The effects of the stress ratio and the fiber orientation(0.deg./90.deg. and .+-.45.deg.) to the load direction on the fracture behavior of the glass/epoxy plain woven composites were studied. The tests were carried out using compact tension specimens under both static and fatigue loading. The values of $k_{a}$ obtained from the energy release rate are independent of notch depth(a/w=0.2~0.6) for the 0.deg./90.deg. specimens, but decreases with an increase in a/w for the .+-.45.deg. specimens. And $k_{q}$ has higher values than $k_{ASTM}$ has been evaluated by the ASTM E399 test procedure. It is shown in the relation between fatigue crack growth rate da/dN and stress intensity factor range .DELTA.K using modified shape correction factor that da/dN decreases with a decrease in stress ratio and is lower for .+-..deg. specimens than for 0.deg./90.deg. These phenomena can be explained by the crack deflection to the load direction.n.n.

We found that polyimide surfaces bombarded by a low energy argon ion beam align liquid crystals. The pretilt angle of the liquid crystals is controlled by ion beam parameters, such as the energy of the incident ions, the angle of incidence, exposure time and current density. The alignment direction of liquid crystal on substrates corresponded to ion beam direction. By argon ion beam the pretilt angle of the liquid crystals was controlled between $0.5^{\circ}$ and $4^{\circ}$for SE-3140 under the proper conditons. By the atomic force microscope (AFM), polyimide surfaces before and after bombarded by ion beam are compared.

During the fermentative production of 1,3-propanediol under high substrate concentrations, accumulation of intracellular 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde will cause premature cessation of cell growth and glycerol consumption. Discovery of oxidoreductases that can convert 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde to 1,3-propanediol using NADPH as cofactor could serve as a solution to this problem. In this paper, the yqhD gene from Klebsiella pneumoniae DSM2026, which was found encoding an aldehyde reductase (KpAR), was cloned and characterized. KpAR showed broad substrate specificity under physiological direction, whereas no catalytic activity was detected in the oxidation direction, and both NADPH and NADH can be utilized as cofactors. The cofactor binding mechanism was then investigated employing homology modeling and molecular dynamics simulations. Hydrogen-bond analysis showed that the hydrogen-bond interactions between KpAR and NADPH are much stronger than that for NADH. Free-energy decomposition dedicated that residues Gly37 to Val41 contribute most to the cofactor preference through polar interactions. In conclusion, this work provides a novel aldehyde reductase that has potential applications in the development of novel genetically engineered strains in the 1,3-propanediol industry, and gives a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in cofactor binding.

This paper presents turbulent characteristics of an impinging F-O-O-F type injector in which fuel ad oxidizer impinge on each other to atomize under the different momentum ratio. Water was used as an inert simulant liquid instead of fuel and oxidizer. The droplet size and velocity in the impinging spray flow field were measured using a PDPA. The gradient of the spray half-width(b$_2$) along the long-axis direction declined throughout the entire spray flow field with increasing the momentum ratio from 1.19 to 6.48. However, the gradient of the half-width(b$_1$) along the short-axis direction decreased with increasing the momentum ratio. The turbulence intensity and turbulent kinetic energy were converged into the center of the center of the initial region with increasing the momentum ratio. As the momentum ratio increased from MR=1.19 to MR=6.48, the turbulent shear stress decreased. The results of this study can be used for the design of an impinging type injector for liquid rackets.

A novel method for evaluating the anisotropy of the deterministic features in a stochastic 2D data is introduced. The ability of the wavelet transform for the identification of the abrupt discontinuities could be used to characterize the boundary of the deterministic area in a 2D stochastic data, such as flocs in paper structure. The one-dimensional wavelet transform with a small-scale range in MD and CD could quantify the amount of the edge in both directions, depending on the intensity of each floc. The flocs that are aligned in the MD direction result in a higher value of local wavelet energy in the CD direction. Therefore, the ratio of the total wavelet energy in CD and MD directions can be used as a new anisotropy index. This index is a measure of the floc-orientation and can provide an excellent tool to obtain the orientation distribution and the major oriented angle of flocs. Various simulated images and real stochastic data such as local gloss variation of printed image and formation image, have been tested and the results show this analysis method is very reliable to measure the anisotropy of the deterministic features.

