In this paper, we report a system specifications of Hi-resolution and four-screen stereo image projection system which was established in VBL(Venture Business Laboratory) at Tokyo Institute of Technology on 3rd July 1996. The system is 3m $\times$ 3m $\times$2.2m rectangular parallelepiped composed of three 150inch side screens and floor. Host computers can generate virtual environment s in real-time and four projecters project these images to the screens. Viewers are, therefore, surrounded by these screens and an illusion of immersion can be created. Because, the views of users are completely covered with the projection images and many kinds of interactive devices can be used in this system. Moreover, many users can have experience the virtual environments at the same time. Usually, this kind of system uses hi-performance graphics workstations for host computers. One is SGI(Silicon Graphics, Inc.) Onyx with 3 Reality Engines. The other system is 4 personal computers. Because hi-performance and low price graphics accelerators for personal computer have been developed in these years, the abilities of VR(Virtual Reality) systems based on personal computers should be investigated.

A multilayer ceramic chip antenna with helical structure is analyzed to enhance the narrow bandwidth of conventional ceramic chip antennas. The simulations are performed by HFSS to verify the effects of structural parameters on impedance bandwidth. The multilayer ceramic chip antennas consist of a rectangular-parallelepiped ceramic body$({\varepsilon}_r=7.8,\; tan\; {\delta}=0.0043)$ and helical conductor patterns are embedded in the ceramic body using LTCC-MLC technology. 3D structure design of the multilayer ceramic chip antenna suitable for IMT-2000 (1,920~2,170 MHz) handset has been implemented, and experimental results are presented and discussed.

This is a study that surveyed and analyzed the present status of producing loess construction materials in Korea from 2006 to 2011. The findings are as follows. 1) More than 70% of loess construction material manufacturers are distributed in the capital area. Chungcheong-do and Gyeonggi-do are grown by about 20% on the annual average. 2) Shape of loess brick is possessed mostly by a rectangular parallelepiped. A hole shape, which has 1~5 holes among these things, is possessing a majority. 3) It was indicated to be 42 days as material age for the compressive strength, to be about 2.7Mpa for both extrusion and compression, and to be about 30% for absorptance. 4) Among the whole loess material manufacturers, it accounts for 87 for loess brick 66% for loess mortar and more than 39% for loess paint, but within 10%~15% for other loess products. 5) The main specifications of loess brick are $300{\times}150{\times}150,\;300{\times}150{\times}100,\;300{\times}200{\times}150,\;300{\times}150{\times}200$ in order of the output of 74kinds of loess bricks. 6) In order to improve the strength of building materials, mortar and concrete used loess, it is necessary to examine closely about the effect of ceramic binder and cement on loess products.

This study offers a Monte Carlo alternative for computing mass energy absorption coefficients of any material through calculation of photon energy deposited per mass of the sample and the energy flux obtained inside a sample volume. This approach is applied in this study to evaluate mass energy absorption coefficients of some amino acids found in human body at twenty-eight different photon energies between 10 keV and 20 MeV. The simulations involved a pencil beam source modeled to emit a parallel beam of mono-energetic photons toward a 1 mean free path thick sample of rectangular parallelepiped geometry. All the components in the problem geometry were surrounded by a 100 cm vacuum sphere to avoid any interactions in materials other than the absorber itself. The results computed using the Monte Carlo radiation transport packages MCNP6.2 and GAMOS5.1 were checked against the theoretical values available from the tables of XMUDAT database. These comparisons indicate very good agreement and support the conclusion that Monte Carlo technique utilized in this fashion may be used as a computational tool for determining the mass energy absorption coefficients of any material whose data are not available in the literature.

