Wood fuel must be dried before combustion to minimize the energy loss. Sawdust of Japanese red pine was dried in a direct contact thermal screw dryer to investigate the drying characteristics of sawdust as a raw material for bio-fuel. Average drying rate and energy efficiency was 1.4%/min and 69.23% at $100^{\circ}C$, respectively, and those at $120^{\circ}C$ was 2.1%/min and 71.03%, respectively.

Analyzing dynamic performance between pantograph and contact wire depends on mechanical and electrical conditions such as contact force, currents, aerodynamics of pantograph and tension of overhead contact wire. For the characteristic of dynamic performance between pantograph and overhead contact wire, various evaluation systems are used to measuring of the interaction of the contact line and the pantograph. Among the various methods, the contact force and percentage of arcing are intended to prove the safety and the quality of the current collection system on the train. However, these methods are only capable of measuring on the train which are installed measurement systems. Therefore in this paper, a track-side monitoring system was implemented to measure electrical characteristics from active overhead contact wire systems in order to constantly estimate current collection performance of railway operation. In addition, a method to analyze loss of contact phenomena was proposed. According to simulation results, the proposed system was capable of measuring abnormal electrical behavior of pantograph and contact wires on the track-side. The advantage of the proposed system is possible to detect loss of contact or any other electrical abnormalities of all types of trains within sections from sub to sub without the need to install any on-board equipment on trains.

소프트 콘택트렌즈의 산소투과성은 눈의 생리적 반응을 고려할 때 각막의 건강 상태를 결정하는 주요 파라미터이다. 이 연구의 목적은 폴라로그래피 방법을 이용하여 두께 기준에 따른 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 산소투과성을 평가하는데 있다. 렌즈의 두께는 접촉식과 비접촉식 방법으로 측정하였고, 정확도와 신뢰도를 평가하기 위하여 Bland-Altman 분석을 하였다. 정확도는 비접촉식 방법으로 측정한 중심 두께 기준의 산소투과성에서 높은 반면, 신뢰도는 접촉식 방법으로 측정한 중심 두께 기준의 산소투과성에서 높았다. 이 결과는 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 두께 측정방법과 기준에 따라 산소투과성이 다르며, 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 두께 측정은 비접촉식 방법이 보다 더 합리적임을 보여준다. 따라서 콘택트렌즈 임상 실무자들은 산소 공급 능력에 대한 데이터를 해석하거나 인용할 경우, 방법론 사이의 기본적 차이를 고려하여야 한다.

Performance of the water direct contact air conditioning system, in which heat and mass are transferred directly between air and water droplet, is simulated by semi-empirical method. This system improves transport efficiency compared to conventional indirect contact system and cooling, heating, dehumidification and humidification are attained with one unit. In this study, temperature and flowrate for air and water are measured in the various cooling and heating conditions, and correlations for $h_{c}A/c_{pm}$ are derived from these data. Cooling and heating characteristics of the water direct contact air conditioning system are investigated using correlations.

Tire vibration modes are known to play a key role in vehicle ride and comfort characteristics. Inputs to the tire such as impacts, rough road surface, tire nonuniformities, and tread patterns can potentially excite tire vibration. In this study, experimental modal analysis on the tire in ground contact are performed by a 3-D impact at the center of contact patch to investigate which modes of tire influence the vibration of wheel and axle. Through the experiment, the vibration transmission properties from tire to axle are examined. And we have compared the influential tire modes when the tire is excited by a vertical impact with those when excited by the 3-D impact. Additionally, the modes of ground contact tire are compared with those of the suspended tire.

물성을 달리한 $\alpha$-Si을 사용하여 MIM(Metal-Insulator-Metal)구조의 antifuse들을 제작하고, 물성의 변화에 따른 전기적 특성의 변화를 조사하였다. $\alpha$-Si은 PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition)방법으로 증착하였으며, 물성은 RF power를 달리하여 변화시켰다. $\alpha$-Si MIM구조의 antifuse를 프로그램할 때 생기는 failure rate를 줄이기 위해 전극 사이에 삽입되는 $\alpha$-Si의 contact hole 크기와 개수를 변화시켜 보았다. MIM antifuse는 contact hole이 2개 이상일 때 failure rate가 10% 이내로 줄었으며, 프로그래밍 전류는 거의 변화가 없었다. 항복전압은 10-11V범위에 집중적으로 분포하였으며, 5V에서의 누설전류는 contact hole의 수가 증가함에 따라 커짐을 알았다.

Atomistic simulation of nanoindentation with spherical indenters was carried out to study dislocation structures, mean contact pressure, and nanohardness of Au and Al thin films. Slip vectors and atomic stresses were used to characterize the dislocation processes. Two different characteristics were found in the induced dislocation structures: wide-spread slip activities in Al, and confined and intact structures in Au. For both samples, the mean contact pressure varied significantly during the early stages of indentation but reached a steady value soon after the first apparent load drop. This indicates that the nanohardness of Al and Au is not affected by the indentation depth for spherical indenters, even at the atomistic scale.

Dynamics of railway vehicles are strongly influenced by the wheel/rail contact forces. Wheel/rail contact geometric characteristics are important parameters to determining wheel/rail contact forces. In general, geometric relations between wheel and rail are represented by nonlinear functions of the wheelset lateral excursion and the relative yaw angle. There are some analytical and experimental studies to show the influences of the wheelset lateral displacement on wheel/rail geometric relations. Recently radial steering bogie which is designed to have flexible yaw motions of wheelsets was developed to improve curve negotiation performance. The radial steering bogie makes it important problem to study the effects of wheelset yaw motion on wheel/rail geometric relations. This paper describes the method to analyze 3-dimensional wheel/rail contact geometry considering wheelset yaw motion and describes also some computer simulation results.

The transmission load of gear devices is important factor in the design of gear system. To design gear system precisely, an analysis and calculation methods for transmission load of gears are demanded. The purpose of this study is to develop a computer program for analyzing tooth load sharing of a spur gear system by means of the contact theory. In this paper, load transmission characteristics is identified with elastic contact problem which is assumed to quasi-static equilibrium. The modeling of spur gear tooth is accomplished by application of I-DEAS.
