Multipopulation Genetic Algorithm(MPGA) is the modified form of Genetic Algorithm(GA), which was devised for covering for overing the defect of general GA. The core of MPGA is said to be the migration method. The fitness-based migration method and the random migration method are currently used. The random migration method is more general than the other because it keeps the diversity of the population. In this paper, a new migration method is suggested. This method has a merit that it can improve the speed of conergence, compared to the general migration method. This method is compared with the general migration method.

Application of gas assisted injection molding has been expanded during last two decades because of many advantages such as design flexibility, dimensional stability, reduction of machine tonnages, and so on. However, the surface defects including hesitation mark and gloss difference are observed for thick parts. Difficulties in lay-out of the gas channel and processing condition are another disadvantages. Liquid gas assisted injection molding(LGAIM), in which a liquid with a boiling point lower than the temperature of the polymer melt is injected into the melt stream, and travels with the melt into the mold where it vaporizes and pushes the melt downstream and against the cavity walls to create hollow channels within the part, is a good alternative of the conventional gas assisted injection molding especially in manufacturing simple and very thick parts. Though this is a new frontier of the innovation in the injection molding industry, there is no guideline for the design and processing conditions. In this paper, theoretical analysis has been made to describe the hollow formation dynamics in LGAIM. This model provides an insight into LGAIM process: explains why LGAIM has advantages over conventional gas assisted injection molding, and gives a guideline for the design and processing conditions.

The wire rope of container crane is a important component to container transfer system and is used in a myriad of various applications such as elevator, mine hoist, construction machinery, and so on. If it happen wire rope failures in operating, it may lead to the safety accident and economic loss, which is productivity decline, competitive decline of container terminal, etc. To solve this problem, we developed the active and portable wire rope fault detecting system. The developed system consists of three parts that are the fault detecting, signal processing, and remote monitoring part. All detected signal has external noise or disturbance according to circumstances. Therefore we applied to discrete wavelet transform to extract a signal from noisy data that was used filter. As experimental result, we can reduce the expense for container terminal because of extension of exchange period of wire rope for container crane and this system is possible to apply in several fields to use wire rope.

Measurement of noise is not only to know the information of acoustic pressure but to assess human response to noise. To find human response to transportation noise through the laboratory study we have to measure and reproduce noise. The method of noise reproduction is largely divided into monaural and binaural techniques. But human fundamentally hears sound through both ears, referred as binaural hearing. Binaural signal is different from monaural signal because it includes more information of physical phenomena like acoustical reflection, diffraction and refraction. Especially head and pinna play an important role in perceiving change of signal origin. So, the amplitude of binaural signal is higher than that of monaural signal and spectrum of both signals is discriminated. Most of assessment and regulation of transportation noise are, however, based on monaural measurement techniques. The quantitative difference between monaural and binaural measurement is investigated in this study. Comparison on several transportation noisesshows defect of information in monaural measurements.

In case of dome-typed gymnastics training floor, since its form takes shape of the focus of sound, in the occasion when the finishing-material was used with the sandwich panel that prominent in reflexibility, and because the reverberation of sound in indoor is too loud, a smooth practice and teaching is very difficult. As this indoor gymnastics training floor, standing at its character, is required simultaneously the idea communication between the player and the coach, and the acoustic capability regarding to the clearness of music, besides the sport activity, the method to minimize the acoustic defect should be urgently contrived from the stages of design and beginning of construction. On this viewpoint, after investigation on the confidence of the surveyed value and the estimated value using acoustic simulation, and use of the changed finish-material, this thesis intends to design the dome-typed gymnastics training floor that secured the optimized acoustic condition. It is also considered that such result of the study could be utilized as the useful data that enables to improve the retrenchment effect of the construction cost as well as the acoustic performance, by means of the prediction control on the acoustic problem from the stage of design, for the occasion when the similar indoor sport gymnasium is planning to build for the near future.

This paper presents a wear analysis procedure for calculating the wear of journal bearings during the start-up and coast-down cycles of a motoring stripped-down single cylinder engine operating with a tilted shaft. In order to decide whether the lubrication state of a journal bearing is in the mixed-elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication regime, we utilize lift-off speed and MOFT (most oil film thickness) under mixed-elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication regime at the corresponding aligned shaft. We formulate an equation for the modified film thickness in a misaligned journal bearing considering the additional wear volume described in Part I of this study. For this, we use the calculation results of the degree of misalignment and tilting angle obtained after finding the eccentricities of the two bearings supporting the crankshaft of a single cylinder engine. In this Part II, we calculate the wear of journal bearings using the fractional film defect coefficient, the asperity load sharing factor, and the modified specific wear rate for the application of mixed-elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication regime. We show that the accumulated wear volume after turning the ignition switch on and off once, increases to ${\sigma}=39{\mu}m$ and then decreases from ${\sigma}=39{\mu}m$ with increasing in surface roughness.

The structure of the scale formed on the surface of Fe - Cr - X alloys exposed to 1143K high sulfidation($Ps_2$ = 1.11$\times$$10^-7$ atm, $Po_2$ = 3.11$\times$$10^-20$ atm) or sulfidation/oxidation(($Ps_2$= 1.06$\times$$10^-7$ atm, ($Po_2$ = 3.11$\times$$10^-18$ atm) environment has been observed and analysed using XRD, SEM/EDS. To investigate the possibility of protective film formed on the surface of the alloys, Aluminium, Nickel were selected as alloying elements. Thermodynamic phase stability diagram was used to predict the reaction path of scale formed on Fe - Cr - X alloys. Parabolic rate constant($K_p$) value with 6wt% Al in Fe - 25Cr alloy decreased significantly compared with the Fe - 25Cr alloy without 6wt% Al. Since thin layer of defect free sulfide film, (Al, Cr)Sx, was formed at the alloy/scale interface. Fe - rich sulfide scale at outer layer and Cr - rich sulfide scale containing porosity at inner layer of Fe - 25Cr alloy have been observed. The reaction path for these scales could be predicted by the thermodynamic stability diagram.
