Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) has recently received attention in developing implantable surgical equipments and it is expected to lead the future medical device market by adequately imitating surgeons' flexible and delicate hand movement. However, SMA actuators have not been used widely because of their nonlinear behavior called hysteresis, which makes their control difficult. Hence, we propose a parameter, $t_1$, which is necessary for temperature control, by analyzing the open-loop step response between current and temperature and by comparing it with the values of linear differential equations. $t_1$ is a pole of the transfer function in the invariant linear model in which the input and output are current and temperature, respectively; hence, $t_1$ is found to be related to the state variable used for temperature control. When considering the parameter under heat treatment conditions, $T_{max}$ was found to assume the lowest value, and $t_1$ was irrelevant to the heat treatment.

The influence of unsteady wake on the flow and heat transfer characteristics in a four-vane linear cascade was experimentally investigated. The unsteady wake was generated with four rotating rectangular plates located upstream of the cascade. Tested inlet Reynolds number based on chord length was set to 66,000 by controlling free-stream velocity. A hot-wire anemometer system was employed to measure turbulent velocity components. For the convective heat transfer coefficients measurement on turbine blade surface, thermochromic liquid crystal and gold film Intrex were used. It was found that the unsteady wake enhances the turbulent motion in the cascade passage and accordingly promotes the development and transition of boundary layer. It was found that the heat transfer coefficients on the blade surface increase as the plate rotating speed increases. However, the increasing of heat transfer coefficients is not significant in the case that Strouhal number is higher than 0.503.

Polystyrene/polycarbonate 조성이 약 50/50인 3종류의 Poly(carbonate-g-styrene) 공중합체의 동적 탄성율, E*($\omega$)와 동적 스트레인-광학계수 O*($\omega$)을 유리전이 영역부근의 여러온도에서 동시에 측정하여 연구하였다. 두 개의 공중합체는 각각의 스티렌 그라프트쇄 에 5, 10 wt%의 MAH를 함유하고 있다. 이들 공중합체의 E*($\omega$)와 O*($\omega$)완화거동과 그라 프트 공중합체의 상용성과 연관하여 비교 고찰하였다. 공중합체들의 E*($\omega$)는 전형적인 무 정형 고분자의 유리전이 완하거동을 보였으며 정성적인 차이를 발견할수 없었다. 그러나 고 강도의 단일 tan$\delta$분산의 저주파수 영역에 미세분산을 나타내, 공중합체는 2상으로 분리되 어 있음이 추정되엇다. 폴리스티렌 그라프트체에 무수 말레인산 함유량이 증가함에 따라, 저 주파수 영역의 미세피크가 $\alpha$주분산에 병합되어 성분 고분자간의 상호 형동성이 증가함을 알수 있었다. 3공중합체의 유사한 기계적 특성과는 달리, 광학적 완화 스펙트럼 O*($\omega$)는 정 성적으로 명확한 차이를 보여 공중합체들의 광학완화 거동이 명확히 다름을 나타냈다. 기계 적 특성보다는 광학적 특성이 공중합체내의 성분 고분자의 미세한 완하 거동에 훨씬 민감한 응답을나타냈다. 이러한 특성적인 공중합체의 O*($\omega$)차이를 공중합체의 조성단일 고분자 PS, PC의 O*($\omega$)의 가성성을 가정하여 모사하였다 모사에서 구한 광학적 부분 기여 파라메 터를 사용하여 공중합체의 상용성을 고찰하였다.

For the control of vibration and noise of metal structures having relatively low damping, viscoelastic materials are widely used and usually attached at metal structures with an additional constraining layer to secure them. The damping and elastic properties of structures having constrained viscoelastic material layers are dependent on not only temperature and frequency but also their thicknesses. Hence, optimal design of the thicknesses of viscoelastic and constraining layers for a certain base structure are very important to maximize their efficiency and to lighten their weight. In this study, the variation of loss factor of beams having a constrained viscoelastic layer according to the change of thickness has been carefully investigated. From these, optimal design method of the minimum thickness beam having a given loss factor is suggested and numerically verified for a real beam.

Microwave dielectric properties of $(1-x)CaWO_4-xYNbO_4$ ceramics have been investigated as a function of $YNbO_4$ content($0.05{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$). A single phase with tetragonal scheelite structure was obtained up to x=0.10 and then the secondary phase with fergusonite structure was increased. With the increase of $YNbO_4$ content, apparent densities of the specimens were decreased. This results were due to the lower theoretical density of $YNbO_4(5.581g/cm^3)$ than that of $CaWO_4(6.117g/cm^3)$. Dielectric constant(K) and quality factor(Qf) were decreased with $YNbO_4$ content which could be attribute to the decrease of density and the increase of secondary phase. Temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) of the specimens with the $YNbO_4$ content was depended on dielectric mixing rule.
