In dismantling factories for recycling, it is important to input actual working data to a personal computer (PC) in order to monitor the work results and related recycling rate of the inputs. This should be performed with a keyboard, a mouse, or other devices. But when a worker is working in the factory, it could be bothersome or time consuming to go to the PC. Especially, workers who works at dismantling factories have a generally low education level are scared to use a PC, which could be used as a pretext for not using the PC. In some cases, data input is performed by a worker after the day's job. In this case, it could take additional time, the worker can make more mistakes, and the data could be unreliable. In this study, we developed a man-machine interface (MMI) device using a safety helmet. A joystick-like device, pushbuttons, and a radio frequency (RF) device for wireless communication is equipped in a safety helmet. This MMI device has functions similar to a PC mouse, and it has a long communication distance. RF is used because it consumes less battery power than Bluetooth. With this MMI device, workers need not go to a PC to input data or to control the PC, and they can control the PC from a long distance. The efficiency of PCs in a factory could be increased by using the developed MMI system, and workers at the dismantling factories could have less reluctance in using the PC.

Chromium oxide thin films have been deposited on silicon substrates using a tabletop 9kJ mathertyped plasma focus (PF) device. Before deposition, pinch behavior with gas pressure was observed. Strength of pinches was increased with increasing working pressure. Deposition was performed at room temperature as a function of working pressure between 50 and 1000 mTorr. Composition and surface morphology of the films were analyzed by Auger Electron Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscope, respectively. Growth rates of the films were decreased with pressure. The oxide films were polycrystalline containing some impurities, Cu, Fe, C and revealed finer grain structure at lower pressure.

Recently, Stirling engines are emerging as a key device for power conversion of renewable energy or waste energy. This study develops a LTDSE(Low Temperature Differential Stirling Engine) using a water spray for higher heat transfer and performs load performance tests for various flow rates and temperatures of hot water spray for variable engine loads emulated by a mechanical friction device. Internal temperature and pressure, working frequency and inlet and outlet temperature of the supply water are measured. As a result, the increases in flow rate and temperature of hot water respectively enhance the power output, efficiency and the working frequency, while the increasing engine load leads to decreases in working frequency but increases in the pressure amplitude. Eventually, it is revealed there exists a maximum shaft power of the test engine.

A " plucking rolls device" was developed in this study to improve the quality of harvested tea leaves. In this report, the outline of the system and the results of performance experiments in our laboratory are discussed. Tow kinds of performance experiments were carried out. The first experiment checked harvesting accuracy by using a plucking unit that was developed for harvesting machine installation. The second experiment was a harvesting experiment which utilized a fron bar in order to prevent cutting of the tea buds which had been a problem in precious experiments . As a results of the first experiments , it was confirmed that selective harvesting obtained high quality tea leaves. but a cutting problem that, when the harvesting seed was faster than the working speed, which was non-selective harvesting , was also seen. In the second experiment, the cutting rate decreased to a maximum of 50% level, when tea buds most bent ahead by the front bar. The effect was seen that cutt ng problem was alleviated from this.

This study was conducted an experiment for the thermal flow mechanism of the surrounding butane gas can and pressure change in butane can with oversized cookware. And numerical analysis was performed to analyze the process of heat transfer around butane can. Effect of radiant heat from small size cookware is very small. Thus small size cookware does not have a significant impact on the butane gas range safety. But radiant heat of oversized cookware is larger than small size cookware. Therefore it gives an adverse effect on the butane can. And when internal pressure of butane can is greater than about 406.8~447.2 kPa, a safety device of portable butane gas range were working. The causes of safety device working is because of trivet height. Trivet height is lowered, the radiant heat is increased. This radiant heat is to raise pressure of inside butane can. Experimental and numerical analysis results, the lower thermal conductivity of the cookware is greater the effects of radiant heat.

BAlq was fabricated as for hole blocking layer in the OLED devices to investigate its electrical and optical characteristics. Device structure was ITO/$\alpha$ -NPD/EML/BAlq/Alq3/Al:Li using TYG-201, DPVBi (4, 4 - Bis (2, 2 - diphenylethen-1 - yls) - Biphenyl), Alq and DCJTB (4-(dicyanomethylene)-2- (1-propyls)6-methy 4H-pyrans) as green emitting material, blue emitting material, host material for red emission and red emitting guest material respectively. The OLED device showed optimum working voltage and electron density at 600 cd/$m^2$ when thickness of BAlq is 25$\AA$ for RGB OLED devices while their efficiencies are better at 50$\AA$ of BAlq. Red and blue color OLEDs also fabricated using 30$\AA$ thickness of BAlq and compared with those without BAlq layer. BAlq was more effective in electrical properties such as working voltage, current density and efficiency of red OLED than blue and green ones. This study describes that 30$\AA$ is optimum thickness of BAlq for best performance of full color OLED devices when using BAlq as a hole blocking material.

In this study, V-notch part has been considered as one of safety components in rectangular cup used for mobile device. This kind of safety component in rectangular cup with the V-notch part, which controls adequately the increased internal pressure in the rectangular cup, plays an important role to prevent the explosion from the excessive internal pressure. The protecting mechanism on the mobile device against the explosion is that a series of fracture on the V-notch part at the critical internal pressure level occurs. Therefore, it is very crucial to estimate accurately the working pressure range of the safety device. Relationship between the working internal pressure and fracture phenomenon at V-Notch part was investigated through numerical analysis using ductile fracture criteria. Integral value, I, of the used ductile fracture criteria was calculated from effective stress and strain, and then the bursting pressure of the V-notch part was extracted. Comparisons between the estimated and experimental results show that this systematic approach to predict bursting pressure using the ductile fracture criteria gives fairly good agreements.

With the rapid development of DC high voltage accelerator, higher requirements have been raised for the design of DC high voltage power supply, requiring more stable high voltage with lower output ripple. Therefore, it also puts forward higher requirements for the parameter design of the voltage doubling rectifier circuit, which is the core component of the DC high voltage power supply. In order to obtain output voltage with better performance, the effects of the working frequency, the stage capacitance and the load resistance on the output voltage of the voltage doubling rectifier circuit are studied in detail by simulation. It can be concluded that the higher the working frequency of the transformer, the larger the stage capacitance, the larger the load resistance and the better the output voltage performance in a certain range. Based on this, a 2.5 MV voltage doubling rectifier circuit driven by a 120 kHz frequency transformer is designed, developed and tested for the power supply of the neutron source device towards BNCT. Experimental results show that this voltage doubling rectifier circuit can satisfy the design requirements, laying a certain foundation for the engineering design of DC high voltage power supply of neutron source device.
