A simple general equilibrium model, where risk aversion and dividend process switching play a key role, shows that a stock price in a bubble-free economy can be observationally equivalent to that of the intrinsic bubble economy. Specifically, I seek a set of conditions under which the functional form of asset prices in the bubble-free economy is the same as that in the intrinsic bubble approach.

The success of SDB (silicon wafer direct bonding) technology can be estabilished by bonding on the bonded interface with no defects and Preventing temperature dependent bubbles. In this research, we observed the behavior of the intrinsic bubbles by transmitting the infrared light and the increase of the bubble pressure was found. And, the $SiO_2$-$SiO_2$ bonded wafer was achieved, which generates no intrinsic bubbles in the annealing under the atmospheric pressure. The intrinsic bubbles in the $SiO_2$-$SiO_2$ bonded wafer were generated in the annealing in the ultra high vacuum. This experimental result shows the relation between the bubble growth and the pressure.

The bonding interface is dependent on the properties of surfaces prior to SDB(silicon wafer direct bonding). In this paper, we prepared silicon surfaces in several chemical solutions, and annealed bonding wafers which were combined with thermally oxidized wafers and bare silicon wafers in the temperature range of $600{\times}1000^{\circ}C$. After bonding, the bonding interface is investigated by an infrared(IR) topography system which uses the penetrability of infrared through silicon wafer. Using this procedure, we observed intrinsic bubbles at elevated temperatures. So, we verified that these bubbles are related to cleaning and drying conditions, and the interface oxides on silicon wafer reduce the formation of intrinsic bubbles.

Component-scale modeling of boiling is predominantly based on the Eulerian-Eulerian two-fluid approach. Within this framework, wall boiling is accounted for via the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) model and, within this model, the bubble is characterized using three main parameters: departure diameter (D), nucleation site density (N), and departure frequency (f). Typically, the magnitudes of these three parameters are obtained from empirical correlations. However, in recent years, efforts have been directed toward mechanistic modeling of the boiling process. Of the three parameters mentioned above, the departure diameter (D) is least affected by the intrinsic uncertainties of the nucleate boiling process. This feature, along with its prominence within the RPI boiling model, has made it the primary candidate for mechanistic modeling ventures. Mechanistic modeling of D is mostly carried out through solving of force balance equations on the bubble. Forces incorporated in these equations are formulated as functions of the radius of the bubble and have been developed for, and applied to, low-pressure conditions only. Conversely, for high-pressure conditions, no mechanistic information is available regarding the growth rates of bubbles and the forces acting on them. In this study, we use direct numerical simulation coupled with an interface tracking method to simulate bubble growth under high (up to 45 bar) pressure, to obtain the kind of mechanistic information required for an RPI-type approach. In this study, we compare the resulting bubble growth rate curves with predictions made with existing experimental data.

The characterization of pore properties (mean pore size and pore size distribution) of the active layer in a UF membrane is important not only in order to obtain information about the factors affecting pore formation during membrane manufacturing but also to understand deeply the mechanism of solute and solvent transport through pores. Many methods of characterizing quantitatively the pore properties of UF membranes have been suggested in the literature: solvent and gas flow measurement, bubble point determination, electron microscopy, gas adsorption/desorption measurement, rejection measurement etc. But most of these methods involve time-consuming procedures and involve some wellknown problems and uncertainties.

In this study, the Eulerian/Lagrangian one-way coupling method is proposed to predict flow noise due to Blade-Tip Vortex Cavitation (BTVC). The proposed method consists of four sequential steps: flow field simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques, reconstruction of wing-tip vortex using vortex model, generation of BTVC using bubble dynamics model and acoustic wave prediction using the acoustic analogy. Because the CFD prediction of tip vortex structure generally suffers from severe under-prediction of its strength along the steamwise direction due to the intrinsic numerical damping of CFD schemes and excessive turbulence intensity, the wing-tip vortex along the freestream direction is regenerated by using the vortex modeling. Then, the bubble dynamics model based on the Rayleigh-Plesset equation was employed to simulate the generation and variation of BTVC. Finally, the flow noise due to BTVC is predicted by modeling each of spherical bubbles as a monople source whose strength is proportional to the rate of time-variation of bubble volume. The validity of the proposed numerical methods is confirmed by comparing the predicted results with the measured data.

The pressure pulses generated from the underwater electric spark system ranged from 0.4 to 1.6kJ are measured with the variation of source depth and range. The characteristics of pressure pulses obtained through this experiment continue to show the same electric energy and depth dependence previously reported, but two particular phenomena are observed. First, it is observed that the peak pressure of the 1st bubble pulse induced from implosion is higher than that of the initial shock wave, which is particularily apparent to high electric energy more than 10kJ previous studies. Second, it has been reported that the energy ratio (potential energy of bubble/intrinsic energy of source) has some tendency to "droop" on the low electric energy as 0.02 for 5kJ and 0.01 for 1kJ but the results of the present experiment show that it continues to have the ratio of 0.01 near 1kJ again.

With the aiming to improve the comprehension of an expansion process of perlite, a numerical study has been carried out, concerning a water vapor bubble growth in a softened perlite melt. Isothermal case of the model is investigated and compared with the experimental results. Water content is an intrinsic parameter in a perlite expansion. With increasing water content, the expansion time is faster. But it can not be changed easily in an industrial process. Initial temperature is a changeable parameter in an industrial process. Higher initial temperature hastens the expansion time and this can be a key parameter in an industrial process. Experimental results are observed by SEM. Increasing initial temperature, perlite shape becomes close to sphere. Calculated bubble growth results are compared with experimental results. Packing density is measured and compared with simulated results. These results indicate that some other factors are applied on the model during heat transformation to work.
