The magnitude of evanescent modes in terms of dynamics is investigated in case that the transformation of water waves is predicted using the linear wave theory. In other words, derivation is made of both the kinetic and potential wave energies of evanescent modes as welt as propagating modes. The evanescent modes consist of compound components of propagating and evanescent modes, those of identically equal evanescent modes, and those of identically different evanescent modes. The wave energy per a horizontal distance decreases exponentially with the distance.

An experimental study was carried out in a vertical channel with square heat source by visualization equipment with laser apparatus. The image processing system consists of one commercial image board slit into a personal computer and 2-dimensional sheet light by Argon-Ion Laser with cylindrical lens and flow picture recording system. Instant simultaneous velocity vectors at whole field were measured by 2-D PIV system which adopted two-frame grey-level cross correlation algorithm. Heat source was uniform heat flux(5W). The obtained results show various flow patterns such as the kinetic energy distribution and the turbulent kinetic energy distribution.

Radiation effects on materials are inherently multiscale phenomena in view of the fact that various processes spanning a broad range of time and length scales are involved. A multiscale modeling approach to embrittlement of pressure vessel steels is presented here. The approach includes an investigation of the mechanisms of defect accumulation, microstructure evolution and the corresponding effects on mechanical properties. An understanding of these phenomena is required to predict the behavior of structural materials under irradiation. We used molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at an atomic scale to study the evolution of high-energy displacement cascade reactions. The MD simulations yield quantitative information on primary damage. Using a database of displacement cascades generated by the MD simulations, we can estimate the accumulation of defects over diffusional length and time scales by applying kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. The evolution of the local microstructure under irradiation is responsible for changes in the physical and mechanical properties of materials. Mechanical property changes in irradiated materials are modeled by dislocation dynamics simulations, which simulate a collective motion of dislocations that interact with the defects. In this paper, we present a multi scale modeling methodology that describes reactor pressure vessel embrittlement in a light water reactor environment.

Objectives The purpose of this report was to study the circulation of meridian WiGi, YoungGi, from the viewpoint of manual medicine. Methods First, the Korean Medical approach analyzes documents about the circulation of meridian WiGi, YoungGi, and the biomechanical approach is to analyze documents about kinetic force and kinematic movement. The third inherent energy approach is to analyze documents about craniosacral rhythm and visceral motility. Finally, it is to study the correlation between the circulation of meridian WiGi, YoungGi, and the viewpoint of biomechanics force and movement, the inherent energy of manual medicine. Results Meridian WiGi is fast, powerful, and changeful. It circulates through the head and extremities in the daytime and visceral organs at night. The deviation pelvis and distorted thoracic cage create kinetic force and kinematic movement. Meridian YoungGi is very small and soft energy and circulates meridians and visceral organs permanently. Craniosacral rhythm and visceral motility radiate continuously from cranial and visceral organs to the whole body. Conclusions Circulation of meridian WiGi is closely related to the biomechanical approach. In addition, circulation of meridian YoungGi is closely related to the inherent energy approach.

In this study, We have investigated the kinetics on the char-$CO_2$ gasification reaction. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) experiments were carried out for char-$CO_2$ catalytic gasification of an Indonesian Roto lignite. $Na_2CO_3$, $K_2CO_3$, $CaCO_3$ and dolomite were selected as catalyst which was physical mixed with coal. The char-$CO_2$ gasification reaction showed rapid an increase of carbon conversion rate at 60 vol% $CO_2$ and 7 wt% $Na_2CO_3$ mixed with coal. At the isothermal conditions range from $750^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$, the carbon conversion rates increased as the temperature increased. Three kinetic models for gas-solid reaction including the shrinking core model (SCM), volumetric reaction model (VRM) and modified volumetric reaction model (MVRM) were applied to the experimental data against the measured kinetic data. The gasification kinetics were suitably described by the MVRM model for the Roto lignite. The activation energies for each char mixed with $Na_2CO_3$ and $K_2CO_3$ were found a 67.03~77.09 kJ/mol and 53.14~67.99 kJ/mol.

In this study, we have investigated the kinetics on the char-CO₂ catalytic gasification reaction. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) experiments were carried out for char-CO₂ catalytic gasification of an Indonesian Kideco sub-bituminous. Na₂CO₃ and K₂CO₃ were selected as catalysts which were physically mixed with coal. The char-CO₂ catalytic gasification reaction showed a rapid increase of carbon conversion rate at 850 ℃, 60 vol% CO₂, and 7 wt% Na₂CO₃. At the isothermal conditions ranging from 750 ℃ to 900 ℃, the carbon conversion rates increased as the temperature increased. Four kinetic models for gas-solid reaction including the shrinking core model (SCM), random pore model (RPM), volumetric reaction model (VRM), and modified volumetric reaction model (MVRM) were applied to the experimental data against the measured kinetic data. The gasification kinetics were suitably described by the MVRM for the Kideco sub-bituminous. The activation energies for each char mixed with Na₂CO₃ and K₂CO₃ were found 55-71 kJ/mol and 69-87 kJ/mol.

An experimental investigation on the ultimate load and energy absorption of thin plates is presented, which enables the damage to ship involved in a collision to be estimated in terms of the lost kinetic energy. The derived formulae are based upon experimental analysis and compared with theoretical presentations published by some authors. A relationship is found between the absorbed energy and the volume of damaged steel plates.

Rockfall Protection fence is one of the most common rockfall Protection methods in Korea. If rockfall protection fences are required along the road or railway, their location, height and capacity, in terms of the maximum kinetic energy that they can absorb, should be specified. Within this paper, the best practice of rockfall barrier is introduced. Modern rockfall simulations as a means to define risks, protection requirements, dynamic loading and height of potential structures and selection of appropriate placement is presented. Technical possibilities of rockfall barriers and their actual limits are presented. Safety concepts based on probabilistic approaches are proposed. Recent studies peformed in other countries show that Flexible Barriers are also a feasible system to stop and retain debris flows. Finally an outlook onto further development is given.

Swirl flow has an impact on the stabilization of the flame by the recirculation flow, improvement of the combustion efficiency. The swirl flow in the gun type burner is created by the spinner which is inside the airtube that guide the combustion air. Burner has generally the combustion device composed electronic spark plug, injection nozzle, combustion device adaptor, and spinner. These inner components change the air flow behavior passing through airtube. So, this study analyzed exhaust flow characteristics of the gun type burner according to the ratio of airtube diameter. Turbulence characteristics by the spinner was mean velocity, turbulence intensity, kinetic energy, shear stress and flattness factor of the air flow of axial direction and tangential direction from the exit of the airtube.
