Modal expansion technique (MET) is a method to estimate the vibration fields of flexible structures by using eigenmodes of the structure and the signals of sensors. It is the useful method to estimate the vibration fields but has the truncation error since it only uses the limit number of the eigenmodes in the frequency of interest. Even though block-wise MET performed frequency block by block with different valid eigenmodes was developed, it still has the truncation error due to the absence of other eigenmodes. Thus, this paper suggested an improved block-wise modal expansion technique. The technique recovers the truncation errors in one frequency block by utilizing other eigenmodes existed in the other frequency blocks. It was applied for estimating the vibration fields of a cylindrical shell. The estimated results were compared to the vibration fields of the forced vibration analysis by using two indices: the root mean square error and parallelism between two vectors. These indices showed that the estimated vibration fields of the improved block-wise MET more accurately than those of the established METs. Especially, this method was outstanding for frequencies near the natural frequency of the highest eigenmode of each block. In other words, the suggested technique can estimate vibration fields more accurately by recovering the truncation errors of the established METs.

The control over microstructure in block copolymer thin films using external electric fields has become an interesting research topic. In this article, the effect of nanoparticle on the microdomain alignments in block copolymer (polystyrene-b-poly(2-vinylpyridine)/nanoparticle (Au) thin films under electric fields has been examined with transmission electron microscopy. The homogeneous dispersion of Au nanoparticles into the block copolymer matrix was achieved by surface modification of nanoparticles with compatible ligands. Compared with the phenomenon seen in the pristine block copolymer thin films, a peculiar alignment behavior was observed in the block copolymer/nanoparticle hybrid thin films under electric fields. In addition, the different pathways observed in the pristine and nanoparticle incorporated block copolymer thin films were also monitored as a function of exposure time. This work can provide the fundamental information for understanding microdomain alignment in block copolymer/nanoparticle thin films under external electric fields.

In this study, we measured shielding block correction factors for irregular fields and compared them with published data for the square blocked field. We devised a methods to measure the factors at an arbitrary depth in phantom. The measurements were performed for 12 shielding blocks used in radiation therapy. The measured correction factors for irregular blocked fields were consistent within $\pm$0.5% with those of the square blocked fields. Our results show that the shielding block correction factors for the typical square blocked fields can be used in clinical dose calculations for irregular blocked fields. However, for small fields, we suggest that verification be done by measurement.

In these days, Block Pulse functions are used in a variety of fields such as the analysis and controller design of the systems. In applying the Block Pulse function technique to control and systems science, the integral operation of the Block Pulse series plays important roles. This is because differential equations are always involved in the representations of continuous-time models of dynamic systems, and differential operations are always approximated by the corresponding Block Pulse series through integration operational matrices. In order to apply the Block Pulse function technique to the problems of continuous-time dynamic systems more efficiently, it is necessary to find th...

In this work, profound microscale behaviors of block copolymer and polymer blend under electric field were investigated using microscopic methods and compared systematically. To this end, both the block copolymer and blend containing polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were introduced. The two polymers have a similar dielectric constant. Under an identical experimental condition such as temperature, film thickness, field intensity, and exposure time, the polymer blend responded more sensitively than the block copolymer. The presence of covalent bond suppressed the mobility of constituents in block copolymer. This study will be essential for future research activities regarding behaviors of polymeric materials under external fields.

A 2-frame PTV (particle tracking velocimetry) system using the concept of match probability between two consequent image frames has been developed to obtain instantaneous velocity fields. The overall 2-frame PTV system including image pre-processing, tracking algorithm and post-processing routine was implemented to apply to real flows. The developed 2-frame PTV system has several advantages such as high recovery ratio of velocity vectors, low error ratio and small computational time compared with the conventional 4-frame PTV and the FFT-based cross-correlation PIV technique. The 2-frame PTV system was applied to a turbulent channel flow over a rectangular block to check its reliability and usefulness. Total 96 sequential image frames have been captured and processed to get both mean and fluctuating velocity vector fields over the recirculating region. The mean velocity and turbulent intensity profiles were well agreed with hte LDV measurements in the separated region behind the block. Time-averaged reattachment length is about 6.3 times of the block height.

This paper propose the method of constructing the Digital Logic Systems based on the Improved Automatic Theorem Proving Techniques(IATP) over Finite Fields. The proposed method is as following. First, we discuss the background and the important mathematical properties for Finite Fields. Also, we discuss the concepts of the Automatic Theorem Proving Techniques(ATP) including the syntactic method and semantic method, and discuss the basic properties for the Alf. In this step, we define several definitions of the IAIP, Table Pseudo Function Tab and Equal. Next, we propose the T-gate as Building Block(BB) and describe the mathematical representation for the notation of T-gate. Then we discuss the important properties for the T-gate. Also, we propose the several relationships that are Identity relationship, Constant relationship, Tautology relationship and Mod R cyclic relationship. Then we propose Mod R negation gate and the manipulation of the don't care conditions. Finally, we propose the algorithm for the constructing the method of the digital logic systems over finite fields. The proposed method is more efficiency and regularity than my other earlier methods.
