As a basic study for the removal of oxygen in solid Nd metal by metal Ca vapour, by using the thermodynamic data such as ${\Delta}G-T$ diagrams and Nd-O and Nd-Ca equilibrium diagrams, the amount of residual oxygen in solid Nd metal formed based on deoxidation reaction by Ca vapour, instead of by direct contact of solid Nd metal and Ca solution, was determined. Deoxidation experiments were carried out for solid Nd metal in a temperature range of $890{\sim}970^{\circ}C$ for 1h to 4h and content of addition Ca of 0.6~1.8 g (5~15 wt% of solid Nd metal). As a result, it was found that as deoxidation temperature increased, dissolved oxygen decreased. Especially, it was observed that a small amount of Nd-Ca alloy liquid was formed on the surface of the solid Nd metal sample deoxidized at $970^{\circ}C$ for approximately 1 hour. Also, it was found that if the content of addition Ca was 1.8 g (15 wt% of solid Nd metal) the amount of produced Nd-Ca alloy increased slightly. However, for the Nd sample with which the deoxidation reaction was performed at $930^{\circ}C$ for 4h with content of addition of Ca of 1.5 g (13 wt% of Nd metal), the residual oxygen was found to decreased to 12.00 ppm.

In the present work, the impact loads and their effects on the surface damage under the simultaneous cavitation bubble and solid particle collapses in the sea water have been quantitatively investigated for the austenitic 304 stainless steel by using a vibratory cavitation test device. To do this, angular $SiO_2$ solid particles with an average size of $150{\mu}m$ were dispersed into the test liquid, and the measured impact amplitudes were converted into the impact loads by a steel ball drop test. The maximum impact load was determined to be 28.2 N in the absence of solid particles, but increased to 33.7 N in the presence of solid particles. In addition, the critical impact loads, $L_{crit}$, required to generate pits with sizes greater than $3{\mu}m$ were measured to be 19.6 N and 16.6 N, respectively, for the cavitation bubble collapse and solid particle collapse. As a result of the cavitation erosion test, the incubation time and erosion rate were 1.2 times lower and 1.5 times higher, respectively, by a solid particle collapse compared to those only by the cavitation bubble collapse, indicating a drastic decrease in a resistance to cavitation erosion by the solid particle collapse.

In order to generate the input data for rapid prototyping, a new approach which is based on the implicit surface interpolation method is presented. In the method a surface is reconstructed by creating smooth implicit surface from unorganized cloud of points through which the surface should pass. In the method an implicit surface is defined by the adaptive local shape functions including quadratic polynomial function, cubic polynomial function and RBF(Radial Basis Function). By the reconstruction of a surface, various types of error in raw STL file including degenerated triangles, undesirable holes with complex shapes and overlaps between triangles can be eliminated automatically. In order to get the slicing data for rapid prototyping an efficient intersection algorithm between implicit surface and plane is developed. For the direct usage for rapid prototyping, a robust transformation algorithm for the generation of complete STL data of solid type is also suggested.

For products of various shapes, compound surfaces are used. Blending surfaces are essential to the products of the compound surfaces. In this paper a method of making shape of blending surface flexible with parameter control is discussed. The parameter has quantitative control of shape of the blend. The blending surface is applied to NURBS and simple primitives in solid model. Intersection curves of surfaces is used to provide the blend with generality. Rail curve are found with the intersection curves. The blend is generated by rail curves and parameter control. Also, In strict constraint condition, blending surface with flexible shapes is discussed, keeping ;${GC}^1$ and ;${GC}^2$ continuity between free-formed surfaces and solids. Joining blending ,bridge blending and blending surface at corner are generated.

Water molecules on a Ru(0001) surface are anomalously acidic compared to bulk water. The observation was made by conducting reactive ion scattering, reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed desorption measurements for the adsorption of ammonia onto a water layer formed on Ru(0001). The study shows that the water molecules in the first intact $H_2O$ bilayer spontaneously release a proton to NH3 adsorbates to produce $NH_4{^+}$. However, such proton transfer does not occur for $H_2O$, OH, and H in a mixed adsorption layer or for $H_2O$ in a thick ice film surface.

