satisfied results for accuracy, quickness, and simplicity for field test of soil nitrate concentration.

We have performed experimental studies for the improvements of pneumatic brake systems of freight trains. Currently, most of the freight trains operated by the Korean National Railroad have either empty-load or diaphragm type brake systems. In this study, appropriate methods that the air pressure characteristics in both type of brake systems are in accordance with each other have been investigated. We have also performed running tests using a 30 car-train set to design optimum capacity of a quick release valve. The test results show that the quick release valve is considerably effective in shortening the release time of the diaphragm type brake system. In the case of a normal brake application, the diaphragm type brake system with the quick release valve reduces the release time to 34% of that of the system without the quick release valve. This release time is almost equivalent to that of the empty-load type brake system. Accordance of braking performance in different types of brake systems in a train set is expected to prevent wheel flats and to reduce maintenance costs.

This research evaluates the change of the water absorbency and drying speed of a quick-drying knit fabric by repeated laundering and laundering conditions and investigates the influence of laundering conditions on the functional properties of the knit fabric. Four factors of laundering conditions were studied: detergent, water hardness, water temperature, and frequency of rotation. Knit fabrics were washed for 25 laundering cycles in a drum-type washing machine with nine different laundering conditions derived from an orthogonal array. The properties of knit fabrics were measured with a drop absorption test, a strip test, and a drying time test. Relaxation shrinkage pointed to a change in the structural characteristics of the knit fabric. Wetting time was faster and wickability was greater in the knit fabrics that underwent 5 laundering cycles; in addition, there were no obvious changes in wetting time and wickability. The detergent was the most important factor in wetting time (40.4%) and wickability (60% or above). Water hardness, water temperature and RPM had less of an effect on wetting time and wickability. There were no significant differences between the levels of laundering conditions (except for detergent) on wetting time and wickability. Drying times with neutral and alkali were slower by repeated laundering; however, there was no obvious change in drying time. Hardness, water temperature and RPM had less of an impact on drying time.

Purpose: This study was conducted for enhancing the performance of a conventional quick freezer by introducing the supercooling state, using a low-temperature coolant. Methods: In the present investigation, the supercooling process was executed prior to quick freezing for reducing the time by which the temperature passes the zone of maximum ice crystal formation. Every food has different nucleation points and hence, we used silicone oil as the coolant for supercooling for easy modification of temperature. Additionally, for quick freezing, we used liquid nitrogen spray. Results: Using the heat exchanger-type precooler with silicone oil, the temperature of the chamber was easily changed for enabling supercooling. Particularly, the results of the freezing test with garlic indicated that this system improved the hardness of garlic after it was thawed, compared to the conventional freezing method. Conclusions: Before quick freezing, if the food item is subjected to the supercooling state, the time from nucleation to the temperature reaching the frozen state ($-5^{\circ}C$, which is the maximum ice crystal formation zone) will be shorter than that incurred using quick freezing alone. The combination of the heat exchanger-type supercooler and liquid nitrogen sprayer is expected to serve as a promising technology for improving the physicochemical qualities of frozen foods.

Cross-over errors (XOEs) may mislead scientists when interpreting marine geophysical data. Such risk can be reduced by correcting the data proportionally between two cross-over points (XOPs). C program is presented to determine XOPs using a quick rejection test and a straddle test, and to adjust XOEs using a weighted linear interpolation algorithm.
