Ambient air aged anodically etched porous silicon (PS) and spark-processed silicon (sp-Si) show interesting similarities and dissimilarities in some of their luminescence-related properties. Among these similarties are: (1) the photoluminescence (PL) peak maximum in the blue/violet (410 nm);(2) the blue/violet PL peak positions are essentially unchanged with temperature ; (3) PL decay times in the nanosecond region which are independent of the detection wavelength, which is much faster in decay times compared to that of observed decay time in $SiO_2$.Among the dissimilarities are: (1) the PL intensity of blue/violet luminescence, namely, the PL intensity of sp-Si is at least 2 orders of magnitude larger than that of an ambient air aged PS; (2) the blue/violet PL intensity of sp-Si is more stable than that of ambient air aged PS under UV illuminations; (3) FTIR spectra of sp-Si favor those modes, which involve silicon -oxygen bonds in $SiO_2$ stoichiometry, whereas ambient air aged PS can be considered as a nonstoichiometric oxide judging from the observed vibrational spectra.

This paper deals with the development of a realistic shape optimization of damaged columns that are subjected to conservative and non-conservative forces, using the Genetic Algorithm (GA). The analysis is based on the design of the most optimized shape of the column under the constraint of constant weight, considering the Static, Vibrational, and Flutter characteristics. Under the action of conservative and non-conservative longitudinal forces, an elastic column loses its stability. A numerical analysis based on FEM has been performed on a uniform damaged column, to compute the fundamental buckling load, vibration frequency, and flutter load, under various end restraints. An optimization search based on the Genetic Algorithm is then executed, to find the optimal shape design of the column. The optimized column references the one having the highest buckling load, highest vibration frequency, and highest flutter load, among all the possible shapes of the column, for a given volume. A comparison is then made between the values obtained for the optimized damaged column, and those obtained for the optimized undamaged column. The comparison reveals that the incorporation of damage in the column alters its optimal shape to only a certain extent. Also, the critical load and frequency values for the optimized damaged column are comparatively low, compared with those obtained for the optimized undamaged column. However, these results hold true only for moderate-intensity damage cases. For high intensity damage, the optimal shape may not remain the same, and may vary, according to the severity of damage.

The structural intensities have been applied to understand a source point and the path of vibrational energy flows in interested structures by many researchers. In this paper, a feasibility study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of a damaged beam with a inflicted open crack using the structural intensities. The damaged beam was taken as a continuous system with equivalent bending stiffness and the flexural vibrations were only considered in numerical simulation and experiments. A four(4)-transducer array was used to measure the flexural vibrations of the beam and the structural intensities were estimated by means of cross spectral density method. As a result, the magnitude changes of the structural intensities could be observed in the vicinity of the damage location and a damage index was newly proposed to identify the damage zone. It has been confirmed that the measurement of the structural intensities was simple and effective method to find out the damage zone.

We studied the electrical characteristics of low-k SiOCH interlayer dielectric(ILD) films fabricated by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). BTMSM precursor was evaporated and introduced with the flow rates from 16 sccm to 25 sccm by 1 sccm step with the constant flow rate of 60 sccm $O_2$ in process chamber. The vibrational groups of SiOCH thin films were analyzed by FT!IR absorption lines, and the dielectric constant of the low-k SiOCH thin films were obtained by measuring C-V characteristic curves. The heat treatment on SiOCH thin films reduced the FTIR absorption intensity of the Si-O-$CH_3$ bonding group and Si-$CH_3$ bonding group but increased the intensity of Si-O-Si(C) bonding group. The SiOCH ILD films could have low dielectric constant $k\;{\simeq}\;2$ and also be reduced further by decreasing the $CH_3$ group density and increasing Si-O-Si(C) group density through annealing process.

Nearly simultaneous observations for $^{28}SiO$ v=0, 1, 2, J =3-2 transitions in 39 late-type stars have been carried out in February 1995 and 1996 with the 14 m radio telescope at Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory (TRAO). Observations for $^{28}SiO$ v=0, 1, 2, J=2-1 lines in the same objects have been also carried out in March 1995 and March-April 1996. The detection rate of $^{28}SiO$ v=l, J=3-2 line for the $^{28}SiO$ v=l, J=2-1 sources was $59\%$. Seventeen new detections in the $^{28}SiO$ v=l, J=3-2 transition and 4 new detections in the $^{28}SiO$ v=2, J=3-2 transition have been reported including the intensity ratios within the vibrational ladders and rotational states.

In this paper, the power flow analysis(PFA) method was developed to predict the vibrational responses of coupled co-planar orthotropic plates in frequencies ranging from medium to high. To cover the power transmission and reflection at the joint of the orthotropic plates, the wave transmission approach is applied with the assumption that all the incident waves are normal to the joint. Through numerical analyses, the power flow energy density and intensity fields of coupled co-planar orthotropic plates were compared with those of classical modal solutions by changing the frequency and internal loss factor, and they show good agreement in terms of the global decay and the attenuation patterns of the energy density.

In this paper the vibrational behavior of a multi-packet blade system having a cracked blade is investigated. Each blade is assumed as a slender cantilever beam. The coupling stiffness effect that originates from either disc flexibility or shroud is considered in the modeling. Hybrid deformation variables are employed to derive the equations of motion. The flexibility due to crack, which is assumed to be open during the vibration, is calculated basing on a fracture mechanics theory. In the paper, the results of the change in modal parameters due to crack appearance are presented. The influence of the crack parameters, especially of the changing location of the crack is examined.

The photoluminescence of calixarene crystals has been studied as functions of temperature, time, and concentration. The vibronic bands shift to longer wavelength and become significantly sharper as temperature decreases. The experimental results r eveal that the structural transformation occur during the annealing process. Time-resolved spectra of calixarene at 12 K are monitored. Spectral features, which demonstrate characteristic of energy transfer processes, are not observed. The depopulation of excited state density is mainly controlled by unimolecular decay process dominating other decay processes. The lifetime was found to be 2.6 $\pm$ 0.1 ns. For the case of calixarene mixed with naphthalene, the fluorescence spectrum shows that the band centered at 340 nm lies 2840 $cm^{-1}$ below the relatively broad 310 nm band found for calixarene crystals. The spectra also exhibit that the emission intensity increases with increasing calixarene concentration. The results are evident that the calixarene emission is quenched by the naphthalene. Phosphorescence of calixarene mixed with naphthalene crystals is observed to determine whether the emission is due to naphthalene. The phosphorescence peaks were compared with the ground-state vibrational frequencies of naphthalene and found to be in good agreement. The results indicate that inter-molecular energy transfer occurs between calixarene and naphthalene.

A new type of cascade sandwiched piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer is presented and studied. The cascade transducer is composed of two traditional longitudinally sandwiched piezoelectric transducers, which are connected together in series mechanically and in parallel electrically. Based on the analytical method, the electromechanical equivalent circuit of the cascade transducer is derived and the resonance/anti-resonance frequency equations are obtained. The impedance characteristics and the vibrational modes of the transducer are analyzed. By means of numerical method, the dependency of the resonance/anti-resonance frequency and the effective electromechanical coupling coefficient on the geometrical dimensions of the cascade transducer are studied and some interesting conclusions are obtained. Two prototypes of the cascade transducers are designed and made; the resonance/anti-resonance frequency is measured. It is shown that the analytical resonance/anti-resonance frequencies are in good agreement with the experimental results. It is expected that this kind of cascade transducer can be used in large power and high intensity ultrasonic applications, such as ultrasonic liquid processing, ultrasonic metal machining and ultrasonic welding and soldering.
