It is difficult to apply a conventional selection guide for diffusers when the diffuser is installed in a perimeter zone, because the air diffusion performance index (ADPI) vs. throw/length (T/L) ratio curve listed in conventional guide does not consider the perimetric heating load through the walls. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the perimetric heating load on the ADPI and propose a selection guide for a proper line diffuser when perimetric heating load exists. The velocity and temperature distributions and the ADPI values are obtained numerically with various heat load ratios and air flow rates. The velocity and temperature distributions and the ADPI values are analyzed by CFD in case of various heat load ratios and air flow rates. Also, ADPI was calculated by those results. The ADPI values by numerical results are compared with an existing experimental data to verify the method for the evaluation of ADPI proposed in a present study. In case of a line diffuser installed at the high side wall, the ADPI decreases according to the increases of the flow rate on every heat load ratio of the present study except 0.75. The ADPI vs. T/L ratio curves have been proposed for the heat load ratios of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 to guarantee the comport thermal environment when diffusers are installed in perimeter zone.

We apply a non-equilibrium ionization (NEI) model to a supra-arcade plasma sheet, shocked plasma, and current sheet. The model assumes that the plasma is initially in ionization equilibrium at low temperature, and it is heated rapidly by a shock or magnetic reconnection. The model presents the temperature and characteristic timescale responses of the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board Solar Dynamic Observatory and X-ray Telescope (XRT) on board Hinode. We compare the model ratios of the responses between different passbands with the observed ratios of a supra-arcade plasma sheet on 2012 January 27. We find that most of observations are able to be described by using a combination of temperatures in equilibrium and the plasma closer to the arcade may be close to equilibrium ionization. We also utilize the set of responses to estimate the temperature and density for shocked plasma associated with a coronal mass ejection on 2010 June 13. The temperature, density, and the line of sight depth ranges we obtain are in reasonable agreement with previous works. However, a detailed model of the spherical shock is needed to fit the observations. We also compare the model ratios with the observations of a current sheet feature on 2017 September 10. The long extended current sheet above the solar limb makes it easy to analyze the sheet without background corona. We find that the sheet feature is far from equilibrium ionization while the background plasma is close to equilibrium. We discuss our results with the previous studies assuming equilibrium ionization.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of preserved jams prepared by mixing various ratios of aronia and sugar. To analyze the quality characteristics, the total sugar, pH, moisture, maximum stress, hardness, total phenolics, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), trolox-equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), and sensory characteristics of the preserved jams were measured. Lower aronia contents resulted in higher total sugar content, hardness, and strength, as well as lower moisture, total phenolic content, and DPPH, TEAC, FRAP, and ORAC values. In terms of the sensory characteristics, an aronia content of 30%, which was determined to have strong sweetness and texture, resulted in the lowest overall acceptability. In contrast, the highest preference was shown to an aronia content of 40%. In this study, quality characteristics and antioxidant activity experiments were conducted based on various ratios of aronia and sugar. The results are expected to be used as preliminary data for developing products that use domestic aronia.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the effects of various ratios of sesame oil to shortening on the characteristics and stability of lipids in Yackwa. The sesame oil to shortening ratios assessed herein were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, and 1:100. The lipid contents of Yackwa prepared with various shortening ratios ranged from 25.20 to 29.12%. The lipids in these Yackwa consisted primarily of the frying oil (soybean oil), and the oil contents were measured between 84-90%. The fatty acid compositions of the lipids in the Yackwa were unrelated to the ratio of shortening. The fatty acid compositions were as follows: linoleic acid 49.1-51.27%, oleic acid 26.05-26.77%, palmitic acid 10.07-11.71%, linolenic acid 5.51-5.72% and stearic acid 4.51-4.68%. These compositions were similar to that of soybean oil, which was the frying oil used to prepare the Yackwa. The acid value, peroxide value, and carbonyl value of the lipids in Yackwa did not differ with the various shortening ratios used during the storage time. Stability of lipids in Yackwa were mainly effected by frying oil. Our results suggest that shortening should prove useful as a substitute for sesame oil in the preparation of Yackwa.

