In this paper, firstly we have derived and presented the specific heat jump as a function of the critical temperature. Secondly, we have analyzed the sign and magnitude of the derived specific heat jump and predicted the expected experimental results. And lastly, we have compared the expected experimental results with the real experimental results. Theoretically derived specific heat jump is considerably compatible with the specific heat jump up and down phenomena of the $YNi_2B_2C$ crystal. Especially, the remarkable theoretical prediction-hat the specific heat would jump down during the normal state-to-superconducting state transition at extremely low temperatures-have been confirmed by the experimental results.

In the present work, numerical simulations were conducted on the scaled model of the BWB type UCAV in the subsonic region using ANSYS FLUENT V15. The prediction method was validated through comparison with experimental results and the effect of the twisted wing was investigated. To consider the transitional flow phenomenon, ${\gamma}$ transition model based on SST model was adopted. The coefficients of lift, drag and pitching moment were compared with experimental results and the pressure distribution and streamlines were investigated. The twisted wing decreases the lift force but increases lift-to-drag ratio through delay of stall and leading edge vortex's movement to the front, also the non-linearity of the pitching moment is decreased.

Steady flow simulations through a high pressure turbine guide vanes were carried out. The main objective of the present work is to study the performance of turbulence models on the steady flow prediction from aerodynamic and aerothermal points of view. Three turbulence models were compared, namely SST, k-${\omega}$ and ${\omega}$-Reynolds stress models. The laminar results were also compared. The comparison was done with emphasis on the isentropic Mach number and heat transfer coefficient along the blade, and total pressure loss in the wake region. The calculated isentropic Mach number showed reasonable agreement with experimental data along the blade surface for all three turbulent models. For the total pressure loss in the wake region, ${\omega}$-Reynolds stress model showed the best agreement with the experimental data. However, unless using an appropriate transition model, the heat transfer coefficients of all three turbulent models showed poor agreement with experimental data.

Bartter syndrome (BS) is an inherited renal tubular disorder characterized by low or normal blood pressure, hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, and hyperreninemic hyperaldosteronism. Type III BS is caused by loss-of-function mutations in CLCNKB encoding basolateral ClC-Kb. The clinical phenotype of patients with CLCNKB mutations has been known to be highly variable, and cases that are difficult to categorize as type III BS or other hereditary tubulopathies, such as Gitelman syndrome, have been rarely reported. We report a case of a 10-year-old Korean boy with atypical clinical findings caused by a novel CLCNKB mutation. The boy showed intermittent muscle cramps with laboratory findings of hypokalemia, severe hypomagnesemia, and nephrocalcinosis. These findings were not fully compatible with those observed in cases of BS or Gitelman syndrome. The CLCNKB mutation analysis revealed a heterozygous c.139G>A transition in exon 13 [p.Gly(GGG)465Glu(GAG)]. This change is not a known mutation; however, the clinical findings and in silico prediction results indicated that it is the underlying cause of his presentation.

As Dr. Ogawa visited to Korea for joint research on Tricholoma matsutake, authors travelled 15 main producing districts of Tricholoma matsutake and had field survey on sample areas in these districts from September 23 to October 3 1981. The object of this investigation were to understand the actual conditions of pine forest and growing Tricholoma matsutake in Korea so as to find out relevant treatment of pine forest where the Tricholoma matsutake were growing. As a results, present environmental conditions such as weather, topography, soils, pine forest, vegetations, pine mushrooms(Tricholoma matsutake), other fungi and the relationship between Tricholoma matsutake and the diseases of pine forest were investigated. Model figures of topography and forest type on surveyed area have been drawn up. Some countermeasures to improve pine forest conditions in the aspect of producing Tricholoma matsutake were suggested through the prediction on the transition of pine forest.

