In this study, we perform a statistical investigation on the kinematic classication of 4264 coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from 1996 to 2015 observed by SOHO/LASCO C3. Using the constant acceleration model, we classify these CMEs into three groups; deceleration, constant velocity, and acceleration motion. For this, we devise four dierent classication methods by acceleration, fractional speed variation, height contribution, and visual inspection. Our major results are as follows. First, the fractions of three groups depend on the method used. Second, about half of the events belong to the groups of acceleration and deceleration. Third, the fractions of three motion groups as a function of CME speed classied by the last three methods are consistent with one another. Fourth, according to the last three methods, the fraction of acceleration motion decreases as CME speed increases, while the fractions of other motions increase with speed. In addition, the acceleration motions are dominant in low speed CMEs whereas the constant velocity motions are dominant in high speed CMEs.

With the Korean VLBI Network (KVN), both single dish and VLBI monitoring observations of H2O and SiO masers were performed toward the semi-regular variable star R Crateris. In the case of 11 VLBI monitoring observations from Jan. 5, 2014 to Jan. 7, 2016, successful superposed maps of H2O and SiO masers were obtained at 7 epochs by adopting the Source Frequency Phase Referencing (SFPR) method. These results enable us to investigate the development of outflow and asymmetric motions from SiO maser to H2O maser regions according to stellar pulsation which are closely related with a mass-loss process. Single dish monitoring observations of H2O and SiO masers were also carried out from 2009 June to 2016 Feb. Intensity variations between H2O and SiO masers were investigated according to stellar optical phases together with peak velocity variations with respect to the stellar velocity. We will compare the VLBI results among different maser transitions with those of single dish.

We report our discovery of observational evidence for the coherence between galaxy rotation and the average motion of neighbors. Using the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) survey data analyzed with the Python CALIFA STARLIGHT Synthesis Organizer (PyCASSO) platform, and the NASA-Sloan Atlas (NSA) catalog, we estimate the angular momentum vectors of 445 CALIFA galaxies and build composite maps of their neighbor galaxies on the parameter space of velocity versus distance. The composite radial profiles of the luminosity-weighted mean velocity of neighbors show striking evidence for dynamical coherence between the rotational direction of the CALIFA galaxies and the average moving direction of their neighbor galaxies. The signal of such dynamical coherence is significant for the neighbors within 800 kpc distance from the CALIFA galaxies with a confidence level of $3.5{\sigma}$, when the angular momentum is measured at the outskirt ($Re<R{\leq}2Re$) of each CALIFA galaxy. We also find that faint or kinematically misaligned galaxies show stronger coherence with neighbor motions than bright or kinematically well-aligned galaxies do. Our results show that the rotation of a galaxy, particularly at its outskirt, may be significantly influenced by recent interactions with its neighbors.

The intent of this paper is to investigate the propagation of Love waves in a dry sandy medium sandwiched between fiber-reinforced layer and prestressed porous half-space. Separate displacement components have been deduced in order to characterize the dynamics of individual materials. Using suitable boundary conditions, the frequency equation has been derived by means of separation of variables which reveals the significant role of reinforcement parameters, sandiness, thickness of layers, porosity and prestress on the wave propagation. The phase velocity of the Love wave has been discussed in accordance with its typical cases. In both cases when fiber-reinforced and dry sandy media are absent, the derived equation of Love type wave coincides with the classical Love wave equation. Numerical computations have been performed in order to graphically illustrate the dependencies of different parameters on phase velocity of Love waves. It is observed that the phase velocity decreases with the increase of parameters pertaining to reinforcement and prestress. The results have certain potential applications in earthquake seismology and civil engineering.

This paper presents a method to improve lateral stability of a four-seat canard aircraft, Velocity-173. Longitudinal stability of Velocity-173 is rather good, but lateral stability is relatively poor. A small panel which increases the area of vertical tail is designed and manufactured. In a design process, AAA(Advanced Aircraft Analysis) is used to predict the change in stability. Flight test is performed to validate the effect of a small panel attached under the vertical panel. Maximum likelihood estimation method is used to extract lateral controllability / stability derivatives from flight test data. This work validates the effect of a small panel attached under the vertical tail.

On this paper study is concentrated on the breakup and atomization characteristics of spray formed by impinging jet injectors(like-doublet) used in liquid rocket engine(LRE). On the process of breakup and atomization, injection velocity and ambient gas pressure are the main parameters, so that these are used as variables that specify the experimental condition. Injection velocity varied from 3m/s to 30m/s and ambient gas pressure changed from 0.1MPa to 4.0MPa with nitrogen gas. As results, measured physical quantities decreased with increasing injection velocity and ambient gas pressure. But the decreasing ratios are different from those of the theory.

The Cosmic Mach number M is the ratio of the bulk flow velocity of the galaxrvelocity field on some scale R to the unall scale velocity dispersion within refcions of scale R. Because M is the ratio of two velocities, it is inn-dimansionat and the Here, independent of the amplitude of the power specHim and of the biasplnmeter in the linear theory. We have measured the Mach rnlmber for two observational samples: a spiral galaxy sample(AHM) of Aaronson and hiscoBlaborators with absolute distances measured by the infrared Ttillr-Fisher relatioa and an elliptical galaxy sample(EGALS) of Faber or 0, with distances determined by the relation. The effective depths distances of galaxies from the Local Group of these samples are 1639 km/s and 2862 e/s, respectivelr. The Machnumbers from these observed peculiar velocity Selds He fund as M=0.95 for AHMand M=0.59 for EGALS. We comPBre these calculated Mach numbers with thosefrom meck surweys drawn fuom three cosnulogical medels: the stand8rd biased nh=0.5 CDM modet an open CDM rrudel with gh=0.2, and a medd with thepower-law power specelm P(k)-k-1 and n=1. The Mach rnlmber test can give robust constraints on these cosmelogical nudels whose power spectra have very different shapes at large scales.

In order to investigate change of vortex structures and its evolving proceses, two dimensional LDV system was used for measurement of velocity vectors of tip vortex, and PIV system was also used for visualizations of tip vortex array for two bladed rotor, respectively. Experiments provided vortex locations, tangential and axial velocity components of tip vortex at six wake ages of 9.5, 10.5, 60.5, 99.5, 129.5, 169.5 and corresponded six wake ages shifted with 180 degrees per each. It was resulted that tip vortices generated by the first blade satisfy Landgrebe's model for their vortex locations even after they were accelerated by the second blade in downstream. Tangential velocity components of tip vortices follow Vatistas' n=2 model on both inside and outside regions of rotor slipstream without loss of vortex circulation. Axial velocity profiles revealed that there were small but significant perturbations just outside the primary vortex core which implies the second blade affects the wake substantially. It was also found that tip paths of each blade were not willing to be coincided intrinsically.

In order to design a shear coaxial injector of solid particles with water, basic experiments on a particle laden jet are necessary. The purpose of the present study is to understand the effect of particle loading ratio on the particle spray characteristics (i.e. spreading angle, distribution of particle number density, velocity profiles, and particle developing region length). Hydro-reactive Al2O3 particles with a primary particle diameter of 35~50 ${\mu}m$ are used in this experiment. An automated particle feeder was designed to supply constant particle mass flowrates. Air is used as the carrier gas. To determine the air velocity at the orifice exit, tracers (aluminum oxide, 0.5~2 ${\mu}m$ primary diameter) are also supplied by a tracer feeder. A plain orifice type injector with 3 mm diameter, and 20 mm length was adopted. Particle image velocimetry is used to measure the mean and fluctuating velocity components along the axial and radial directions.
