A lot of information storage devices have been introduced and developed for recently years. The trends of those devices are high capacity, compact size, low power consumption, reliability, and removability for data interchange with other device. As a satisfaction of these trends, near-field technique is in the spotlight as the next generation device. In order for a near-field recording to be successfully implemented in the storage device, a slider and suspension is introduced as actuating mechanism. The optical slider is designed considering near-filed optics. Suspension is not only supports slider performance, and tracking servo capacity but also meets the optical characteristics such as tilt aberration, and guarantee to satisfy shock performances for the mobility fir the actuator. In this study, the optical slider and the suspension for near-field probe array are designed and analyzed considering dynamic performance of head-gimbal assembly and shock simulation..

For the efficient operation of sensor networks, it is very important to design sensor networks for sensors to utilize their energies in very effective ways. Cluster-based routing schemes such as LEACH can achieve their energy efficiencies by delivering data between cluster heads and sensor nodes. In those cluster-based schemes, cluster reconfiguration algorithm is one of the most critical issues to achieve longer operation lifetime of sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a new energy efficient cluster reconfiguration algorithm. Proposed method does not require any location or energy information of sensors, and can configure clusters with fair cluster regions such that all the sensors in a sensor network can utilize their energies equally. The performances of the proposed scheme have been compared with LEACH and LEACH-C.

A weakly nonlinear seakeeping methodology for predicting motions and loads is presented in this paper. This methodology assumes linear radiation and diffraction forces, calculated in the frequency domain, and fully nonlinear Froude-Krylov and hydrostatic forces, evaluated in the time domain. The particular approach employed here allows to overcome numerical problems connected to the determination of the impulse response functions. The procedure is divided into three consecutive steps: evaluation of dynamic sinkage and trim in calm water that can significantly influence the final results, a linear seakeeping analysis in the frequency domain and a weakly nonlinear simulation. The first two steps are performed employing a three-dimensional Rankine panel method. Nonlinear Froude-Krylov and hydrostatic forces are computed in the time domain by pressure integration on the actual wetted surface at each time step. Although nonlinear forces are evaluated into the time domain, the equations of motion are solved in the frequency domain iteratively passing from the frequency to the time domain until convergence. The containership S175 is employed as a test case for evaluating the capability of this methodology to correctly predict the nonlinear behavior related to wave induced motions and loads in head seas; numerical results are compared with experimental data provided in literature.

In general, anionic and cationic surfactants are incompatible because their mixtures form insoluble complexes. There are, however, some complexes that are soluble and behave like regular surfactants, specifically like nonionic surfactants, thus named pseudo-nonionic surfactant complexes. Pseudo-nonionic complexes are more effective and efficient than their ionic surfactant components as shown by their equilibrium and dynamic surface tensions and interfacial tensions. They pack at the interface more than their ionic components. Since, pseudo-nonionic complexes show their own characteristics, they can be treated as separate classes of surfactants distinct from ionic and nonionic surfactants. Novel cationic surfactant was synthesized, having the polyhydroxyl group at the head group. We found that aqueous mixtures of our cationic surfactant and usual anionic surfactant(SDS) could form homogeneous solutions even at high concentration. The properties of mixed surfactant solutions were measured. Foam stability, CMC(critical micelle concentration), water hardness tolerance and thickening effect were tested. The foam stability of mixed surfactants was very good and various synergy effects were observed.

MANET has a highly dynamic topology because it consists of only mobile nodes. Various attacks using these characteristics exist. Among them, damage of the attacks based flooding such as DoS or DDos is large and traceback of the attack node is not easy. It is because route information by moving of intermediate nodes which pass the data changes frequently. In this paper, we propose table-based traceback technique to perform efficient traceback although route information by moving of nodes changes frequently. Cluster head manages route management table in order to form cluster status table and network topology snapshot for storing the location information of mobile nodes when cluster member nodes change. Also, bloom filter is used to reduce the amount of storing route information. The performance of the proposed technique is confirmed through experiment.

