The purpose of this study was to determine the level of toothbrush bacterial growth, whether the dryness of the toothbrush head differs depending on the number of holes in the head, and to use these results as a reference for future toothbrush design. Two-millimeter holes were created on the head of the toothbrushes in groups of three, one, or zero holes. We made the solution with Streptococcus mutans, and the toothbrushes were placed in the solution and agitated. The toothbrushes were shaken to remove moisture and allowed to air-dry. The toothbrush heads were swabbed with saline and then placed in two inoculation groups. The first group was inoculated with a 102 dilution of the S. mutans culture and the second was inoculated with the original culture. After incubation, bacterial colony numbers were measured. The number of holes on the toothbrush head correlated with a decrease in number of cultured bacterial colonies. Our model of a toothbrush head with holes indicated that these holes in the toothbrush head were effective in reducing the level of microbial contamination and that a greater number of holes creates an improved toothbrush sanitation effect. The average number of colonies on the head of toothbrush by number of holes was high, followed by the number of holes 0, 1 and 3, and the average number of colony among toothbrush heads was same. The use of a toothbrush with holes between the toothbrush head indicates that it is effective in reducing the level of microbial contamination between the toothbrush head and toothbrush and the higher the number of holes, the better the effect.

There could be significant numbers of isolated stellar mass black holes in our Galaxy. The detection of these black holes will provide important clues on the origin of supermassive black holes. Interstellar gas will be accreted to these isolated black holes in nearly spherical flow. The gas and the interstellar magnetic field will be compressed and emit bremsstrahlung and magnetic bremsstrahlung. We calculate the density, temperature, magnetic field of the accretion flow onto a 10 solar mass black hole as well as its radiative emission; special attention is given to cyclotron radiation and synchrotron radiation, which covers from microwave to X-ray. We consider the possibility to detect these radiation from isolated Galactic black holes with current instruments and surveys.

In KACC'91 and '92 conference, we proposed a method of automatically detecting the shape of the faulty holes in a shadow mask by use of CCD ca.mera and image data processing technic. In this method, two adjoining test areas from one image data. of the shadow mask are taken and comparing the shape of holes in these two areas, we can detect the faults in the shadow mask. In this paper, a method is described by use of spatial filtering of effectively finding the faulty holes from the difference image data between the two tested image data. The main role of the filter is to remove sampling errors occurring at the edge of the holes. And the second role is not only to find the existence of faulty holes but also exactly express the shape of faulty holes. Computer simulations and actual experiments with shadow masks have shown that this method of fault detection is very effective for practical use.

This study investigates the behavior of fatigue crack propagating between holes or holes lilted with another materials. It is experimentally and analytically confirmed that the center crack stops when its tip reaches near the center line of the holes and a small crack is initiated from the boundaries of holes or the holes filled with another materials and it propagates to final fracture. The mechanical behaviors of center crack near the another materials are also investigated. The phenomenon that this crack propagates to fracture is investigated by compliance method.

An experimental study has been conducted to measure the local film-cooling effectiveness and the heat transfer coefficient for a single row of rectangular-shaped holes. four different cooling hole shapes such ai a straight rectangular hole, a rectangular hole with laterally expanded exit, a circular hole and a two-dimensional slot are tested. A technique using thermochromic liquid crystals determine adiabatic film cooling effectiveness values and heat transfer coefficients on the test surface. Both film cooling effectiveness and heat transfer coefficient are measured for various blowing rates and compared with the results of the cylindrical ho1es and the two-dimensional slot. The flow patterns downstream of holes are calculated numerically using a cummercial package. The results show that the rectangular hopes provide better peformance than the cylindrical holes. For the rectangular holes with expanded exit, the penetration is reduced significantly, and the higher and more uniform cooling Peformance is obtained even at relatively high blowing rates.

Ventilated disc was improved for reducing judder and heat. But the crack among vent holes occurs due to stress concentration. We investigate the stress distribution of vent holes. The vent holes with shape of a right angle, a chamfer and rounding was analyzed. The result of FEA was that rounded vent holes have a minimum stress. Also Maximum stress distributed within holes. Therefore We suggest that the rounded vent holes is good to reduce the crack.

Fatigue lives of C.T. specimens containing the holes or the holes filled with other materials are investiated by experimental and analytical methods. The results of the study are as follows; 1) The fatigue lives are in the order of E'/E > 1, E'/E = 1, and E'/E < 1, where E' is the Young's modulus of other materials filling holes and E is that of matrix. 2) The fatigue life of E'/E = 0 is shortest than thost of E'/E > 1, E'/E = 1 and E'/E < 1. 3) The fatigue life of C.T. specimen containing the holes filled with other materials is shorter than that of matrix without holes. 4) Because of the stress concentration around the bonding boundary, crack initiates from the lower left on the boundary and propagates toward the upper right along the boundary.

An experimental study has been conducted to measure the temperature fields and the local film cooling effectiveness for two and three staggered rows of the rectangular shaped-holes with various blowing rates. The hydraulic diameter of rectangular-shaped hole is 10mm. To compare with the film cooling performance of rectangular-shaped hole, two kinds of circular holes are tested. One has the same hydraulic diameter as the rectangular hole and the other has the same cross sectional area. Also, rectangular holes with expanded exit with same inlet area as rectangular ones are tested. Temperature fields are measured using a thermocouple rake attached on three-axis traversing system. Adiabatic film cooling effectiveness on the surface are obtained based on experimental results of thermochromic liquid crystals. The film cooling effectiveness is measured for various blowing rates and compared with the results for the cylindrical holes. In case of 2 rows, the rectangular holes has better performance than circular holes due to its slot-like geometry. In case of 3 rows, the effecta of hole shape is not clear.

The mechanical fastening has some advantages in respect of the fastening strength and disassemble of the fastened parts. However, at the same time it has some dangerous factors, can cause fatigue crack initiation and propagation due to not only the static loading such as cargo and passengers but also the dynamic loading like vibrations which occur in the engines and the propellers. For this reason, the strength evaluation for the mechanical fastenings along with the sophisticated and detailed mechanical design and the safety evaluation should be executed, In this paper, we were carried out experiments to study fatigue crack growth paths in structures containing the multiple circular holes. It was investigated that how circular holes are affected on fatigue crack growth paths using the specimen consists of A5052-H112, which is widely used as the ship materials. It was found from the experimental results that the fatigue crack as if it is drawn to circular holes when crack tip approach to circular holes. However, it did not go into circular hole if there is the next circular hole. Therefore, the clarification of mechanism on the fatigue crack initiation and the propagation in structures containing the multiple circular holes can be expected in this study.
