In these days, the piezoresistive material has been applied to various sensors in order to measure the change of physical quantities. But the relationship between the sensitivity of a sensor and the position and size of piezoresistor has rarely been studied. Therefore, this paper was focused on the effect of residual stress induced in piezoresistor on the distribution of resistance change ratio and supposed the feasible position of piezoresistor. The resulting are following; The tensile residual stress in the vicinity of piezoresistor decreased the value of resistance change ratio and could not effect on all the area of diaphragm but local area around the piezoresistor. Also, the piezoresistor in the diaphragm type pressure sensor with boss should fabricate in the edge of boss in order to increase the sensitivity of pressure sensor.

Dependence of residual compressive stress of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films on relative humidity was investigated. Polymeric, graphitic and diamond-like carbon films were prepared by r.f.-PACVD using methane or benzene with the negative self bias voltage of the substrate ranging from -100 to -800 V. In-situ measurements of the residual stress were carried out in an environment chamber where the relative humidity was varied from 10％ to 90％. In dense DLC film of high residual compressive stress and hardness, we could not observe any change in the residual compressive stress with relative humidity. However, in the cases of graphitic and polymeric DLC films, abrupt change in the residual stress occurred by changing the relative humidity. The quantity of the stress change was inversely proportional to the film thickness, which means that the stress change with humidity is not due to the penetration of the water molecule into the film structure, but due to surface interaction between water molecules and film surface.

The purpose of this study is to find on the Current Change and Residual current in Final closing section of Seamangum the sea dike . The M2 current was calculated in two case of the two and three point Final closing section. The residual currents are calculated diagnositically from the observed water temperature and salinity data and wind data and tidal residual current.

The problem of trend change in the mean residual life is great Interest in the reliability and survival analysis. In this paper, a new test statistic for testing whether or not the mean residual life changes its trend Is developed. It is assumed that neither the change point nor the proportion at which the trend change occurs is known. The asymptotic null distribution of test statistic is established and asymptotic critical values of the asymptotic null distribution is obtained. Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare the proposed test with previously known tests.

We have studied the characteristic changes of optical device using imprint lithography. An imprinted structure is inherently involved in residual stress due to the temperature and the pressure cycle during fabrication process. A structure with residual stress undergoes stress relaxation, which leads io dimensional change. Therefore, annealing processes was performed to reduce the residual stress of imprinted polymer channel. Reduction of residual stress was confirmed through dimensional change, birefringence, and the mechanical properties. We have fabricated an optical device, and it saw the optical intensity changes within 0.1% for 1 month.

The energy release rate associated with crack growth in adhesive double cantilever beam (DCB) specimens, including the effect of residual stresses, was formulated using beam theory. Because of the rotation of the asymmetric arms in the adhesive DCB specimens due to temperature change, it is necessary to correct the evaluated fracture toughness of the DCB specimens, specifically in the case of a large temperature change. This study shows that the difference between the true toughness and an apparent toughness due to the consequence of ignoring residual stresses can be calculated for a given specimen geometry and thermo-mechanical properties (e.g. coefficient of thermal expansion). The calculated difference in the energy release rates based on the present correction method is compared with that from FEM in order to verify the present correction method. The residual stress effects on the evaluation of the adhesive fracture toughness are discussed.

This paper attempted to estimate the emissions of HFC-134a from scrap truck as a result of measuring the residual quantities of HFC-134a in air conditioner of scrap truck. We measured the residual amounts in the scrap truck of 138 by applying commercial recover for refrigerants. The average residual rate(disposal-phase emission factor) is reported to be $44.3{\pm}3.3%$ within a confidence interval of 95%. Recent year model trucks exhibit the higher residual rates. Little variation, however, is observed in regard to vehicle size. The HFC-134a emission quantity from scrap truck in 2011 is estimated to be 55,908 $tCO_2$-eq that demonstrates 21.4% increase to compare with that in 2007. As the numbers of truck have increased dramatically during the last two decades, the emissions of HFC-134a from scrap truck would increase sharply in the next coming years. HFC-134a is a very high GWP greenhouse gas. therefore have to reduce the emissions from the scrap truck and need to find ways to recycle. The chemical compositions of refrigerants from scrap truck are quite similar to those of new refrigerants, suggesting that the refrigerants from scrap truck could be reused as refrigerant.

Residual stress is a dominant obstacle to efficient production and safe usage of products by reducing the mechanical strength and failure properties. Especially, it causes interfacial failure and substrate deflection in the case of thin film. So, the exact evaluation and optimum control of thin film residual stress is indispensable. However, hole drilling or X-ray diffraction techniques have some limits in application to thin film. And, curvature technique for thin film materials cannot give the information about local stress variation. Therefore, we applied the nanoindentation technique in evaluating the thin film residual stress. In this study, we modeled the change of indentation loading curve for residually stressed and stress-free thin films during stress relaxation. The value of residual stress was directly related to the indentation depth change by relaxation. The residual stress from nanoindentation analysis was consistent with the result from curvature technique.

The two cross-roll straightening process at room temperature is a manufacturing method for improving the straightness of a drawn wire. The distribution and magnitude of the internal and surface residual stresses of the drawn wire are changed after the wire-drawing process through the two cross-rolls; this also results in a change in the diameter of the drawn wire. The remaining residual stresses of the drawn wire after the wire-drawing dimensional changes were analyzed according to the distance between the rolls, oblique angle between the axes of the roll and the wire, predicted residual stresses, and dimensional change in the final product. The oblique angle between the concave and convex rolls did not affect the residual stresses or dimensional change, but the distance between rolls did.
