A cholesterol-bridge-naphthopyran dyad (NP-MCB) was designed and synthesized. NP-MCB can readily self-assemble into gels under ultrasound-radiation in several organic solvents and the formed gels easily transfer to solution by heat. This reversible process can be repeated many times. Scanning Electron Microscopy results showed that the morphologies of all formed xerogels in different solvents have fibrillar microstructure. The gels formation was due to energy and pressure afforded by the ultrasonic process, resulting in formation of molecular hydrogen bonding and molecular aggregation. NP-MCB displayed the normal photochromism both in solution and gel states. The kinetic results confirm that the colored merocyanine in gels show a slower fading speed than that in solution due to the compact aggregation of NP-MCB molecules in gels. The xerogel film formed in polar gelling solvent had large surface wettability than that in nonpolar gelling solvent.

The gas evolution from mixtures consisting of 0.2 M solution of N,N,N',N'-tetra-n-octyldiglycolamide (TODGA) in n-alcohol (n-decanol or n-nonanol) with Isopar-M diluent was investigated during thermal oxidation. The effect of ionizing radiation on their thermal stability has been studied. It has been determined that the volume of gaseous thermolysis products increases by 260% in the case of n-nonanol and 80% in the case of n-decanol compared to non-irradiated solutions. It has been shown that the gas evolution rate and gas volume increase when the irradiated mixture saturated with nitric acid is heated. However, there are no prerequisites for the development of autocatalytic oxidation.

This paper presents theoretical formulations and numerical computations for predicting first-and second-order hydrodynamic force on a ship advvancing in waves. The theoretical formulation leads to linearized radiation and diffration problems solving the three-dimensional Green function integral equations over the mean wetted body surface. Green function representing a translating and pulsating source potantial for infinite water depth is used. In order to solve integral equations for three dimentional flows using Green function efficiently, the Hoff's method is adopted for numerical calculation of the Green function. Based on the first-order solution, the mean seconder-order forces and moments are obtained by directly integrating second-order pressure over the mean wetted body surface. The calculated items are carried out for analyzing the seakeeping characteristics of Series 60. The calculated items are hydrodynamic coefficients, wave exciting forces, frequency response functions and addd resistance in waves.

A direct boundary element method (DBEM) is developed for thin bodies whose surfaces are rigid or compliant. The Helmholtz integral equation and its normal derivative integral equation are adoped simultaneously to calculate the pressure on both sides of the thin body, instead of the jump values across it, to account for the different surface conditions of each side. Unlike the usual assumption, the normal velocity is assumed to be discontinuous across the thin body. In this approach, only the neutral surface of the thin body has to be discretized. The method is validated by comparison with analytic and/or numerical results for acoustic scattering and radiation from several surface conditions of the thin body; the surfaces are rigid when stationary or vibrating, and part of the interior surface is lined with a sound-absoring material.

This paper summarizes a design procedure of radiated noise from engine blocks of marine engines. This air-borne noise is one of the significant noise contributors including the aeroacoustic noise due to intake and exhaust and the re-radiation due to structure-borne noise. Excitation forces by engine operations are evaluated taking into account the power generation mechanism from the burning process to the subsequence motion of internal parts; piston, connecting rod, and crank shaft. The acoustic transfer vector method is incorporated to effectively simulate the radiated noise field under the various operation conditions. A contribution analysis for the various excitations to the radiated noise is conducted. It is found that the firing pressure is the main source of the radiated noise, and so the structure of the cylinder can be modified to significantly reduce the radiated noise from the engine block.

우리나라 수자원 관리에서 여름 유량은 이수 및 치수 측면에서 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 이러한 점에서 여름유량의 예측 가능성을 검토하는 것은 수자원 관리에 유연성을 주는 동시에 상대적으로 위험도를 저감시킬 수 있는 역할을 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 여름 계절 유량을 대상으로 기상인자와의 상관성 분석을 통해 유량 예측을 위한 수문기상정보(hydroclimatics)를 전 지구적으로 검토하고 최종적으로 불확실성을 고려할 수 있는 Ensemble예측을 실시하고자 한다. Ensemble예측은 설정 가능한 입력 자료를 통하여 다수의 출력자료를 얻는 방법론으로서 불확실성이 큰 기상 및 수문기상자료 분석에 주로 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 해수면온도(sea surface temperature), 해수면기압(sea level pressure)과 방출장파복사에너지(outgoing longwave radiation)를 주요 기상인자로 고려하였으며 예측모형으로서는 Cross Ensemble(out of bagging)방법에 근거한 Support Vector Machine 모형을 이용하였다. 분석결과 주요 기상인자와 50%이상의 상관관계를 보이고 있으며 다소 합리적인 예측 결과를 제시하여 주고 있어 수자원관리를 위한 보조수단으로 이용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Ignition of $NH_3-O_2-Ar$ mixtures have been studied behind reflected shock waves over the temperature range of 1600-2300 K and the pressures in the range of 1.1-1.6 atm. The pressure profile and the radiation emitted behind the shock waves have been monitored to give empirical correlations between ignition delay times and the mixture concentrations with the experimental conditions. On the basis of this data, several kinetic mechanisms proposed for ammonia oxidation at high temperatures have been tested. The ignition delay times obtained from the mechanism proposed by Miller and Smook were in good agreement with our experimental results.

A mathematical model of freeze drying by sublimation was suggested and used to estimate the drying time. Under the various conditions, the drying time of pure water and carrot was numerically calculated for the suggested model. Optimal policies of freeze drying were investigated experimentally in a laboratory freeze dryer. It was found that the shortest drying times could be obtained when the chamber pressure and condenser temperature were kept at their lowest values and the best method of heat transfer for sublimation was the conduction involving radiation. The sublimation drying period was finished when the bottom temperature of material could be reached at near $0^{\circ}C$ from frozen temperature.

Tungsten and tungsten heavy alloys have widespread application as radiation shielding devices and heavy duty electrical contacts. High density and good room temperature mechanical properties have generated interest in evaluating tungsten and tungsten alloys as kinetic energy penetrators against armor. Nowdays ultra fine-grained tungsten powders are in great interest because higly dense structures can be obtained at low temperature, pressure and lower sintering time. Several physical md chemical methods are available for the synthesis of nanometric metal Powders: ball milling, laser abalation, vapor condensation, chemical precipitation, metallic wire explosion i.e. However production rates of the above mentioned methods are low and further efforts are needed to find out large-scale synthesis methods. From this point of view solid state combustion method ( known as SHS) represents undoubted interest.

Nuclear power plants has a number of valves, which are operating at a high temperature-high pressure and radiation environment conditions. Nevertheless, it is important to maintain the reliability of the valves to ensure safe operation of the nuclear power plant. However, the aging of the valves by increasing of years of plant operation and the system transients due to the sudden load change are working the failures of the reliability of the valve. In this paper, we evaluate experimentally the performance change according to the thermal aging of the valve. Results show that the valve stem and the actuator leakages were enlarged by the thermal aging.
