Black cobalt solar selective coatings were prepared by using an electroplating method. The changes in the optical properties of the black cobalt selective coating due to thermal degradation were analyzed by using the Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and spectrophotometer. The black cobalt selective coating was prepared on a copper substrate by using a synthesized electrolyte with $CoCl_2$ and KSCN at a current density of ${\sim}0.5A/dm^2$ for 45s ~ 60s. Its optical properties were a solar absorptance (${\alpha}$) of the order of 0.80 ~ 0.84 and a thermal emittance (${\epsilon}$) of 0.01. From the AES depth profile analysis of heated sample, thermal degradation of the black cobalt selective coating heated for 33 hours at temperature of $350^{\circ}C$ occurred primarily due to interdiffusion at interface of cobalt and copper substrate. This results were predictable that the ${\alpha}$ decreases due to the thermal oxidation and diffusion.

Zr-O ($Zr-ZrO_2$) cermets solar selective coatings with a double cermets layer film structure were prepared using a DC (direct current) magnetron sputtering method. The typical film structure from surface to bottom substrate were an $Al_2O_3$ anti-reflection layer on a double Zr-O cermets layer on an Al metal infrared reflection layer. Optical properties of optimized Zr-O cermets solar selective coating had an absorptance of ${\alpha}\;=\;0.95$ and thermal omittance of ${\epsilon}\;=\;0.10\;(100^{\circ}C)$. The absorbing layer of Zr-O cermets coatings on glass and silicon substrate was identified as being amorphous by using XRD. AFM showed that ZF-O cermets layers were very smooth and their surface roughness were approximately $0.1{\sim}0.2 nm$. The chemical analysis of the cermets coatings were determined by using XPS. Chemical shift of photoelectron binding energy was occurred due to the change of Zr-O cermets coating structure deposited with increase in oxygen flow rate. The result of thermal stability test showed that the Zr-O cermets solar selective coating was stable for use at temperature below $350^{\circ}C$.

The artifacts in sonography is not always harmful. Sometimes it is beneficial for the evaluation of the water contents of the soft tissue and estimating the degree of inflammation and character of the regenerated tissue indirectly using artifacts such as acoustic shadowing and the enhanced transmission. It can also be useful to evaluate the possibility of aspiration of the calcifies masses by knowing of the contents of the water among them. Unlike the MRI it is useful to get real time informations with low cost in diagnosis and treatment of the soft tissue disease usinf artifacts in sonography.

The improvement of volumetric efficiency of air charging into combustion chamber is a primary requirement to obtain better mean effective pressure of an engine. Since parameters such as the air resistances in intake and exhaust flow passages, valve lift and valve timing influence greatly to the volumetric efficiency, it is very convenient and time saving if we can optimize these parameters by computation before we enter into long time fact finding engine tests. In this study we have developed a semi-empirical engine simulation program for the determinations of intake and exhaust valve timings, valve lifts, intake and exhaust port diameters in order to obtain highest volumetric efficiency. In this computation it requires only the measured variational pressures in intake and exhaust port. Using these variational pressures as an input data for our simulation program, we can calculate volumetric efficiency more accurately and can save computing time drastically. To confirm the validity of our simulation program we have made engine operation test in parallel and taken the experimental data. Comparing the computation result with the experimental data obtained through real engine test it has shown only the difference of 3%.

So-called sclerosing hemangioma of the lung is a rare benign neoplasm which usually presents with a coin lesion detected through routine chest X-ray. We report two cases showing characteristic cytologic appearances which have been rarely reported. Both cases were young females with coin lesions in the lung. Fine needle aspiration of each case revealed unique but some different cytologic features. Case 1 showed bland-looking polygonal epithelial cells resembling bronchioloalveolar cells haying predominantly papillary configurations with loosely arranged solid sheets or isolated cells. Cytoplasms were plump, cyanophilic, and finely granular, with eccentric nuclei. The nuclei were usually monotonous, round-to-ovoid, and vesicular with a small but conspicuous nucleolus. In comparison to case 1, case 2 revealed largely loose pavement-like solid sheets or clusters rather than papillary patterns in the hemorrhagic background. The size of tumor cells were a little smaller than that of case 1. Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma and papillary adenocarcinoma of metastatic origin were considered to be one of the important differential diagnoses with these cytologic features. Histologically, both cases exhibited findings compatible with so-called sclerosing hemangioma of the lung.

Metastasis to the thyroid gland is very rare in clinical practice. We recently encountered a 65-year-old woman who presented with a large thyroid nodule that mimicked the cytologic features of a papillary thyroid carcinoma on fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). Although initially diagnosed as a papillary thyroid carcinoma, a thorough clinical work-up revealed multiple lesions in the bones, liver, and nasal cavity, which were confirmed as metastases of a malignant melanoma. Despite a thorough physical examination, however, the primary skin lesion could not be identified. Although FNAB shows a high degree of accuracy in diagnosing primary thyroid tumors, it is less accurate in diagnosing metastases to the thyroid gland. A thorough clinical history with appropriate immunohistochemical staining assays is necessary for the accurate diagnosis of metastatic malignant melanoma.

In present study, a supersonic inlet for dual mode ramjets or RBCC/TBCC engines with a wide range of flight Mach numbers is designed. A conical variable inlet configuration is chosen for the inlet design. Geometric relations with angles of compression cones and conical shock waves are used for the design of the inlet configuration. The performance of the supersonic inlet is confirmed by the numerical analysis. The capture area ratio is maintained around 100% from Mach 3 to 8 conditions.

Black cobalt solar selective coatings were prepared by thermal oxidation of electroplated cobalt metal on copper and nickel substrates. The optical properties and structure of the black cobalt selective coating for solar energy utilizations were characterized by glow discharge spectrometry (GDS), ultraviolet-visible-near infrared (UV-VIS-NIR) spectrometer, atom force microscopy(AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The optical properties of optimum black cobalt selective coating prepared on copper substrate were a solar absorptance of 0.82 and a thermal emittance of 0.01. From the GDS depth profile analysis of these coatings, the concentration of cobalt particles near the interface was higher than at the surface, but oxygen concentration at the surface was higher than at the interface. These results suggest that the selective absorption was dominated by this chemical composition variation in the coating. The surface of this film exhibited morphology with root-mean-square(rms) roughness of about 144.3nm. XPS measurements data showed that several phases of Co coexist($Co_3O_4$,CoO) in the film.

A novel monomeric UV-absorber was prepared by the reaction of 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone with N-4-chlorocarbonylphenylmaleimide in the presence of triethylamine. This reactive maleimide was grafted onto polypropylene (PP) by the thermal melt-processing in a mini-max-moulder. IR spectroscopic method was used for the quantitative determination of the extent of grafting of monomeric maleimide. To find the optimal reaction conditions, the dependence of reaction temperature and time and the concentration of monomeric UV-absorber was investigated on the grafting yields. The photooxidative effect of the grafted PP was evaluated in the weatherometer comparing to the PP mixed with UV-absorbers using the carbonyl index of IR spectrum. The grafted PP showed an excellent anti-photooxidative effect.
