In this study, bottom-up type powder processing and top-down type SPD (severe plastic deformation) approaches were combined in order to achieve full density of 1 vol.% carbon nanotube (CNT)-metal matrix composites with superior mechanical properties by improved particle bonding and least grain growth, which were considered as a bottle neck of the bottom-up method using the conventional powder metallurgy of compaction and sintering. ECAP (equal channel angular pressing), the most promising method in SPD, was used for the CNT-Cu powder consolidation. The powder ECAP processing with 1, 2, 4 and 8 route C passes was conducted at room temperature. It was found by mechanical testing of the consolidated 1 vol.% CNT-Cu that high mechanical strength could be achieved effectively as a result of the Cu matrix strengthening and improved particle bonding during ECAP. The ECAP processing of powders is a viable method to achieve fully density CNT-Cu nanocomposites.

An angular spectral inverse technique, applying the moment method procedure with a series expansion for the induced field in each enlarged cell, is suggested to reconstruct permittivity profiles of inhomogeneous dielectric objects and to reduce the ill-posedness inherent to inverse scattering problems. The angular spectral inverse scattering using the pulse basis function in enlarging the scatterer has the ill-posedness due to the input data of higher spectra. To reduce the number of higher spectra, enlarging the cell size and averaging over the cell with a suitable weighting function are found to play improtant roles for the reduction of ill-posedness of the angular spectral inverse scattering problems.

This paper presents the dynamic analysis and experiment for a shaft system supported by angular contact ball bearings. Among others, the dynamic characteristics of bearings are significantly affected by axial preload and radial load applied. This paper rigorously analyzes the dynamic characteristics of a shaft system with angular contact ball bearings subject of axial preload so as to result in eigenvalues as well as bearing stiffness characteristics. Experiments are also performed to identify natural frequencies and stiffness characteristics of bearings implemented. Comparison is made on the theoretical and experimental results.

Radiative heat transfer in an axisymmetric enclosure with absorbing, emitting, and scattering medium is studied here by using the different methods such as MDOM, FVM, and FVM2 with emphasis on the treatment of angular derivative term, which appears in a curvilinear coordinates due to angular redistribution. After final discretization equation for FVM2 is introduced by using the step scheme and directional weights, present approach is validated by applying it to three different benchmarking problems with absorbing, emitting, and scattering medium.

A vibrating angular rate sensor with tuning fork type resonator of microstructure (940*820 .mu. m$^{2}$) was designed and will be fabricated by polysilicon surface micromaching. The angular rate sensor is driven in a lateral direction by electrostatic force of comb drive electrodes, and vertical vibrations of the sensor, thich is detected capacitively, are produced by Coriolis forces due to an external angular rate. Mechanical Q factors and a difference between the frequencies of the two resonant modes, the driving mode and detecting mode, play a great role in increasing the sensitivity of the sensor. To be a highly sensitive sensor, it was designed to have as small frequency discrepancy of the two resonant modes as possible. Finite element method was used for the modal analysis. Several design parameters were selected and their contributions to the modal frequencies were investigated. A method was presented for tuning the detecting mode frequency by DC bias on the drive electrodes.

A gyroscope is a rotating body possessing one axis of symmetry and whose rotation about the symmetry axis is relatively large compared with the rotation about any other axis. Tuning fork is this type of structure that various modem gyro-sensors are based on. In this paper, dynamic behavior of a cantilevered beam subjected ta a base rotation with respect to the eccentric axis that is parallel to the beam axis is analyzed. The final equations of motion in terms of generalized coordinates can be solved with numerical scheme with various values of angular velocities and angular accelerations of the rotating axis. In contrast to the case of rotating cantilever beam like helicopter blade, the rotational motion with respect to the beam axis has effect to decrease the stiffness of the beam and has unstable region depending on the magnitude of the rotational angular velocity and angular acceleration.

The angular dispersion-type non-scanning Fabry-Perot was applied to an ethanol-water mixture in order to investigate its acoustic properties such as the sound velocity and the absorption coefficient. The scattered light from the mixture was analyzed by using the charge-coupled-device area detector, which made the measurement time much shorter than that obtained by using the conventional scanning tandem multi-pass Fabry-Perot interferometer. The sound velocity showed a deviation from ultrasonic sound velocities at low temperatures accompanied by the increase in the absorption coefficient, indicating acoustic dispersion due to the coupling between the acoustic waves and some relaxation process. Based on a simplified viscoelastic theory, the temperature dependence of the relaxation time was obtained. The addition of water molecules to ethanol reduced the relaxation time, consistent with dielectric measurements. The present study showed that the angular dispersion-type Fabry-Perot interferometer combined with an area detector could be a very powerful tool in the real-time monitoring of the acoustic properties of condensed matter.

In this study, the nose of cam in the automobile engine was modelled into circular disk to analyze the torsional vibration of the cam shaft. The distance between disks was fixed, but the diameter of disks was changed. The torsional vibration of the cam shaft was studied experimentally by the motion of the modelled disk with changing the disk diameter. And the sizes of the modelled disk were selected not to show the natural frequencies over all the experimental ranges. The torsional vibration meter used in this study has a laser system with non-contact measurement method, which can measure both torsional angular vibration velocity and torsional angular vibration displacement simultaneously. The Experimental analysis shows that the characteristics of the torsional vibration in the horizontal rotating shaft can be considerably affected by the arrangement of the modelled disks.

Angular misalignment is one of the important causes for shaft vibration of turbine-generator in 1000MW nuclear power plant. It may cause the plant unexpected shutdown and subsequent accident. The change of dynamic characteristics in journal bearing and rotor due to angular misalignment in high pressure turbine is analyzed. The stiffness/damping coefficients of journal bearing increase as angular misalignment. Subsequently the natural frequency of HP turbine is changed. It was found that the natural frequency may locate near 2 times operating frequency in case of severe misalignment.

The origin of galactic angular momentum is commonly explained as a result of tidal torques of neighbouring protogalaxies on the forming galactic halo. In this context, the environment plays a preponderant role establishing the total angular momentum of present day galaxies. For the last four decades, most of the observational studies focused their attention on the spatial orientation of galaxies in filaments, groups or clusters, leaving behind the magnitude of the angular momentum. We have implemented a simple model to account for the spin of disk galaxies that allow us to obtain an estimate for any galaxy requiring a minimum of information. Applying this method to a sample of galaxies extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we have been studying angular momentum distributions of galaxies in different environments. In this talk I will present some results for galaxies immersed in different environments, spanning three orders of magnitude in environmental density, galaxies having nearby companions and clustered galaxies.
