The present study investigates the convective heat/mass transfer characteristics and pressure drop inside the rib-roughened cooling passage of gas turbine blades. The internal cooling passage is simulated using a square duct with h- and V-shaped rectangular ribs which have a 60。attack angle. A naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to determine the detailed local heat/mass transfer coefficients using the heat and mass transfer analogy. The ribs disturb the main flow resulting in the recirculation and secondary flows near the ribbed wail. The secondary flow patterns and the local heat transfer in the duct are changed significantly according to the rib orientation. A square duct with ∧ - and V-shaped ribs have two pairs of secondary flow due to the rib arrangement. Therefore, the average heat/mass transfer coefficients and pressure drop of ∧ - and V-shaped ribs are higher than those of the continuous ribs with 90$^{\circ}$ and 60$^{\circ}$attack angles. The ∧-shaped ribs have higher heat/mass transfer coefficients than the V-shaped ribs, and the uniformity of heat/mass transfer coefficient are increased with the discrete ribs due to the flow leakage and acceleration near the surface.

This study addresses the contamination sensitivity test of a typical fuel pump for an automotive vehicle. The objective of the study is to find the contamination sensitivity coefficient of a fuel pump on specific contaminant particle sizes so that an optimal fuel filter could be selected. To achieve the objective, the degradation of discharge flow rate of the fuel pump is measured under the experiments of various contaminants size ranges of ISO test dust up to $80\;{\mu}m$. The fundamental theory of contamination sensitivity is introduced and the contamination sensitivity coefficients are estimated using the experimental data. Maximum contamination sensitivity coefficient of $5\chi\;10^{-6}\;L/min{\cdot}Ea$ is found in the contaminant size range of $40\;{\mu}m\~50\;{\mu}m$. The magnified picture of the surface of vane disc reveals that the abrasive wear is the principal cause of discharge flow rate degradation. Hence, this study reveals that a high efficiency filter for contaminant particles especially in the size range of $30\;{\mu}m\~70\;{\mu}m$ especially should be used to maintain the service life of the fuel filter.

A Bi$_4$Ti$_3$O$_{12}$ (BIT) thin film is prepared by sol-gel method using acetate precursors and evaluated whether it could be applied to NVFRAM. The drying and the annealing temperature are 40$0^{\circ}C$ and $650^{\circ}C$, respectively and they are determined from the DT-TG analysis. The BIT thin film deposited on Pt/Ta/SiO$_2$/Si substrate shows orthorhombic perovskite phase. The grain size and the surface roughness are about 100 nm and 70.2$\AA$, respectively. The dielectric constant and the loss tangent at 10 KHz are 176 and 0.038, respectively, and the leakage current density at 100㎸/cm is 4.71$mutextrm{A}$/$\textrm{cm}^2$. In the results of hysteresis loops measured at $\pm$250㎸/cm, the remanent polarization (Pr) and the coercive field (Ec) are 5.92$mutextrm{A}$/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 86.3㎸/cm, respectively. After applying 10$^{9}$ square pulses of $\pm$5V, the remanent polarization of the BIT thin film decreases as much as about 33% from 5.92 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of initial state to 3.95 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

This paper is focused on the fabrication of reliable novel antifuse, which could operate at low voltage along with the improvement in OFF and ON-state properties. The fabricated antifuse consists of Al/BaTi$_{2}$O$_{3}$/SiO$_{2}$/TiW-silicide structure. Through the systematic analyses for bottom metal and the intermetallic insulator, material and electri cproperties were investiaged. TiW-silicide as the bottom electrode had smooth surface with average roughness of 11.angs. at 10X10.mu.m$^{2}$ and was bing kept as-deposited SiO$_{2}$ film stable. Amorphous BaTi$_{2}$O$_{3}$ film as the another insulator was chosen because of its low breakdown strength (2.5MV/cm). breakdown voltage of antifuse is remarkably reduced by using BaTi$_{2}$O$_{3}$ film, and leakage current of that maintained low level due to the SiO$_{2}$ film. Low ON-resistance (46.ohm./.mu.m$^{2}$) and low programming voltage(9.1V) can be obtained in theses antifuses with 220.angs. double insulator layer and 19.6X10$^{-6}$ cm$^{2}$ area, while keeping sufficient OFF-state reliability (less than 1nA).