Experimental and numerical studies on the unsteady wake field behind a square cylinder near a wall were conducted to find out how the vortex shedding mechanism is correlated with gap flow. The computations were performed by solving unsteady 2-D Incompressible Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations with a newly developed ${\epsilon}-SST$ turbulence model for more accurate prediction of large separated flows. Through spectral analysis and the smoke wire flow visualization, it was discovered that velocity profiles in a gap region have strong influences on the formation of vortex shedding behind a square cylinder near a wall. From these results, Strouhal number distributions could be found, where the transition region of the Strouhal number was at $G/D=0.5{\sim}0.7$ above the critical gap height. The primary and minor shedding frequencies measured in this region were affected by the interaction between the upper and the lower separated shear layer, and minor shedding frequency was due to the separation bubble on the wall. It was also observed that the position (y/G) and the magnitude of maximum average velocity $(u/u_{\infty})$ in the gap region affect the regular vortex shedding as the gap height increases.

The major objective of this study is to proposal of measuring method and design for the testing curved railway in which the tilting train runs. In order to the speed-up of conventional lines that have many curve lines, there needs a improvement construction of substructure such as the straight or double track work and so on. But in this case, it needs to have a plenty of the cost and the period. Therefore, the tilting train which provides the high-speed service effectively in curve tracks was developed. Besides, the efficiency prediction and the linear synthesis of the existing conventional line for a tiling train service were examined on the preceding studies. So, in this paper we propose the measuring plan and the design of the improvement sections in the testing curved track which was decided as a results of material analysis and field research concerning the extension possibility of transition curves and the bearing of track due to the new developed train traveling. And we look forward to playing a decisive role as reference data on the improvement construction project for the commercial service of the tilting train.

Kinetic studies on solvolytic reactions of 1-and 2-naphthalene sulfonyl chlorides in ethanol-water mixtures have been carried out by means of conductometry at several temperatures. The rate constant for 2-naphthyl compound was larger than that for 1-naphthyl compound. This was contrary to the prediction of MO theory and could be rationalized as due to the peri-hydrogen effect in the transition state for 1-naphthyl compound. Based on m values of Winstein plots and n values of Kivinen pacolots it was concluded that the solvolytic displacement of the two naphthalene sulfonyl chlorides in ethanol-water mixtures proceed via $S_N2$ process.

Nonstationary features existing in tropical storms have been frequently captured in recent field measurements, and the applicability of the stationary theory to the analysis of wind characteristics needs to be discussed. In this study, a tropical storm called Nakri measured at Taizhou Bridge site based on structural health monitoring (SHM) system in 2014 is analyzed to give a comparison of the stationary and nonstationary characteristics. The stationarity of the wind records in the view of mean and variance is first evaluated with the run test method. Then the wind data are respectively analyzed with the traditional stationary model and the wavelet-based nonstationary model. The obtained wind characteristics such as the mean wind velocity, turbulence intensity, turbulence integral scale and power spectral density (PSD) are compared accordingly. Also, the stationary and nonstationary PSDs are fitted to present the turbulence energy distribution in frequency domain, among which a modulating function is included in the nonstationary PSD to revise the non-monotonicity. The modulated nonstationary PSD can be utilized to unconditionally simulate the turbulence presented by the nonstationary wind model. The results of this study recommend a transition from stationarity to nonstationarity in the analysis of wind characteristics, and further in the accurate prediction of wind-induced vibrations for engineering structures.

Accurate predictions of heat transfer coefficient of vertical laminar film-boiling are very important in many engineering applications. There are many predictions, however they are not exact as yet, since they have used the assumption of constant thermodynamic properties in the analysis. In this paper, heat transfer of vertical film boiling was analysized by Runnge Kutta method using veriable thermodynamic properties. 1/4 interval method was exployed for the prediction of unknown wall boundary condition. Numerical computations were performed with varying the wall temperature and the free stream velocity of liquid. Results show that assumption of constant thermodynamic properties induced considerable error in predicting the heat transfer coefficient, friction factor, film thickness, and critical length for transition to turbulent flow. Comparision of the predicted heat transfer coefficient of present analysis with that from Bromley's correlation shows that the use of general latent heat in Bromely equation instead of modified latent heat is more desireable since it makes the coefficient of Bromley equation into constant.