In this work, the open-drive oil free air compressor is modified to activate an organic Rankine cycle system as an expanding machine. The shape of the modified scroll expander case is a rectangular parallelepiped and the size of the case is $0.0394m^3$. The scroll expander is operated in an ORC using R245fa as working fluid with various working conditions for the performance test. The test data points are used to calculate the parameters of the scroll expander semi-empirical simulation model. The simulation results are compared with the experimental results to validate the simulation model.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability of 6-axis model surgery simulator (6AMSS) for orthognathic surgery. A rectangular parallelepiped plastic block was assembled to model-mounting plate of 6AMSS. Left-right (X), anterior-posterior (Y), up-down (Z) translation and pitching (${\phi}X$), rolling (${\phi}Y$) and yawing (${\phi}Z$) rotation was planned and performed using 6AMSS. The actual translation and rotation were measured with dial gauge and precisional protractor, respectively. Comparison between the planned and actual movements of plastic block for each variable were made using paired t- test. Statistical analysis for X, Y, Z, ${\phi}X$, ${\phi}Y$ and ${\phi}Z$ movement have shown no significant differences between planned and actual movement (P > 0.05). This indicate that model surgery performed with the aid of the 6AMSS is accurate in 3D translation and rotation. The 6AMSS is practically useful for accurate fabrication of surgical splint for orthognathic surgery.

Anisotropic elastic constants of Zr-2.5Nb pressure tube materials were determined by a high temperature resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS). The resonant frequencies were measured using alumina wave-guides and wide band ultrasonic transducers in a small furnace. The rectangular parallelepiped specimens were fabricated along with the axial, radial and circumferential direction of the pressure tube. A nine elastic stiffness tensor for orthotropic symmetry was determined in the range of room temperature ${\sim}500^{\circ}C$. As the temperature increases, the elastic constant tensor, cij gradually decreases. Higher elastic constants along the transverse direction compared to those along the axial or radial direction are similar to the case of Young's modulus or shear modulus. A crossing of shear elastic constants along axial direction and radial direction was observed near $150^{\circ}C$. This fact corresponds to the crossing of c44 and c66 of single crystal zirconium.

The dynamic elastic constants of the simulated weld HAZ (heat-affected zone) of SA 508 Class 3 reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel were investigated by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS). The resonance frequencies of rectangular parallelepiped samples woe calculated from the initial estimates of elastic stiffness $c_{11},\;c_{12}\;and\;c_{44}$ with an assumption of isotropic property, dimension and density. Through the comparison of calculated resonant frequencies with the measured resonant frequencies by RUS, very accurate elastic constants of SA 508 Class 3 steel were determined by iteration and convergence processes. Clear differences of Youngs modulus and shear modulus were shown from samples with different thermal cycles and microstructures. Youngs modulus and shear modulus of samples with fine-grained bainite were higher than those with coarse-grained tempered martensite. This tendency was confirmed from other results such as micro-hardness test.

This paper focused on three drawbacks exposed in subject matter related to solid figures in elementary school math textbook. First, general solid figure are introduced before rectangular parallelepiped and cube in fifth grade math textbook, and prism and pyramid in sixth grade math textbook are introduced. Second, the process of abstraction from concrete objects to solid figures is insufficient in sixth grade math textbook. Third, some definitions in subject matter related to solid figures are inconsistent and ambiguous. The following four suggestions can be put forward as a conclusion based on these results. First, subject matter in textbooks must be correspond with that in curriculum. Second, it is necessary to inform teachers of range of subject matter through teachers guide book and manual for curriculum definitely. Third, each grade subject matter in math textbooks must be reexamined. Fourth, regular modification of math textbooks must be possible institutionally.

Light-shelf is one of the most efficient natural lighting systems due to the improved function of the inflow level of the outdoor natural light. However, the existing research on the light shelf limits to the rectangular parallelepiped space, so do not provide sufficient data for various shapes of spaces. Thus, this study aims at deriving proper plan and relationship of the light shelf through its performance assessment depending on the indoor space shapes and utilizing them as basic data of light shelf design. The conclusions are as follows : 1) for 6m space depth, standard intensity of illumination satisfaction depth has shown 8.3%~26.3% improvement through the adjustment of the angle and width when installing light shelf compared to no light shelf installation; 2) $-30^{\circ}$, $-20^{\circ}$ and $-10^{\circ}$ light shelves set by this study play only as a blind regardless of the shape of ceiling on the summer solstice, and it is unsuitable; and 3) this study has derived proper plan of light shelf upon space shapes based on energy reduction and indoor evenness. The study results provide expanded data of the performance assessment of the light shelves according to the different space shapes and light shelf factors, which serves as a basis of the light shelves designing.
