We studied visual clarity according to the difference of color temperature and color rendering by using black and white printed paper and four sheets of colored paper under different kinds of lamps and same kind lamps. The results show visual clarity is proportioned to average color rendering index approximately except incandescent lamps and to color temperature under incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, high pressure sodium lamps, metal halide lamps and electrode less discharge lamps.

In this work, a simple and low cost sensor technique is proposed to test oil color in real time using in-line sensor. It is presented to use a ratio of intensity in red wavelength range to intensities of green and blue wavelength ranges (defined as a 'chromatic ratio') in order to estimate the oil color change. The proposed sensor technique is realized by irradiating a white LED as light source and a RGB color sensor as photoreceiver, and the chromatic ratio of various types of used oils are measured. The results show that chromatic ratio generally reflects chemical deterioration of oil, including oil oxidation and thermal degradation. It is concluded that the proposed sensor could be used for an effective oil monitoring technology.

This paper proposes a novel beehive-shaped reflector for application to light-emitting diode (LED) transceivers for illumination and bi-directional visible light communication (VLC). By using a diffuse propagation model extended to line-of-sight and direct signals, the distribution of illuminance and the path loss of the transceiver are investigated to evaluate the performance of the beehive-shaped reflector. To verify bi-directional communication, a VLC-based image capture system, comprising a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor and video processor unit, is demonstrated. Real-time images captured by the CMOS camera are successfully transmitted to the monitoring system via a free-space channel at a rate of 115.2 kbps.

A relatively new non-traditional finishing process called Abrasive Flow Machining(AFM) is being used to deburr, polish and radius workpiece or produce compressive residual stresses by flowing an abrasive-laden viscoelastic compound across the surface to be machined. This paper presents the effects of AFM on surfaces of tool steel produced by EDM and W-EDM. Using AFM, white layer produced by EDM is erased almost equally and the amount of metal removal is significantly affected the initally machined surface condition of workpiece. The dimension of workiece is enlarged and its surface roughness is improved as AFM time is increased. The optimal AFM time can be established from the experimental results. It is considered that the grinding method lide AFM is useful to grind complex or slim geometry of workpiece even. Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) was used to study the surface characteristics of the workpiece before and after AFM.

The colored films formed on 304 stainless steel plates by immersion treatment and electrochemical one in a solution containing sulphuric acids and chromic acids were studied by SEM, AES, and spectrophotometer. The thicknesses of the films by 20 minutes treatment were about 200 nm and it became thinner as the treatment times were increased. The surface texture showed a tortuous network of interlinking pathways. The color of the 304 steel surface changed from metallic white to gray, black, red, yellow-green, and green-blue, gradually, by the treatment time was increased. The reflectivity measured by UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer was reduced from max. 38% of basis metal to min. 3.5% of colored surface.

The solid solutions of ${\alpha}-Si_3N_4$, i.e. ${\alpha}$-sialons, are represented by a general formula of $M_x(Si,Al)_{12}(O,N)_{16}$, in which metal ions (M) dissolve into interstitial sites to stabilize the structure. Processing methods for the fabrication of ${\alpha}/{\beta}$-sialon composites, ${\alpha}-sialon/{\beta}Si_3N_4$ composites, refractory or tough ${\alpha}$-sialon ceramics have been developed to tailor the mechanical properties. Translucent and photoluminescent properties have been investigated recently. A number of applications of ${\alpha}$-sialon ceramics as engineering and optical ceramics are also presented.

GaN deposition equipment and processes for the fabrication of white LEDs (Light Emitting Diode) using MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) were numerically modeled to analyze the effects of a reactive gas introduction strategy. The source gases, TMGa and $NH_3$, were injected from a shower head at the top of the chamber; the carrier gases, $H_2$ or $N_2$, were introduced using two types of injection structures: vertical and horizontal. Wafers sat on the holder at a radial distance between 100 mm and 150 mm. The non-uniformity of the deposition rates for vertical and horizontal injection were 4.3% and 3.1%, respectively. In the case of using $H_2$ as a carrier gas instead of $N_2$, the uniform deposition zone was increased by 20%.

Phosphating treatments have been performed to improve paint adhesion and corrosion resistance of zinc and zinc alloy coated steels for a long time. In this work, the effects of the addition of chelate compound were studied to improve the stability of surface conditioning solution and properties of zinc phosphate films. The coalescence of colloidal Ti-compound and extraneous charged particles (alkaliearth metal cation such as $Mg^{2+}$ , $Ca^{2+}$ ) were suppressed by using a surface conditioning solution with chelate compound. Therefore, after surface conditioning solution containing chelate compound was left standing for one week at room temperature, the formation of a white sediment was decreased comparing to surface conditioning solution without chelate compound. The crystal size of phosphate film was fine and the whiteness value of phosphated zinc coated steel sheets was also high without the decrease of corrosion resistance and anti-patina. It was very effective to use chelate compound improving the stability of surface conditioning solution.

The main reason for the heat induced accidents occurring at the after stern tube journal bearing is the excessive local pressure caused by the deflection of the propulsion shaft due to the propeller loads. It is expected that the contact area could beenlarged and the local pressure reduced accordingly by using a lining material having alow Young's modulus instead of the existing white metal. The purpose of this work is to investigate the characteristics of the pressure distribution and determine the allowable pressure value in the case where bearing products made of materials having a low Young's modulus are used. In this study, the propeller loads, heat effect, and hull deflection are considered in the evaluation of the local pressure of the ship propulsion shaft. Also, the Hertzian contact condition was applied. From the analysis results in the case where a lining material with a low Young's modulus was used, it was found that a robust design could be achieved and the local pressure could be reduced effectively independent of the load conditions. It will be possible to producenew products made of materials having a low Young's modulus if the manufacturer confirms the performance specifications drawn by this study.

If the lost energy produced by a propeller can be partially recovered, the propulsive efficiency can be increased, and the fuel consumption reduced. The devices installed for this purpose are called Energy Saving Devices, of which the Contra-Rotating Propeller system is one of the most effective devices. The first problem to be solved to install the Contra-Rotating Propeller system on a large ship is that the mean pressure generated in the journal bearing needs to meet the design criteria of the classifications. In Korea, however, the practical use is being delayed because it cannot overcome this step. The next step is to lower local pressure to increase the reliability. In this study, to solve the mean pressure problem as the first step of practical use, a product carrier with a short stern shape was selected to reduce the weight of the shafting system, and a suitable shafting-system design plan was proposed. Shaft analysis confirmed that the mean pressure of 0.8 MPa (8 bar), which is a design criterion of the classifications for a journal bearing lining material (white metal), was satisfied. In addition, the necessity of reducing the local pressure was also confirmed.
