In this paper, a design method for an intermediate die was developed to manufacture a hollow linear motion guide rail in mandrel drawing process based on virtual die method and backward tracing scheme. FE simulations and mandrel drawing experiments using Mn55Cr carbon steel were performed to prove the effectiveness of the proposed design method. Results of FE simulations and experiments showed that the proposed design method could lead to drawn products with sound shape and the highest dimensional precision.

This study employs the variety of mixtures of XAD resin and active carbons as concentration base for solid phase extraction (SPE) which has been widely used to preconcentrate and purify phenol and chlorophenols in determination of environmental water samples. In this study, we employed variety of mixtures of copolymer based XAD-4 resin with active carbons. This cartridges shows advantages of both materials, such as better affinity to phenol by active carbon and better mechanical stabilities from XAD resin. The better enrichment factor, pretreatment time, recoveries and limit of detection (LOD) were achieved by the attempts to pack precolumns with both meterials for preconcentration.

Graphene has attracted considerable attention since its first production from graphite in 2004, due to its outstanding physical and chemical properties. The development of production methodsfor large scale, high quality graphene films is an essentialstep toward realizing graphene applications such as transparent, conductive film. Chemical deposition methods, using metal catalystsand gaseous carbon sources, have been extensively developed for large area synthesis. In this paper, wereview recent progress ingraphene production, and survey the role of graphene electrodes in various electronic devices such as touch panels, solar cells, solid statelighting and microelectronic devices.

Alloy 713LC was developed to improve the tensile strength and ductility by reducing the carbon content of Alloy 713C. As Alloy 713LC was designed to minimize the mechanical property change with process conditions, it is generally utilized in the parts which have thick and thin sections simultaneously. In the thick and the thin sections, quite different properties are required. Consequently it is essential to crucially control the local mechanical properties of a parts by optimizing the process condition and heat treatment. In this research, high temperature mechanical properties including creep-rupture and strain-control low cycle fatigue were investigated together with the microstructural variations with heat treatment. Failure mechanism was also analyzed by observing the fracture surface to correlate the variation of mechanical properties with the microstructural change.

Based on experimental and theoretical analyses, we suggested a new possibility that the CVD diamond films grow not by the atomic unit but by the charged clusters containing a few hundreds of carbon atoms, which form spontaneously in the gas phase [J. Crysta] Growth 62 (1996) 55]. These hypothetical negatively-charged clusters were experimentally confirmed under a typical hot-filament diamond CVD process. Thin film growth by charged clusters or gas phase colloids of a few nanometers was also confirmed in Si and ZrO₂ CVD and appears to be general in many other CVD processes. Many puzzling phenomena in the CVD process such as selective deposition and nanowire growth could be explained by the deposition behavior of charged clusters. Charged clusters were shown to generate and contribute at least partially to the film deposition by thermal evaporation. Origin of charging at the relatively low temperature was explained by the surface ionization described by Saha-Langmuir equation. The hot surface with a high work function favors positive charging of clusters while that of a low work function favors negative charging.

In-situ observations of nano-scale behavior of nanomaterials are very important to understand onthe nano-scale phenomena associated with phase change, atomic movement, electrical or optical properties, and even reactions which take place in gas or liquid phases. We have developed on the in-situ experimental technologies of nano-materials (nano-cluster, nanowire, carbon nanotube, and graphene, et al.) and their interactions (percolation of metal nanoclusters, inter-diffusion, metal contacts and phase changes in nanowire devices, formation of solid nano-pores, melting behavior of isolated nano-metal in a nano-cup, et al.) by nano-discovery membrane platform [1-4]. Between two microelectrodes on a silicon nitride membrane platform, electrical percolations of metal nano-clusters are observed with nano-structures of deposited clusters. Their in-situ monitoring can make percolation devices of different conductance, nanoclusters based memory devices, and surface plasmonic enhancement devices, et al. As basic evidence on the phase change memory, phase change behaviors of nanowire devices are observed at a nano-scale.

In this study, the analytic model of concrete column strengthened with CFS(carbon fiber sheets) for obtaining P-M interaction is presented. Firstly, an algorithm to evaluate accurate behavior of CFS is presented using laminate theory. Stress-strain model of CFS is presented based on the results of this algorithm. Secondly, an algorithm to evaluate stress-strain relationship of concrete column confined with CFS is presented. In order to evaluate the reliability of these algorithms, the results of analysis are compared with experimental data. Lastly, section analysis is performed by using constitutive equations of materials. As a result, P-M interaction curve of the column strengthened is obtained and the strengthening effects of CFs are analyzed.

This paper investigates approaches for improving effective mobility of organic thin film transistors (OTFTs). We consider gate dielectric optimization, whereby we demonstrated >2x increase in mobility by using a silicon-rich silicon nitride ($SiN_x$) gate dielectric for polythiophene-based (PQT) OTFTs. We also engineer the dielectric-semiconductor ($SiN_x$-PQT) interface to attain a 27x increase in mobility (up to 0.22 $cm^2$/V-s) using an optimized combination of oxygen plasma and OTS SAM treatments. Augmentative material systems by combining 1-D nanomaterials (e.g., carbon nanotubes, zinc oxide nanowires) in an organic matrix for nanocomposite OTFTs provided a further boost in device performance.

The use of the pulsed electro acoustic (PEA) method allowed us to perform the direct observations of spatio-temporal charge distributions in Electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) based on polarizable nanoporous carbonaceous electrode. The negative charge density became the maximum, about $205C/m^3$ at the region where was near to collector layer in EDLCs for case $V_{DC}=2.5V$, while the positively charged density became the maximum, about $61.1C/m^3$ at the region where it was located around the cathode layer. The performance of the best sample was found to be better in terms of the charge density (Cs) and specific energy ($E_s$) with a maximum value of ${\sim}8.4F/g$ and 26 Wh/kg. The $C_s$ obtained from the PEA method agreed well with that from the energy conversion method. The PEA measurement used here is a very useful method to quantitively investigates the spatio-temporal charge distribution in EDLCs.

Because cosmetics are applied directly to human skin, contamination of such products by microorganisms should be carefully avoided. Since cosmetics are usually kept at room temperature and contain large amounts of nitrogen and carbon sources, they may easily become contaminated by a variety of microorganisms, such as bacteria, filamentous fungi, and yeasts. The rapid and accurate identification of these microorganisms is essential to prevent further expansion of such contamination and the damage it causes. However, more than 30 days and laboratory skills are usually necessary in order to identify microorganisms in cosmetic materials. These time and labor constraints may allow further damage of the cosmetic products and thereby harm the consumer.(omitted)
