The effect of external leakage on the acoustic performance of Helmholtz resonators is experimentally and numerically investigated. The transmission loss of the Helmholtz resonator with a circular perforated hole is measured by using an impedance tube setup. The experimental results are then compared with one-dimensional analytical and three-dimensional numerical results. As the size of the hole increases, the peak of the transmission loss shifts to higher frequency, especially for the holes on the cavity. While the transmission loss is almost independent of the location of the hole on the cavity, the impact of the hole location on the neck on the transmission loss is not negligible. The results show that one-dimensional analytical method can predict the overall trends, whereas three-dimensional numerical method is necessary for more accurate predictions.

The purpose of this study is to develop an efficient algorithm for the management of the shift schedule in nuclear power plants in consideration with the ergonomic criteria and the regulatory codes. The ergonomic criteria considered are the work hours, overtime-work frequency and working time, start and finishing time of works, allocation of rest times and duty-offs, rotating of shifts, etc. to comply with the regulations such as the Labor Standard Act, the ILO Convention No. 171, 178, "the detailed content of a periodic safety review," enforcement regulations 19-2 of the Atomic Energy Act. The developed algorithm for the shift schedule program adopts a heuristic method to minimize the difference the workload for shift workers in nuclear power plants.

Ab initio and density functional theory methods have been employed to study all theoretically possible conformers of fluoroacetic acid. Molecular geometries and energetic of cis and trans monomers and cis dimers in gaseous phase have been obtained using HF, B3LYP and MP2 levels of theory, implementing 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. It was found that cis rotamers are more stable. In addition, it was found that in comparison with acetic acid the strength of hydrogen bonding in fluoroacetic acid decreased. The infrared spectrum frequencies and the vibrational frequency shifts are reported. Natural population and atom in molecule analysis performed to predict electrostatic interactions in the cyclic H-bonded complexes and charges. The proton transfer reaction is studied and activation energy is compared with acetic acid proton transfer reaction.

The photonic quantum ring (PQR) laser is a three dimensional whispering gallery (WG) mode laser and has anomalous quantum wire properties, such as microampere to nanoampere range threshold currents and ${\sqrt{T}}$-dependent thermal red shifts. We observed uniform bottom emissions from a 1-kb smart pixel chip of a $32{\times}32$ InGaAs PQR laser array flip-chip bonded to a 0.35 ${\mu}m$ CMOS-based PQR laser driver. The PQR-CMOS smart pixel array, now operating at 30 MHz, will be improved to the GHz frequency range through device and circuit optimization.

The surface enhanced Raman spectrum of juglone, a traditional natural dye, has been observed by a custom-built micro-Raman setup. The spectral features of juglone significantly differ from those of lawsone, a structural isomer of juglone; only small red shifts of the double bond stretching bands are observed, and strong SERS bands are observed in the lower frequency regions as well. The DFT computations reveal that juglone coordinated to an $Ag^+$ adatom with $H^+$ release best correlates with the observed vibrational characteristics in the SERS spectrum among the plausible configurations of juglone coordinated to an adatom on the Ag surface, in line with the previously studied lawsone case. The differences in the SERS spectra of juglone and lawsone are attributed to the different locations of the hydroxyl group in the two isomers.

The smallest ketenimine and hydrogen cyanide N-methylide ($CH_2CNH$ and $CH_2NCH$) are provided from the argon/acetonitrile matrix samples exposed to radiation from laser ablation of transition-metals. New infrared bands are observed in addition to better determination of the vibrational characteristics for the previously reported bands, and the $^{13}C$ substituted isotopomers ($^{13}{CH_2}^{13}CNH$ and $^{13}CH_2N^{13}CH$) are also generated. Density functional frequency calculations and the D and $^{13}C$ isotopic shifts substantiate the vibrational assignments. $CH_2CNH$ is probably produced through single-step conversion of $CH_3CN$, whereas $CH_2NCH$ through two-step conversion via 2H-azirine. Inter-conversions between these two products evidently do not occur during photolysis and annealing.

We present a GUI-based interactive Python program, VIMAP, which generates radio spectral index maps of active galactic nuclei (AGN) from Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) maps obtained at different frequencies. VIMAP is a handy tool for the spectral analysis of synchrotron emission from AGN jets, specifically of spectral index distributions, turn-over frequencies, and core-shifts. In general, the required accurate image alignment is difficult to achieve because of a loss of absolute spatial coordinate information during VLBI data reduction (self-calibration) and/or intrinsic variations of source structure as function of frequency. These issues are overcome by VIMAP which in turn is based on the two-dimensional cross-correlation algorithm of Croke & Gabuzda (2008). In this paper, we briefly review the problem of aligning VLBI AGN maps, describe the workflow of VIMAP, and present an analysis of archival VLBI maps of the active nucleus 3C 120.

Monofluoroiron(Ⅲ) tetraphenylporphyrin, Fe(TPP)F, and difluoroiron(Ⅲ) tetraphenylporphyrin, [Fe(TPP)F2]- were generated in a various non-aqueous solvents by the reaction between Fe(TPP)Cl and tetrabutylammonium fluoride TBAF 3H2O. Formation of the these complexes was detected by the appearance of the ν(F-Fe) (ν, stretching vibration) at 506 cm-1 for Fe(TPP)F and the ν(F-Fe-F) at 448 cm-1 for [Fe(TPP)F2]-, simultaneously, with 441.6 nm excitation by Resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy. These assignments were confirmed by observed frequency shifts due to 56Fe/54Fe and TPP/TPP-d8/TPP-N15 isotopic substitutions. Difluoroiron complex is an iron(Ⅲ) high-spin complex with the oxidation sensitive band at 1347 cm-1 for ν4 and core size/spin state sensitive band at 1541 cm-1 for ν2.

$^{31}P${$^1H$} nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) have been obtained for complexes formed between apolipoprotein B (apo B) and dipalmytoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) vesicles. NOE measurements have been conducted with broad-band irradiation of the entire $^1H$ spectrum in order to identify the proton source of the NOE. In a unilamellar vesicle formed spontaneously upon mixing aqueous suspensions of long-chain phospholipid with small amount of short-chain lecithin, the maximum NOE occurs at the N-methyl proton resonance position of the choline moiety. With addition of cholesterol to vesicles, the position of the NOE maximum shifts further away from the choline methyl frequency. For the ternary apo B-vesicle-cholesterol complex, the position of the maximum NOE lies halfway between those in vesicles with and without cholesterol.

In this paper, a waveguide-type resonator with a slot is proposed to measure permittivity of thin film from resonant frequency shifting by an attached MUT(Material Under Test). The MUT on the slot shifts resonant frequency by perturbation of electromagnetic field. Amount of shifting resonance frequency is dependent on the permittivity of MUT, and that relation is obtained from numerical simulation. The measured relative permittivity of a thin film with thickness of $65{\mu}m$ is 3.3492 with standard error of ${\pm}0.0605$ in the frequency range of 2 GHz to 3 GHz. Also the proposed method is compared with other measuring methods such as dielectric resonator and waveguide probe systems.
