Deformation mechanism map of Langdon-Mohammed type for YBa2Cu3O7-x superconducting ceramic was constructed by considering mechanisms of Nabarro-Herring Coble and powder-law creep and grain boundary sliding (GBS) with an accommodation by grain boundary diffusion. The map was found consistent with experi-mental results not only of the creep the also of the superplastic deformation. It showed the transition from interface reaction-controlled to the grain boundary diffusion-controlled GBS mechanism at about 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ grain size and 100 MPa flow stress in agreement with the experimental results.

Cu/PET composite films are widely used in a variety of wearable electronics. Lifetime of the electronics is determined by adhesion between the Cu film and the PET substrate. The formation of an anisotropic nanostructure on the PET surface by surface modification can enhance Cu/PET interfacial adhesion. The shape and size of the anisotropic nanostructures of the PET surface can be controlled by varying the surface modification conditions. In this work, the effect of Cu/PET interface nanostructures on the failure mechanism of a Cu/PET flexible composite film is studied. From observation of the morphologies of the anisotropic nanostructures on plasma-treated PET surfaces, and cross-sections and surfaces of the fractured specimens, the Cu/PET interface area and nanostructure width are analyzed and the failure mechanism of the Cu/PET film is investigated. It is found that the failure mechanism of the Cu/PET flexible composite film depends on the shape and size of the plasmatreated PET surface nanostructures. Cu/PET interface nanostructures with maximal peel strength exhibit multiple craze-crack propagation behavior, while smaller or larger interface nanostructures exhibit single-path craze-crack propagation behavior.

In this study, solubilization experiments of n-octane oil were performed by micellar solutions of polymeric nonionic surfactant Pluronic L64 ($EO_{13}PO_{30}EO_{13}$) at room temperature. A single spherical drop of n-octane was injected into aqueous surfactant solution using an oil drop contacting technique and solubilization rate of n-octane was measured by observing the size of oil drop with time. It was found that solubilization rate was independent of initial oil drop size but inversely proportional to the initial surfactant concentration. These results revealed that solubilization of n-octane oil by L64 micellar solution is controlled by interface-controlled mechanism rather than diffusion-controlled mechanism. Dynamic interfacial tension measurements showed that interfacial tension decreases such as from $2.59{\times}10^{-2}$ to $2.45{\times}10^{-2}$, and further to $2.13{\times}10^{-2}mN/m$ as surfactant concentration increases from 8 to 9 and further to 10 wt% respectively. The equilibration time was also found to decrease slightly with an increase in surfactant concentration. All three systems reached an equilibrium within 7 minutes.

ABR traffic form ATM LAN is controlled through RM cell, and the interface function to public ATM network is necessary to provide ABR service efficiently. This paper presnets new interface architecture, which is based on "Projected Node" [6]. using AIPU(ABR Interface Proxy Unit) to support ABR traffic streams incoming from ATM LAN in the public ATM network. For the efficient interworking, the AIPU has designed for interworking functions with ERICA switch mechanism. Conventional ERICA switch mechanism specified in TM 4.0 is basically used for short distance comparative to public network, however AIPU adopts the novel control mechanism to cover logng roud trip time (RTT). To improve the problems and to provide a dynamic range of UCI(Update Count Interval), this paper proposes, a novel control scheme, DUCI ( Dynamic Update Count Interval. And the paper shows inefficiencies of ERICA mechanism with fixed UCI through the simulation results, and represents the performance enhancement of DUCI mechanism developed to adjust the update count interval dynamically.

Electrically debonding adhesives[EDA], one of the controlled delamination materials[CDM] is reviewed. CDM can be defined as the ability to separate adhesive bonded assemblies without causing damage to the substrates. Its application includes electronics, medical surgery, dentistry, building and general manufacturing where the opportunity to separate assemblies is important. There are several important mechanisms of EDAs; faradaic reaction, phase separation and anode detachment, cathodic debonding, gas emission mechanism, and mechanical stresses. These mechanisms are reviewed with various research results. Since the mechanism behind the electrochemical debonding of adhesives is not well understood, this review aims to help the research scientists in the industries. Finally, new applications of EDA are introduced as new business opportunity.

