The present study examined the mechanical properties of the friction welding of Ni-Cr-Mo to SM45C. Friction welding was conducted at welding conditions of 2,000 rpm, friction pressure of 100MPa, friction time of 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 seconds, upset pressure of 150MPa, and upset time of 3.0 seconds. When the friction time was 1.6 seconds, the maximum tensile strength of the friction weld happened to be 1,020MPa, which is 120% of the base material's tensile strength(850MPa). At the same condition, the maximum shear strength was 438MPa, which is equivalent to 103% of the base material's shear strength(425MPa). At the same condition, the maximum vickers hardness was Hv490 at Ni-Cr-Mo nearby weld interface, which is higher Hv40 than condition of the friction time 0.8 seconds, and the maximum vickers hardness was Hv305 from weld interface of SM45C, which is higher Hv12 than condition of the friction time 0.8 seconds. The results of microstructure analysis show that the structures of two base materials have fined and rearranged along a column due to heating and axial force during friction, which has affected in raising hardness and tensile strength.

A new digital serrodyne (DS) signal processor for the close-loop fiber optic gyroscope was designed and implemented. It is based on a new algorithm that can solve the remaining problems of the existing digital serrodyne processing by utilizing a new modulation wavefonn. The algorithm was implemented in an FPGA and tested. Theoretical limit and experimental value of the random walk were measured to be 2.6 and 3.3 deg/hr/$\sqrt{Hz}$, respectively. And drift of the processor is smaller than that by Shupe's effect.effect.

Via terahertz (THz) reflection radar, the characterizations of reflected THz electromagnetic pulses are reported. Quasi-optical techniques are used to efficiently reflect pulses of THz electromagnetic radiation from an aluminum mirror and several conducting and nonconducting materials. An incident THz pulse is reflected up to 9 times to know the magnitude change of a reflected pulse from the aluminum mirror. Using this method, aluminum board, undoped silicon, quartz, and LDPE samples' reflection coefficient and index of refraction can be measured. These results suggest a possible application of transient THz reflection spectroscopy without surface contact.ontact.

The effect of side-lobe on axial image is investigated. We show, using computer simulation and experimentally, that an optimized axial response can be achieved by minimized side-lobe according to the Herschel condition and that the appearance of sidelobes is decreased by balancing phase error.

Background: As the cost of fishmeal continues to rise, there will be a need to optimize the diet by minimizing dietary fishmeal inclusion in aquafeed. In this study, a 7-week experiment was conducted to evaluate soybean meal, fermented soybean meal (soytide), and sesame meal as fishmeal replacers in whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Methods: A 30%-based fishmeal diet was considered as control (CON), six other diets were prepared by replacing 20% or 40% of fishmeal with soybean meal (SB₂₀ and SB₄₀), fermented soybean meal (ST₂₀ and ST₄₀), or sesame meal (SM₂₀ and SM₄₀) from the CON diet. Twenty shrimp with average initial weight of 0.65 ± 0.05 g (mean ± SD) were randomly distributed into 21 tanks (45 L) and fed four times a day. Water temperature was controlled at 28 ± 1 ℃ and aeration was provided by air stones. Results: Weight gain, specific growth rate, feed efficiency, and protein efficiency ratio of shrimp fed CON showed no significant differences compared to shrimp fed all the other diets. However, growth performance of shrimp fed ST₂₀ diet was significantly higher than those of shrimp fed the SM₂₀ and SM₄₀ diets (P < 0.05). Superoxide dismutase activity (SOD) of shrimp fed CON, ST₂₀, and ST₄₀ diets was significantly higher than those of shrimp fed the SB₄₀ and SM₄₀ diets. But there were no significant differences among shrimp fed CON, SB₂₀, ST₂₀, ST₄₀, and SM₂₀ diets. Also, lysozyme activity of shrimp fed ST₂₀ diet was significantly higher than those of shrimp fed the SB₄₀ and SM₄₀ diets. Although, lysozyme activity of shrimp fed the CON diet was not significantly different compared to shrimp fed all the other experimental diets. Conclusions: Therefore, SB, ST, and SM could replace 40% of fishmeal based on growth performance and lysozyme. According to the SOD activity, SB and SM could replace 20% of fishmeal and ST could replace 40% of fishmeal in juvenile whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei.

