The increased awareness of electromagnetic wave hazards has prompted studies on electromagnetic shielding using conductive materials in the construction industry. Previous studies have explored the effects of the types of conductive materials and their mix proportions on the electromagnetic shielding performance; however, there has been insufficient research on the effect of the geometry of the conductive materials on the electromagnetic shielding performance. Therefore, in this study, the dependence of the electromagnetic shielding performance on the cross-sectional geometry, diameter and length of fibers was investigated. The results showed that the electromagnetic shielding performance improved when the fiber length increased or the diameter decreased, but the effect of the cross-sectional geometry of the fibers was smaller than the effect of the fiber spacing factor.

The optimum cross-sectional area Profile of gas-cooled high-temperature superconductor (HTS) current lead is analyzed to have minimum helium boil-off rate. The conventional constant area HTS lead has much higher helium consumption than the optimum HTS lead considered in this study. The optimum HTS lead has variable cross-sectional area to have constant safety factor. An analytical formula of optimum shape of lead and temperature profile are obtained. For multi-step HTS current leads, the optimum tape lengths and minimum heat dissipation rate are also formulated. The developed formulations are applied to the Bi-2223 material, and the differences between constant area, constant safety-factor, and multi-step current leads are discussed.

This study investigated the influence of concrete compressive strength for the lateral confinement of high-strength spiral reinforcement. The main test parameters were the compressive strength of concrete, the yield strength of spiral reinforcement, and cross sectional shape. A total of 48 cylindrical test specimens with circularand rectangular sections were cast and tested under monotonic concentric compression.

In this study we have examined electroless chemical plating on the plasma grafted poly [ethylene terephathalate］(PET) fabric in order to improve the interfacial adhesion between metal and fiber. The vapour phase of acrylic acid introduced on the PET surface and the graft polymerization was carried out by using cold plasma, resulting in the grafting yield of 0.8-1.3 wt％. The carboxyl group of the plasma grafted was identified by FT-IR-ATR spectra. The Interfacial adhesion was related to the carboxyl group. After electroless chemical plating of nickel, it showed that the more the carboxyl, the better the interfacial adhesion. Comparing to the untreated, the plasma grafted fabric showed fairly good interfacial adhesion(5B grade, ASTM D3359) . The shielding effect of electromagnetic wave showed 95dB. The shielding effect depends on the fabric structure, the surface structure, and the cross sectional shape of fibers. The dense fabric structure, the etched surface like a microcrater, and the trigonal cross sectional shape were prefered.

Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) was used to study cross sectional profiles and dimensions of fatigue striations in 2017-T351 aluminum alloy. Their widths (SW) and heights $(SH,\;SH_h)$ were measured from the cross sectional Profiles of three-dimension AFM images. The following results that will be helpful to understand the fatigue crack growth mechanism were obtained. (1) Coincidence of the crack growth rate with the striation width was found down to the growth rate of $10^{-5}$ mm/cycle. (2) The relation of $SH={\alpha}(SW)^{1.2}$ was obtained. (3) The ratio of the striation height to its width SH/SW and did not depend on the stress intensity factor range ${\Delta}K$ and the stress ratio R. From these results, the applicability of the AFM to nano-fractography is discussed.

Experiments were done for the three dimensional unsteady flow in a counter rotating axial flow fan under stable operating condition. Flow fields in a counter rotating axial flow fan were measured at cross-sectional planes of the upstream and downstream of each rotor. Cross sectional flow patterns were investigated through the acquired data by the $45^{\circ}$ inclined hot-wire. Flow characteristics such as tip vortex, secondary flow and tip leakage flow were confirmed through axial, radial and tangential velocity vector plot. Swirl velocity, which was generated by the front rotor, was recovered in the form of static pressure rise by the rear rotor except for hub and tip regions.

This paper deals with conversion from STL file to Slice cross-sectional information for Stereolithography. The STL file consist of three vertices of triangle and normal vectors in order to represent three dimension shape, but It is very difficult to convert STL file intoSlice file directly, because of file size from one Mbyte to tens of Mbytes. So, The system is accomplished data flow such as neutral.dat, .SL1, .SL2, .SL3, and .SLC file. The data processing is as follows: 1. Create a neutral file including common information. 2. Modify STL file within effective scope of SLA. 3. Calculate a point of intersection between plane equation and line equation. 4. Sort z values by increasing order. 5. Search closed loop by method of singlylinked linear list. The system is developed by using Borland C++ 3.1 compiler in the environment of Pentium PC. We get a satisfactory prototype as a result of application about a lot of household electrical appliances.

In this study, a fuzzy theory is introduced to control the cross-sectional strip shape in cold rolling. A fuzzy controller is developed based on the production data and the operational knowledge. The cold rolled products are characterized into several types based on their irregularities. For each type of irregular strip shape, fuzzy controller calculates the changes of bender forces of work and intermediate rolls using fuzzy control algorithm. To simulate the continuous shape control, fuzzy controller is linked with emulator which is developed using neural network. The developed fuzzy controller and emulator simulate the cold rolling process until the irregularities converge to the tolerable range to produce unifrom cross-sectional strip shape. The results from this simulation are reasonable for various irregular strip shapes.

The topic of this study is to strengthen cracked beams with prefabricated RC U cross-sectional plates. The damaged beams were repaired by epoxy based glue. The repaired beams were strengthened using prefabricated plates. The strengthening plates were bonded to the bottom and side faces of the beams by anchorage rods and epoxy. The strengthened beams were incrementally loaded up to maximum load capacities. The experimental results were satisfactory since the load carrying capacities of damaged beams were increased approximately 76% due to strengthening. It was observed that strengthening plates had a dominant effect on the performance of beams in terms of both the post-elastic strength enhancement and the ductility. The experimental program was supported by a three-dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis. The experimental results were compared with the results obtained from the beam modeled with ANSYS finite element program.

Neutron radiography has been widely used in many research areas due to its different characteristics from X-rays. Neutron tomography is a powerful tool because it can clearly show the inside of an object that the eye cannot see. However, generally, commercial software is used for the reconstruction of neutron tomography. It means that maintenance costs are incurred and analysis is inefficient in some cases. In this respect, our own image processing code is required to reconstruct neutron images efficiently. In this study, an image processing code is developed for reconstruction of cross-sectional images from neutron radiography taken from the side of the object. Using the developed code, cross-sectional images of the sample are successfully reconstructed.
