In this paper, we have investigated the disc warping in high-speed slim-type optical disc drive. The track density as well as high rotational speed of the information storage devices must be increased to enhance their recording capacity and data transfer rate. Generally, ODD used in the Lap-top computer has small inner space. So, the flow instability of the inner space is increased rapidly with its rotational speed. In extreme case, the flow instability may cause the malfunction of the read/write pick-up of drives. The experiments and numerical analysis were carried out for several cases and the result shows the influence of airflow to the disc warping.

Flying Saucer(flying disk type UFO) is a rotating disk that flies through the air. Thus, the aerodynamical features of the Flying Saucer can be estimated by taking a close look on the aerodynamics of the rotating disk. In the present paper, the aerodynamics of the rotating disk are reviewed focusing on the their application to the possibility of the UFO type VTOL aircraft. Finally, a combination of Avro Aircraft and Frisbee concepts is suggested as a possible new UFO type VTOL aircraft.

The spinning machine has been developed for a bus and truck wheel disc which is manufactured by spinning process method. This machine has the mechanical structure with bed, 2-column, cross head, 2-vertical slide, 2-horizontal slide with forming roller, clamp slide and main spindle similar to large size vertical lathe. Main spindle attached the mandrel is rotated about 500rpm drived by 280kW power DC motor, and a rotating black material pressed on the mandrel with the clamp slide is spinformed by 2-forming rollers which are attached inner end of the 2-horizontal slides. The 2-vertical and 2-horizontal slides are actuated by the hydraulic cylinder which is controlled by the servo valve individially, and these servo valves are controlled by control signal of the CNC controller which is computed with position signal feedbacked from the encoder sensor. The developed machine can manufacture wheel disc of various section profile without mandrel change because section profile is easily modified using program editing in the CNC controller processor. The wheel disc manufactured by spinning process method has many advantages that the endurance is increased by 2 times and the weight is decreased by 30% compared with a conventional disc.

The wastewater treatment by photocatalyst decomposes pollutants directly in water, and it is easy to decompose indecomposable organics and inorganic. and Especially, it has an advantage that there is no secondary production of pollutants. However, there will be many problems which are generated depending on the type of photocatalyst. The type of rotating photocatalyst minimizes previous problems, and advanced oxidation processes is possible by the application of rotating disc method. The consideration of the characteristics about various designs and operation factors is needed for the application of rotating photocatalyst system. In this study, rotating photocatalyst was manufactured for rotating disc method by fixing of $TiO_2$. The operation factors were derived for the wastewater treatment by the reaction of rotating photocatalyst. The contained quantity of $TiO_2$ was limited about 70%. The more the contained quantity of $TiO_2$ was increased, the more the treatment rate was continually increased. The optimum rotating photocatalyst was R4, and the contained quantity of $TiO_2$ was 36.8%. The more the exposed amount of UV is increased, the more the decomposition effect of TCODcr was continually increased. However, the adequate strength of light source must be determined by the consideration of economical efficiency. The more the speed of rotating photocatalyst is increased, the more treatment efficiency was increased. When UV lamp was not submerged in reactor, the wastewater treatment was efficient in the order of the depth of water 50%, 30%, 10%, 70%, 100%. This study is a basic research for the development of a system which treats organics in solar light.

Spinning is one of the incremental forming process by the rotating mandrel and forming roller, and has been applied to manufacturing the wheel disc of automobile to simplify the manufacturing process and to improve the mechanical properties of product. In the proesent study the process variables have been extracted and considered to decide the specification of the spinning machine. The maximum values of working load and power have been evaluated and the blank size has been disigned. The shape and dimensionof forming roller have been designed and the process condition such a s rotational velocity of mandrel and the feedrate of roller have been decided.

Various types of oil response equipments and oil recovery vessels are being developed in Korea from the 1990s to respond nil spill accidents. It should be considered prior to the selection of the oil skimmers to make the oil recovery system more efficient at early stage of oil spill accidents. Rotating baldes of vortex skimmer beneath the water surface concentrate oil and draw it into the weir, where it flows to a collection sump. In this study a recently developed Vortex-Disc skimmer(model : VDS-50) is introduced and the performance test results for the skimmer are discussed.

Excessive vibration magnitude results in serious damage and economic losses in the turbine and generator system. Therefore, it is of importance to evaluate the accurate dynamic characteristics of the system in advance. In this paper, rotordynamic characteristics of both the shrunk-fit disc and welded drum rotors have been investigated to ensure an excellent running behavior of the system in which low-pressure(LP) turbines of a nuclear power plant were retrofitted to improve thermal efficiency and reliability. Analysis shows that the welded drum rotor has good torsional characteristics rather than the shrunk-fit disc rotor. In addition, verification testing of field test was performed to confirm the retrofit. Test results are good agreement with analysis ones.

Hot-wire measurements are reported on the developing turbulent flows subject to plane rate of strain in a rotating $90^{\circ}$ dog bend. The cross-section of the bend varies from $100mm{\times}50mm$ rectangular shape at the bend inlet gradually to the $50mm{\times}100mm$ shape at the bend outlet with remaining a constant area. Data signals from the rotating test section are transmitted through a slip ring to the personal computer which is located at the outside of the rotating disc. 3-dimensional velocity and 6 Reynolds stress components were calculated from the equations which correlate the fluctuating and mean voltage values measured with rotating a slant type hot-wire into 6 orientations. The effects of Coriolis and centrifugal forces on the mean motions and turbulence structures are investigated with respect to rotational speed.

An experimental study of mass transfer to an amalgamated copper rotating disc electrode has been employed to determine an empirical correlation for the mass transfer rate in laminar flow. The study was performed in a three-electrodes configuration using 0.1 M boric acid and 0.1M potassium chloride as supporting electrolyte with Zn (II) concentration in the range (25-100 mg $dm^{-3}$). Polarization curves at different zinc ion concentration are reported. Hydrogen and oxygen reduction has also been considered.The diffusion coefficients and mass transfer coefficient were obtained using limiting diffusion current technique based on zinc ion reduction. A least squares analysis indicates that the laminar flow results for 13067 < Re > 57552 and 550 < Sc > 1390 can be correlated by the following equation with correlation coefficient (CR) equal to 0.98: $sh=0.61Re^{0.5}Sc^{1/3}$.
