In this paper an experimental study is presented to investigate the effect of a step edge and a stationary droplet on the dynamic behavior of impacting droplet on a wall. The main parameters are the distance from the edge and the center-to-center distance between two droplets. Photographic images are presented to show coalescence dynamics, shape evolution and contact line movement. The emphasis is on presenting the spreading length of droplet for the step edge and two coalescing droplets along their original centers. It is clarified that the droplet exhibits much different dynamic behavior depending on the location of the step edge. The momentum of impacting droplet was better transferred to the stationary droplet as the center- to-center distance between two droplets was reduced, which results in more spreading of coalescing droplet.

Mothers of 113 Korean toddlers completed Toddler Behavior Assessment Questionnaire(TBAQ) and Child Rearing Practice Report(CRPR). Observations of mother-child dyads in novel situations involving unfamiliar settings and adults assessed child's behavioral inhibition. Nonsocial inhibition were measured by the amount of time each child spent in physical contact with his/her mother in free-play episodes. Adult-social inhibition was based on child's behavior when an unfamiliar adult requested that the child approach her as she presented them with toys or activities. Results showed that TBAQ Social Fearfulness was positively associated with nonsocial and adult-social inhibition. TBAQ Pleasure was correlated negatively and TBAQ Anger Proneness positively correlated with adult-social inhibition. An interaction effect showed that child's social fearfulness and mother's overprotective behaviors affected adult-social inhibition. The regression model explained 31% of the variance.

In this study, we describe the most expected behavior of cells on the modified surface and the correlation between the modified substrates and the response of cells. The physicochemical characteristics of substrates played an essential role in the adhesion and proliferation of cells. Glass and polymer substrates were modified using air plasma oxidation, and the surfaces were coated with self-assembled monolayer molecules of silanes. The PDMS substrates embedded with parallel micropatterns were used for evaluation of the effect of topologically modified substrate on cellular behaviour. BALB/3T3 fibroblast cells were cultured on different surfaces with distinct wettability and topology, and the growth rates and morphological change of cells were analyzed. Finally, we found the optimum conditions for the adhesion and proliferation of cells on the modified surface. This study will provide insight into the cell-surface interaction and contribute to tissue engineering applications.

The paper considers the dynamic behaviour of the two-layered and multi-layered plate packets under dynamic (seismic) loading. These models correspond to the base-foundation packet structures. The analysis of the various models, including the models of contact between the layers, is derived on the base of the precise solutions of elasticity theory equations. It is shown that the application of the seismoisolator or, in general, less rigid materials between the base and the foundation brings to reduction of the natural frequencies of free vibrations of the packet base-foundation, as well as to the significant reduction of the negative seismic effect on the structures.

Ni-CNT(carbon nanotubes) composite coating is often used for the surface treatment of electronic/mechanical devices to improve the properties of the exisiting Ni electroplating. For this, the dispersion of CNT particle is a critical process. In this study, ball milling and additive called sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) are employed for dispersion. Electroplated Ni-CNT films were examined by SEM-EDX, AES, microhardness tester, 4-point probe and contact angle measurement to find the optimum dispersion conditions. Ni-CNT coatings formed by ball milling for 9 hrs and with addition of SDS 12 times of CNT contents showed the highest hardness, reasonable resistivity and non-stick characteristics.

The running safety of a railway vehicle depends on the design parameters and contact condition between wheel and rail. In this study, the effect of the conicity of wheel tread is analyzed using ADAMS/RAIL software on running situation. Modal analysis shows in 0.6 Hz natural frequency of lateral mode in fully arranged the KTX cars. The excessive vibration of the tail cars occurs in the 17th car as the speed and the stiffness of the secondary suspension increases, and especially for 1/40 conicity of the GV40 wheel. Also, the analysis shows that combination of wheel profile, GV40 for power cars and XP55 for passenger cars can reduce the lateral vibration of the tail cars.

HEMA, AA, MMA, and EGDMA as crosslinking agent and AIBN as an initiator, and 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone, 2-ethylhexyl-trans-4-methoxy-cinnamate, 2-hydroxy-4-(methacryloyloxy)benzophenone as additives at 0.1-1.0% ratios were used to manufacture hydrophilic ophthalmic lenses through thermal polymerization before their physical properties were measured. The results showed that the samples containing of 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone and 2-ethylhexyl-trans-4-methoxy-cinnamate resulted in a decrease of the UV blocking performance after high-pressure sterilization whereas the sample containing 2-hydroxy-4-(methacryloyloxy)benzophenone showed no change in the UV blocking performance. It is judged that this is induced by presence or absence of an acyl functional group in benzophenone.

The arbitrarily-bended pipe is widely used in a heat exchanger system. Thus, the pipe bending process has important role in performance and productivity of heat exchanger system. The purpose of this study is to investigate the bending process for manufacturing of sound pipe. And, the spring-back effect and the variation of pipe thickness should be controlled effectively. The change of spring-back ratio and the thickness variation of pipe according to the change of bending radius, bending angle and pipe thickness are analyzed by FEM analysis. The analytic results are compared with the experimental data, accordingly the results show good agreement. The method of the analysis can be applied for manufacturing of precision bended pipe.

We have synthesized a new p-type polymer, poly(9,9'-n-dioctylfluorene-alt-phenoxazine) (PFPO), via the palladium catalyzed coupling reaction. The number average molecular weight ($M_n$) of PFPO was found to be 23,000. PFPO dissolves in common organic solvents such as chloroform and toluene. The UV-visible absorption maximum of the PFPO thin film is clearly blue-shifted with respect to that of F8T2, poly-(9,9'-n-dioctylfluorene-alt-bithiophene). The introduction of the phenoxazine moiety into the polymer system results in better field-effect transistor (FET) performance than that of F8T2. A solution processed PFPO TFT device with a top contact geometry was found to exhibit a hole mobility of $2.7{\times}10^{-4}cm^2/Vs$ and a low threshold voltage of -2 V with high on/off ratio(${\sim}10^4$).

The disinfection effect of free residual chlorine and monochloramine on biofilm communities were investigated by CLPP (community level physiology profile) using Biolog GN plates. Low concentration of disinfectant, $0.5\;mg/\iota$ free chlorine and $1.0\;mg/\iota$ monochloramine, stimulated the growth of bacteria rather than disinfection. Bacterial concentrations were decreased at more than $1.0\;mg/\iota$ of disinfectants. CLPP was different with the type and concentration of disinfectant and sampling time. Common and different carbon sources were actively used with similar bacterial concentration in free chlorine and monochloramine. This represents the differences of bacterial communities with tap water contact times and disinfectant.
