Wake characteristics of the flow over a finite square prism at different incidence angles were experimentally investigated using an open-loop wind tunnel. A finite square prism with a width D = 15 mm and a height H = 7D was vertically mounted on a horizontal flat plate. The Reynolds number was varied from $6.5{\times}10^3$ to $28.5{\times}10^3$ and the incidence angle ${\alpha}$ was changed from $0^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}$. The ratio of boundary layer thickness to the prism height was about ${\delta}/H=7%$. The time-averaged velocity, turbulence intensity and the vortex shedding frequency were obtained through a single-component hotwire probe. Power spectrum of the streamwise velocity fluctuations revealed that the tip and base vortices shed at the same frequency as that ofspanwise vortices. Furthermore, the results showed that the critical incidence angle corresponding to the maximum Strouhal number and minimum wake width occurs at ${\alpha}_{cr}=15^{\circ}$ which is equal to that reported for an infinite prism. There is a reduction in the size of the wake region along the height of the prism when moving away from the ground plane towards the free end.

Three-dimensional finite element analyses have been performed to improve the durability of bulkhead. To keep pace with design changes and concentrate on regions of interest, SUBMODEL technique in ABAQUS was used for analysis. An analysis was conducted with following load cases: 1) Cap press-fit, 2) Bearing crush, 3) Bolt assembly, 4) Hot assembly, 5) Firing load, 6) Alternating firing load, 7) 2nd hot assembly. Fatigue analysis was done using commercial software FEMFAT and fatigue factors at the interested regions such as bolt tip area, counter bore, breathing hole, honing clearance were calculated and compared to aid design validation. Finite element modeling in the area of thread engagement used a simple constraint equations. Increasing bolt length, to a minimum of 39 mm above joint face gives a better fatigue resistance to the bulkhead. Breathing hole helps not only circulate the air in the crankcase but also fatigue resistance of bulkhead by relieving the stress at the critical locations.

Surface tension as a function of concentration and temperature was measured for aquous solution of sodium N-acyl sarcosinate, $RCON(CH_{3})CH_{2}$ COONa, From the intersection points in the (${\gamma}-logC$) curves, the critical micelle concentration (cmc) was determined at 20, 30, 40, and $50^{\circ}C$. Structural effects on the cmc maximum and the minimum area per molecule at the aquous solution/air interface were discussed. The free energy, enthalpy, and entropy of micellization and adsorption of surfactant solution also were investigated. Numberous investigators have dealt with sodium N-acyl sarcosinates and their applications as wettings, flooding and reducing agents and as corrosion inhibitors.

Various services such as IPTV(Internet Protocol TV), Internet Telephony are provided through multiple ISPs(Internet Service Providers) as ICT technologies are evolving. This paper suggests that the end-to-end Internet service quality evaluation method, which is optimized for domestic environment based on international standards. The end-to-end service quality determines the quality of IPTV and Internet Telephony services and is critical factor for subjective quality as well. As a result, time delay, jitter and packet loss rate are three elements for the quality evaluation. It is also shown that these factors can be predicted with traditional statistical method by sharing minimum amount of information between ISPs.

We are developing a small-sized superconducting magnetic energy storge ($\mu$SMES) magnet with the storage capacity of a few megajoules, which provides electric power with high quality to sensitive electric loads. A kA class superconductor with a high coppe $r^erconductor ratio was selected as a candidate conductor. The superconductor was tested in two points of view, which are basic and important in development of the $\mu$SMES magnet. First, stabilities of the superconductor against localized disturbances such as wire motions were estimated by using a wire heater. Second, the quench current characteristics for different charge rates were also tested. The stability data showed that the short heat pulses made the conductor more unstable. The superconductor had relatively high recovery currents ranging between 40% and 50% of its critical currents. The quench tests indicated that the quench currents of the conductor were independent of current ramp rates up to 3000 A/s and nearly equal to its cuitical current data.ta.

The optimum blasting pattern to excavate a quarry efficiently and economically can be determined based on the minimum production cost, which is generally estimated according to rock fragmentation. Therefore, it is a critical problem to predict fragment size distribution of blasted rocks over an entire quarry. By comparing various prediction models, it can be ascertained that the result obtained from Kuz-Ram model relatively coincides with that of field measurements. Kuz-Ram model uses the concept of rock factor to signify conditions of rock mass such as block size, rock jointing, strength and others. For the evaluation of total production cost, it is imperative to estimate 3-D spatial distribution of rock factor for the entire quarry. In this study, a sequential indicator simulation technique is adopted for estimation of spatial distribution of rock factor due to its higher reproducibility of spatial variability and distribution models than Kriging methods. Further, this can reduce the uncertainty of predictor using distribution information of sample data. The entire quarry is classified into three types of rock mass and optimum blasting pattern is proposed for each type based on 3-D spatial distribution of rock factor. In addition, plane maps of rock factor distribution for each ground level are provided to estimate production costs for each process and to make a plan for an optimum blasting pattern.

In ad hoc network, the scarce energy management of the mobile devices has become a critical issue in order to extend the network lifetime. Current research activity for the Minimum Energy Multicast (MEM) problem has been focused on devising efficient centralized greedy algorithms for static ad hoc networks. In this paper, we consider mobile ad hoc networks(MANETs) that could provide the reliable monitoring and control of a variety of environments for remote place. Mobility of MANET would require the topology change frequently compared with a static network. To improve the routing protocol in MANET, energy efficient routing protocol would be required as well as considering the mobility would be needed. In this paper, we propose a new method, the CACH(Context-aware Clustering Hierarchy) algorithm, a hybrid and clustering-based protocol that could analyze the link cost from a source node to a destination node. The proposed analysis could help in defining the optimum depth of hierarchy architecture CACH utilize. The proposed CACH could use localized condition to enable adaptation and robustness for dynamic network topology protocol and this provide that our hierarchy to be resilient. As a result, our simulation results would show that CACH could find energy efficient depth of hierarchy of a cluster.

In separating mycelia from antibiotic fermentation broths, high permeate flux was obtained by cross-flow filtration using modified regenerated cellulose membrane. The flux was increased most effectively by increasing the flow rate. There existed a critical mycelium density (about 20% PMV) at which the highest flux was observed. In a batchwise concentration of the fermentation broth, the system suffered from a severe fouling problem, which was relieved drastically by applying diafiltration technique, although it increased the permeate volume. A combined concentration/diafiltration process was ideal in keeping relatively high flux together with a high product recovery yield. The best result was obtained by starting diafiltration after concentrating the broth to 20% PMV. By doing so, a 98% product recovery yield was achieved in the shortest time while keeping the permeate volume at a minimum level.

The physiochemical properties of extracellular lipid produced by an oleaginous yeast, Rhodotorula glutinis K-501 were examined. From the analytical experiments, it was suggested that the extracellular lipid produced is glycolipidic compound. Critical micelle concentration and minimum surface tension of the extracellular lipid in aqueous solution were 89mg/L and 31dyne/cm, respectively. Surface tension was also constant throughout wide range of pH. The emulsifying abilities and dispersing power of the extracellular lipid were much greater than those of commercial surfactants such as Tween 80 and Triton X-100 by factors of 2-3 and 1.3, respectively.
