We carry out a systematic study of Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) using the AKARI Far Infrared Surveyor (FIS) survey data. The AKARI Infrared Astronomical Satellite observed the whole sky using the four FIS bands covering 50 to 180 microns with ~1 arcmin resolution. The all-sky coverage with high-spatial resolution provides an unprecedented opportunity to study diffuse, extended far-infrared (FIR) sources such as SNRs. We have searched for FIR counterparts to all 274 known Galactic SNRs, and investigate their FIR properties of identified SNRs. We report preliminary results of the study.

When we measure the acoustical properties of a room using multiple microphone system, it is important to grasp exact time delay of the early reflections from impulse response pair. But it is often very difficult to identify the early reflections in natural shape, because a waveform may be deformed due to the characteristics of a sound source loudspeaker, microphone and reflected wall and overlapping of plural waveform. In this paper to obtain more accurate and enough early reflections, we propose the brand-new five-channel sound receiving system and introduce peak-detecting algorithm. The system has microphones mounted at the origin and four points of a regular tetrahedron. The newly introduced peak-detecting algorithm can show exact peak position in each channel, in spite of deformation due to reflected walls, loudspeaker and microphone.

In this paper, we present new scheme for image coding which efficiently use the relationship between the properties of spatial image and its wavelet transform. Firstly an original image is decomposed into several layers by the wavelet transform, and simultaneously decomposed into 2$\^$n/ ${\times}$ 2$\^$n/ blocks. Each block is classified into 3 regions according to their property, i.e., low activity region(LAR), midrange activity region(MAR), high activity region(HAR). Secondly we are applied texture modeling technique to LAR, MAR and HAR are encoded by Stack-Run coding technique. Finally our scheme Is superior to the Zerotree method in both reconstructed image Quality and transmitted bit rates.

Aggregate as the component of High Flowing Concrete has much influence on the properties of High Flowing Concrete according to the quality and condition because the aggregate occupy a lot of concrete volume. The shape and size of aggregate affect a lot spatial passibility and fillingability. The segregation is easy to occur when the rate of Fine aggregate is high so that Fluidity is much affected by aggregate factor. In this study, therefore, we try to understand the various fluidity according to the fine aggregate of standard grade rang, the size of Coarse aggregate and the rate of fine aggregate to confirm the manufacturing possibility of High Flowing Concrete by examination on the influence of fresh state of high flowing concrete such as flowability, reinforcement passibility, fillingability, segregation resistance.

Abell 2744 is a giant merging cluster, called the Pandora's Cluster, at the redshift of z=0.308 (corresponding to a distance of 1270 Mpc). Taking the advantage of the deep high resolution images in the Hubble Frontier Field program, we study the properties of compact stellar systems including globular clusters and ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs) as well as dwarf galaxies in this cluster. We find a rich population of globular clusters and UCDs in Abell 2744. The spatial distribution of these objects is consistent with the mass map derived from lensing analysis, while showing a significant offset from the X-ray map of hot gas. The faint end of the luminosity function of the galaxies in the red sequence is fit by a flat slope, showing no faint upturn. We discuss these finding in relation with the origin of UCDs, formation of red sequence dwarf galaxies, and formation of the Pandora's cluster.

Polarization of the light scattered by the lunar surface contains information on the mean particle size of the lunar regolith, which gradually decreases by continued micro-meteoroid impact over a long period and thus is an age indicator of the surface. We performed multi-band (U, B, V, R and I) polarimetric observations toward the whole near side of the Moon at the Lick observatory using a 15-cm reflecting telescope with 1.1km/pixel spatial resolution at the center of the lunar disk. We analyze the color dependence of the polarization properties of the lunar regolith and discuss its implication for the study of lunar swirls.

We report the preliminary results of our GMVA(Global mm VLBI Array) observation at the frequency of 86 GHz. Observation were made in the dual polarization mode (LCP and RCP), to produce the polarimetric maps with the maximum angular resolution which the array is capable of. We aim to link the source-integrated AGN polarization properties with the polarized spatial source structure, by mapping the polarized "fine structure" of the target AGN. We selected 2 targets, 0954+658 and 0716+714, which (1) have been observed multiple times by the PdBI polarimetric monitoring program; (2) have sufficient integrated fluxes ($S_{90GHz}$ > 1 Jy) ; (3) are close enough to resolve the source structure < 1 pc with given angular resolution ; and (4) are located at high northern declination for good UV coverages. As preliminary results, we present LL and RR polarized images of each target with the maximum angular resolution of ${\sim}60{\mu}as$. Extended structures, probably the jet outflows, are discovered in both sources.

Ellerman bombs(EB) are small-scale bright features observed best in the wings of H alpha line. We used the Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph(FISS) with the 1.6m New Solar Telescope at Big Bear Solar Observatory, in order to investigate characteristics of each EB. We analyzed H alpha line profiles of EBs, and classified EBs by their contrast profiles. To analyse characteristics of EBs, we applied power-law fitting ($C={\alpha}{\Delta}{\lambda}^{-n}$) to the EB contrast profiles. The amplitude ${\alpha}$ is a measure of the strength of an EB event (or the amount of released energy), and the power-law index n is a measure of spatial concentration of energy in the higher layers of the solar atmosphere. With the two parameters, we classified EBs into a few groups. We try to understand the physical properties of each group.

In this paper, the coupled model with hydrogen transport and elasto-plasticity behavior is introduced. This model is implemented to the general-purpose FE code, ABAQUS, via the user-defined subroutine UMAT and UMATHT. In UMAT, the spatial gradients of hydrostatic stress and hydrogen induced deformation are calculated, and then are passed into UMATHT. Heat transfer equation within UMATHT is substituted by hydrogen transport equation including the effects of stress states and strain hardening. To validate this model, the finite element analyses coupled with hydrogen transport and mechanical loading are performed for the boundary layer specimens with low and high strength steel properties. The FE results are compared with the previous studies by Taha and Sofronis (2001).

As a part of natural hazard assessment, regional slope stability analysis was conducted using Geoscientific Information System (GIS) in the northern area of Chungju Lake. Selected factors which affect the slope stability in the study area were lithology, soil, density of lineament, groundwater level, dip of slope, aspect of slope, and geological engineering properties. Geological structural domains were determined by collected data of joint orientation from about 200 sites in order to produce a slope instability map. Potential type of failure and its direction could be expected through the domains. And a slope instability map was produced, comparing the representative orientations of the domains with the orientations of the slopes which were made through TIN module in ARC/INFO. Under the consideration of environmental geological characteristics of the study area, rating and weighting of each factor of slope stability analysis were decided and spatial analysis of regional slope stability was couducted through overlaying technique of GIS. The result of areal distribution of slope stability showed that the most unstable area was the area between Mt. Pudae and Mt. Jubong, and the northern area of the railway station, Samtan.
