Rectangular box type structures are used in many fields of civil, mechanical and marine engineering. Especially, Most ship structures are often in contact with inner or outer fluid, like ballast, fuel and stem tanks. Fatigue damages are sometimes observed in these tanks which seem to be caused by resonance with exciting force of engine and propeller. Vibration characteristics of these thin walled tanks in contact with fluid near engine and propeller are strongly affected by added mass of containing fluid. Therefore it is essentially important to estimate the added mass effect to predict vibration of the tanks. Many authors have studied vibration of rectangular tanks containing fluid. Few research on dynamic interaction among tank walls filled with fluid are reported in the vibration of rectangular tanks recently. In case of rectangular tanks, structural coupling between adjacent panels and effect of vibration modes of multiple panels on added mass of water have to be considered. In the previous report, a numerical analysis is performed for the coupling effect between panels of a tank on added mass of containing fluid, the effect of structural constraint between panels on each vibration mode for fluid region, and mode characteristics in accordance with changing breadth of the plates by using finite element method for plates and boundary element method for fluid region. In this paper, the coupling effect between panels of a tank on added mass of containing fluid, the effect of structural constraint between panels on each vibration mode for fluid region, and mode characteristics in accordance with changing length, thickness, and boundary condition of the plates are investigated numerically and discussed.

We present new BVR CCD photometric light curves for the close binary star V445 Cep. A new photometric solution and absolute physical dimensions of the system were derived by applying the Wilson-Devinney program to our observed light curves and radial velocity curves published by Pych et al. The evolutional status of V445 Cep was found to coincide with those of the general low mass ratio contact binary systems.

The dynamic characteristic of a wrist power transmission examine closely with mass property, to present the model which induce the vibration is ultimately the purpose. A robot wrist power transmission for analysis model got the mass property through the approach to be the experimental. A bearing equivalent stiffness which supports the axis and a gear contact equivalent stiffness are determined by the simplicity analysis model compared the result of the experiment. We calculate the vibration tendency of the robot wrist power transmission by an analysis tool which is called the RecurDyn. We compared it with a signal analysis experiment's which a robot operation happens which is based on the ambient noise.

A level set method is combined with the volume-of-fluid method so that the coupled method can not only calculate an interfacial curvature accurately but also can achieve mass conservation well. The coupled level set and volume-of-fluid(CLSVOF) method is efficiently implemented by employing an interface reconstruction algorithm which is based on the explicit relationship between the interface configuration and the fluid volume function. The CLSVOF method is applied for numerical simulation of droplet impact on solid surfaces with variable contact angles. The numerical results are found to preserve mass conservation and to be in good agreement with the data reported in the literature. Also, the present method proved to be applicable to the complex phenomena such as breakup and rebound of a droplet.

The Kepler mission of NASA has enabled to discover a lot of new W UMa-type binaries with continuous light curves measured with unprecedented accuracy. Interestingly, their eclipsing time variation (hereafter ETV) diagrams show anti-correlation between primary and secondary minima, presumably occurred by continuous spot variation (Tran et al. 2013; Balaji et al. 2014). Two active Kepler binaries (KIC06118779 & KIC08682849), reported as showing the anti-correlation in ETV diagram, were investigated to see that the anti-correlations are correlated with time-variable O'connell effects appeared in their light curves. As a result, it was found that the O'connell effects for two binary stars have varied in quasi-sinusoidal ways similar to the patterns of their anti-correlation variations. In addition, our light curve syntheses of two binary stars with the latest version of the Wilson-Devinney code (Wilson & devinney 1971) show that they are very deep-contact binary system with extremely low mass ratios.

The authors had done theoretical analysis of the vibration of rectangular elastic plates in contact with water. In this analysis, using the elliptic cylindrical coordinate system, they investigated the effects of mass density ratios, chord-length to thickness ratios, aspect ratios, boundary conditions and mode shapes on the added mass of plates. The results are reported in papers quoted as the reference [4] and [5] of this paper. In this report the results of experiments conducted to verify the above theoretical analysis are presented. It shows that numerical results derived from the theoretical analysis are generally in good agreement with the experimental results.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of self-actualization and demographic variables of adult women on the modesty and aethetics in the selection of clothes. The qestionnaire were completed by 647 women in taegu and jinju. The major findings of this research can be summairzed as follows : 1. Marital status has effect on the self-actualizing values. religion, occupation and income have effect on self-acceptance. Marital staus and religion have effect on nature of man. 2. Frequency of contact with mass media has effect on the modesty of clothing. Self-actualization and demographic variables have no direct effect on the modesty of clothing. 3. Self-actualizing values, self-acceptance, nature of man, income, frequency of contact with mass media have direct effect on the aethetics of clothing.

We have analyzed times of minima for six eclipsing binary systems which show asymmetric light curves. We found that five binary systems show period decrease and one system shows cyclic period variation. Three asymmetric light curves (SV Cen, RT Scl and VW Boo) are due to hot spot caused by mass transfer. Other three asymmetric light curves (AD Phe,, EZ Hya and TY Boo) are due to cool spot on the cooler component caused by magnetic activities. We also obtain absolute dimensions from photometric solution and spectroscopic solution by analyzing their light curves and radial velocity curves, collected from literatures, using 2007 version Wilson and Devinney computer code.

The metallization is the key to determining cell costs, call performance, and cell and system reliabiltiy. The Burled Contact Solar Cell (BCSC) was specifical1y desinged to be compatible tilth low cost, mass production techniques and avoid the conventional metallization problem. By using electroless plating trchniqeu, we performed this metallization inexpensively and reliabley, This paper presents the details of the optimization procedure of metallization schemes on laser grooved cell surface Commercially available Ni ,Cu, and Ag plating solutions were applied for the cell metallization. The application of those solutions on the buried contact front metalization has resulted in an cell efficiency of 18.5% The cell parameters are an open circuit voltage of 651 mV, short circuit current density of 38.6 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and fill factor of 73.5%.

This paper reports on the mixed lubrication characteristics between the cam and the tappet contact surface of direct acting type valve train systems. First, the dynamic characteristics are solved by using the lumped mass method to determine the load conditions at the contact point. Then, the minimum oil film thickness is calculated with consideration of elastohydrodynamic line contact theory and the friction force is obtained by using the mixed lubrication model which separates the hydrodynamic and the boundary friction. Finally, the average surface temperatures are calculated by using the flash temperature theory. The results show that, there are some peaks in the friction force due to the asperity contact friction, and flash temperature at the position of minimum oil film thickness. It is thought that there is a relationship between the surface temperature and cam surface wear, and therefore, the analysis on the worn cam profile has been performed.
