In jet engines, turbine blade cooling has an extremely important role. The pin-fin array, which is situated close to the trailing edge of the blade, aids in internal cooling of the gas turbine blades and preserves the structural integrity of the blade. Previous studies often focused on pin-fin configurations, but the current research focuses on improving the geometry at the endwalls to reduce wake vortices behind the pin-fins and enhance heat transfer at the endwalls location. Using the k-ω turbulence model, a numerical study was conducted on a ribbed shape situated on the walls between pin-fin arrays, spanning a Reynolds number range of 7400 to 36000, in order to determine the heat transport characteristics. The heat transfer efficiency coefficient and Nusselt number increase dramatically with the revised wall configuration, according to the numerical data. The channel's heat transfer efficiency is increased by enlarging the heat transfer areas near the pin-fins and by the interaction of the flow with the endwalls. The addition of ribs causes the Nusselt number of the new model to climb from 78% to 96% at the previously given Reynolds numbers, and the heat transfer efficiency index to rise from 60% to 73%. The height (Hr), position (Lr), forward width (Wf), and backward width (Wb) of the ribs are among the geometric elements that were looked at in order to determine how they affected the performance of heat transmission. In comparison to the reference design, the parametric study results demonstrate that the best forward width (Wf/R=18.75%) and backward width (Wb/R=31.25%) increase the heat transfer efficiency index by 0.4% and 1.3%, respectively.

We studied the antibacterial effect and mechanical properties of PLA composites with in organic porous zeolite-type bacteriocides. The specimens were prepared by an intermeshing co-rotating twin screw extruder using different contents of inorganic bacteriocide. The degree of dispersion of the in organic bacteriocide in the PLA composite was confirmed by FE-SEM. The contents of Ag and Zn in the composite were also investigated by energy dispersive spectroscopy at different concentrations of the inorganic bacteriocide. The antibacterial effects were analyzed by turbidity analysis, shaking culture, and drop-test. The mechanical properties, such as the tensile and flexural properties, impact strength, and physical properties, were also investigated. As the content of inorganic bacteriocide increased, the antibacterial activity was increased, especially against Staphylococcus aureus. Mechanical properties, namely, tensile strength, elongation, flexural strength, and impact strength, tended to decrease with an increase in inorganic bacteriocide content, but the tensile and flexural modulus increased.

In this work, chemical solution derived Ca-doped zirconia fiber has been prepared by using calcium- and zirconium-naphthenate. Fibrous $ZrO_2$-CaO was drawn from a sticky mixture. Dried gel fibers were finally annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in argon. 91 mol%$ZrO_2$-9 mol%CaO fiber consisted of tetragonal, monoclinic and $CaZrO_3$ phases after annealing at $1000^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, samples annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ consisted of almost tetragonal single phase. Homogeneous fibers surface at $500^{\circ}C$ became rougher after $1000^{\circ}C$-annealing. The sample annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$ with relatively rough surface structure showed a high Calcium phocphate forming ability.

The polyurethane was synthesized by the reaction of polycaprolactone diol(Mw 2000), 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and 1,4-butanediol as the chain extender. Also, the modified polyurethane polymers based on liquid polybutadiene as a part of soft segment and dimethylolpropionic acid as a chain extender, giving polyurethane with various polarity, were synthesized. The thermal, mechanical, adhesion properties and water contact angles of the polyurethanes were examined. From the result of the water contact angle, the polarity of the acid modified PU containing 6% acid content was unchanged but mechanical and adhesion properties were improved. The water contact angles on polybutadiene modified PU films were increased with increasing polybutadiene content. The mechanical properties of the polybutadiene modified PU were higher than that of acid modified PU. However, the mechanical properties were reduced as polybutadiene content increased. The result is presumably due to phase separation between hard segment and soft segment. The peel strength of the polyurethane introduced with 5wt% polybutadiene was improved about 150% than that of unmodified PU. The same as the mechanical properties, the more polybutadiene was introduced, the lower peel strength was obtained.

The study about VR (Virtual Reality) has been done from the 1960s, but technical limits and high cost made VR hard to commercialize. However, in recent, high resolution display, computing power and 3D sensing have developed and hardware has become affordable. Therefore, normal users can get high quality of immersion and interaction. However, HMD devices which offer VR environment have high latency, so it disrupts the VR environment. People are usually sensitive to relative latency over 20ms. In this paper, as adding the Electromyogram (EMG) sensors to typical IMU sensor only system, the latency reduction method is proposed. By changing software and hardware components, some cases the latency was reduced significantly. Hence, this study covers the possibility and the experimental verification about EMG sensors for reducing the latency.

The compression of CAD models is a key technology for realizing Internet-based collaborative product development because big model sizes often prohibit us to achieve a rapid product information transmission. Although there exist some algorithms for compressing discrete CAD models, original precise CAD models are focused on in this paper. Here, the characteristics of hierarchical structures in CAD models and the distribution of their redundant data are exploited for developing a novel data encoding method. In the method, different encoding rules are applied to different types of data. Geometric data is a major concern for reducing model sizes. For geometric data, the control points of B-spline curves and surfaces are compressed with the second-order predictions in a local coordinate system. Based on analysis to the distortion induced by quantization, an efficient method for computation of the distortion is provided. The results indicate that the data size of CAD models can be decreased efficiently after compressed with the proposed method.

A pressurized vessel-pipe-safety valve (PVPSV) combination is a commonly used configuration in nuclear power plants, and a good numerical model is essential for the system design, sizing and performance optimization. However, owing to the large-scale and cross-scale features, it is still a challenge to build a system level numerical model with both high accuracy and efficiency. To overcome this, a novel system level modeling method which can synthesize the advantages of various models is proposed in this paper. For system modeling, the analytical approach, the method of characteristics (MOC) and the surrogate model approach are respectively adopted to predict the dynamics of the pressure vessel, the connecting pipe and the safety valve, and different models are connected through data interfaces. With this system model, dynamic simulations were carried out and both the stable and the unstable system responses were obtained. For the model verification purpose, the simulation results were compared with those obtained from experiments and full CFD simulations. A good agreement and a better efficiency were obtained, verifying the ability of the model and the feasibility of the modeling method proposed in this paper.