In this study, solubilization experiments of n-decane, n-undecane and n-dodecane oil were performed by micellar solutions of polymeric nonionic surfactant Pluronic L64($EO_{13}PO_{30}EO_{13}$) at room temperature. A single spherical drop of hydrocarbon oil was injected into aqueous surfactant solution using an oil drop contacting technique and solubilization rate of hydrocarbon oil was measured by observing the size of oil drop with time. It was shown that solubilization rate decreased with the alkane carbon number(ACN) of the hydrocarbon oil. The solubilization rate was also found to be independent of initial oil dorp size and almost linearly proportional to the initial surfactant concentration. These results revealed that solubilization of n-decane, n-undecane and n-dodecane oils by L64 micellar solution is controlled by interface-controlled mechanism but not by diffusion-controlled mechanism. The equilibrium solubilization capacity(ESC) was measured by a turbidimeter and the result showed that EAC decreased with an increase in ACN but increased with both increases in surfactant concentration and solubilization rate. Dynamic interfacial tension measurements showed that interfacial tension and equilibrium time increased with an increase in ACN of hydrocarbon oil but decreased with an increase in surfactant concentration.

An investigation of the effectiveness of the interface treatment when column concrete jacketing is performed is presented. Alternative methods of interface connection were used in order to investigate the performance of strengthened concrete columns. These connecting techniques involved roughening the surface of the original column, embedding steel dowels into the original column and a combination of these two techniques. The experimental program included three strengthened specimens, one original specimen (unstrengthened) and one as-built specimen (monolithic). The specimens represented half height full-scale old Greek Code (1950's) designed ground floor columns of a typical concrete frame building. The jackets of the strengthened specimens were constructed with shotcrete. All specimens were subjected to displacement controlled earthquake simulation loading. The seismic performance of the strengthened specimens is compared to both the original and the monolithic specimens. The comparison was performed in terms of strength, stiffness and hysteretic response. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the strengthening methods and indicate that the proper construction of a jacket can improve the behaviour of the specimens up to a level comparable to monolithic behaviour. It was found that different methods of interface treatment could influence the failure mechanism and the crack patterns of the specimens. It was also found that the specimen that combined roughening with dowel placement performed the best and all strengthened columns were better at dissipating energy than the monolithic specimen.

The study for direct synthesis of TaC carbide which was a reaction product of tantalum and carbon in the cast iron was performed. Cast iron which has hypo-eutectic composition was cast bonded in the metal mold with tantalum thin sheet of thickness of $100{\mu}m$. The contents of carbon and silicon of cast iron matrix was controlled to have constant carbon equivalent of 3.6. The chracteristics of microstructure and the formation mechanism of TaC carbide in the interfacial reaction layer in the cast iron/tantalum thin sheet heat treated isothermally at $950^{\circ}C$ for various time were examined. TaC carbide reaction layer was grown to the dendritic morphology in the cast iron/tantalum thin sheet interface by the isothermal heat treatment. The composition of TaC carbide was 48.5 at.% $Ti{\sim}48.6$ at.% C-2.8 at.% Fe. The hardness of reaction layer was MHV $1100{\sim}1200$. The thickness of reaction layer linearly increased with increasing the total content of carbon in the cast iron matrix and isothermal heat treating time. The growth constant for TaC reaction layer was proportional to the log[C] of the matrix. The formation mechanism of TaC reaction layer at the interface of cast iron/tantalum thin sheet was proved to be the interfacial reaction.

The Corrosion behavior of the matrix of the $\rho$-alumina bonded alumina vibrated castable was, on the basis of Jabsen's theory, elucidated by use of the Kingery's reaction mechanism. Corrosion of the matrix during induction period was controlled by the molecular diffusion. The temperature dependence of activation process is well established by the Arrhenius plots. The difference of Ca concentration between slag and interface is 23.2%, which causes a driving force of the materials transfer. The extent of the corrosion of the matrix is more deeper than that of the sintered mullite, but the corrosion mechanism can be well employed as the reaction mechanism proposed by the Kingery. The life time of the castable may be well estimated by the corrosion mechanism of Kingery.

This paper describes the development of a 3-DOF laparoscopic assistant robot system with motor-controlled bending and zooming mechanisms using the voice command motion control and auto-tracking control. The system is designed with two major criteria: safety and adaptability. To satisfy the safety criteria we designed the robot with optimized range of motion. For adaptability, the robot is designed with compact size to minimize interference with the staffs in the operating room. The required external motions were replaced by the bending mechanism within the abdomen using flexible laparoscope. The zooming of the robot is achieved through in and out motion at the port where the laparoscope is inserted. The robot is attachable to the bedside using a conventional laparoscope holder with multiple DOF joints and is compact enough for hand-carry. The voice-controlled command input and auto-tracking control is expected to enhance the overall performance of the system while reducing the control load imposed on the surgeon during a laparoscopic surgery. The proposed system is expected to have sufficient safety features and an easy-to-use interface to enhance the overall performance of current laparoscopy.
