Metal matrix composites(MMCs) reinforced with hard particles have many potential application in aerospace structures, auto parts, semiconductor package, heat resistant panels, wear resistant materials and so on. In this work, the effect of SiC partioel sizes(50 and 100 ${\mu}m$) and additional elements such as Si, Cu and Ti on the microstructure and the wear property of $Al-5Mg-X(Si,Cu,Ti)/SiC_p$ composites produced by pressureless infiltration method have been investigated using optical microscopy, scanning eletron microcopy(SEM) with EDS(energy dispersive spectrometry), hardness test, X-ray diffractometer(XRD) and wear test. In present study, the sound $Al-5Mg-X(Si,Cu,Ti)/SiC_p$(50 and 100 ${\mu}m$) composites were fabricated by pressureless infiltration method. The $Al-5Mg-0.3Si-O.1Cu-O.1Ti/SiC_p$ composite with $50 {\mu}m$ size of SiC particle has higher hardness and better wear property than any other composite with $100{\mu}m$ size of SiC particle produced by pressureless infiltration method. The hardness and wear property of $Al-5Mg/SiC_p$(50 and 100 ${\mu}m$) composites were enhanced by the addition of Si, Cu and Ti in Al-5%Mg matrix alloy.

Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of perovskite materials such as La modified $Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3$ ceramics and $Pb(Zn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$ single crystals were investigated for cryogenic capacitor and actuator applications. Enhanced extrinsic contributions resulted in piezoelectric coefficient (d33) as high as 250 pC/N at 30 K, superior to that of PZT ($d_{33}$ ~ 100 pC/N). This cryogenic property enhancement was associated with retuning the MPB (or cryogenic temperatures. PZN-PT single crystals exhibited dramatic property improvements such as $d_{33}$ > 500 pC/N at 30 K as a result of an engineered domain state.

This study was carried out to use carbonized medium density fiberboard (MDF) for the replacement of sound absorbing material. Carbonization treatment was performed to improve sound absorption property for MDF at carbonizing temperatures of $500^{\circ}C$, $700^{\circ}C$, $900^{\circ}C$ and $1100^{\circ}C$. As the carbonization temperature increased, the results of the observation by scanning electron microscope (SEM) demonstrated that the fibers exhibited a more compressed morphology within the surface section of the MDF than those within the middle section of MDF. As the carbonizing temperature increased, the cavity increased. The sound absorption coefficient increased between the temperatures of $500^{\circ}C$ and $900^{\circ}C$, but decreased at a temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$. The sound absorption properties of the carbonized MDF and the non-carbonized MDF were compared. The maximum sound absorption coefficient of the carbonized MDF was 12.38%. This was almost double of the value of the non-carbonized MDF.

In the paper we show that some operators defined on L$^1$($\mu$) and on C(K) into Banach space with the RNP have the lifting property.

We consider the problem of characterizing the palindromic sequences ${\langle}c_{d-1},\;c_{d-2}\;,{\cdots},\;c_0\rangle$, $c_{d-1}{\neq}0$, having the property that for any $K{\in}\mathbb{N}$ there exists a number that is a palindrome simultaneously in K different bases, with ${\langle}c_{d-1},\;c_{d-2}\;,{\cdots},\;c_0\rangle$ being its digit sequence in one of those bases. Since each number is trivially a palindrome in all bases greater than itself, we impose the restriction that only palindromes with at least two digits are taken into account. We further consider a related problem, where we count only palindromes with a fixed number of digits (that is, d). The first problem turns out not to be very hard; we show that all the palindromic sequences have the required property, even with the additional point that we can actually restrict the counted palindromes to have at least d digits. The second one is quite tougher; we show that all the palindromic sequences of length d = 3 have the required property (and the same holds for d = 2, based on some earlier results), while for larger values of d we present some arguments showing that this tendency is quite likely to change.