Practially useful method of steel fiber for construction work is presented in this study. The most important purpose of this study is to develop a model which can predict mechanical behavior of the structure according to aspect ratio and volume fraction of steel fiber. Experiments on compressive strength, elastic modulus, and splitting strength were performed with self-made cylindrical specimens of variable aspect ratios and volume fractions. The experiment showed that compressive strength was not in direct proportion to volume fraction which doesn't seem to have great influence over compressive strength. However, splitting strength showed almost direct proportion to aspect ratio and volume fraction. Improvement of optimal efficiency was confirmed when the aspect ratio was 70. Experiments on flexural strength, fracture energy, and characteristic length were carried out with self-manufactured beams with notch. As a result, increases of flexural strength, fracture energy, and characteristic length according to increase of volume fraction tend to be prominent when aspect ratio is 70. The steel fiber improves concrete to be more ductile and tough. Moreover, regression analysis was the performed and predictable model was developed after determining variables. With comparison and analysis of suggested estimated values and measured data, reliance of the model was verified.

An experimental study was performed to investigate the effects of partially premixing, varying the equivalence ratios from $1.36{\sim}{\infty}$, and swirlers with swirl numbers of 0, 0.28, 0.64, and 1.32, on the characteristic of radical ($OH^{\ast}$, $CH^{\ast}$, and $C_2^{\ast}$) and pollutant emission in partially premixed swirling flames. The signal from the electronically excited state of $OH^{\ast}$, $CH^{\ast}$, and $C_2^{\ast}$ was detected through a band pass filter with a photo multiplier tube, and flow fields images were detected through a schlieren system. The results demonstrated that the flame height decreases and jet spreading angle increase with increasing a swirl number. The more momentum ratio and swirl number increase, the more decrease flame height, and the generation of sooting flame is promoted.

The diluted PMMA treated $SiO_2$ films as an passivation materials for semiconductor devices was researched by using the FTIR spectra. The diluted PMMA solution with various ratios changed the surface of $SiO_2$ film as the hydrophilic, hydrophobic or hybrid type properties. The sample 7 with little carbon content showed dramatically the chemical variation by the FTIR spectra analysis. Beacuse the little carbon with electrons decreased the polarity and surface energy on the $SiO_2$ film, and then became a stable bonding structure and decreased the leakage current. The FTIR spectra can define the detail variation due to the chemical reaction on the organic thin film, and help to research the characteristic of the organic materials.

In order to avoid collapse of bridges in earthquakes bridge piers are generally designed to attain sufficient ductility. This full-ductility design method has merits for securing the seismic safety readily against strong earthquakes but, it has weakness of high cost design because of excessive safety margin. Recently, in many countries with high seismic technologies, the seismic design concept tends to shift from the collapse prevention design to the performance-based one which requires different performance (damage) levels according to the structural importance. In order to establish this performance-based design method the displacement ductility of confined concrete members should be evaluated quantitatively. And the stress-strain model of confined concrete is indispensible in evaluating displacement ductility. In this study, 6 test groups with different lateral reinforcement ratios were prepared. 10 same specimens with circular section for each group were tested to obtain more reliable test results. The characteristic values necessary for composing the stress-strain model were obtained from experiments. Based on these characteristic values the new stress-strain model modifying the Hoshikuma's one has been proposed.

This research was designed to compare the subjective evaluation of texture image and preference according to fiber blending ratio of men's suit fabrics. 110 subjects evaluated the texture image and preference of various fabrics. For statistical analysis, factor analysis, MDS, pearson correlation and ANOVA were used. The results were as follows: Sensory image factors of suit fabrics were 'smoothness', 'bulkiness', 'stiffness', 'elasticity', 'moistness' and 'weight sensation'. Sensibility image factors were 'classic', 'practical', 'characteristic' and 'sophisticated'. 'Bulkiness' and 'elasticity' sensory images showed high correlations with sensibility images. Fabrics with high wool blending ratio showed as 'classic' and 'sophisticated', 'bulkiness' and 'elasticity' texture images and fabrics with low wool blending ratio showed texture images of 'characteristic', 'surface character', 'stiffness', 'moistness' and 'weight sensation'. Wool fiber blending ratio affected on the purchase preference and tactile preference. Using regression analysis, it was shown that sensibility images had more of an effect on preference than sensory images. The thickness and pattern type showed positive effects and fiber blending ratio showed negative effects on the preference.

It is a recent trend for advanced ships and submarines to incorporate composite structures with viscoelastically damping material. Much research has been done on curve-fitting techniquesto identify vibration characteristic parameters such as natural frequencies, modal damping ratios, and mode shapes of the composite structure. In this study, an advanced technique for accurately determining vibration characteristic of a circular cylindrical shell-attached viscoelastically damping material is used, based on a multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) curve-fitting method. First, an initial value is obtained by using a linear least square method. Next, using the initial value, the exact modal parameters of the composite circular cylindrical shell are obtained by using a nonlinear least square method. Results show computation time is greatly decreased and accurate results are obtained by the MDOF curve-fitting method.
