An oxyge generator, which is applied to a particular space such as automobile, must consider compactness and lightweight as well as problems caused by noise, vibration and heat dissipation. For these matters, a BLDC motor was adopted to reduce heat while a bed using synthetic zeolite NaX made it possible to generate high-density oxygen with relatively small size. Moreover, owing to the characteristic of synthetic zeolite Nax, a two-head vacuum pump was designed to desorb nitrogen without additional pump unit.

Removal of angular deformation induced during the welding of butt joints in thick steel plates needs expert skill and is costly. To reduce deformation, proper joint designs are studied with a prediction of deformation prior to welding. However, as the thickness of a plate increases, a predictive analysis of the welding process is more difficult, especially if there is an increase in the number of welding passes in the joint. In this study, a numerical model with the finite element method (FEM) was developed to analyze the angular deformation in the multi-pass welding of butt joints of plates made of AH32 steel that had a thickness of up to 100 mm. A series of numerical simulations were then performed based on the developed model to predict the deformations for thick plates. With the results obtained by the analyses, this study suggested optimal X-shape grooves for the butt joints of thick plates to minimize the angular deformation. As the thickness of the plate increased to 100 mm, the ratio of the depth of the front-side groove to that of the back-side groove should be gradually increased to nearly 1:3.

The objective of the present study is to evaluate the shear transfer capacity of transverse reinforcement at the concrete interfaces with smooth construction joint. The transverse reinforcing bars were classified into two groups: V-type for the arrangement perpendicular to the interface and X-type for inclined-crossing arrangement. The transverse reinforcement ratio at the interface varied from 0.0045 to 0.0135 for V-type and 0.0064 to 0.0045 for X-type. The mechanism analysis proposed for monolithic concrete interface, derived based on the upper-bound theorem of concrete plasticity, was modified to evaluate the shear friction capacity of concrete interfaces with smooth construction joint. Test results showed that the specimens with X-type reinforcement had lower amount of relative slippage at the interface and higher shear friction capacity than the companion specimens with V-type reinforcement. This observation was independent of the unit weight of concrete. The mean and standard deviation of the ratios between the experimental shear friction strength of smooth construction joints and predictions obtained from the proposed model are 1.07 and 0.14, respectively.

Structural vibrations of adjacent buildings, manufacturing factories and engines on the stationary diesel power plant were increased by the variation of phase angle between two engines sometimes. In this paper, top bracings and synchrophaser have been introduced in order to reduce these vibrations. As a result, all of structural vibrations were greatly improved by the phase adjustment of 6th order X-mode vibration with these.

Tubular joints of jacket structures are usually reinforced using thicker can section, internally ring stiffeners, diaphragm, or externally gusset plates to increase load carry capacity. In this paper, the effect of reinforcement type and geometric parameters of stiffener on the ultimate strength of tubular X-joints subjected to brace compression have been studied numerically Three reinforcement methods were considered; (1)can reinforcement (2)internally ring stiffener (3)internally longitudinal diaphragm. The ANSYS software was used nonlinear strength analysis. It was found that there is significant strength enhancement for reinforced joints.

A finite element analysis study was performed to investigate the behavior and strength of a Plate-Circular Hollow Section joint stiffened with Rib-plate, Since The strength of plate-Circular Section joint is reduced by joint of stress and local plastic deformation which is caused by wall moment, rib plates are attached to the upper and lower Plate-Circular Hollow Section joint for redistribution of stress. The behaviors of joints stiffened with Rib-plate according to shape of rib and reinforcing method, etc are different from those of joints which is not stiffened. However, the criterion of hollow structural section was limited on some parts. Therefore, this study intends to investigate the behavior and structural capacity of Plate-Circular Hollow Section joints stiffened with Rib-plate and compare the Finite element analysis with the Design Equation. Finally, this study proposes the reasonable ultimate strength formula through the comparisons with other design guide.

The divergence connection between steel circular tubes is widely used in such structures as factory facilities, steel circular hollow section truss, and off-shore tower. Steel circular hollow section (SCHS) have close section, and it makes their per-unit production expense higher than open sectioned products like L-shape, H-shape steels, but the sectional resistance of SCHS against vertical compression and torsion is very high. Despite the structural merits of SCHS, however, many engineers dislike to use them in their design because of uncertainty regarding the stress distribution and deformation behavior at their connections. Therefore, this thesis dealt with X-type connections, the most common forms of connection, and studied their load-deformation relationship. It observed how to show the load-deformation relationship at steel circular tube connections according to the diameter-thickness ratio (D/T) of the chord and diameter of branch-diameter of chord ratio (d/D) and suggested prediction yield load using by ring analysis method.

The object of this study was to improve electrophotographic photoreceptor using metal free-phthalocyanine dye sensitized system. In here a various types of metal free-phthalocyanine and polymers and hydrazone were used as charge generation material(CGM) and binder, respectively, and also the hydrazone derivative or zinc complex was used as charge transport material(CTM). It was found that $x-H_2Pc$ showed the highest sensitivity among the ${\alpha}-$, ${\beta}-$ and x- metal free-phthalocyanine($x-H_2Pc$) as CGM. The photoreceptor made by $x-H_2Pc$ and hydrazone derivative as CGM and CTM, respectively, showed the highest ratio of dark decay having 73.1% and the good sensitivity of $1.50lux{\cdot}sec$ compared to other photoreceptors.

The electronic structure of oxygen atom of cation-exchanged zeolite was investigated by utilizing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The obtained $O_{1S}$ spectra of $Na^+-$, $Fe^{2+}-$ and $Fe^{3+}-$ exchanged zeolite X and Y were deconvoluted to demonstrate electronic binding energy of framework oxygens. There were 2-3 bands in each spectrum. The characteristics of separated band have been studied in terms of binding energy and relative area of $O_{1S}$ electron with respect to the exchanged cation. Those bands were assigned to the bridged oxygen in framework (band 1), cation bonded oxygen in cationic site (band 2) and oxygen in water coordinated to the cation (band 3) each other. The band 1 occupying the majority area of $O_{1S}$ spectrum was shifted to higher region on binding energy according to the decrease of Al content in zeolite.

This study investigated the swirling flow fields of a gun-type gas burner (GTGB) without a combustion chamber under cold flow conditions. Three velocity components and the static pressure were measured with a straight-type five-hole pressure probe (GHPP) using a non-nulling calibration method and compared with the results of an X-type hot-wire probe (X-probe) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The GHPP measured the velocity and static pressure for the swirling flow of the central region of the GTGB better than the X-probe but produced slightly worse results than the CFD.
