We introduce the notion of pre-convergence of p-stacks and characterize the pre-interior, pre-closure, separation axioms and pre-continuity on a topological space by using pre-convergence of p-stacks. We also introduce the notion of p-precompactness and investigate its properties in terms of pre-convergence of p-stacks.

In this work, we studied the effects of electrochemical oxidation treatments of carbon fibers (CFs) on interfacial adhesion between CF and epoxy resin with various current densities. The surface morphologies and properties of the CFs before and after electrochemical-oxidation-treatment were characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and single-fiber contact angle. The mechanical interfacial shear strength of the CFs/epoxy matrix composites was investigated by using a micro-bond method. From the results, electrochemical oxidation treatment introduced oxygen functional groups and increased roughness on the fiber surface. The mechanical interfacial adhesion strength also showed higher values than that of an untreated CF-reinforced composite.

In this paper, a new target pointing guidance algorithm is proposed by combining the optimal target pointing solution and a simple time-to-Go estimator. Also investigated are some properties of the guidance algorithm which include a relation to conventional PNG, convergence region and convergence trajectories of error states according to the time-to-go estimator gain. Some guidelines for designing the pointing guidance law are commented based on the convergence properties. A design example in the case of large initial heading errors is presented and its performance is investigated by simulation.

ZnO nanofibers were electro-spun from a solution containing poly 4-vinyl phenol and Zn acetate dihydrate. The calcination process of the ZnO/PVP composite nanofibers brought forth a random network of polycrystalline wurtzite ZnO nanofibers of 30 nm to 70 nm in diameter. The electrical properties of the ZnO nanofibers were governed by the grain boundaries. To investigate possible applications of the ZnO nanofibers, their CO and $NO_2$ gas sensing responses are demonstrated. In particular, the $SnO_2$-deposited ZnO nanofibers exhibit a remarkable gas sensing response to $NO_2$ gas as low as 400 ppb. Oxide nanofibers emerge as a new proposition for oxide-based gas sensors.

An algorithm for MMADF(modified multiplication-free adaptive filter) which need not to multiplication arithmatic operation is proposed to improve the performance of FSE (fractionally spaced equalizer) which reduce the ISI(intersymbol interference) in signal transfer channel. The input signals are quantized using DPCM and the reference signals is processed using a first-order linear prediction filter. The convergence properties of Sign. MADF and M-MADF algorithm for updating of the coefficients of a FIR digital filter of the fractionally spaced equalizer (FSE) are investigated and compared with one another. The convergence properties are characterized by the steady state error and the convergence speed. It is shown that the convergence speed of M-MADF is almost same as Sign algorithm and is faster than MADF in the condition of same steady state error. Especially it is very useful for high correlated signals.

The convergence properties of Burg algorithm, which is commonly used to calculate the reflection coefficients in the adaptive lattice filters, are studied in this paper. Applying the $\mu$ algorithm to Burg algorithm, a new adaptive lattice $\mu$ algorithm is derived and it shows that the convergence speed of this algorithm is higher than that of Burg algorithm. As a result of theoretical analysis and computer simulation, it is proved that the con-vergence speed of the proposed algorithm is remarkably higher than that of Burg algorithm when the convergence speed of Burg alsorithm is low.

The influence of reinforcing UHMWPE powder on the tribological and mechanical properties of HDPE was investigated. The circularizing of UHMWPE powder was improved by high-speed rotation to enhance particle distribution and flowability. HDPE composites reinforced with UHMWPE powder in the range of 0-50 wt% were prepared by co-rotating twin screw extrusion. The abrasion resistance, plane friction coefficient, tensile strengths, and impact strengths of the composites were investigated as a function of the UHMWPE content. An increasing UHMWPE content decreased the plane friction coefficient and increased the abrasion resistance and impact strength. It is expected that HDPE composites reinforced with spherical UHMWPE powder particles can be used to improve the durability of products such as pipes in the future.

In this article, we show that the family of all 𝓘^𝒦-open subsets in a topological space forms a topology if 𝒦 is a maximal ideal. We introduce the notion of 𝓘^𝒦-covering map and investigate some basic properties. The notion of quotient map is studied in the context of 𝓘^𝒦-convergence and the relationship between 𝓘^𝒦-continuity and 𝓘^𝒦-quotient map is established. We show that for a maximal ideal 𝒦, the properties of continuity and preserving 𝓘^𝒦-convergence of a function defined on X coincide if and only if X is an 𝓘^𝒦-sequential space.

Infrared transparent ZnS ceramics were synthesized through hydrothermal synthesis ($180^{\circ}C$, 70 h) and sintered using a hot press process at $750^{\circ}C-1000^{\circ}C$. We carried out x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy to confirm the optical properties of the ZnS ceramics after sintering at various temperatures. The phase of ZnS nanopowders was a single phase (cubic) without the hexagonal phase. However, as sintering temperature increased, the formation and increment of hexagonal structures was confirmed. The ZnS ceramic sintered at a temperature of $750^{\circ}C$ showed poor transmittance because it was not completely sintered and because of the pore effect. The ZnS ceramic with the highest transmittance (approximately 69%) was sintered at $800^{\circ}C$. As sintering temperature increased, transmittance gradually decreased owing to the increase in the formation of the hexagonal phase.

Recently, friction stir welding of dissimilar materials are one of the biggest issues in terms of light-weight and eco-friendly technology of the automotive, aircraft and ship industry. In this study, friction stir welding of dissimilar materials is introduced with different tool rotational speed. Materials used in experimentation consist of A357 gravity cast aluminum alloy and FB590 high-strength steel plates. Dissimilar materials of plate type are fabricated with width of 150mm, length of 300mm and thickness of 3mm and welding is carried out by the lap joint method. The correlation between probe length and mechanical properties were investigated according to rotational speed and welding speed at tool tilt angle 0 degree. Consequently, feasibility of FSWed dissimilar materials were successfully presented in case of cast aluminum and high-strength steel at lap joint method.
