Since shape, size and distribution of particles in particulate composites have spreaded characteristics, properties of particulate composites have variation and also system behavior using particulate composites have variation. However, it is difficult to consider spreaded characteristic of particles so that a system behavior is analysed using homogeneous techniques or using microstructure in local areas. In this study, for considering random variation of particles, RMDFs(random morphology description functions) are used to generate random microstructure and relationship between the number of gaussian functions and spreaded characteristic of particles was analysed using the geometrical moment of area. Also, multi-scale analysis was carried out for cantilever beam with full-random microstructure to study behavior of particulate composites structure. As a result, it is defined that spreaded characteristic of particles and the variation of deflections of cantilever beam are decreased as the number of Gaussian functions(N) is increased and converges at N=200.

Removal characteristics of Mn and Co was studied from the contaminated solutions via surface reaction with various calcium carbonate (calcite). Synthetic calcium carbonates which has different surface morphology as well as surface areas were prepared by a spontaneous precipitation method and used. Mn and Co removal behavior by the different solid surface demonstrate characteristic sorption behaviors depend on the type of calcite used, such as surface area or surface morphology. Calcium carbonate crystals (mostly calcite) which exhibit complicated surface morphology (c-type) shows strong sorption affinity for Mn and Co removal via sorption than on the a-type or b-type calcite crystals of less complicated surfaces. The applicability of two kinetic models, the pseudo-first-order kinetic equation and the Elovich kinetic model was examined on these sorption behavior. Elovich kinetic model was found more suitable to explain the very early stage adsorption kinetics, while the pseudo-first-order kinetic equation was successfully fitted for the adsorption kinetics after 50 hours.

The goal of refining is to treat fibers so they meet the requirements of the papermaking process. The refining process in papermaking has great influence on the quality of the final product by changing the fiber properties, such as fiber length, shape, fine contents and so on. In this study, the effect on the morphological change of fibers by the refining conditions were investigated using the fiber morphology analyzer. Fiber morphology analyzer used to determine which pulps are suitable for producing particular products. Furthermore it is widely used in paper mills to monitor paper quality. The morphological change of fibers according to refining conditions were evaluated out by measuring fiber, shive and fine. In the fiber morphology, the domestic reconstituted tobacco fiber has the bigger average fiber length value than that of the foreign reconstituted tobacco.

The elecronic absorption and surface morphology evolution of two types of molecular double layer thin films, copper phthalocyanine(CuPc) layer deposited on top of chloro[subphtalocyaninato]boron(III) (SubPc) layer, denoted as SubPc/CuPc, and vice versa, at various thicknesses were invertigated using ultraviolet(UV)-visible spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Both types of double layer structures showed similar broadened absorption patterns in UV-visible region which were well consistent with fitted spectra by a simple linear combination of single layer absorption spectra of two materials. In contrast, the surface morphology of double layer structures was dependent on the order of deposition. For CuPc/SubPc structures, the surface morphology was characterized by elongated grains, characteristic of SubPc thin films, indicating the morphological influence of underlying CuPc layer on subsequent SubPc layer was not large. For SubPc/CuPc structures, however, the underlying SubPc layer acted as a morphological template for the subsequently deposited CuPc layer. It was also observed that the grain size of CuPc layer varied by the thickness of underlying SubPc layer.

In this study, in order to confirm the application possibility to the molecular electronic device, morphlogical property of the Arachidic acid was investigated. We have investigated morphology by BAM image and AFM. ${\pi}$-A curves investigated surface pressure of this LB film from liquid to solid state ranged between 40 to 45 mN/m. BAM images investigated the different states of Arachidic Acid LB film. When the surface pressure reaches at 40 mN/m, the monolayer was deposited onto the hydrophilic glass substrates by Y-type deposition. We also investigated the frequency characteristics of LB modified glass by QCM. We investigated morphology of arachidic acid by AFM. As a result, we obtained the frequency characteristic and morphology of LB films from controlling the deposited layers.

The most important work for early detection of liver cancer and decision of its characteristic and location is good segmentation of a liver region from other abdominal organs. This paper proposes a fully automatic liver segmentation algorithm based on the abdominal morphology characteristic as an easy and efficient method. Multi-modal threshold as pre-processing is peformed and a spine is segmented for finding morphological coordinates of an abdomen. Then the liver region is extracted using C-class maximum a posteriori (MAP) decision and morphological filtering. In order to estimate results of the automatic segmented liver region, area error rate (AER) and correlation coefficients of rotational binary region projection matching (RBRPM) are utilized. Experimental results showed automatic liver segmentation obtained by the proposed algorithm provided strong similarity to manual liver segmentation.

The effect of reaction parameters in the characteristic of $Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ (below nominal PZT) powders by SHS was investigated in this study. In the preparation of PZT, the effect of starting material contents, pressure, additive on phase fraction and morphology was investigated respectively. The optimum condition of PZT powders were prepared by SHS is $0.37Pb_3O_4+0.52ZrO_2+0.48TiO_2+0.35KClO_3+0.5C,\;(P_{Ar}= 50 atm)$. The PZT powder synthesized in this condition had an spherical shape and the particle size of 0.8$\mu$m.

The most part of the faculty drop a trouble and damage of machine equipment even if whatever cause they break out take place at local and trifling place and the factor dominating their trouble is due to wear debris occurred in the lubricated machine moving surface. This study has been car-ried out to identify morphology of wear debris on the lubricated machine moving system by means of computer image analysis. Namely the wear debris contained in lubricating oil extracted from movable machine equipment will be filtered through membrane filter(void diameter 0.45${\mu}m$) and will be analyzed with its data information such as 50% volume diameter aspect roundness and reflectivity. Morphological characteristic of wear debris is easily distinguished by four shape parameters it is necessary to divide small class of every 100 wear debris in total wear particles in order to distinguish morphological characteristic of wear debris more easily by computer image analysis. We are sure that operation condition diagnosis of the lubricated machine moving surfaces is possible by computer image analysis.

This paper is concerned with the 2-D micostructure generation for $Ni-A{\ell}_2O_3$ dual-phase composite materials and the numerical analysis of mechanical characteristic of hierarchical models of microstructure which are defined in terms of the scale of microstructure. The microstructures of dual-phase composite materials were generated by applying the mathematical RMDF(random morphology description functions) technique to a 2-D RVE of composite materials. And, the hierarchical models of microstructure were defined by the number of Gaussian points. Meanwhile, the volume fractions of metal and ceramic particles were set by adjusting the level of RMD functions. The microstructures which were generated by RMDF technique are definitely random even though the total number of Gaussian points is the same. The randomly generated microstructures were applied to a 2-D beam model, and the variation of normal and shear stresses to the scale of microstructure was numerically investigated. In addition, through the crack analyses, the influence of RMDF randomness and Gauss point number on the crack-tip stress is investigated.

We have analyzed the external morphology and the environment of the foraging site of Vespertilio sinensis. The external morphology was analyzed by twelve parameters and the environment characteristics of the foraging site was analyzed using GIS 10.1 program. The wing membrane was inserted into the ankle of the hind foot and the wing ratio was 1.42, the middle type between broad-short wing type and long-narrow wing type. The fur color was blackish brown but the guard hair color was whitish. The shape of the ear was a rounded triangle and tragus was a fan shape. This study showed that V. sinensis preferred the deciduous forest of the upper forest zone, where human interference was less. We believed that abundance of insects, depending on water system, was closely related to the use of the foraging site. This result showed that the environment characteristics was very similar to the nature preservation zone including Baekyang valley and Keumsun valley in Naejangsan National Park.
