Coupled guided modes, proposed in various modified hollow hexagonal cavities each attached internally to a hexagon, were demonstrated by investigating the laser oscillations in semiconductor cavities. The mode spacing between two adjacent lasing peaks decreased as the size of the internal hexagon increased, due to the increased round-trip length of the coupled guided modes. The linear dependency of the inverse mode spacing to the calculated round-trip length strongly confirmed the lasing of the coupled guided modes. The proposed modes in common-sized external cavities showed resonance structure that could be adjusted widely by controlling the size of the internal hexagon.

This paper investigates the linear stability of reacting mixing layers with special emphasis on the existence of multiple unstable modes. The governing equations for laminar flows are from two-dimensional compressible boundary-layer equations. The chemistry is a finite rate single step irreversible reaction with Arrhenius kinetics. For the incompressible reacintg mixing layer with variable density. A necessary condition for instability has been derived. The condition requires that the angular momentum, not the vorticity, to have a maximum in the flow domain. New inflectional modes of instability are found to exist in the outer part of the mixing layer. For the compressible reacting mixing layer, supersonic unstable modes may exist in the abscence of a generalized inflection point. The outer modes at high Mach numbers in the reacting mixing layer are continuations of the inflectional modes of low Mach number flows. However, the generalized inflection point is less important at supersonic flows.

Cold Formed Steel members are widely used in today's construction industry. However the structural behavior of light gauge high strength cold formed steel sections characterized by various buckling modes are not yet fully understood. Because of their simple forming and easy connections, the commonly used cold formed sections for beams are C and Z. However both these sections suffer from certain buckling modes. To achieve much improved structural performance of cold formed sections for beams both in terms of strength and stiffness, it is important to either delay or completely eliminate their various modes of buckling. This paper presents various innovative sectional profiles and stiffening arrangements for cold formed steel beams which would successfully contribute in delaying or eliminating various modes of premature buckling, thus considerably improving the load carrying capacity as well as stiffness characteristics of such innovative cold formed sections compared to conventional cold formed steel sections commonly used for beams.

Total number of resonant modes in a microwave oven cavity may be maximized for a given frequency bandwidth to obtain more uniform power distribution by choosing proper size of the cavity. The total number of modes is calculated for a dielectrically loaded rectangular cavity and its size is suggested here for which the change in the number of modes is less sensitive to the change of dielectric layer thickness and its total number of modes is maximized in a given range of cavity sizes. A prove coupled rectangular cavity is constructed and the total existing modes are measured to see the change of modes depending on the dielectric layer thickness and the cavity size. Surface wave mode existing in the dielectric layer is confirmed by measuring Q and the input impedance of the cavity for this mode, which closely compares with the calculation.

It is normal practice to consider bending wave modes only, when one applies SEA (Statistical Energy Analysis) to ship structures because of complexities in SEA modeling and evaluation of coupling loss factors for inplane modes. According to the result of Tratch[1], the inplane wave modes becomes important for the analysis of a foundation structure as the distance from the source and receiver increases. In this paper, the effect of inplane wave modes on structure-borne noise propagation in ship structures is presented. It is shown that the inplane wave could increase the noise level more than 10 dB compared with the results without inplane wave modes at high frequency bands for compartments far from the source location.

This paper describes the identification of torsional modes and power oscillation modes including the inter-area modes and local modes of KEPCO using the proposed DFT analysis algorithm which is applied to the digitally recorded RMS values of power system variables such as steady-state measured active power, load angle and so on. As a result, the inter-area mode of 0.65Hz and the local modes of the three different generators were identified. In addition the torsional modes of two steam-turbo generators were analyzed by applying the DFT algorithm. Thus, this paper clearly shows the availability of the proposed DFT algorithm that can analyze the digitally recorded effective values measured from the equipment such as PMU of DSM.

Electrospray is a method of atomizing fluid using high voltage supply and capable of generating continuous flow and coherent size of droplets. Electrical system and properties of fluids has enabled electrospray to have various spray modes. However, its studies have been confined only in Cone jet, which is more stable and easier to manipulate droplets' size than other spraying modes. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate and compare other spraying modes based on experimental parameters and physical properties of fluids. This research paper identified nine different spray modes. It was found out that Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) is proportional to flow rate of fluids and maximum difference among spray modes was 1.7 times. On the other hand, SMD standard deviation had low variations on specific flow rates of fluids. Pulsed jet mode recorded the largest SMD standard deviation, while Spindle recorded the lowest.

This paper investigates the linear stability of both uniform and non-uniform density plane mixing layers with special emphasis on the effect of the wake component in the velocity profile. Velocity and density profiles for laminar flows are obtained from analytic profiles. Mixing layers with wakes have two generalized inflection points and two unstable modes-sinuous and varicose modes. For uniform density mixing layers, sinuous modes are more unstable than varicose modes, which shows wakes will be destabilized by sinuous modes. For non-uniform density mixing layers with high density in high speed flows, sinuous modes are more unstable than varicose modes. For non-uniform density mixing layers with high density in low speed flows, varicose modes can be more unstable than sinuous modes.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of one-handed interaction modes for supporting the dead zone that users must be difficulty in performing the touch manipulation with only one hand. For the purpose, this study analyzed two existing one-handed modes in iPhone and Android smartphones, and proposed and implemented two additional one-handed modes. In order to investigate effectiveness of the one-handed modes, we performed the experiment that compared normal touch mode with the four one-handed modes. Experimental results showed that all one-handed modes required more time than normal touch mode because of the time requiring in both mode change and recognition. However, the participants had difficulty in manipulating continuous touches at dead zone area with only normal touch. Moreover, the subjective satisfaction was high in one-handed modes thanks to touch convenience and smooth transition effects in mode change. In special, the one-handed mode at iPhone was the most effective out of the tested modes.

Most products are indeed governed by multiple failure modes. However, there are few cases in which reliability analysis applies to only one failure mode at a time. Furthermore, reliability data do not include information about failure modes, or the reliability analysis is performed using a representative failure mode. The Weibull shape parameter for failure modes is more important than one for products in the reliability qualification test. This paper presents reliability analysis methods for a mechanical component with multiple failure modes. These methods include the competing failure modes (CFM) method and the mixed Weibull method. Pneumatic cylinder test data with three failure modes are presented to estimate the shape parameter for each separate failure mode. In addition, reliability measures (B10 life, characteristic life) of the pneumatic cylinder considering three failure modes were compared with those assuming a single failure mode.
