Two-dimensional turbulent wake flow past a rectangular cylinder is investigated experimentally by using the linearized constant temperature hot-wire anemometer. Some of turbulent characteristics are obtained at the range of X=6B-500B downstream from the cylinder and the Reynolds number range is 500-2800. For the statistical treatment, autocorrelation coefficient, probability density function and power spectral density function are obtained by using the signal analyzer. It is clear that coherent structure of strong periodic eddies exists to the position of 20B downstream from the cylinder, and its feature is similar to round type as nearer to the cylinder while it is stretched longitudinally along with flow direction as the distance from the cylinder is increased to downstream.

Coil specimens were prepared by continuous coating on a copper wire with flexible PAI (polyamideimide) and PAI/nanosilica (5 wt%) varnish and thermally aged at 150, 200 and $250^{\circ}C$ for 5, 10 and 15 days, respectively. AC insulation breakdown voltage was investigated under inverter surge condition at 60 Hz and 1,000 Hz and insulation breakdown voltage decreased with increasing aging temperature and aging time at each 60 and 1,000 Hz.

We investigate the flow characteristics around a series of rectangular bodies ($40^d{\times}80^w{\times}80^h$, $80^d{\times}80^w{\times}80^h$ and $160^d{\times}80^w{\times}80^h$) placed in a deep turbulent boundary layer. The study is aiming to understand the surface pressure distribution around the bodies such as the suction pressure in the leading edge, when the flow is normal, which is responsible for producing extreme suction pressures on the roof. The experiment includes wind tunnel work by using HWA (Hot-Wire anemometry) and pressure transducers. The experiments are carried out at three different Reynolds numbers, based on the velocity U at the body height h, of $2.4{\times}10^4$, $4.6{\times}10^4$ and $6.7{\times}10^4$, and large enough that the mean flow is effectively Reynolds number independent. The results include the measurements of the growth of the turbulent boundary layer in the wind tunnel and the surface pressure around the bodies.

We propose rectangular type spiral coils with folded comers for the applications to low frequency guided wave magnetostrictive transducers and describe a method for making the proposed coils from insulated electrical wire such as enameled copper wire. Expressions for the electrical properties of the coils are also presented and compared with experimental measurements. An overlapped-2-channel folded-comer spiral-coil array is fabricated and applied to a magnetostrictive strip transducer generating and detecting fundamental torsional mode guided waves. From the results we conclude that the design and fabrication method make it possible to use the magnetostrictive transducers optimized for various guided wave applications and also will greatly help engineers gain easy access to the optimized transducers.

This paper reports the characteristics of the three dimensional turbulent flow in the rectangular-sectioned 180 degree bends by Hot-wire anemometer. Grande and Kool proposed a cooling law for the measurements of the flow through the narrow passage. The authors noticed that the calibration coefficients of original method are not constant and fairly sensitive to the flow approaching angle. Measured voltages are converted to three velocity and six Reynolds stress components using the modified method in which the coefficients are treated as a function of approaching angle.

Measurement of the absolute displacement of the moving machinery components in three-dimensions (3D) is of critical functional importance. This paper describes the system that measures motion associated with six degrees-of-freedom in 3D. Wire-sensors are used to estimate the positions of an object in a 3D Cartesian coordinate system, based on the values of their initial position and the measured values. For inducing the transfer function, which represents the motion of an object, the number of the minimum measurement points is determined. Also, the experimental measuring device is configured to visualize the behavior of a rectangular object in real-time. The software for measuring the six types of motions is directly programmed using a commercial software.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of Al and Ti on microstructure of Fe-Cr-Al alloy systems for applying electrical resistance wires of electrical furnace. From the preliminary study, the amount of recovered addition elements increased in the case of both vacuum and Ar-atmosphere melting than that in the case of air-atmosphere melting. Also, optimum Cr content for good performance at high temperature was approximately 24wt% from the observation of microstucture. The precipitates of Fe-Cr, Al-Cr and Al phases were observed, adding Al and Ti. Especially, Sharp rectangular shapes of precipitates were observed with increasing amount of Ti.

Locally available Stainless Steel Wire Mesh (SSWM) bonded on a concrete surface with an epoxy resin is explored as an alternative method for the torsional strengthening of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beam in the present study. An experiment is conducted to understand the behavior of RC beams strengthened with a different configuration of SSWM wrapping subjected to pure torsion. The experimental investigation comprises of testing fourteen RC beams with cross section of $150mm{\times}150mm$ and length 1300 mm. The beams are reinforced with 4-10 mm diameter longitudinal bars and 2 leg-8 mm diameter stirrups at 150 mm c/c. Two beams without SSWM strengthening are used as control specimens and twelve beams are externally strengthened by six different SSWM wrapping configurations. The torsional moment and twist at first crack and at an ultimate stage as well as torque-twist behavior of SSWM strengthened specimens are compared with control specimens. Also the failure modes of the beams are observed. The rectangular beams strengthened with corner and diagonal strip wrapping configuration exhibited better enhancement in torsional capacity compared to other wrapping configurations. The numerical simulation of SSWM strengthened RC beam under pure torsion is carried out using finite element based software ABAQUS. Results of nonlinear finite element analysis are found in good agreement with experimental results.

Hot-wire measurements are reported on the developing turbulent flows subject to plane rate of strain in a rotating $90^{\circ}$ dog bend. The cross-section of the bend varies from $100mm{\times}50mm$ rectangular shape at the bend inlet gradually to the $50mm{\times}100mm$ shape at the bend outlet with remaining a constant area. Data signals from the rotating test section are transmitted through a slip ring to the personal computer which is located at the outside of the rotating disc. 3-dimensional velocity and 6 Reynolds stress components were calculated from the equations which correlate the fluctuating and mean voltage values measured with rotating a slant type hot-wire into 6 orientations. The effects of Coriolis and centrifugal forces on the mean motions and turbulence structures are investigated with respect to rotational speed.

Endovaginal and endorectal receiver only surface coils were designed for MR imaging (MRI) and $^1H$ MR spectroscopy (MRS) for the uterine cervix and the prostate. The shape of endovaginal coil wire was rectangular with round corner. Size of the coil wire was empirically determined for 7cm and 4cm along the long and short axis, respectively. The coil wire loop was supported by acryl handle and bent about $150^{\circ}$ at one side of the loop considering the average angle of the cervix to the vagina. We called this as a "spoon-type endovaginal coil". The wire of the endorectal coil was made of the flexible materials so that the wire loop became long elliptic shape by pushing the acryl handle into the plastic tube for the comfort of patients when the coil was inserted into the cervix. Then, the shape was maintained to be circle by popping out handle. Conventional spin echo (SE) and fast spin echo (FSE) sequences were used as 71 and 72 weighted imaging sequences, respectively. Matrix size was 128~$256{\times}256$. FOVs for surface coil and body coil were 14cm and 24cm, respectively. 3D volume localized in vivo $^1H$ MR spectroscopy of the human cervix and prostate was performed using PRESS or STEAM localization method with the following parameters . TR=3 sec, TE=135 msec for PRESS or 30 msec for STEAM, NEX=2, NS=48, Sl=2048, and SW=2500 Hz. Using home-built endovaginal and endorectal coils, excellent T1- and T2-images were obtained to visualize early cervical and prostate tumors. 3D volume localized in vivo IH MRS was useful to differentiate the cancerous tissue from the normal tissue.
