Influences of various waxes on the consistency of cream was investigated by inspections through microscope, rheometer and sensory test. Fatty acids, higher fatty alcohols, hydrocarbons, and some of natural waxes were used in this experiment. Most above waxes showed good state of emulsion at low concentration, but at higher concentration $(7.0{\sim}8.0%)$, they showed not only an unstable emulsion state but also a critical point of content in consistency. At this critical point of content, the consistency of w/o type cream was increased irregularly. So, it could be identified that consistency of a w/o type cream was strongly dependent on kinds and contents of waxes in continuous phase.

The objective of this study is to propose the FE model for mechanical clinched joint using cohesive zone model to analyze its failure behavior under impact loading. Cohesive zone model (CZM) is two-parameter failure criteria approach, which could describe the failure behavior of joint using critical stress and fracture toughness. In this study, the relationship between failure behavior of mechanical clinched joint and fracture parameters is investigated by FE analysis with CZM. Using this relationship, the critical stress and fracture toughness for tensile and shear mode are determined by H-type tensile test and lap shear test, which were made of 5052 aluminum alloy. The fracture parameters were applied to the tophat impact test to evaluate the crashworthiness. Compared penetration depth and energy absorption at the point where 50% of total displacement in result of FE analysis and experiment test for impact test, those has shown similar crashworthiness.

We have fabricated a superconducting YBCO system according to the pyrolysis method and low pressure apparatus. In our experiment, the X-ray diffraction pattern of the non doped YBaCuO layer indicated that the superconductor contained only 90K phase crystal. The critical temperature and critical current density for a thick layer at $650^{\circ}C$ were Tc=90 K and $Jc=6{\times}10^{4}A/cm^2$ at 90K. In low pressure apparatus, the 90 K phase YBaCuO was grown at a lower temperature compared with the normal system. Tc and Jc at $650^{\circ}C$ were Tc = 90 K and $Jc=6{\times}10^{4}A/cm^2$ at 90K.

An analytical and experimental investigation has been performed on the heated length-to-diameter effect on critical heat flux for fixed exit conditions. A L/D correction factor is developed by applying artificial neural network and conventional regression techniques to the KAIST CHF data base. In addition, experiment is being performed to validate the developed L/D correction factor with independent data. Assessment shows that the developed correction factor is promising for practical applications.

With using artificial neural networks (ANNs), an analytical study related to the heated length effect on critical heat flux(CHF) has been carried out to make an improvement of the CHF prediction accuracy based on local condition correlations or table. It has been carried out to suggest a feasible criterion of the threshold length-to-diameter (L/D) value in which heated length could affect CHF. And within the criterion, a L/D correction factor has been developed through conventional regression. In order to validate the developed L/D correction factor, CHF experiment for various heated lengths have been carried out under low and intermediate pressure conditions. The developed threshold L/D correlation provides a new feasible criterion of L/D threshold value. The developed correction factor gives a reasonable accuracy fur the original database, showing the error of -2.18% for average and 27.75% for RMS, and promising results for new experimental data.

To estimate welding deformation for large steel structures, either experiment result with small specimen or analysis result of FEM with small numerical model is used. Consequently, it is important to decide the welding length of specimen and numerical model not to have an effect on welding deformation for accurate estimation of whole welding deformation. This study experimentally clarifies the effect of welding length on angular distortion due to welding by varying welding length of specimens, but fixing width and thickness of specimens on V-groove butt welding, fillet welding and bead on plate welding. As a resell the critical welding length on fillet welding and on bead on plate welding is over 500mm and on V-groove butt welding is over 1,000mm.

Quench characteristics of HTS cable conductor due to external magnetic field were investigated. Firstly, the influence of critical characteristics of HTS tape on locally applied magnetic field was examined. Secondly, critical current of HTS tapes, which are wound on surface of former, were measured respectively, before the experiment for quench characteristics, Finally, 50mT and 100mT were applied to HTS cable conductor and quench characteristics were investigated through V-I curves. As the results, same as the result of HTS tape, HTS cable conductor showed strong dependence on external magnetic field with direction and magnitude.

The application of the compressive force path method for the design of earthquake-resistant reinforced concrete structural walls with a shear span-to-depth ratio larger than 2.5 has been shown by experiment to lead to a significant reduction of the code specified transverse reinforcement within the critical lengths without compromising the code requirements for structural performance. The present work complements these findings with experimental results obtained from tests on structural walls with a shear span-to-depth ratio smaller than 2.5. The results show that the compressive force path method is capable of safeguarding the code performance requirements without the need of transverse reinforcement confining concrete within the critical lengths. Moreover, it is shown that ductility can be considerably increased by improving the strength of the two bottom edges of the walls through the use of structural steel elements extending to a small distance of the order of 100 mm from the wall base.

The technique of dual-input describing function's synthesis is introduced and the construction of a nonlinear compensator, based on this technique, is proposed. A nonlinear compensator, describing a complex DIDF depending upon amplitude of the second sinusoidal input signal only, is also proposed, where the second sinusoidal input signal is supplied to the nonlinear compensator by external generator. This compensator, connected in a closed loop of the PI speed control of DC motor, can improve the speed response in view instability limit cycle, low speed response and disturbance of the dynamic shift of the Nyquist's critical point -1 + j O. It is verified theoretically that the improvement of speed response of DC motor using the proposed compensator is achieved by means of the dynamic shift of the Nyquist's critical point on the complex plane, and the speed characterstics of DC motor is to be tested through experiment for its performance.

This paper presents the analysis of the dielectric characteristics of a hot $SF_6$ gas in a gas circuit breaker. Hot gas flow is analyzed using the FVFLIC method considering the moving boundary, material properties of real $SF_6$ gas, and arc plasma. In the arc model, the re-absorption of the emitted radiation is approximated with the boundary source layer where the re-absorbed radiation energy is input as an energy source term in the energy conservation equation. The breakdown criterion of a hot gas is predicted using the critical electric field as a function of temperature and pressure. To validate the simulation method, breakdown voltage for a 145kV 40kA circuit breaker was measured for various conditions. Consistent results between the simulation and experiment were confirmed.