The performance of an immuno-analytical system can be assessed in terms of its analytical sensitivity, i.e., the detection limit of an analyte, which is determined by the amount of analyte molecules bound to the capture antibody that has been immobilized onto a solid surface. To increase the number of the binding complexes, we have investigated a site-directed immobilization of an antibody that has the ability to resolve a current problem associated with a random arrangement of the insolubilized immunoglobulin. The binding molecules were chemically reduced to produce thiol groups that were limited at the hinge region, and then, the reduced products were coupled to biotin. This biotinylated antibody was bound to a streptavidin-coated surface via the streptavidin-biotin reaction. This method can control the orientation of the antibody molecules present on a solid surface and also can significantly reduce the possibility of steric hindrance in the antigen-antibody reactions. In a two-site immunoassay, the introduction of the site-directly immobilized antibody as the capture enhanced the sensitivity of analyte detection approximately 10 times compared to that of the antibody randomly coupled to biotin. Such a novel approach would offer a protocol of antibody immobilization in order for the possibility of constructing a high performance immunochip.

As well as arising the concern about pesticides known as a Carcinogenic or endocrine disorder substrates, magnitude was increased of reducing pesticides in soil or water. In this work, removals of residual pesticides on surface of solid phase were attempted by the photooxidation process with hydrogen peroxide. The optimum conditions for the removals of benomyl (carbamatic pesticide) chlorothalonil (Organochoric pesticide) were 350nm UV wavelegth and 20% (v/v) hydrogen peroxide solution as oxidant. Removals are negligible when UV radiation or the supply of hydrogen peroxide are solely applied on the target compoounds. Removal rates of the pesticides are accelerated by UV radiation with hydrogen addition. After 20 min of the treatment, about $2{\mu}g/cm^2$ of benomyl and $1,88{\mu}g/cm^2$ of chlorothalonil were disappeared on the surface of the solid phase.

The surface of a sapphire substrate used for hetero-epitaxy was chemically polished in a mixture of $H_3PO_4\;and\;H_2SO_4$ solution. The extent of etching for various crystal orientations was found to be dependent on the etching time at $315{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ and at the composition of $H_2SO_4 : H_3PO_4$=3 : 1. In addition, the etching rates of the substrates were investigated in the mixture of $H_2SO_4 : H_3PO_4$=3 : 1 by volume and in the temperature range of 280~320$^{\circ}C$. From the plot of log R against 1/T, the activation penergy ($(E_a)$) was found to be in the order of $({\bar1}012) > (10{\bar1}0) > (11{\bar2}0) > (0001)$ plane. After removing the surface layers of the sapphire with (0001), $({\bar1}012),\;(10{\bar1}0)\;and\;(11{\bar2}0)$ plane by a thickness of 64.6, 46.5, 16.2 and 5.1 ${\mu}m$, respectively, the morphology of the resulting surface was observed by SEM.

Lithium dihydrogen phosphate ($LiH_2PO_4$) powder was purchased from Aldrich Chemical Co. From the scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation, these polycrystals have dimensions in the range of $25-250{\mu}m$. The electrical conductivity was measured at a measuring frequency of 1 kHz on heating polycrystalline lithium dihydrogen phosphate ($LiH_2PO_4$) from room temperature to 493 K. Two anomalies appeared at 451 K ($T_{p1}$) and 469 K ($T_{p2}$). The electrical conductivity reached the magnitude of the superprotonic phases: $3{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}^{-1}cm^{-1}$ at 451 K ($T_{p1}$) and $1.2{\times}10{\Omega}^{-1}cm^{-1}$ at 469 K ($T_{p2}$). It is uncertain whether the superprotonic phase transformations are due to polymorphic transitions in the bulk, surface transitions, or chemical reactions (thermal decomposition) at the surface. Considering several previous thermal studies (differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry), our experimental results seem to be related to the last case: chemical reactions (thermal decomposition) at the surface with the progressive solid-state polymerization.
