Purpose: To study the concentration distribution and diffusion depth in tinted lenses using the law of diffusion. Methods: The measured values taken from experiments were fitted with the theoretical fitting curve induced on the basis of Fick's second law of diffusion. Results: The fitting curves were in very good agreement with the measured values. As the results, we found the quantitative relationship between mass of dye solution diffused into the tinted lens per unit area and dyeing time, and evaluated concentration distribution of dye in tinted lens, diffusion depth, etc. Conclusions: The dyeing mechanism of tinted lenses can be well described by diffusion theory.

Recently, one of the hydrogen production methods has attracted using dense metallic membrane. It has high hydrogen permeation and selectivity which hardly could adopt industrial product because of high cost, hydrogen embrittlment and thermal stability. Meanwhile, vanadium has high hydrogen solubility and it use to instead of Pd-Ag amorphous membrane. Aluminum carried out blocking hydrogen diffusion on grain boundary therefore protecting hydrogen embrittlement. Most of dense metallic membrane is solution diffusion mechanism. The solution diffusion mechanism was very similar hydrogen storing steps such as steps of metal hydride. Thus, V-Al composites were fabricated to use hydrogen induced mechanical alloying. The fabricated V-Al composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS and simultaneous TG/DSC analyses. The hydrogenation behaviors were evaluated using a Sievert's type automatic PCT apparatus. The hydrogenation behaviors of V-Al composites was evaluated too low hydrogen stored capacity and fast hydrogenation kinetics. In PCI results, V-Al composites had low hydrogen solubility, in spite of that, hydrogen kinetics was calculated very fast and hydrogen absorption/desorption contents were same capacity.

Objectives The aim of this study is to explore the mechanism of action and target diseases of Sasang constitutional prescriptions using a multiscale interactome approach. Methods The compound and target information of Sasang constitutional prescriptions were retrieved from various databases such as the TM-MC, STITCH, and TTD. Key targets for Sasang constitutional prescriptions were identified by selecting the top 100 targets based on the number of simple paths within the constructed network. Diffusion profiles for Sasang constitutional prescriptions and diseases were calculated based on a biased random walk algorithm. Potential diseases and key mechanisms of Sasang constitutional prescriptions were identified by analyzing diffusion profiles. Results We identified 144 Sasang constitutional prescriptions and their targets, finding 80 herbs with effective biological targets. A cluster analysis based on selecting up to 100 key targets for each prescription revealed a more cohesive grouping of prescriptions according to Sasang constitution. We then predicted potential diseases for 62 Sasang constitutional prescriptions using diffusion profiles calculated on a multiscale interactome. Finally, our analysis of diffusion profiles revealed key targets and biological functions of prescriptions in obesity and diabetes. Conclusions This study demonstrates the effectiveness of a multiscale interactome approach in elucidating the complex mechanisms and potential therapeutic applications of prescriptions in Sasang constitutional medicine.

The Corrosion behavior of the matrix of the $\rho$-alumina bonded alumina vibrated castable was, on the basis of Jabsen's theory, elucidated by use of the Kingery's reaction mechanism. Corrosion of the matrix during induction period was controlled by the molecular diffusion. The temperature dependence of activation process is well established by the Arrhenius plots. The difference of Ca concentration between slag and interface is 23.2%, which causes a driving force of the materials transfer. The extent of the corrosion of the matrix is more deeper than that of the sintered mullite, but the corrosion mechanism can be well employed as the reaction mechanism proposed by the Kingery. The life time of the castable may be well estimated by the corrosion mechanism of Kingery.

In this study, the amorphous foil filler, thickness of 20 - $20~30\mu\textrm{m}$ was made to develop Cu-7.5wt%Mn-7.5wt%Si insert alloy(melting point temperature : solidus line 1003K, liquidus line 1070K). Liquid phase diffusion bonding of 304 stainless steels (STS304), is carried out successfully by using developed Cu-7.5Mn-7.5Si insert alloy. Bonding conditions are taken from bonding pressure of 5MPa, bonding temperatures from 1073K to 1423K varied within 50K and brazing holding times of 0, 30, 60 and 240 minutes. As the results, the tensile strength in the liquid phase diffusion bonding is a little bit lower than that in the solid phase diffusion bonding. The authors find out that the liquid phase diffusion bonding needs lower bonding pressure than the others. Therefore, the liquid phase diffusion bonding had an excellent brazability in which the bonding process showed the typical mechanism of diffusion bonding. In corresponding, the new developed insert alloy of low melting pointed Cu-7.5Mn-7.5Si makes possible brazing between the STS304.

Reportedly, the use of mineral admixtures make concrete more durable and tighten against water. But, it is needed to study more about the relationship between the admixtures and the chloride ion diffusion. When concrete is mixed with fly-ash, pozzolanic reaction occur to time. So we should consider the factors that can evaluate inner structure of concrete in order to evaluate the chloride diffusion of the concrete more accurately. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the correlation between chloride ion diffusion and physical properties such as compressive strength, void ratio, air permeability of the concrete, and tried to use them as fundamental data for analyzing chloride ion diffusion mechanism of the concrete mixed with fly-ash.

In this study, a hydraulic model test, to which Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system applied, was used to determine the hydrodynamic characteristics of the advection-diffusion of saltwater according to bottom conditions (impermeable/permeability, diameter, and inclination) and the difference of the initial salt. Considering quantitative and qualitative results from the experiment, the characteristics of the density current were discussed. As an experimental result, the advection-diffusion mechanism of salinity was examined by the shape of saltwater wedge and the flow structure of density currents with various bottom conditions. The vertical salt concentration obtained from the experiment was used as quantitative data to calculate the diffusion coefficient that was used in the numerical model of the advection-diffusion of saltwater.

A diffusion process is often the main mechanism of soil gas/vapor movement in the vadose zone. The diffusion coefficients in the porous soil media are different from those in the free air phase by the reduction of available area for diffusion, tortuous diffusion path and variable cross section area along the diffusion path. To take account those effects of the diffusion process in the porous media, usually the terms of effective diffusion coefficient and tortuosity are have been used. However, as there are many differents definitions for the tortuosity, when the term of tortuosity is used, it is necessary to examine it throughly. Moreover, there are many different equations for the effective diffusion coefficient according to the investigators and the differences in the values of effective diffusion coefficients between the equations are not insignificant, the selection of the equation should be done with caution. In this paper, the different definitions of effective diffusion coefficient are examined and discussed. As well as definitions, the lots of availabe models for the diffusion coefficient in terms of porosities are compared. Also, the constrictiviy which explains the effect of cross sectional area change over the diffusion path was discussed.

Wireless sensor networks consist of small battery powered devices with limited energy resources. Once deployed, the small sensor nodes are usually inaccessible to the user, and thus replacement of the energy source is not feasible. Hence, energy efficiency is a key design issue that needs to be enhanced in order to improve the life span of the network. Directed Diffusion is a well known routing protocol. In this paper we adopt the clustering mechanism to improve the efficiency of Directed Diffusion. We introduce C-Directed Diffusion which make clusters, select the CH(Cluster Head) and CHs do the same process as in Directed Diffusion. C-Directed Diffusion is pretty simple and show better performance than Directed Diffusion.