The lumbar multifidus muscle, which can be separated into deep fascicles (DM) and superficial fascicles (SM), is important for lumbar segmental stability. However, no previous studies have investigated the effect of lumbar stabilization exercises on the thickness of DM and SM. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess DM thickness after three different lumbar segmental stabilization exercises. In total, 30 healthy male participants were recruited and randomly assigned to one of three exercise groups: hollowing in the quadruped position (H-Quad), contralateral arm and leg lift (CALL), and bilateral arm and leg lift (BALL). Each lumbar segmental stabilization exercise was conducted over 4 weeks. Ultrasonography was used to compare the DM and SM thickness before and after the 4 weeks of exercise. A mixed-model analysis of variance using Scheffe's post-hoc test was used for statistical analysis. The results showed a significant effect for the measurement time (before vs. after 4 weeks of exercise) in the DM (F=31.26, p<.05) and SM (F=4.56, p<.05). At the end of the 4 weeks, the DM thickness had increased significantly in the H-Quad exercise group, and the SM thickness had increased significantly in the CALL and BALL exercise groups. Also in the BALL exercise group, the SM thickness was greater compared with that in the H-Quad exercise group. These findings suggest that the thickness of the DM and SM were increased by different types of lumbar segmental stability exercise after 4 weeks.

We determined the optical constants and thickness of organic electroluminescence thin films using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry. Using the measured transmittance spectra and the spectroscopic ellipsomeoy data of the organic films on glass substrates in the optically transparent region, we determined the effective thickness and the refractive indices of organic thin films. Then by applying a numerical inversion method to variable angle spectro-ellipsometry data, we determined the complex refractive index at each wavelength including the optically absorbing region, as well as the thickness and surface micro-roughness of the organic thin films. The calculated transmittance spectra showed a tight agreement with the measured ones, confining the validity of the present model analysis.

A wavemeter was realized using the phenomena that the phase lag between principal polarization states in an optical retarder is a function of wavelength. The change in the polarization state of the optical beam as it passes through the optical retarder is dependent on wavelength. The wavelength of the optical beam is determined by comparing the power difference between principal polarization states. A prototype wavemeter was successfully implemented using a polarization maintaining fiber with birefringence $3\times10^{-4}$ and length 100 mm as the optical retarder. The measurement resolution was 0.08 nm over a wavelength region of 1554.38 nm-1557.l9 nm, which agreed well with theoretically calculated results. In addition, the dependence of operating characteristics on temperature was analyzed theoretically and experimentally.mentally.

A wavemeter is realized using the fact that the coupling coefficient of a WDM coupler is a function of wavelength. Prototype devices with 1500 nm/1600 nm and 1510 nm/1550 nm WDM couplers are successfully fabricated and tested in the laboratory. The measurement resolutions are $\pm$0.27 nm over a wavelength range of 1515 nm~1576 nm for the device with 1500 nm/1600 nm WDM coupler and $\pm$0.103 nm over a wavelength range of 1520 nm~1543 nm for th4e device with 1510 nm/1550 nm WDM coupler. The dependence of operating characteristics on the input signal power is insignificant. However the temperature dependence is ~0.06 nm/$^{\circ}C$.

The effect of decorrelation on the coincidence is investigated with correlated photons produced by parametric down-conversion process. The degree of correlation between photon pairs is adjusted by changing the polarization dependent transmissivities of thin glass plate\ulcorner in front of two detectors. It was found that the single counts of each detectors are proportional to the transmissivity and the coincidence is proportional to the product of transmissivities of the glasses in front of two detectors.
