This paper presents a numerical investigation of the influences of various non-uniform tip clearances on the performance and flow field in a centrifugal compressor. Numerical simulations were conducted for three centrifugal compressor impellers in which the tip clearance height varied linearly from the leading edge to the trailing edge. The numerical result was compared with the experimental data for validation. Although the performance improved for low tip clearances, a smaller tip clearance at the trailing edge reduced the overall tip leakage flow more effectively than a smaller tip clearance at the leading edge. Therefore, a smaller tip clearance at the trailing edge lowered the mixing loss caused by interactions between the tip leakage flow and the main passage flow.

The combination of replaceable and repairable properties in structures has introduced new approach called "Low Damage Design Structures". These structural systems are designed in such a way that through self-centering, primary members and specific connections neither suffer damage nor experience permanent deformations after being exposed to severe earthquakes. The purpose of this study is the seismic assessment of steel moment resisting frames with the aid of rigid rocking cores. To this end, three steel moment resisting frames of 4-, 8-, and 12-story buildings with and without rocking cores were developed. The nonlinear static analysis and incremental dynamic analysis were performed by considering the effects of the vertical and horizontal components of 16 strong ground motions, including far-fault and near-fault arrays. The results reveal that rocking systems benefit from better seismic performance and energy dissipation compared to moment resisting frames and thus structures experience a lower level of damage under higher intensity measures. The analyses show that the interstory drift in structures equipped with stiff rocking cores is more uniform in static and dynamic analyses. A uniform interstory drift distribution leads to a uniform distribution of the bending moment and a reduction in the structure's total weight and future maintenance costs.

In this paper, an unequal power divider based on adjusting electrical length of uniform transmission line is presented. This divider consists of three uniform transmission lines and one isolation resistor and have the different port impedances of input and output. The feature of proposed divider can changed the power dividing ratio to adjust only electrical length of uniform transmission lines. To verify the feasibility of proposed power divider, two divider circuits are designed, one is 1:2 power dividing ratio divider with $60{\Omega}$ uniform transmission line and $40{\Omega}$ input port impedances and $45{\Omega}$ output port impedances, the performance data were measured the insertion losses of 1.7 dB/ 5.0 dB, return losses of more than -30 dB and isolation of more than -35 dB. The other is 1:4 power dividing ratio divider with $40{\Omega}$ uniform transmission line and $50{\Omega}$ input port impedances and $75{\Omega}$ output port impedances, the performance data were measured the insertion losses of 1.3 dB/ 6.8 dB, return losses of more than -12 dB and isolation of more than -19 dB. The measured performance data agreed well with the simulated results.

The existing research on the QoS of the Streaming video system(SVS) adjust the video stream being sent from the network perspective, the focus is to prevent data loss and delay. The other hand, changing the quality of the video stream will not receive the guaranteed QoS from the perspective of the users who want uniform quality. In order to solve these problems, this paper applied to ensure that the benefits in the amount of bits per frame occurs Encoder CBR streaming video is kept constant and uniform picture quality advantages of VBR streaming video VBR to CBR Encoder and CBR to VBR Decoder, Video was designed to control the playback stream for And to ensure a uniform quality of the user based on the design and implementation of uniform quality guaranteed SVS. PSNR evaluated for several characteristics of the sample video to demonstrate the superiority of the SVS ensure uniform quality, the proposed Performance evaluation of the SVS ensure uniform quality CBW the ABR from 100% to ensure uniform image quality from 85% to environmental excellence is proved.

The experimental study for the temperature uniformity on the wafer using liquid-vapor phase heat transfer mechanism is performed. For the experiment, the heater plate which is consist of stainless steel container, working fluid and electrical heater is designed, manufactured and tested at the range of 600 to $850^{\circ}C$. The results showed that the phase change type heater plate was much more uniform and stable temperature on the heater plate surface and wafer than the uniform heat flux type heater plate at the atmospheric condition. Also, the results of 300 mm outer diameter of heater plate showed that the same temperature uniformity compared with 230 mm.

A low bit rate speech coder based on the non-uniform sampling technique is proposed. The non-uniform sampling technique is based on the detection of inflection points (IP). A speech block is processed by the IP detector, and the detected IP pattern is compared with entries of the IP database. The address of the closest member of the database is transmitted with the energy of the speech block. In the receiver, the decoder reconstructs the speech block using the received address and the energy information of the block. As results, the coder shows fixed data rate contrary to the existing speech coders based on the non-uniform sampling. Through computer simulation, the usefulness of the proposed technique is shown. The SNR performance of the proposed method is approximately 5.27 dB with the data rate of 1.5 kbps.

Fireworks Algorithm (FWA) is a relatively novel swarm-based metaheuristic algorithm for global optimization. To solve the low-efficient local searching problem and convergence of the FWA, this paper presents a Variable Amplitude Coefficient Fireworks Algorithm with Uniform Local Search Operator (namely VACUFWA). Firstly, the explosive amplitude is used to adjust improving the convergence speed dynamically. Secondly, Uniform Local Search (ULS) enhances exploitation capability of the FWA. Finally, the ULS and Variable Amplitude Coefficient operator are used in the VACUFWA. The comprehensive experiment carried out on 13 benchmark functions. Its results indicate that the performance of VACUFWA is significantly improved compared with the FWA, Differential Evolution, and Particle Swarm Optimization.

Proposed chip waveforms are classified into 2 types: uniform chip waveforms with uniform envelope and non-uniform chip waveforms with non-uniform envelope. It has confirmed that the similarity of the approximated analytical chip waveforms is compared using chip waveforms, envelope, phase, correlation, and bandwidth properties.

The flow characteristics on a supersonic inlet with bleeding system by changing angles of attack and channel length conditions are studied by computational 3D turbulent flow analysis. A compressible upwind flux difference splitting Navier-Stokes method with $k-{\omega}$ turbulence model is used to analysis the inlet flowfield. More non-uniform flowfields are shown at the AIP when angle of attack becomes bigger and bigger. These non-uniform flowfield works the performance aggravating factors of the supersonic engine. Non-uniform flowfield by changing channel length at the various angle of attack are investigated.

This paper focuses on the single stage and multistage performance characteristics of centrifugal mixed flow submersible borewell pump. This study reveals that the performance of single stage pump is higher than that of multistage pumps. The head, input power and efficiency of single stage pump are higher than the per stage head, per stage input power and efficiency of multistage pumps. This study is divided into three parts. In the first part, five prototype pumps were made in single stage and multistage construction and the performance tests were conducted. In the second part, numerical validation has been done for different turbulence models and grid sizes. k-Omega SST model has been selected for the performance simulation and was validated with the performance of the test pump with static pressure tappings. In the third part, single and three stage pump performance were simulated numerically and compared with experimental results. The detailed analysis of pressure and velocity distributions reveals the difference in performance of single and three stage pump, due to non-uniform flow and difference in averaged flow velocities at the subsequent impeller inlets except the 1st stage impeller inlet.
