The a.c. technique is employed to evaluate electrochemical characteristics of Naphthalie-1,4,5,8-tetracarboxylic acid bisanilide (NTB). The measurements were carried out in dry and pure propionitrle (PCN) and acetonitrile(CAN) at the hanging mercury drop electrode [HMDE). An A.C. phase sensitive detector using computer controlled lock-in amplifier was employed. Primary goal of this report, was to establish on a firm the rare behavior of the phase angle associated with a.c. polarograms of the compound. Although, not an initial goal of this study, the electron transfer rate parameters attending the electroreduction of the compound under investigation were determined. This because the results shed some light on the electrokinetics in aprotic solvent which until recently negligible data were available. Experimental Results and comparison of data obtained are reported. The good precision of the method makes it suitable for studying electrochemical data with unusual behavior at electrodes in non aqueous media.

This paper presents a design strategy of SPOKE type BLDC motors considering an irreversible demagnetization of a permanent magnet (PM). So the irreversible demagnetization characteristic of the motor is analyzed by rotor structure. The instantaneous currents in either starting or lock rotor condition, which are calculated from the current dynamic analysis, are applied to the analysis of the irreversible demagnetization field by FEM. In irreversible demagnetization analysis by FEM, the variation of residual flux density in PM is analyzed using the non-linearity of magnetic core on B-H plan. The analysis results are compared to several rotor structures and used for optimize the rotor structure.

In this paper we confirm the disappearance of dynamic lock-in simply by increasing the dither noise magnitude of the ring laser gyroscope by numerical and experimental method. After that, we numerically study the relation between the dither noise forms and scale factor non-linearities by comparing those of the two case outputs which are individually generated by operating with the two types of dither noise forms. The first one is the simple form composed of consecutive alternations of the random increasing and decreasing parts but maximum and minimum dither envelopes are scarcely changeable. And the second one is similar to the first one but maximum and minimum dither envelopes are randomly changable. As a result, we find that the scale factor non-linearity could be improved by the second one. And we confirm those results by experimental measurements.

In order to determine the three-dimensional position in photogrammetry, a spatial resection is a pre-requisite step to determine exterior orientation parameters. The existing spatial resection method is a non-linear equation that requires initial values of exterior orientation parameters and has a problem that a gimbal lock phenomenon may occur. On the other hand, the spatial resection using quaternion is a closed form solution that does not require initial values of EOP (Exterior Orientation Parameters) and is a method that can eliminate the problem of gimbal lock. In this study, to analyze the stability of the quaternion-based spatial resection, the exterior orientation parameters were determined according to the different layout of control points and were compared with the determined values using existing non-linear equation. As a result, it can be seen that the quaternionbased spatial resection is affected by the layout of the control points. Therefore, if the initial value of exterior orientation parameters could not be obtained, it would be more effective to estimate the initial exterior orientation values using the quaternion-based spatial resection and apply it to the collinearity equation-based spatial resection method.

Flash memories are one of best media to support portable computer's storages in mobile computing environment. The features of non-volatility, low power consumption, and fast access time for read operations are sufficient grounds to support flash memory as major database storage components of portable computers. However, we need to improve traditional transaction management scheme due to the relatively slow characteristics of flash operation as compared to RAM memory. in order to achieve this goal, we devise a new scheme called Flash Two Phase Locking (F2PL) scheme for efficient transaction processing. F2Pl improves transaction performance by allowing multi version reads and efficiently handling slow flash write/erase operation in lock management process. We also propose a simulation model to show the performance of F2PL. Based on the results of the performance evaluation, we conclude that F2PL scheme outperforms the traditional scheme.

This paper presents a proof-of-concept study on the evaluation of torsional vibration isolation performance through in-situ output torque measurement by using a non-contacting magneto-elastic torque transducer installed in the vehicle driveline system. The de-trending processing is first conducted to extract the torsional vibration from the measured driveline output torque. In order to estimate the transmissibility, primary performance indicator of a vibration isolator, the magnitude of transmitted torsional vibration with different frequencies is compared. From the conservative estimation results, the torsional damper built in a lock-up clutch of a torque converter is identified to be a vibration isolator. The evaluation results show that the fluid damping by torque converter outperforms the vibration isolation function of a torsional damper, and the isolation performance needs to be enhanced.

The multi-dielectric layer SiO$_{2}$/Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$/SiO$_{2}$(ONO) is used to improve electrical capacitance and to scale down the memory device. In this paper, improvement of the capacitance by reducing the bottom oxide thickness in the nitride deposition with load lock(L/L) vacuum system is studied. Bottom oxide thickness under the nitride layer is measured by ellipsometer both in L/L and non-L/L systems. Both results are in the range of 3-10.angs. and 10-15.angs., respectively, independent of the nitride and top oxide thickness. Effective thickness and cell capacitance for SONOS capacitor are in the range of 50-52.angs. and 35-37fF respectively in the case of nitride 70.angs. in L/L vacuum system. Compared with non-L/L system, the bottom oxide thickness in the case of L/L system decreases while cell capacitance increases about 4 fF. The results obtained in this study are also applicable to ONO scaling in the thin bottom oxide region of memory stacked capacitor.

An experimental investigation of two-dimensional steady natural convection cooling in a vertical open top cavity with conducting side walls of finite thickness is presented. The various heat-generating discrete heaters are located on one vertical wall of the cavity. When each heater dissipates different amount of power, the purpose of the work is to obtain the optimal array condition of the heaters. The four cases of non-uniform heating conditions are considered. The temperature fields in the cavity were visualized by the interferometer and local temperatures of the vertical wall were measured by thermocouples. The heaters were arranged in two configurations: flush-mounted on a vertical wall or protruding from the wall about 4.5 mm. The vertical wall was constructed out of copper or epoxy-resin sheet. Experiments have been conducted for air with constant Prandtl number(Pr=0.7), the aspect ratio of 4.6, 7.5, 9.5, power input in the range of 0.9 W ~ 4.2 W. For the enhancement of the cooling effectiveness, the upper and lower of vertical wall would give the better position for the heaters of higher heat flux.

The wall thinning defect of nuclear power pipe is mainly occurred by the affect of the flow accelerated corrosion (FAC) of fluid. This type of defect becomes the cause of damage or destruction of in carbon steel pipes. Therefore, it is very important to measure defect which is existed not only on the welding part but also on the whole field of pipe. This study use dual-beam Shearography, which can measure the out-of-plane deformation and the in-plane deformation by using another illuminated laser beam and simple image processing technique. And this study proposes Infrared thermography, which is a two-dimensional non-contact nondestructive evaluation that can detect internal defects from the thermal distribution by the inspection of infrared light radiated from the object surface. In this paper, defect of nuclear power pipe were, measured using dual-beam shearography and infrared thermography, quantitatively evaluated by the analysis of phase map and thermal image pattern.

Recently, to alleviate the memory bottleneck problme occurred in Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) architecture, Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) architecture was proposed. In addition, since an aggregation operator is an important operator providing properties and summary of data, the efficiency of the aggregation operator is crucial to overall performance of a system. Thus, in this paper, we propose an efficient aggregation processing technique on NUMA architecture. Our proposed technique consists of partition phase and merge phase. In the partition phase, the target relation is partitioned into several partial relations according to grouping attribute. Thus, since each thread can process aggregation operator on partial relation independently, we prevent the remote memory access during the merge phase. Furthermore, at the merge phase, we improve the performance of the aggregation processing by letting each thread compute aggregation with a local hash table as well as avoiding lock contention to merge aggregation results generated by all threads into one.
