  • Natural convection flows in a cubical air-filled slanted cavity that has one pair of opposing faces isothermal at different temperatures, $T_h\;and\;T_c$, respectively, the remaining four faces having a linear variation from $T_c\;toT_h$ are numerically simulated by a solution code (PowerCFD) using unstructured cell-centered method. Special attention is paid to three-dimensional flow and thermal characteristics according to a new orientation (diamond type) for the cubical-cavity benchmark problem in natural convection. Comparisons of the average Nusselt number at the cold face are made with experimental benchmark solutions found in the literature. It is found that the code is capable of producing accurately the nature of the laminar convection in a cubical air-filled slanted cavity with differentially heated walls.

  • High pressure x-ray diffraction study was performed on a synthetic FeOOH-goethite to check out its compressibility at room temperature. Angular dispersive x-ray diffraction method was employed using a symmetrical diamond anvil cell with synchrotron radiation. Bulk modulus was determined to be 222.8 GPa under assumption of $K_{T'}$ of 4.0. This value is too high comparing with the previously published values from natural samples. It has been discussed the possible causes to incur its high bulk modulus value according to the production conditions.

  • NMR experiments with various pulse repetition delay time were carried out for the $^{15}N\;and\;^{13}C$ of a natural gem diamond and synthetic diamonds. The natural gem diamond had a weak $^{13}C$ peak at 34.1ppm when 30 second pulse repetition delay time was applied. Similar but more prominent $^{13}C$ peaks were observed at 34.2 ppm with 0.5 second pulse repetition delay time and at 34.7 ppm with 50 second pulse repetition delay time for the synthetic diamonds. Any meaningful $^{15}N$ peak was not observed for either natural or synthetic diamonds due to extremely low content of the $^{15}N$. Significant relationship was observed between relative spin-lattice relaxation times we estimated and the content of impurities. however, it was not possible to distinguish natural diamond from synthetic diamonds due to very similar characteristics of their $^{13}C$ NMR signals except relative spin-lattice relaxation times.

  • We need to develop technology of identifying high temperature high pressure(HTHP) synthetic diamond and HTHP treated natural diamonds from untreated natural diamonds to cope with sophisticated diamond enhancing technology. We had successfully identified synthetic diamonds using a vibrating sample magnetometer due to their ferromagnetic property. In addition, we identified the HTHP enhanced TypeIa, TypeIIa diamonds by employing non-destructive Fourier Transform Infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy.

  • In this study, unsintered and pre-sintered low purity alumina ceramics were machined with various tools to clarify the machinability, optimum tool materials and optimum cutting conditions. The main conclusions obtained were as follows. (1)In the case of dry cutting, the sintered diamond and natural diamond tools exhibit better performance in machining of the ceramic pre-sintered at lower temperature, and the tool lives of both tools in machining the ceramics pre-sintered at high temperature becomes extremely short. (2)The performance of CBN tool becomes better in dry machining of the ceramics pre-sintered at higher temperature. (3)When the pre-sintered ceramics were wet machined with sintered diamond, the tool life becomes considerably long, and higher cutting speed can be used than in the case of the CBN and ceramic tools, the tool lives becomes shorter at wet cutting than at dry cutting, especially exhibiting extremely short tool life in wet cutting with ceramic tool.

  • In the present work, we propose a molecule (C14H14) that can be used as a building block of hexagonal diamond-type crystals and nanocrystals, including wurtzite structures. This molecule and its combined blocks are similar to diamondoid molecules that are used as building blocks of cubic diamond crystals and nanocrystals. The hexagonal part of this molecule is included in the C12 central part of this molecule. This part can be repeated to increase the ratio of hexagonal to cubic diamond and other structures. The calculated energy gap of these molecules (called hereafter wurtzoids) shows the expected trend of gaps that are less than that of cubic diamondoid structures. The calculated binding energy per atom shows that wurtzoids are tighter structures than diamondoids. Distribution of angles and bonds manifest the main differences between hexagonal and cubic diamond-type structures. Charge transfer, infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance and ultraviolet-visible spectra are investigated to identify the main spectroscopic differences between hexagonal and cubic structures at the molecular and nanoscale. Natural bond orbital population analysis shows that the bonding of the present wurtzoids and diamondoids differs from ideal sp3 bonding. The bonding for carbon valence orbitals is in the range (2s0.982p3.213p0.02)-(2s0.942p3.313p0.02) for wurtzoid and (2s0.932p3.293p0.01)-(2s0.992p3.443p0.01) for diamantane.

  • Notable characteristics are found between diamond types and observed optical properties from the analysis of natural diamonds in market as a gem mineral. All of the diamond samples observed are classified into type Ia, which can be subdivided type IaA containing only A aggregates, type IaB containing only B aggregates, and type IaAB containing both A aggregates and B aggregates in detail. As B aggregates more relatively increase than A aggregates. It is possible to find out that an increase of N3 center, an enhancement of blue fluorescence reaction, and an intensification of irregularity in the strain pattern. Because the property change of diamond mentioned above are consistent with optical phenomenon caused by dislocation and with N3 center produced by changes of nitrogen aggregation process from A aggregate to B aggregate. There is a close relation between diamond type and optical properties.

  • The purpose of this study was to suggest the skirt grading rule for different somatotypes. For this study 9 subjects were classified three types according to the shape of front hips such as diamond, standard, heart. Skirts pattern were made by Moonwha grading method for traditional grading rule. For each somatotypes, skirt pattern were graded by new grading rule. The sensory evaluations were practiced for appearance and function. At the result, comparing between the new grading rule and traditional grading rule, new grading rule was fitter than the traditional grading rule. And diamond type was distinctively better than the other somatotype at sensory evaluation appearance. For pattern making of diamond type it had better use the new grading rule that was considered the characteristics of body shape.

  • Diamond is synthesized from the gaseous mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen by microwave PECVD. $10{\times}10mm^2$ silicon wafers are used as the substrate,and it can be raised more than $900^{\circ}C$ by microwave absorption, radiation by plasma and bombardment of ions. The changes of the morphology and the growth rates of the deposits with the experimental conditions are examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy. The d values of all the deposited films concide with those of powder diffraction data in XRD. In Raman spectra, the peak of the deposit coincides with that of the natural diamond which has a value of 1332.5 $cm^{-1}$, and the broad peak from 1360 $cm^{-1}$to 1600 $cm^{-1}$which represents the amorphous graphite was observed in the higher concentration of carbon monoxide.