According to revolutionary developments in automobile technologies, eco-friendly advanced vehicles (hybrid vehicle, hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle, electric vehicle, etc.) are rapidly increasing. The electromagnetic compatibility is getting more important for development of a vehicle because those advanced vehicles are driven by electric energy and equipped with more electric systems. In general, electromagnetic compatibility tests consist of an electromagnetic interference(EMI) test and an electromagnetic susceptibility(EMS) test. EMI test of the electric vehicles are needed not only in driving mode but also in charging mode because they must be recharged by much electric energy for driving. Depending on vehicle manufacturers, the charging device type and the location of charging device inlet in electric vehicles are various. In this paper, in order to investigate EMI of electric vehicles in charging mode in consideration of the direction of measuring antenna and the location of charging device inlet, a series of electromagnetic emission tests are conducted using three electric vehicles (neighborhood electric vehicle, electric vehicle and electric vehicle-bus). The test results show that electromagnetic emission measurements in charging mode are dependent on the direction of measuring antenna and the location of charging device inlet.

High-cycle fatigue characteristics of quasi-isotropic carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) laminates [-45/0/45/90]s up to $10^8$ cycles were investigated. To assess the fatigue behavior in the high-cycle region, fatigue tests were conducted at a frequency of 100 Hz, since it is difficult to investigate the fatigue characteristics in high-cycle at 5 Hz. Then, the damage behavior of the specimen was observed with a microscope, soft X-ray photography and a 3D ultrasonic inspection system. In this study, to evaluate quantitative characteristics of both transverse crack propagation and delamination growth in the high-cycle region, the energy release rate associated with damage growth in the width direction was calculated. Transverse crack propagation and delamination growth in the width direction were evaluated based on a modified Paris law approach. The results revealed that transverse crack propagation delayed under the test conditions of less than ${\sigma}_{max}/{\sigma}_b$ = 0.3 of the applied stress level.

A Q-switched diode-pumped neodymium-doped yttrium vanadate (YVO₄, λ =1064nm) laser was used for the direct patterning of indium tin oxide (ITO) films on glass substrate. During the laser direct patterning, the laser beam was incident on the two different directions of glass substrate and the laser ablated patterns were compared and analyzed. At a low scanning speed of laser beam, the larger laser etched lines were obtained by laser beam incident in reverse side of glass substrate. On the contrary, at a higher scanning speed, the larger etched pattern sizes were found in case of the beam incidence from front side of glass substrate. Furthermore, it was impossible to find no ablated patterns in some laser beam conditions for the laser beam from reverse side at a much higher scanning speed and repetition rate of laser beam. The laser beam is expected to be transferred and scattered through the glass substrate and the laser beam energy is thought to be also dispersed and much more influenced by the overlapping of each laser beam spot.

The undoped-InSe and Sn-doped InSe single crystals were grown by vertical Bridgman method and their properties were invesigated. The orientations and the crystallinites of these crystals were identified by X-ray diffraction(XRD), double crystal rocking curve(DCRC) and etch-pit density(EPD) measurements. From the Raman spectrum at room temperature, TO, LO modes and together with their overtones and combinations were observed. Optical properties were inves ated by PL at 12K and direct band gap of these crystals obtained from optical absorption spectrum. Compared with undo&-InSe, electrical properties of Sn-doped InSe were increased and the electrical conductivity type were n-type. But electrical properties along growth direction of crystals and radial direction of wafer showed nearly uniform distribution. The Zn diffusion mechanism in InSe could be explained by interstitial-substitutional and vacancy complex models and the activation energy of 1.15-3.01eV were needed for diffusion.fusion.

In this study, we analyzed the relationship between four elements: long-wave radiation, the direction of the building, BVR (Building View Ratio), and cloud amount. We examined how long-wave radiations surrounding a building influences the perception of heat in the summer. The results are as follows. (1) Long-wave radiation and BVR are highly correlated regardless of geographical direction. (2) Especially, during dawn in a clear day, areas with high BVR observed high levels of long-wave radiation. (3) This correlation suggests that higher BVR in urban areas will result in a greater number of tropical nights.
