  • We investigate the mass and energy of erupting plasma observed in X-rays and EUV, which is associated with a coronal mass ejection (CME) and an X-class flare. The erupting plasma was observed by both the X-ray telescope (XRT) on Hinode and the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on Solar Dynamic Observatory (SDO). We estimate the emission measures of the erupting plasma using a differential emission measure method. The plasma erupts with a loop-like structure in X-ray and EUV. We estimate the mass of erupting plasma assuming a cylinder structure. In addition, we estimate the radiative loss, thermal conduction, thermal, and kinetic energies of the eruptive hot plasma. We find that the thermal conduction timescale is much shorter than the duration of the eruption. This result implies that additional heating during the eruption may be required to explain the hot plasma observations in X-rays.

  • A rational and straightforward method is introduced for developing continuum models of large platelike periodic lattice structures based on energy equivalence, The procedure for developing continuum models involves using existing finite element matrices in calculating strain and kinetic energies of a repeating cell. The equivalent continuum plate properties are obtained from the direct comparison of the reduced stiffness and mass matrices for continuum and lattice plates. Numerical results prove that the method developed in this paper shows very good agreement with other well-recognized methods.

  • Ethylammonium-layered aluminosilicates intercalates were prepared by ion exchange reaction between the layered silicates with different layer changes density of 0.32∼0.41 e per unit formula and ethylammonium chloride. A kinetic study on the thermal deintercalation of the ethylammonium-layered silicate intercalates was carried out by range of 350℃ to 480℃ (heating rate of 10℃/min). Based on the Ozawa's method, the activation energies of the thermal deintercalation reaction were estimated as 171.2∼133.0 kJ/mol, which increase linearly with the layer charge densities.

  • 모든 건설재료에서 치수의 한계가 있다. 현수선교나 사장교인 경우 강재를 사용하면 최대지간 거리 $5000m{\sim}7000m$ 가 가능하나, 유리섬유 복합재료를 시용하면 이의 2 배, 탄소섬유 복합재료를 사용하면 이의 3 배가 가능하다. 지간 거리가 20,000m 가 되면 가장 중요한 하중은 바람하중이다. 복합재료의 여러 장점 때문에 거대한 규모의 건물, 교량등 구조물이 건설될 때 구조 기술자는 풍(바람)하중을 구하고 다룰 수 있어야 한다. 이 논문에서는 구조 기술자가 풍 하중을 구할 수 있게 기초 이론과 기본기술을 제공하고 있다.

  • In this study, vibrations of an electric motor are analyzed when the motor has the interaction between mechanical and electromagnetic behaviors. For this vibration analysis a 3-phase 8-pole brushless DC motor is selected. Vibrations of the motor are influenced by coupled electromechanical characteristics. The variation of air-gap induced by vibration has an influence on the inductance of the motor coil. To analyze dynamic characteristics of the rotor, we studied inductance by the variation of an air-gap. After obtaining the kinetic, potential and magnetic energies for the motor, the equations of motion are derived by using Lagrange's equation. By applying the Newmark time integration method to the equations, the dynamic responses for the displacements and currents are computed.

  • The experimental method of measuring dynamic properties of structures was presented. The method is based on the flexural wave propagation characteristics. Using the method, change in structural dynamic properties due to damage is measured. The crack has much more significant impact on the strain energy than the inertial effects. From this, the sensitivity of the dynamic stiffness on the crack location is estimated by calculating the strain energy. When the wave propagates, the strain and kinetic energies shows cyclic changed over space. The crack that occurred at locations where the wave energy is in the form of the potential energy affected most significantly the wave propagation characteristics. The effects of crack location on the wave propagation were used to determine the crack location.

  • This study has been carried out to investigate the non-isothermal behaviors and kinetic parameter of calcium carbonate by different thermal analysis methods. At the heating rate of $10^{\circ}C$/min, the onset calcination temperature, the peak and final temperatures of calcium carbonate were $612^{\circ}C$, $748^{\circ}C$, and $890^{\circ}C$ respectively. As the heating rate of the calcium carbonate increased from $5^{\circ}C$/min to $20^{\circ}C$/min, the peak temperature increased from $719^{\circ}C$ to $782^{\circ}C$. The activation energies of the calcium carbonate calculated by the methods of Kissinger and Freeman-Carroll were 40.15 kcal/mol and 43.47 kcal/mol, respectively.

  • An improved shear deformable thin-walled curved beam theory to overcome the drawback of currently available beam theories is newly proposed for the spatially coupled free vibration and elastic analysis. For this, the displacement field considering the shear deformation effects is presented by introducing displacement parameters defined at the centroid and shear center axes. Next the elastic strain and kinetic energies considering the shear effects due to the shear forces and the restrained warping torsion are rigorously derived. Then the equilibrium equations are consistently derived for curved beams with non-symmetric thin-walled sections. It should be noticed that this formulation can be easily reduced to the warping-free beam theory by simply putting the sectional properties associated with warping to zero for curved beams with L- or T-shaped sections. Finally in order to illustrate the validity and the accuracy of this study, finite element solutions using the isoparametric curved beam elements are presented and compared with those in available references and ABAQUS's shell elements.

  • Isotropic pitch based carbon fibers were exposed to isothermal oxidation in carbon dioxide gas to study the activation kinetics under the temperature of 800~$1100^{\circ}C$. The kinetic equation $f=1-{\exp}(-at^b)$ was introduced and the constant b was obtained in the range of 0.92~1.25. It was shown that the activated carbon fiber shows the highly specific surface area (SSA) when the constant b comes close to 1. The activation kinetics were evaluated by the reaction-controlling regime (RCR) according to changes of the apparent activation energy with changes of the conversion. It was observed that the activation energies increase from 47.6 to 51.2 kcal/mole with the conversion increasing from 0.2 to 0.8. It was found that the pores of the activated carbon fiber under the chemical reaction were developed well through the fiber.

  • Assuming that particles can be accelerated to high energies via diffusive shock acceleration process at the accretion shocks formed by the infalling flow toward the clusters of galaxies, we have calculated the expected spectrum of high-energy protons from the cosmological ensemble of the cluster accretion shocks. The model with Jokipii diffusion limit could explain the observed cosmic ray spectrum near $10^{19}eV$ with reasonable parameters and models if about $10^{-4}$ of the infalling kinetic energy can be injected into the intergalactic space as the high energy particles.
