  • We study the set of critical exponents of discrete groups acting on regular trees. We prove that for every real number ${\delta}$ between 0 and ${\frac{1}{2}}\;{\log}\;q$, there is a discrete subgroup ${\Gamma}$ acting without inversion on a (q+1)-regular tree whose critical exponent is equal to ${\delta}$. Explicit construction of edge-indexed graphs corresponding to a quotient graph of groups are given.

  • Composites of insulating polyethylene and carbon black are widely used in switching elements, conductive paint, and other applications due to the large gap of resistance value. This research addresses the critical exponent of dielectric breakdown strength of polymer matrix composites (PMC) made with carbon black and polyethylene below the percolation threshold (Pt) for the first time. Here, Pt means the volume fraction of carbon black of which the resistance of the PMC is transferred from its sharp decrease to gradual decrease in accordance with the increase of carbon-black-filled content. First, the Pt is determined based on the critical exponents of resistivity and relative permittivity. Although huge cohesive bodies of carbon black are formed in case of being less than the Pt, a percolation path connecting the conducting phases is not formed. The dielectric breakdown strength (Dbs) of the PMC below Pt is measured by using an impulse voltage in the range from 10 kV to 40 kV to avoid the effect of joule heating. Although the observed Dbs data seems to be well fitted to a straight line with a slope of 0.9 on a double logarithm of (Pt-$V_{CB}$) and Dbs, the least squares method gives a slope of 0.97 for the PMC. It has been found that finite carbon-black clusters play an important role in dielectric breakdown.

  • In this paper, our main purpose is to establish the existence of weak solutions of a weak solutions of a class of p-q-Laplacian system involving concave-convex nonlinearities: $$\{\array{-{\Delta}_pu-{\Delta}_qu={\lambda}V(x)|u|^{r-2}u+\frac{2{\alpha}}{\alpha+\beta}|u|^{\alpha-2}u|v|^{\beta},\;x{\in}{\Omega}\\-{\Delta}p^v-{\Delta}q^v={\theta}V(x)|v|^{r-2}v+\frac{2\beta}{\alpha+\beta}|u|^{\alpha}|v|^{\beta-2}v,\;x{\in}{\Omega}\\u=v=0,\;x{\in}{\partial}{\Omega}}$$ where ${\Omega}$ is a bounded domain in $R^N$, ${\lambda}$, ${\theta}$ > 0, and 1 < ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\alpha}+{\beta}=p^*=\frac{N_p}{N_{-p}}$ is the critical Sobolev exponent, ${\Delta}_su=div(|{\nabla}u|^{s-2}{\nabla}u)$ is the s-Laplacian of u. when 1 < r < q < p < N, we prove that there exist infinitely many weak solutions. We also obtain some results for the case 1 < q < p < r < $p^*$. The existence results of solutions are obtained by variational methods.

  • 피로균열성장을 유한요소 시뮬레이션하였다. 인장시험으로 얻는 기계적 성질만을 사용하여 피로균열성장거동을 예측하려고 하였다. 유한요소해석 결과 균열선단 부근 절점의 변위의 변화를 살펴 임계균열개구변위를 결정하였다. 균열선단 절점을 분리하여 균열성장을 시뮬레이션하였다. Paris 법칙의 지수를 결정하여 이미 발표된 값과 비교하였다. 균열닫힘을 고려한 유효 응력확대계수에 관하여 그렸을 때 더 일관성이 있는 결과를 얻었다.

  • Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of increasing running speed on human stability by comparing the Lyapunov Exponent (LyE) and Coefficient of Variation (CV) methods, with the goal of identifying key variables and uncovering new insights. Method: Fourteen adult males (age: 24.7 ± 6.4 yrs, height: 176.9 ± 4.6 cm, weight: 74.7 ± 10.9 kg) participated in this study. Results: In the CV method, significant differences were observed in ankle (flexion-inversion/eversion; p < .05) and hip joint (internal-external rotation; p < .05) movements, while the center of mass (COM) variable in the coronal axis movements showed a significant difference at the p < .001 level. In the LyE method, statistical differences were observed at the p < .05 level in knee (flexion-extension), hip joint (internal-external rotation) movements, and COM across all three directions (sagittal, coronal, and transverse axis). Conclusion: Our results revealed that the stability of the human body is affected at faster running speeds. The movement of the COM and ankle joint were identified as the most critical factors influencing stability. This suggests that LyE, a nonlinear time series analysis, should be actively introduced to better understand human stabilization strategies.

  • Consider the problem $-div($\mid$\bigtriangledown_u$\mid$^{p-2}\bigtriangledown_u) = $\mid$u$\mid$^{p^*-2}u + \lambda$\mid$u$\mid$^{q-2}u$ in B, u = 0 on $\partial B$; where $B \subset R^n$ is a ball, $\lambda < 0, 1 < p < n$ and $p^* = \frac{np}{n-p}$ is the critical Sobolev exponent. For given $\lambda > 0$, we show that there exists $k = k(\lambda) \in N$ such that any radial solutions to this problem have at most k noda curves when $p \leq q \leq p^* - 1$.

  • Sputtering 방법으로 유리기판위에 50-nm Fe 박막을 증착하여 박하우젠 현상을 연구하였다. 실험실 자체 제작 장비인 광자기 현미경을 사용하여 박하우젠 점프가 일어나는 동안 자구 이미지를 촬영함으로써 박하우젠 현상을 실시간으로 직접 관찰하였다. 자구 이미지들을 관찰한 결과 박하우젠 점프가 같은 실험조건에서 측정되었음에도 불구하고 매우 무작위적인 모습을 보이는 것을 확인하였다. 1000번 이상의 측정을 통해 박하우젠 점프크기의 통계분포를 구하였는데, 점프크기의 분포가 거듭제곱법칙 분포를 보임을 확인하였고, 임계지수는 1.14 $\pm$ 0.03의 값을 보임을 확인하였다.

  • We study existence of positive solutions of the classical nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equation $-{\Delta}u\;+\;V(x)u\;-\;f(x,\;u)\;-\;H(x)u^{2*-1}\;=\;0$, u > 0 in $\mathbb{R}^n$ $u\;{\rightarrow}\;0\;as\;|x|\;{\rightarrow}\;{\infty}$. In fact, we consider the following more general quasi-linear Schr$\ddot{o}$odinger equation $-div(|{\nabla}u|^{m-2}{\nabla}u)\;+\;V(x)u^{m-1}$ $-f(x,\;u)\;-\;H(x)u^{m^*-1}\;=\;0$, u > 0 in $\mathbb{R}^n$ $u\;{\rightarrow}\;0\;as\;|x|\;{\rightarrow}\;{\infty}$, where m $\in$ (1, n) is a positive number and $m^*\;:=\;\frac{mn}{n-m}\;>\;0$, is the corresponding critical Sobolev embedding number in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Under appropriate conditions on the functions V(x), f(x, u) and H(x), existence and non-existence results of positive solutions have been established.

  • Temperature dependence of the critical micelle concentration (CMC), $x_{CMC}$, in micellization can be described by ln $x_{CMC}$ = A + BT + C lnT + D/T, which has been derived statistical-mechanically. Here A, B, C, and D are fitting parameters. The equation fits the CMC data better than conventionally used polynomial equations of temperature. Moreover, it yields the unique(exponent) value of 2 when the CMC is expressed in a power-law form. This finding is quite significant, because it may point to the universality of the thermal behavior of CMC. Hence, in this article, the nature of the equation ln $x_{CMC}$ = A + BT + C lnT + D/T is examined from a lattice-theory point of view through the Flory-Huggins model. It is found that a linear behavior of heat capacity change of micellization is responsible for the CMC equation of temperature.
