The failure modes of pneumatic directional control valves include leakage, wear of the spool seal, and sticking of the spool. Among them, the main failure mode of the valve is leakage. The leakage is caused by the wear of the spool seal. However, due to the characteristics of the seal material, the leakage rate is fluctuated a lot rather than constantly increased over time. If life analysis is performed using the first time data of leakage failure, predicted life cycles can be different from the real life cycles. This paper predicts life cycles of the pilot pneumatic directional control valve based on the three point moving average which considers the average of the fluctuating leakage rate.

The leakage in the water distribution system means both the loss of money and water resource. To minimize the leakage, we introduced the pressure control method using the pressure reducing valve and pump schedule. For the pressure control, the total leakage is needed to divide into each node. In this study, EPANET 2.0 was used to simulate the water networks in two selected blocks after the total leakage was distributed with each node by four ways. The leakage was allocated into each node as water measured by meter, water pressure, water faucets and Lpcd and simulated by EPANET 2.0. Regardless of the leakage distribution ways, there was no significant difference between the measured water and the estimated water pressure. Thus, the leakage distribution way using water pressures estimated by simulation could be recommended. The scenarios controlling the pressure reducing valve and pump were made in two blocks(A and B). $86,713m^3/year$ leakage in the A block and $11,442m^3/year$ in the B block could be reduced as controlling the pressure reducing valve and pump schedule. It was shown that the fifty million won a year can be saved in the A block and 6.8 million won in the B block.

Due to reduced device sizes and threshold voltages, leakage current becomes an important issue in CMOS design. In a CMOS combinational logic circuit, the leakage current in the standby state depends on the state of the inputs and thus can be minimized by applying an optimal input when the circuit is idling. In this paper, we present a New Input Vector Control algorithm, called Leakage Minimization by Input vector Control (LMIC) for minimal leakage power. This algorithm finds the minimal leakage vector and reduces leakage current up to 22.% on the average, for TSMC 0.18um process parameters. Minimal leakage vectors are very useful in reducing leakage currents in standby mode of operation.

The quantity of alternating current (AC) leakage and the value of distortion factor in capacitor currents are discussed with regard to a new power component called variable capacitance device (VCD). This component has terminals for controlling its capacitance. Nonlinear dielectric characteristics are utilized in this device to vary the capacitance. When VCD operates in an AC circuit, the AC leakage from this device through direct current (DC) control voltage source increases according to the conditions of DC control voltage and so on. To solve this problem, we propose techniques for suppressing AC leakage. Although VCD has strong nonlinear characteristics, the current through the capacitor is not distorted significantly. The relations between AC leakage and the distortion in current waveforms are investigated. An application example for an AC power regulator is also introduced to evaluate the distortion in waveforms.

This paper presents an analysis of a leakage inductance for a toroidal type flyback transformer. The equation to calculate the leakage inductance is derived using the MMF diagram of the transformer. The analysis for the different types of the cores and winding structures is also provided using the FEM simulation. The winding structures minimizing the leakage inductance are finally discussed from the simulation and experimental results.

Social development as well as the development of consumer electronic devices due to leakage, electric shock or fire, and many are exposed to the risk of leakage currents. Premises in the control cabinet, but the circuit breaker is installed, the existing circuit breaker shuts off when a short circuit in the control cabinet, installed only have the capability. Also connected to the outlet is installed byeokmada family of devices is not easy thing to check individually. In this paper, circuit breakers and circuit analysis and circuit performance, ZigBee-based premises of consumer electronics devices using sensors to monitor the health of the leakage can be presented on how. Performance analysis, the proposed ELB leakage current control system is built into the appliance leakage circuit breaker for each household appliances because the application can check the status of a short circuit, short circuit, over the existing system can be monitored easily.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal leakage of composite resin. Preparing 144 class V cavities on freshly extracted noncarious teeth, composite resins were prepared and inserted by one dentist according to the manufacturer's instructions. The experiments were performed in two different groups; In group I; Class V cavities with $90^{\circ}$ cavosurface angle, In group II; Class V cavities with $135^{\circ}$ cavosurface angle. And each group was divided 2 subgroups; In control group; composite resin restoraions without acid etch technique. In experimental group; composite resin restorations with acid etch technique. All specimens were immersed in 0.05% crystal violet solution. Before examination, the restored teeth were subjected to thermal stress. The specimens were sectioned occlusogingivally through the center of the restorations with a diamond disk. The sections were examined under a reflected light microscope at 1 day, 7 days and 30 days after immersing the specimens in dye solution. The results were as follows; 1. Control group of group I and group II showed marginal leakage. 2. The degree of marginal leakage in experimental group was greater reduced than control group. 3. In control group, the degree of marginal leakage in group I was greater than group II. 4. In experimental group, there is not statistical differences of the degree of marginal leakage between group I & group II.

On this Study, it conducts the Standards investigation about air leakage of Buildings for performance improvement of Smoke control in Fire. In domestic standards, it is incomplete the Criteria standards of air leakage. Therefore it is considered that won't limit the smoke spread due to stack effect. But in the case of the United States, it conducts the Hot smoke air-Leakage test and it consider that can prevent the Smoke Spread in Compartment.
