This study investigated the physicochemical characteristics of black garlic (BG) after different thermal processing steps. Compared with fresh garlic (FG), the moisture content and pH in BG decreased significantly, while the ash content and browning intensity increased during thermal processing. The total mineral and the free sugar contents were significantly higher than that of the BG2 and BG4 samples, respectively. The free sugar content increased by 16-fold in the BG cloves compared with that of FG, while the amino acid content increased during the first stage of thermal processing, and subsequently decreased. The thiosulfinate content in all samples decreased to during thermal processing. The pyruvic acid content initially increased and then decreased during thermal processing. These results contribute to our understanding of the role of thermal processing in the quality formation of BG.

Flame-sprayed Ni-based coatings are investigated in order to improve the thermal fatigue properties of gray cast iron in the presence of water spraying. The results of thermal cycling tests from room temperature to $1100^{\circ}C$ indicate that thermal fatigue endurance is increased in the order of Ni-20%Cr, NiCr-6%Al, and Ni-5%Al. The thermal fatigue failure is caused by the formation of iron oxides between the coating and the substrate and then the thermal fatigue cracks have propagated either along the brittle iron oxide layer resulting in the spatting of the coatings in case of Ni-5%Al and NiCr-6%Al coatings or to the substrate resulting in the whole specimen fracture in case of Ni-20%Cr coating. It seems that the most governing factor for thermal fatigue resistance is the thermal expansion coefficient difference between the coating and the substrate. Microstructural variations before and after the tests are also discussed.

This paper describes an effective method for forming silicon oxide on silica-on-silicon platforms, which results in excellent characteristics for hybrid integration. Among the many processes involved in fabricating silica-on-silicon platforms with planar lightwave circuits (PLCs), the process for forming silicon oxide on an etched silicon substrate is very important for obtaining transparent silica film because it determines the compatibility at the interface between the silicon and the silica film. To investigate the effects of the formation process of the silicon oxide on the characteristics of the silica PLC platform, we compared two silicon oxide formation processes: thermal oxidation and plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). Thermal oxidation in fabricating silica platforms generates defects and a cristobalite crystal phase, which results in deterioration of the optical waveguide characteristics. On the other hand, a silica platform with the silicon oxide layer deposited by PECVD has a transparent planar optical waveguide because the crystal growth of the silica has been suppressed. We confirm that the PECVD method is an effective process for silicon oxide formation for a silica platform with excellent characteristics.

This study investigates the nonpremixed $H_2/CO$-air turbulent flames numerically. The turbulent combustion process is represented by a reaction progress variable model coupled with the presumed joint probability function. In the present study, the turbulent combustion model is applied to analyze the nonadiabatic flames by introducing additional variable in the transport equation of enthalpy and the radiative heat loss is calculated using a local, geometry independent model. Calculations are compared with experimental data in terms of temperature, and mass fraction of major species, radical, and NO. Numerical results indicate that the lower and higher fuel-jet velocity flames have the distinctly different flame structures and NO formation characteristics in the proximity of the outer core vortex zone. The present model correctly predicts the essential features of flame structure and the characteristics of NO formation in the bluff-body stabilized flames. The effects of nonequilibrium chemistry and radiative heat loss on the thermal NO formation are discussed in detail.

The combustion process within a porous inert medium (PIM) burner is numerical studied. A detailed chemical reaction scheme including thermal and prompt NO$_{x}$ reactions is used to predict the formation and destruction of pollutants such as NO$_{x}$ and CO. The reaction paths for NO$_{x}$ formation are divided to quantify the amount of NO$_{x}$ formed through thermal NO$_{x}$ reaction or through prompt NO$_{x}$ reaction. Emission index is calculated to compare the actual mass of NO$_{x}$ or CO produced through the combustion of unit mass of fuel. It is found NO formation in PIM burner is confined in flame zone and formation is suppressed due to heat loss at down-stream of the flame. Higher production of NO through prompt NO reaction path is observed due to the higher concentration of fuel derivative species and its higher diffusion at flame front. For all equivalence ratios, CO emission within PIM burner is lower than that from the one-dimensional freely-propagating flame. PIM burner flame has better NO$_{x}$ emission index from .psi. = 0.75 to .psi. = 1.1. to .psi. = 1.1.

