This paper presents the mathematical model for rolling behaviors of a small regular polygonal part on an inclined plane. Throughout the numerical analysis performed with the simulation program which has been experimentally validated, it is shown that the number of edges of the rolling polygonal part can be a measure for the energy dissipation rather than the coefficient of friction. The appropriate slope angle has been found to be around 20 degree for roughness-separation as well as shape-separation of polygonal parts which have small number of edges. In additions, the vibratory motion applied to the inclined plane is able to cause mixed parts to be separated more effectively according to the shape or the roughness. Finally, a couple of parts separation methods based on the analysis results are presented, and are validated through the numerical simulation.

A simple kinematically admissible velocity field is proposed to determine the final-stage extrusion load and the average extruded length in the square-die forward extrusion of regular polygonal-shaped bars from circular billets. From the proposed velocity field, the upper-bound extrusion load and the average extruded length are determined by minimizing the total power consumption with respect to four parameters. Experiments have been carried out with hard solder billets at room temperature. The theoretical predictions of the extrusion load are in good agreements with the experimental results and there is generally reason able agreement in average extruded length between theory and experiment.

We report a numerical analysis of the light-extraction efficiency (LEE) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on patterned sapphire substrates (PSSs). We considered various n-sided, regular convex pyramids, where n is an integer and $n{\geq}3$. We then considered four cross sections: extruded, subtracted, truncated-extruded, and truncated-subtracted. Ray-tracing simulations were carried out with these polygonal pyramid patterns, and the dimensions of the patterns were systematically varied. Optimized pattern shapes were determined for large LEE. An extruded circular pyramid with a slant angle of $45^{\circ}$ was found to be the optimal patterned shape.

In this study, white spots appearing in carapace of imported white leg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei were observed by macroscopic and microscopic examination. White spots due to white spot disease showed two types, white spots with a regular circular shape ranging from 0.4 mm to 1.7 mm and white spots with an irregular shape ranging from 0.05 mm to 2 mm. White spots due to other causes showed four types that appeared as crystalized materials in range of 100 ㎛ around the tegumental gland, as polygonal inorganic deposits ranging from 58 ㎛ to 188 ㎛, as Linear inorganic deposits ranging from 0.8 mm to 9 mm, as brownish spots ranging from 0.1 mm to 0.4 mm, and brownish spots containing melanin ranging from 0.1 mm to 2 mm. As a result, white spots occurred in imported white leg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei were divide two type, due to white spot disease or other causes, for quarantine works.