The effects of quenching and tempering temperatures on the tensile, impact and corrosion properties of A487 alloy cast with different C contents of 0.16, 0.19 to 0.23 wt.% were examined. The impact tests were conducted at $25^{\circ}C$ and $-60^{\circ}C$ and the immersion test was performed using 3.5% NaCl solution for 14 days. The quenching temperature affected the mechanical properties of A487 alloy cast, while the magnitude of change varied depending on the C content. The increase in tempering temperature showed the typical trend of decreasing tensile strength and increasing impact properties. The change in quenching and tempering temperature in this study did not affect the corrosion properties of A487 alloy significantly. The change in mechanical and corrosion properties of A487 with different C contents was discussed based on the microstructural and fractographic observation.

Thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity were measured in the atrium of a swine heart. Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation in an atrium has rapidly emerged at the treatment of symptomatic reentrant arrhythmia associated with accessory pathway or Atrioventricular (AV) node conduction. The thermal properties of an atrium are definitely necessary for these treatments because, in thermal treatments, conductivity and diffusivity are significant factors in the relationship between the applied RF power and the resulting atrium temperature rise. Thermal properties were measured using a self-heated thermistor probe. Thermistor probes were inserted into the tissue of interest and were used to supply heat within the tissue as well as to monitor the temperature rise in the tissue. The measurements were performed at temperatures of 25, 37, $50^{\circ}C$. Atrium thermal conductivity ranged from 5.17$\pm$0.12 mW/cm$^{\circ}C$ at $25^{\circ}C$ to 5.33$\pm$0.08 mW/cm$^{\circ}C$ at $37^{\circ}C$. Atrium thermal diffusivity ranged from 0.00132$\pm$0.00007$cm^2$/sec at $25^{\circ}C$ to 0.00138$\pm$0.00003 $cm^2$/sec at $50^{\circ}C$. This paper also present the thermal property comparison of both chambers of a heart (ventricle and atria).

The notion of effective transport property of a heterogeneous medium implies that the medium is large enough that the ergodic theorem holds and local fluctuation of the property can be neglected. In case that the medium is not large enough compared to its characteristic microstructure length scale, the effective property fluctuates and differs from the value of the medium being large enough. As a representative transport phenomenon, diffusion was considered and the fluctuation of varying effective diffusion property, diffusion coarseness $C_k$, was defined as a quantifying parameter. Scaled effective diffusion property, $^*$>/k$_1$ and $C_k$ were computed for the two phase random media consisting of matrix of diffusion coefficient k$_1$ and spheres of diffusion coefficient k$_2$. Numerical simulations were performed by use of the so-called first passage time technique and data were collected for existing microstructure models of hard spheres(HS), overlapping spheres(OS) and penetrable concentric shells(PCS).

We show that given any chain transitive set of a C¹ generic diffeomorphism f, if a diffeomorphism f has the eventual shadowing property on the locally maximal chain transitive set, then it is hyperbolic. Moreover, given any chain transitive set of a C¹ generic vector field X, if a vector field X has the eventual shadowing property on the locally maximal chain transitive set, then the chain transitive set does not contain a singular point and it is hyperbolic. We apply our results to conservative systems (volume-preserving diffeomorphisms and divergence-free vector fields).

The resistance property of a high speed passenger craft (: "DOL-PIN HO" designed by the author in 1972) is investigated as follows; -. The Resistance property of the craft is determined by savitsky′s method and blount-Fox′s method. The theoretical results are also compared with the full scale data. The comparison reveals that the result when using blount/fox′s method are in much closer agreement with the full scale data than savitsky′s. -. The effects of ship speed on the positions of the center of pressure and of the longitudinal center of gravity (L.C.G.) are investigated. The investigation shows that the position of L.C.G. of the craft is almost constant although the ship speed is changed. -. The effect of transom flap on the Resistance property of the craft is studied using savitsky/brown′s method. From the study it is found that the resistance of the craft is decreased and hence speed gain (about 3% of the service speed) can be obtained, when using transom flap for the craft.
