Three different kinds of brake discs including two coated brake discs and one steel disc were tested under the same experimental conditions on a reduced scale braking test bench. Braking test bench was specially designed to analyse thermo-mechanical and frictional behaviors of two sizes of brake discs in stop and hold braking modes. And Plasma spray coating technique was used to coat ceramic powder on the discs. In the test four commercial brake pads were coupled with discs. Ceramic coated discs had shown good stability in friction coefficient at high speed and high energy braking conditions. But they caused large pad mass wear loss compared with the steel disc. It was shown that thermal barrier effect in ceramic coated discs adjusted the thermal partition between pad and disc. For a steel disc, it had shown fluctuating friction coefficient at high speed but a fittie pad mass wear loss compared with ceramic coated discs.

This research is about slurry wear of SM45C and SUS304, which using standard sand and KUM river sand. The results are as follows ; 1. Mass loss rates of both standard sand and KUM river sand were linearly increased as increasement of time and velocity. 2. The average diameter of sand from relatively, less wear rate and portion of larger particles. 3. Wear resistance was linear with time and velocity of liquid jet regardless of type of sand. Also, it was able to evaluate with the formula, $HV^2$/E calibrated with n, the velocity index. 4. The wear surface in liquid jet experiment was smooth. The maximum wear depth was observed at the location 2~4mm apart from the center in the condition of $90^{\circ}$ of collision angle 6mm of nozzle diameter, and 20mm of collision distance. The sectional shape in radial appeared as 'W'shape.

The action of rainwater on reinforced concrete walls has led to an erosion phenomenon. The erosion is very apparent when the walls are inclined. This phenomenon is studied on a real site characterized by different architectural forms. The site dates back to the seventies; it was designed by the architect, modeler of concrete, Oscar Nie Meyer. On this site, the erosion has damaged the cover of the reinforcements and reduced its depth. In this research work, a method of quantification of the erosion is developed. Using this method, the amount of mass loss by erosion was measured on imprints taken from the site. The results are expressed by the rate of mass loss by erosion; they are associated to the height and the inclination of the walls. Moreover, laboratory analysis was carried out on samples taken from the site. From this study, it is recommended to consider the erosion, in any building code, to determine the cover thickness.

One important aspect of the late stage stellar evolution is the mass loss processes, where a significant amount of stellar material will be returned to the interstellar space to be used for stars of the next generation. Raman scattered O VI and He II by atomic hydrogen in symbiotic stars and young planetary nebulae are found to be excellent tools to investigate the mass loss processes and estimate the mass loss rate. These features appear near hydrogen Balmer emission lines due to the huge cross section in the vicinity of Lyman resonance transitions. With the capability of high spectral resolution and broad spectral coverage, BOES is an ideal instrument to perform Raman spectroscopy of these objects. In this talk, a cursory overview of our research activities on Raman spectroscopy of symbiotics and PNe using the BOES is presented.

In this study, a new quantitative analytical method has been developed for the rapid determination of acylcarnitines and amino acids in human blood using electrospray ionization / tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS). Acylarmitines and amino acids were analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry after conversion to their butylesters through treatment with 3N butanolic hydrogen chloride. Acylcrnitines were analyzed using precursor 85 ion scan and alanine, valine, leucine/isoleucine, methionine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid were analyzed using neutral loss 102 scan, ornitine and citrulline were analyzed neutral loss 119 scan, glycine was analyzed using neutral loss 56 scan, arginine was analyzed using neutral loss 161 scan and argininosuccinic acid was analyzed product ion 459 scan. This method reduced sample preparation time compared to that with conventional amino acid analyzer and liquid chromatography, with high sensitivity and good reproducibility.

The effect of tip clearance height on the three-dimensional flow and aerodynamic loss in the wake region of a high-turning turbine rotor cascade has been investigated with a miniature cone-type five-hole probe. Distributions of velocity magnitude, secondary velocity vectors, and total-pressure loss coefficient are presented for three tip gap-to-span ratios of h/s = 0.0, 0.5 and 1.0 percent. The result shows that with the increment of h/s, tip leakage vortex tends to be intensified and aerodynamic loss due to the leakage vortex is increased as well. In the case of h/s = 1.0 percent, aerodynamic loss in the tip-leakage flow region is found dominant in comparison with that in the passage vortex region. With increasing h/s, mass-averaged secondary loss coefficient has a greater portion in the mass-averaged total-pressure loss coefficient.

The role of empirical equation to predict the performance of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell is important. The activation, ohmic and mass transfer losses were separated in a polarization curve, and the curve fitting according to each region was performed using Kim's model and Hao's model. Changes of each loss were compared according to operation variables of the temperature, pressure, oxygen concentration and membrane thickness. The existing model showed a good fitting convergence, but less fitting accuracy in the separated loss region. A new model using the convergence coefficient was suggested to improve the accuracy of performance prediction of fuel cells of which results were demonstrated.

We have investigated the photophysics of the acetone radical cation in the vacuum ultraviolet energy region by multiphoton ionization combined with time-of-flight mass spectrometry in a cluster beam. We have found that the loss of methyl radical from the acetone radical cations is remarkably suppressed at 10.5 eV when they are solvated by a few neutral acetone molecules. The cluster ion mass spectra obtained by nanosecond and picosecond laser pulses reveal that there are intermolecular processes, occurring in several tens of picoseconds, which are responsible for the survival of the acetone cations in clusters. This remarkable solvation effect on the yield of the methyl radical loss from the acetone cation can be rationalized by the intracluster vibrational energy redistribution and the self-catalyzed enolization which compete with the methyl radical loss process.

Mass transfer characteristics during osmotic dehydration of carrots were studied as functions of immersion temperature and time, and sugar and salt concentrations. The effect of osmotic dehydration on the degree of browning of air-dried carrots was also evaluated. Increasing the immersion temperature and time, sugar concentration, and salt addition increased water loss, sugar gain, molality and rate of dehydration. The water loss and increases in solids, and molality were rapid in the beginning of the process and then increased slowly during remainder of the process. Increasing 1 or 2% salt concentration in the 40$^{\circ}$Brix sugar solution at 6$0^{\circ}C$ increased water loss and solid gain. Salt addition was not able to significantly affected on water loss and solid gain compare to temperature (40～8$0^{\circ}C$) and sugar concentration (20～60$^{\circ}$Brix) changes due to the low salt concentration. A minimum degree of browning of the air-dried carrots (O.D. = 0.048) could be achieved using binary solutions (40$^{\circ}$Brix sugar solution with 2% salt addition) with 24 min of immersion time compared to control (O.D. = 1.308) or blanching with 24 min of immersion time (O.D. = 0.174).
