Numerical simulation has been carried out to investigate the influence of radial temperature gradient on the Taylor Vortex flow. Varying the Grashof number, we study the detailed flow and temperature fields. The current numerical results show good agreement with the experimental results currently available. It turns out that wavy spiral vortices are generated by increasing temperature gradient. We classify flow patterns for various Grashof numbers based on the characteristics of flow fields and spiral vortices. The correlation between Grashof number with wave number shows that the spiral angle and size of Taylor vortices increase with increasing temperature gradient. Temperature gradient does not have a great influence on the heat transfer rate of the cylinder surfaces.

Several observational results show a tighter pitch angle at wavelengths of optical and near-infrared than those that are associated with star formation, which is in agreement with the prediction of the density wave theory. In my recent numerical studies, the dependence of the shock positions relative to the potential minima is due to the tendency that stronger shocks form farther downstream. This causes a systematic variation of the perpendicular Mach number, with radius and makes the pitch angle of the gaseous arms smaller than that of the stellar arms, which supports the prediction of the density-wave theory, independently. However, some observations still give controversial results which show similar pitch angles at wavelengths, and there is no statistical study comparing observations and numerical models directly. By analyzing optical image of disk galaxies in the Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey (CGS), I measured the physical values of stellar and gaseous arms such as their strength, length, and pitch angles. For direct comparison with numerical results, I analyzed more than 30 additional numerical models with varying the initial parameters in model galaxies. In this talk, I will present results both of observational and numerical samples and discuss the physical properties of spiral structures based on the density-wave theory.

In this paper, two novel compact microstrip bandstop filters using complimentary split ring resonators(CSRRs) and spiral resonators is proposed. The first one is the bandstop filter using an array of CSRRs etched on the center line of a microstrip. The bandstop is due to the presence of negative effective permittivity and positive permeability near resonant frequency which prevent the wave propagation. The second on is the bandstop filter using an array of spiral resonators etched on the center line of a microstrip. The bandstop is due to the self-resonance of spiral circuit. We have achieved controllable resonance frequency and bandwidth, super compact dimension, low insertion losses in the passband and high level of rejection in the stopband with sharp cutoff. The electrical sizes of two proposed filter are very small. Additionally, they can be easily fabricated and compatible with MMIC or PCB technology.

An effect of a spiral turbulent ring, so-called Shchelkin spiral, on a detonation performance was studied experimentally for acetylene and oxygen mixture. A couple of dynamic pressure transducers were used to calculate a detonation wave velocity by a time difference between two pressure peaks. In addition, impulse was measured by a load cell and the impulse was used to analyze the spiral effect on the detonation performance. A CFD analysis was adopted to calculate mass flow rates of the propellants and the minimum filling time. The maximum velocity and pressure were measured at the equivalence ratio of 2.4, and the measured values showed similar trend to C-J conditions calculated from CEA. For the shorter chamber with the short spiral, the maximum detonation velocity was appeared. In contrast, the longer chamber without the spiral showed the maximum thrust performance.

The formation of diverse spiral waves was studied in a polyacrylamide gel membrane with ruthenium(4-vinyl-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine)bis(2,2'-bipyridine)bis(hexafluorophosphate) by a gas-free Belousov-Zhabotinisky (BZ) reaction system containing 1,4-cyclohexanedione (1,4-CHD). The gel membrane was found to be receptive for observing propagating waves since a clearer wave-train is obtained during a long reaction time without any disturbance from the immobilized metal catalyst which can be dissolved into the highly acidic solution of the BZ system. The distinctive waves in the system basically depend on both $BrO_3$ and 1,4-CHD in the initial phase, and are influenced by the intensity of illumination of visible light.

Current distributions are the basis of analyzing and designing the antenna. In this paper, a method of deriving the current distribution of a spiral shaped thin wire scattere is proposed when plane wave is incident on it. The calculated results are also shown for severla spiral sizes and incidence angles selected. For numerical calculation, the method of point matching is used with a cubic B-spline function as a basis function.

A new method to reduce the size of microwave amplifiers spiral-shaped defected ground structure(Spiral-DGS) is proposed. A microstrip line having Spiral-DGS on the ground plane produces increased slow-wave factor and electrical length for the fixed physical length. In addition, it provides an excellent rejection characteristic for a finite frequency band like band rejection filters. The rejection band is used for rejecting harmonic components of amplifiers. The reduced microstrip line lengths in matching networks by Spiral-DGS are 39 % and 44 % of the original ones in input and output matching networks, respectively. It is shown that the measured S-parameters of the reduced amplifier agree well with those of the original amplifier. The measured second harmonic of the reduced amplifier is much less than that of the original amplifier by at least 10 dB. The same technique is applied to reject the third harmonic using the proper Spiral-DGS for the third harmonic frequency. The measured third harmonic is smaller than that of the original amplifier by 25 dB.
