We study Interpreted Systems, ATL, and ATEL to capture the notion of time, knowledge, and strategy which are important in the analysis of multi-agent systems and propose strategic constraints based on subgame perfect Nash equilibrium of game theory as one of the solutions for the issues of ATEL which an agent can access the current state of the whole system when making up his strategy even when he should be uncertain about the state, and no explicit representation of actions in ATEL models makes some natural situations harder to model. Also, we present strategic constraints-based Interpreted Systems for model checking of multi-agent systems.

In this study, we compared with results simulated by EOS(Equation of State) using Peng-Robinson model and GERG-2004 model for estimating vapor pressure, latent heat of vaporation, liquid density, and binary isotherm vapor-liquid equilibrium on pure components composing natural gases. We obtained the simulated results that while EOS using GERG-2004 model is more accurate than EOS using Peng-Robinson model for estimating liquid density, but rather it is less accurate for estimating binary isotherm vapor-liquid equilibrium. On the other hand, the use of Costald model in EOS using Peng-Robinson model for increasing more accuracy to calculate liquid density is almost same as EOS using GERG-2004 model within the error of 1 % compared with experimental data. Also, we confirmed that on the estimation of binary isotherm vapor-liquid equilibrium, EOS using GERG-2004 model is more accurate than EOS using Peng-Robinson model, but they are almost same.

This study examines the potential restoration of abandoned channels of the Mangyeong River in South Korea. To analyze the morphological changes and equilibrium conditions, a flow duration analysis was performed to obtain the discharge of 255 m3/s with a recurrence interval of 1.5 year. It is a gravel-bed stream with a median bed diameter of 36 mm. The reach-averaged results using HEC-RAS showed that the top width is 244 m, the mean flow depth is 1.11 m, the width/depth ratio is very high at 277, the channel velocity is 1.18 m/s, and the Froude number is also high at 0.42. The hydraulic parameters vary in the vicinity of the three sills which control the bed elevation. The total sediment load is 6,500 tons per day and the equivalent sediment concentration is 240 mg/l. The Engelund-Hansen method was closer to the field measurements than any other method. The bed material coarser than 33 mm will not move. The methods of Julien-Wargadalam and Lacey gave an equilibrium channel width of 83 m and 77 m respectively, which demonstrates that the Mangyeong River is currently very wide and shallow. The planform geometry for the Mangyeong River is definitely straight with a sinuosity as low as 1.03. The thalweg and mean bed elevation profiles were analyzed using field measurements in 1976, 1993 and 2009. The measured profiles indicated that the channel has degraded about 2 m since 1976. The coarse gravel material and large width-depth ratio increase the stability of the bed material in this reach.

Solubility data of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) in the imidazolium-based ionic liquids with methylsulfate anion are presented at pressures up to about 45 MPa and at temperatures between 303.15 K and 343.15 K. The ionic liquids studied in this work were 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate ([emim][$mSO_4$]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate ([bmim][$mSO_4$]). The solubilities of $CO_2$ were determined by measuring the bubble point or cloud point pressures of the binary mixtures using a high-pressure equilibrium apparatus equipped with a variable-volume view cell. The equilibrium pressure increased very steeply at high $CO_2$ compositions. The $CO_2$ solubility in ionic liquids increased with increase of the total length of alkyl chains attached to the imidazolium cation of the ionic liquids. The phase equilibrium data for the $CO_2$ + ionic liquid systems have been correlated using the Peng-Robinson equation of state.

An experimental study has been performed to investigate the process from nonequilibrium state to equilibrium state in redeveloping turbulent boundary layer beyond separation-reattachment using pitot tube and hot-wire anemometer. The model sued in the experiment has the form of a backward facing step which is assembled by a two-dimensional 4:1 half elipse and a plate. Measurements are carried out up to a distance of about 50 step height downstream of the step, where the reattachment observed at about x/h=6.5. The profiles of the shape factor H the Clauser parameter G and the coefficient of friction $C^{f}$ exhibited the characteristics similar to those of the equilibrium turbulent boundary layer from x/h=25, and the profiles of the trubulent quantities did from x/h=35. However, the wake region of the boundary layer does not seem to recover the equilibrium turbulent boundary layer even at x/h=50. By considering the distributions of the intermittency factor it has been noted that the turbulence structure changes gradually from a mixing layer to a turbulent boundary layer along downstream direction after reattachment. This becomes clearer as we analyse the one-dimensional energy spectra and the dissipation energy spectra which are measured and caculated at various downstream positions after the backward facing step.p.

For the search of unified law of moisture movement in wood, moisture distribution of Korean red pine at non-steady state was investigated. We assume that the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) in wood depends on only temperature and relative humidity, it can be control in temperature and humidity chamber. If temperature is constant and humidity or vapor pressure is changed with sin curve shape at adequate cycles, EMC in chamber can be changed as well with sin-curve shape. The setup condition of a non-steady state in humidity control chambers is a constant temperature at $20^{\circ}C$ and 15+10 sin ${\omega}t$ percent EMC. It can be found that the distribution of moisture in the specimen with varying relative humidity are illustrated various types. Moisture in wood is complicated and vibrates with the moisture sorption process. Considering a unified law of moisture movement in wood, it is considered that the most important fact is to search the method of precise diffusion & transfer coefficients.

This paper focuses on discrete-time sliding mode control with SIIM fuzzy adaptive switching gain. The adaptive switching gain is calculated using the simplified indirect inference fuzzy logic. Two fuzzy inputs are the normal distance from the present state trajectory to the switching function and the distance from the present state trajectory to the equilibrium state. The fuzzy output $f_{out}$(k) out f k is used to adjust the speed the adaptation law depending on the location of the state trajectory. The simulation results showed that the proposed method had no chattering in case of uncertain parameter without disturbance. Moreover the convergent rate of the switching gain was faster and more stable even in case of disturbance.

The conformational properties of hydrophobic core variant ubiquitin (Val26 to Ala mutation) in an acidic solution were studied. The intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence emission spectrum, far-UV and near-UV circular dichroic spectra, the fluorescence emission spectrum of 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid in the presence of V26A ubiquitin, and urea-induced unfolding measurements indicate this variant ubiquitin to be in the partially folded molten globule conformation in solution at pH 2. The folding kinetics from molten globule to the native state was nearly identical to those from the unfolded state to the native state. This observation suggests that the equilibrium molten globule state of hydrophobic core variant ubiquitin is an on-pathway folding intermediate.

Studies are being done to replace conventional refrigerants with alternatives that have low or no ozone depletion and greenhouse warming Potentials, yet possess appropriate pro perties for a refrigeration cycle. To achieve this goal, a consistent set of thermodynamic properties of the working fluid is required. A common problem with the possible alternative refrigerants is that sufficient experimental data do not exist, thus making it difficult to develp complete equations of state that can predict properties in all regions including the vapor-liquid equilibrium. One solution is the use of the generalized equation of state correlations that can predict thermodynamic properties with a minimum number of characteristic parameters. Characteristic parameters required for the generalized equation of state are, in general, critical temperature, critical pressure, critical volume and normal boiling temperature. In this study, estimation of these characteristic parameters of refrigerants by group contribution method is developed.