The potential of the liquid column vibration absorber (LCVA) as a seismic vibration control device for structures has been explored in this paper. In this work, the structure has been modeled as a linear, viscously damped single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system. The governing differential equations of motion for the damper liquid and for the coupled structure-LCVA system have been derived from dynamic equilibrium. The nonlinear orifice damping in the LCVA has been linearized by a stochastic equivalent linearization technique. A transfer function formulation for the structure-LCVA system has been presented. The design parameters of the LCVA have been identified and by applying the transfer function formulation the optimum combination of these parameters has been determined to obtain the most efficient control performance of the LCVA in terms of the reduction in the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) displacement response of the structure. The study has been carried out for an example structure subjected to base input characterized by a white noise power spectral density function (PSDF). The sensitivity of the performance of the LCVA to the coefficient of head loss and to the tuning ratio have also been examined and compared with that of the liquid column damper (LCD). Finally, a simulation study has been carried out with a recorded accelerogram, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the LCVA.

A mathematical model for the flowrate and rotation speed of RCP during idling was established. The numerical calculation method and dimensionless method were used to analyze the flow, head, torque and pressure and speed changes under idle conditions. Regularity, using the Q criterion vortex identification judgment method combined with surface flow spectrum morphology analysis to diagnose the vortex dynamic characteristics on RCP blade. On impeller blade, there is two oscillations in the pressure ratio on pressure surface in blade outlet region. The velocity on the suction surface is two times more oscillating than the inlet of blade, and there is an intersection with the velocity ratio curve on pressure surface. On blade of guide vane, the pressure ratio increases along the inlet to outlet direction, and the speed ratio decreases with the increase of idle time. There is a vortex that rotates counterclockwise on the suction surface, and the streamline on the suction surface of blade is subjected to the entrainment and blocking action of the vortex creates a large reverse flow in the main flow region. There are two vortices at the outlet of guide vane suction side and the vortices are in opposite directions.

In recent years, the market has shown increasing interest in pump-turbines. The prompt availability of pumped storage plants and the benefits to the power system achieved by peak lopping, providing reserve capacity, and rapid response in frequency control are providing a growing advantage. In this context, there is a need to develop pumpturbines that can reliably withstand dynamic operation modes, fast changes of discharge rate by adjusting the variable diffuser vanes, as well as fast changes from pumping to turbine operation. In the first part of the present study, various flow patterns linked to operation of a pump-turbine system are discussed. In this context, pump and turbine modes are presented separately and different load cases are shown in each operating mode. In order to create modern, competitive pump-turbine designs, this study further explains what design challenges should be considered in defining the geometry of a pump-turbine impeller. The second part of the paper describes an innovative, staggered approach to impeller development, applied to a low head pump-turbine project. The first level of the process consists of optimization strategies based on evolutionary algorithms together with 3D in-viscid flow analysis. In the next stage, the hydraulic behavior of both pump mode and turbine mode is evaluated by solving the full 3D Navier-Stokes equations in combination with a robust turbulence model. Finally, the progress in hydraulic design is demonstrated by model test results that show a significant improvement in hydraulic performance compared to an existing reference design.

To analyze the physical processes of sea-breeze development over a coastal urban area, numerical simulation for seabreeze (SB) and its frontogenesis was examined based on urbanized MM5 (uMM5) with urban canopy parameterization. On 6 August 2006, SB and its front were well developed in Busan under a weak offshore flow. As a result of wind vector, ZVB (Zero Velocity Boundary), potential temperature obtained the uMM5, at 0900 LST, SB advanced below 200 m height in the coastal areas and the internal boundary grew with the urban coastal region. At noon, the height of the SB head with updraft was approximately one and a half times (~600 m) higher than its depth in central urban. Applying the frontogenesis function, the SB structure for frontogenesis and frontolysis were complicated spatially; the dynamic effects of wind (i.e. convergence and tilting term) could play an important role in the growth of SB, especially the convergence effect.

In most hard disk drives that apply the ramp load/unload technology, the head is unloaded at the outer edge of the disk while the disk is rotating. During the unloading process, slider-disk contacts may occur by lift-off force and rebound of the slider. The main issue of this paper is to prevent the slider-disk contact by rebound, and we apply a disk bump to the unloading process. To do so, first, the ranges of bump dimension are determined. Second, the stability of each bump is checked by dynamic simulation. Finally, unload simulations are performed for stable bump designs. As a result of these steps, the effect of the bump design and the position for the unloading performance were investigated. As a consequence, we propose the optimal bump design to improve the unloading performance. Furthermore, we can identify to remove rebound contact by applying a bump on disk during the unloading process.
