In case of designing and manufacturing non-circular gear. I suggest one of references in applying non-circular gear to industrial plant, and suitable range of application by pressure angle curvature and angle ratio

Purpose: This study was to know the correlation among refractive error and the dimensions of ocular components on older adults. Methods: The subjects were 95 older age who had no eye diseases. The refractive error, corneal radius, corneal diopter, axial length, anterior chamber depth and lens thickness were measured and analysed. Results: The axial length(AL)/corneal radius(CR) ratio was positively correlated with the corneal diopter, axial length, the anterior chamber depth. Then it was negatively correlated with corneal radius. It was shown that the highest correlation was between the corneal diopter and axial length (r = -0.545, p = 0.000). The spherical equivalent of the refractive error was negatively correlated with the AL/CR ratio. Conclusions: It was shown that the AL/CR ratio was a very important indicator for diagnosing the refractive error of the old age.

Purpose: To represent the shape of toric corea in the elliptical function for the determination of curvature distribution and lacrimal thickness between cornea and contact lens when the lens is fitted. Methods: Topography measurements of corneal curvature and curvature equation derived from the assumed elliptical function were evaluated using the Excel program which included the necessary equation derived. Results: Mathematical expressions for the cornea whose ribbon shaped-topography image, in which the center does not coincide with the corneal apex, can be determined. Conclusions: For the application where the higher accuracy on the cornea is not required, such as higher order aberration, the cornea cal be expressed in the simple elliptical function.

The flow characteristics varying with the rate of the radius of curvature to width (Rc/B) in open channel bends are investigated with a simplified numerical model, briefly. Secondary flow velocity and transverse bed slope are formulated from the equations of moment of momentum and force balance analysis, respectively. The conservation equations of mass and streamwise momentum are simplified by depth integration and its solution could be obtained form explicit finite difference method. Three sets of computer simulation are executed. The rates of Rc/B adopted in simulations are 2.7, 5.4, 8.1 , respectively. The terms analyzed in this paper are secondary flow velocity, streamwise velocity, the path of maximum streamwise velocity, deviation angle, and mass-shift velocity.

In this paper, three-dimensional analysis of the curved levee was performed according to curvature angle, and radius of curvature to investigate the property of seepage. The hydraulic gradients in the curved parts of levees decreased in the outer levee and increased in the inner levee, compared to the two-dimensional analysis. The smaller the curvature angle and the radius of curvature, the larger the change of the hydraulic gradient, compared to the two-dimensional analysis. The effect of curvature radius on the hydraulic gradient was greater than the curvature angle. As a result of evaluating the piping safety factor for the critical hydraulic gradient, the safety factor was increased by 2~5% in the outer levee and decreased by 4~12% in the inner levee, compared to the two-dimensional analysis. Considering this reduction, if the two-dimensional analysis is performed on the curved part of the levee, and if designed the safety factor for piping is 0.1~0.3 greater than allowable FS=2.0, the safety factor of the curved part is slightly reduced, but there is no difficulty in securing stability.

Purpose: This study was to compare differences between both eyes in corneal powers, axial lengths, anterior chamber depths in anisometropia and isometropia, and to investigate the relationship between anisometropia and refractive components. Methods: The subject was a total of 83 patients, anisometropia 45 patients (90 eyes) and isometropia 38 patients (76 eyes) from 2.7 to 15.3 years old, prescribed eyeglasses and contact lenses by refraction from July 2010 to August 2010 in Gwangju City B eye clinic. Axial length, anterior chamber depth, corneal curvature, and corneal refractive power were measured using IOL Master. Refractive error was measured using an Auto-refractometer. Results: Anisometropia was a statistically significant difference in axial length, binocular refractive components, refractive error, and axial length, Axial length/corneal radius (AL/CR) ratio showed a statistically significant difference in anisometropia and isometropia. The major cause of anisometropia all 45 subjects was the axial length. Among the refractive components axial length, AL/CR had a strong correlation, but corneal refractive power had no correlation. Anterior chamber depth had a weak correlation. Conclusions: This study found that refractive error was the most axial ametropia caused by the axial length. The main cause of anisometropia was the axial length, but refractive components had a weak correlation.

밀도가 온도의 변화에 따라 비선형적으로 변하는 경우, 예를 들어 공업적으로 많이 이용되고 있는 저온의 물인 경우에는 $4^{\circ}C$부근의 최대밀도점의 존재로 인해 매우 특이한 유동형태 및 열전달 특성이 나타난다. 또한 유체와 접하는 고체면이 평판의 경우와는 달리 어떤 일정의 곡률을 가지는 원기둥일 경우에는 곡률반경의 효과에 대한 특성이 고려되어야 한다. 이러한 현상은 공업적 측면뿐만 아니라 자연환경의 변화 등에서 매우 중요한 의미를 갖는다. (중략)

In the present study, the aerodynamic characteristics of elliptic airfoils are investigated numerically based on the RANS equations and the S-A turbulent model on unstructured meshes. Unlike the NACA series airfoil sections, elliptic airfoils have a relatively small leading edge radius and a rounded trailing edge. Also the maximum thickness is located in the middle of the chord. This geometric characteristics are responsible for the difference in the aerodynamic characteristics from those of NACA family airfoils. To identify the aerodynamic characteristics of elliptic airfoils, the results were compared with those of NACA series airfoils with a same maximum thickness. The effect of airfoil thickness variation on the aerodynamic characteristics were also investigated.

Synthesis of well-defined particle with tunable size, shape, and functionalities is strongly emphasized for various applications such as chemistry, biology, material science, chemical engineering, medicine, and biotechnology. This study presents micromolding method for the fabrication of anisotropic particles with elegant control of curvature of covex roof. For the demostration of rapid fabrication of the particles, we have applied polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) micromold as structure guiding template and wetting fluid to control curvature of roof of the particles. Based on this approach, we can control the radius of curvature from $20{\mu}m$ to $70{\mu}m$ with different aspect ratio of mold. In addition, wetting fluids with different wetting properties can also modulate the height and radius of curvature of the particles. We envision that this methodology is promising tool for precise control of particle shape in 3-dimensional space and new synthetic route for anisotropic particles with cost effective, simple, easy, and fast procedure.

Flame propagation velocity is the one of the main mechanism of the stabilization of triple flame. To quantify the triple flame propagation velocity, Bilger presents the triple flame propagation velocity through the experiment, depending on the mixture fraction gradient, based on the laminar jet flow theory. However, in spite of these many analyses, there has not been any attempt to quantify the triple flame propagation velocity with the radius of flame curvature. In the present research, a relation of the flame propagation velocity is proposed with the radius of flame curvature for the flame stabilization mechanism. As a result, we have shown that the height of lifted flame is determined with the nozzle diameter and exit velocity of fuel and presented that the radius of flame curvature is proportion to the nozzle exit velocity of fuel and height of lifted flame. Therefore, the importance of the radius of flame curvature has to be recognized. To discribe the flame stabilization mechanism, Bilger's formula has to be modified with flame curvature effect.