Synthetic and biosynthetic vascular grafts of small diameter have long been considered to be prone to thrombosis, ultimately leading to the complete graft occlusion. Endothelial cell seeding onto synthetic blood-contacting surfaces has been suggested to be an ideal means to solve this problem. This study described a culture method of bovine endothelial cells and evaluated blood-compatibility and seeding efficiency of cultured endothelial cells. Bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells were harvested enzymatically and grown to confluence on polystyrene culture flask surfaces using established techniques. The identification of endothelial cells was made through the demonstration of expression of factor VIII R:Ag by immunofluorescent technique. To quantitate the effect of improvement in blood-compatibility of viable endothelial cells, endothelial monolayers were exposed to blood containing $\^$111/In-oxine labeled platelets. Viable endothelial monolayers retained less labeled platelets than control surfaces. The Indium-labeled endothelial cells were seeded onto three different blood-contacting surfaces of Dacron vascular graft immobilized in specially equipped wells and incubated for specific time intervals (t=15, 30, 60, 120 minutes). Longer incubation times showed improved cell adherence in collagen-coated and fibrin-coated Dacron vascular graft groups. However in untreated Dacron grafts, no direct relationship was observed between incubation time and endothelial cell seeding efficiency. This may be due to leakage of endothelial cells through porosity of Dacron grafts in this in-vitro experimental condition.

$(Ba_{1-x}Sr_xTiO_3$ (BST) thin films have been grown on Pt-coated MgO by metal -organic chemical vapor deposition. X-ray diffraction results showed that BST films were grown on a Pt/MgO substrate with (100) preferred orientation perpendicular to the surface. The lineawr relationship of P-E curve obtained form hysteresis loop measurement indicated that the BST films had a Curie transitions below room temperature . Films deposited at $900^{\circ}C$ exhibited a smooth and dense microstructure, a dielectric constant of 202, and a dissipation facotr of 0.02 at 100kHz. The leakage current density of the BST films is about $2\times10^{-10} \;A/\textrm{cm}^2$$ at an applied electric field of 0.2 MV/cm. The electrical behavior on the current-voltage characteristics is well explained by the bulk-limited Pool-Frenkel emission.

Increase of surface area and decrease of band gap in $TiO_2$ semiconductors are significant to improve the efficiency of water splitting by photoelectrolysis. In this study $TiO_2$ nanotube arrays with ~7 um length and ~100 nm diameter were fabricated by an anodizing technique of titanium foils using DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide)-based electrolytes. Then to control the band gap of the $TiO_2$ arrays, they were annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ for up to 180 min in $NH_3$ gas ambient. The samples annealed in $NH_3$ gas for 30 min and 60 min showed superior photo-conversion efficiency for water splitting under white and visible light. A $TiO_2$ nanotube annealed in $NH_3$ gas ambient for a period longer than 120 min showed 1 order higher leakage current. It is believed that the decrease of band gap and increase of conductivity in $TiO_2$ nanotube arrays due to $NH_3$ gas treatments result in the superior water-splitting performance.

The massive structures are not free to move with vibration, differential settlement, thermal stresses because, construction and expansion joint, crack etc., can be large enough to cause leakage as deformation of waterproofing. It has been depended on the test method of tensile/tear strength which is waterproofing performance as behavior of concrete structure crack. However, not to practically confirm the creep applied to concrete surface, even waterproofing membrane have more performance than definite strength and elasticity. Therefore, in this study will focus on the test method to consider a resistance performance about loose adhesion and deformation of waterproofing and behavior of concrete structure as construction/expansion joint, crack. Performance test method on the influence as behavior of concrete structure crack is to choose waterproofing materials and construction method which possible to confront with behavior of 50mm crack in the atmosphere and low temperature. Examine the deformation of waterproofing membrane and loose adhesion which can occur to structure in general job site, suggest standard testing method to analyze correlation waterproofing membrane and structure with 5-types of materials used in this study, such as Adhesion membrane and sheet complex, sheet and urethane complex, self-adhesive sheet, spray poly-urea, spray membrane of rubberized Asphalt.

$(Pb_{0.72}La_{0.28})Ti_{0.93}O_3(PLT(28))$ thin films were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition. PLT films deposited on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ at $600^{\circ}C$ had a preferred orientation in (111) plane and at $550^{\circ}C$ had a (100) preferred orientation. We found that (111) preferred oriented films had well grown normal to substrate surface. This PLT(28) thin films of $1{\mu}m$ thickness had dielectric properties of ${\varepsilon}_r$=1300, dielectric $loss{\fallingdotseq}0.03 $. and had charge storage density of 10 [${\mu}C/cm^2$] and leakage current density of less than $10^{-6}[A/cm^2]$ at 100[kV/cm]. These results indicated that the PLT(28) thin films fabricated by pulsed laser deposition are suitable for DRAM capacitor application.

A three-dimensional computation was conducted to understand effects of the low Reynolds number on the performance in a low-speed axial compressor at the design condition. The low Reynolds number can originates from the change of the air density became it decreases along the altitude in the troposphere. The performance of the axial compressor such as the static pressure rise wag diminished by the separation on the suction surface and the boundary layer on the hub, which were caused by the low Reynolds number. The total pressure loss at the low Reynolds number was found to be greater than that at the reference Reynolds number at the region from the hub to 90% span. Total pressure loss was scrutinized through three major loss categories in a subsonic axial compressor such as profile loss, tip leakage loss and endwall loss using Denton's loss model, and effects of the low Reynolds number on the performance were analyzed in detail.