To improve mechanical strength of bioglass, it is considered to use the glass as a coating material to alumina, but the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between two materials is too high to make a good coating. The aim of the present study, therefore, is to find out proper glass composition matching its thermal expansion coefficient to that of alumina without losing biocompatibility. In the present work, various glasses were prepared by substituting B2O3 and CaO for Na2O in the glass system of 55.1%SiO2-2.6%P2O5-20.1%Na2O-13.3%CaO-8.9%CaF2 (in mole%), and the thermal expansion property and reaction property in tris-buffer solution for the resulting glasses were measured. The thermal expansion coefficient of the glass was decreased with the substitution of B2O3 for Na2O, and it became close to that of alumina in the glass in which 8 mole% of CaO was substituted for Na2O. Hydroxyapatite formation was enhanced and silica rich layer thickness was decreased with B2O3 substitution for Na2O. CaO substitution for Na2O didn't deteriorated the hydroxyapatite development.

Both photoluminescence and thermal characteristics for $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{+2},\;Dy^{+3}$ phosphors synthesized with various aluminum compounds (${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$, ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, amorphous-$Al_2O_3$ and $Al(OH)_3)$ were investigated in this study. The formation temperature of the host $SrAl_2O_4$ crystal is changed by these various aluminum compounds, as a result of the different thermal decomposition temperature of $SrCO_3$ phase. Among these compounds, the amorphous-$Al_2O_3$ phase shows the lowest formation temperature of the host $SrAl_2O_4$ crystal. The PL emission and excitation spectra of $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{+2},\;Dy^{+3}$ phosphor are not affected by these aluminum compounds. After the removal of the Xenon lamp excitation (360 nm), however, the excellent longphosphorescent property of the phosphor is obtained by the amorphous-$Al_2O_3$ phase, although the decay time for all phosphors decrease exponentially.

The theoretical optimum quaternary composition for improving the thermal stability of Al-Ti alloy was recently proposed. On the basis of the suggestion, quaternary Al-Ti-V-Zr alloy powders corresponding to the optimum compositions, one of which belongs to the region of the smallest lattice misfit between the matrix and the precipitates and the other belongs to the region of the smallest rate constant of coarsening, were prepared by mechanical alloying and the powders were vacuum-hot-pressed at $430^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 800 MPa. The thermal stability of the specimens was evaluated by hardness testing after isothermal aging up to 400 hrs at various temperatures. The decrease of hardness of Al-Ti-V-Zr alloys was smaller than that of Al-Ti alloys. It was considered to be due to the formation of $Al_3Zr$ type and$Al_3Ti$ type quaternary precipitates having smaller lattice misfit than $Al_3Ti$ and the increase of volume fraction of All0v during the isothermal aging. The quaternary Al-Ti-V-Zr alloys corresponding to the smallest lattice misfit showed the most improved thermal stablilty and it was mainly considered to be due to the formation of All0v.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of specific hydration reaction on the stiffening process of cement paste. The cement compositions are manipulated to cause specific hydration reactions (secondary gypsum and syngenite formation) responsible for false set, and the relationship between specific hydration reactions and the flow and stiffening behavior of cement paste were investigated using modified ASTM C 403 penetration resistance measurement and oscillatory shear rheology. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) was used for the phase identification associated with premature stiffening of cement paste. Differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used for verification of syngenite formation. From the results, both secondary gypsum and syngenite formation caused faster stiffening and set. The amount of syngenite produced during 1 hour hydration was approximately 1 % of total mass of the cement paste, but cement paste with syngenite formation showed significantly accelerated stiffening behavior compared to normal cement paste.
