  • This article is devoted to “forgotten” and rarely used technique of matrix analysis, introduced in 60-70th and enhanced by authors. We will study the matrix trace operator and it’s differentiability. This idea generalizes the notion of scalar derivative for matrix computations. The list of the most common derivatives is given at the end of the article. Additionally we point out a close connection of this technique with a least square problem in it’s classical and generalized case.

  • Statement of problem: Implant screw loosening has been remained problem in restorative practices. Surface treatment of screw plays a role of preventing screw from loosening in implant screw mechanism. Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate surface characteristics of TiN and ZrN film ion plated screw with titanium and gold alloy screw and to evaluate wear resistance, surface roughness, and film adhesion on screw surface using various instruments. Material and methods : GoldTite screws and titanium screws provided by 3i (Implant Innovation, USA) and TorqTite screws or titanium screws by Steri-Oss (Nobel Biocare, USA) and gold screws and titanium screws by AVANA (Osstem Implant, korea) were selected. Ion plating which is much superior to other surface modification techniques was carried out for gold screws and titanium screws using Ti and Zr coating materials with nitrogen gas. Ion nitrided surface of each abutment screw was observed with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM, micro-diamond scratch tester, vickers hardness tester, and surface roughness tester. Results : 1) The surface of gold screw and GoldTite is more smooth than ones of other kinds of non coated screw. 2) The ZrN and TiN coated surface is the more smooth than ones of other kinds of screw. 3) The hardness of TiN and ZrN coated surface showed higher than that of non coated surface. 4) The TiN coated titanium screw and ZrN coated gold screw have a good wear resistance and adhesion on the surface. 5) The surface of ZrN coated screw showed low surface roughness compared with the surface of TiN coated screw. Conclusion : It is considered that the TiN and ZrN coated screw which would prevent a screw from loosening can be applicable to implant system and confirmed that TiN and ZrN film act as lubricant on surface of screw due to decrease of friction for recycled tightening and loosening.

  • A taxonomic study on the genus Tropocyclops has been accomplished as a part of the series of studies on the freshwater cyclopoid copepods in South Korea. As a result, the Tropocyclops prasinus, hitherto known from Korea in many reports and papers, turns out to be a species complex of three sibling species: T. prasinus (Fischer, 1860), T. ishidai n. sp., and T. setulifer n. sp. This paper deals with description of two of these new species with taxonomic accounts on their inter- or intraspecific morphological discrepancies.

  • The kinetic studies on the reactions of phenyl N-phenyl phosphoramidochloridate (8) with substituted anilines ($XC_6H_4NH_2$) and deuterated anilines ($XC_6H_4ND_2$) have been carried out in acetonitrile at $60.0^{\circ}C$. The obtained deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs; $k_H/k_D$) are huge secondary inverse ($k_H/k_D$ = 0.52-0.69). A concerted mechanism is proposed with a backside attack transition state (TS) on the basis of the secondary inverse DKIEs and the variation trends of the $k_H/k_D$ values with X. The degree of bond formation in the TS is really extensive taking into account the very small values of the DKIEs. The steric effects of the two ligands on the rates are extensively discussed for the aminolyses of the chlorophosphate-type substrates on the basis of the Taft equation.

  • In this work, we researched static and dynamic characteristics concern to hydraulic regulator control process and parameter setting, which is used on liquid rocket engine regulation. The hydraulic regulator of 8K14 "SCUD" 9D21 engine is analyzed and on the basis of the developed mathematical modeling the analysis of response time and certification on automatic control accuracy is carried out. In this process, we find out specific design configuration of needle valve flow section that effects on pressure regulation performance.

  • In this study, a Coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) and Finite Element Analysis(FEA) method are used to predict and evaluate the performance of an automotive shock absorber. Averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved by the SIMPLE method and the RNG $k-\varepsilon$ is used to model turbulence. CFD analysis is carried out for different intake valve deflections and piston velocities. The force exerted on the valve in each valve deflection is obtained. The valve deflection-force relationship is investigated by the FEA method. The force exerted on the valve in each piston velocity is obtained with a combination of CFD and FEA results. Numerical results are compared with the experimental data and have shown agreement. Dependence of valve deflection as a function of piston velocity is investigated. Effects of hydraulic oil temperature change on valve behavior are also studied.

  • A large single crystal of AlN was grown by PVT (Physical Vapor Transport) method. The AlN crystal shaped hexagonal of the diameter of about 46 mm and the thickness of 7.6 mm was grown using 33 mm seed crystal which was grown and made by ourselves. We tried to find out repeatable growth possibility for AlN crystal growth and then to evaluate the repeatability of the growth condition of the temperature of $1950{\sim}2100^{\circ}C$ and the ambient pressure of 0.1~1 atm.

  • The effect of carbon number of hydrocarbon used as a carbon source in the production of cellular lipid of Rhodotorula sp. and its fatty acid composition were investigated. Using Rhodotorula sp. on n-tetradecane and n-hexadecane whose carbon numbers are even, fermentation was carried out in a jar fermentor of 2 liter-capacity at $28^{\circ}C$, with pH range of 4.0∼4.6 and at oxygen flowing rate of 0. 4 vvm and agitation velocity of 1000 rpm. Drying the produced cell after completion of fermentation, cellular lipid was extracted from the cell using soxhlet extractor and examined its fatty acid composition by gas-liquid chromatography. Cellular lipid content in the cell produced on n-tetradecane and n-hexadecane were 12.0 % and 25,8 % on the basis of dry cell weight, respectively and their fatty acids were mostly even numbered in carbon number.

  • This paper presents a new type of absolute rotary encoder system based on the affine n-digit N-ary gray code. A brief comparison of the existing encoder systems is carried out in terms of resolution, encoding and decoding principles and number of sensor heads needed. Using the proposed method, two different types of encoder disks are designed, namely, color-coded disk and grayscale coded disk. The designed coded disk pattern is used to manufacture 3 digit 3 ary and 2 digit 5 ary grayscale coded disks respectively. The manufactured disk is used with the light emitter and photodetector assembly to design the entire encode system. Experimental analysis is done on the designed prototype with LabVIEW platform for data acquisition. A comparison of the designed system is done with the traditional binary gray code encoder system in terms of resolution, disk diameter, number of tracks and data acquisition system. The resolution of the manufactured system is 3 times higher than the conventional system. Also, for a 5 digit 5 ary coded encoder system, a resolution approximately 100 times better than the conventional binary system can be achieved. In general, the proposed encoder system gives $(N/2)^n$ times better resolution compared with the traditional gray coded disk. The miniaturization in diameter of the coded disk can be achieved compared to the conventional binary systems.
