As flexible manufacturing technology has become available across a broad range of applications, an increasingly large number of firms have confronted decisions about when to adopt the FMS technology and the size of FMS at that time. For small to medium size firms that should invest under budget limitation and high investment risk, proper size of FMS adoption at proper time is very important. In this paper the discrete optimal control theory has been used to make decisions about the size and timing of FMS capacity expansion over a planning period. Sensitivity analysis is presented for analysing the behavior of the model to variations of model parameters.

This study concerns a large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent flow around a bluff body inside a sudden expansion cylindrical chamber, a configuration which resembles a premixed gas turbine combustor The simulation code is constructed by using the general coordinate system based on the physical contravariant velocity components. The Smagorinsky model is employed and the calculated Reynolds number is 5,000 based on the bulk velocity and the diameter of the inlet pipe. The combined grid technique and cylindrical grid are tested in the numerical simulation with complex geometry. The predicted turbulent statistics are evaluated by comparing with LDV measurement data. The numerical flow visualizations depict the behavior of turbulent mixing process behind the flame holder.

Intense excimer laser irradiation of polymer films results in expansion and the following contraction , recovering ithe initial flat surface. The morphological dynamics is meausred directly by nanosecond time-resolved interferometry for polystyrene(PS), polyurethane, and polyimide films. The expansion proceeds with a speed of a few nm/ns , while the contraction depends upon the polymer ; very low contraction for PS, rapid 2 component shrinking for polyurethane, and rapid monotonous decay for polymide. These characteristic behavior are considered from viewpoints of interpenetrating structures of polymers, glass-rubber phase transitioni, thermal diffusion, and photothermal mechanism.

Bumper is designed to protect the automotive frame without damage at low velocity. Expanded polypropylene (EPP) foam is used in the bumper as an energy absorbing material. In order to exactly predict the energy absorbing performance of the foam material under impact loading condition, it is important to use high strain rate material properties. In this study, a new apparatus for dynamic compression tests was developed to investigate the high strain rate behavior of EPP foams. Three kinds of EPP foams which have different expansion ratios were tested to investigate the quasi-static and dynamic compression behavior. Quasi-static compressions were performed at low strain rates of 0.001/s, 0.1/s and 1/s. The dynamic compressions were carried out at high strain rates of 50/s and 100/s with the developed apparatus. It was observed that the EPP foam has significant strain rate effect as compared to quasi-static behavior.

As we recognize the space, humans will experience a process to synthesize elements of cognitive various methods, come to understand the environment. It is intended that on humans to recognize the space, it is intended to act directly under study how to recognize. Humans can know that the determining action based on the values and physical condition, based on the space in which they have been recognized, there are differences in the behavior of the human as a result. Social and arrangement of components - physical region that is cultural difficulties constitute experience specific areas therein. Space for human activities and human, can know that it is not a memory of human behavior, to have a closer relationship with human perception. That is, the description will be aware of the space via the perceptual phenomenon of man due to physical elements performed in the space, what acts about what happens. Through an understanding of the potential for this, and emotion space production consisting only of physical visual element future, and use act of the area to be expressed from his recognition, through the expansion of the perceptual elements, diverse experience richer and more it is a case where deemed necessary access space configuration capable of a broad depth study of this portion is happening, in order to constitute a space, a new interpretation for human behavior is progressing.

The differential settlement may be generated by the variation of stresses caused by the soft ground or ground water. The cracks are usually created when the structures are leaned or deformed due to the differential settlement. A grouting method has been mainly used till now to improve the bearing capacity of the ground when the foundation of the structure is deformed by differential settlements. However, when this method is used, it takes too long time to obtain the required strength and the period of the reinforcement effect is not long enough. The advantage of GPCON injection method is to have good mechanical properties and durability, and easy construction. In addition, the GPCON method rapidly fills up the void in soils by injecting some materials into underground and also obtain the increase of bearing and shearing forces due to the expansion. In this paper the restoration capability of the foundation settlement of railway and subway subjected to cyclic loading is analytically and experimentally evaluated using the high density rapidly expansion GPCON in order to investigate the types of deformations and vibrational characteristics.

Glass-ceramics were fabricated by heat-treatment of glass obtained by melting a coal bottom ash with $Li_2O$ addition. The main crystal grown in the glass-ceramics, containing 10 wt% $Li_2O$, was $\beta$-spodumene solid solution, while in $Li_2O$ 20 wt% specimen was mullite, identified using XRD. The activation energy and Avrami constant for crystallization were calculated and showed that bulk crystallization behavior will be predominant, and this expectation agreed with the microstructural observations. The crystal phase grown in $Li_2O$ 10 wt% glass-ceramics had a dendrite-like shaped whereas the shape was flake-like in the 20 wt% case. The thermal expansion coefficient of the $Li_2O$ 10 wt% glass-ceramics was lower than that of the glass having the same composition, owing to the formation of a $\beta$-spodumene phase. For example, the thermal expansion coefficient of $Li_2O$ 10 wt% glass-ceramics was $20\times10^{-7}$, which is enough for application in various heat-resistance fields. But above 20 wt% $Li_2O$, the thermal coefficient expansion of glass-ceramics, on the contrary, was higher than that of the same composition glass, due to formation of mullite.

Multipurpose Floor Level Joint(MFLJ) is a new construction technology system which was developed in domestic. By using this system, it is possible not only to absorb the deformation at expansion joint due to shrinkages of concrete but also to make ease the floor leveling during the concrete casting at floor. The system consists of two elements, supporting devices and rails. Their structural capacities were verified through several experimental programs, such as compressive strength test of support and bending test of rail. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the deformation absorbing capacity of the floor level joint. An experimental work was carried out to simulate the deformation condition at the joint and the test result was analyzed and evaluated. In addition, FEM analysis for expansion joint of typical building was also performed to predict the real behavior of MFLJ. The test results showed that MFLJ has sufficient deformation capacity required to act as expansion joint.

The case of failure of Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) on the cement concrete pavement was reported in Korea. In the United States America, the fly ash has less than 10 percent Cao reported that prevent expansion by ASR. Most of all fly ash in Korea have less than 10 percent CaO, therefore it is similar ASTM F fly ash in the USA. Crushed aggregates of the test section had expansion behavior by potential ASR that the ASTM C 1260 test method tested expansion 0.17 percent during 14 days. The test section of concrete pavement used crushed aggregate was constructed that fly ash have 20 percent weight of cementitious materials to prevent expansion by ASR. This study was performed flexural strength test for elapsed days and durability by freeze-thaw test. It was shown that flexural strength was increased elapsed days and good performed freeze-thaw test. This study shown that fly ash concrete pavement was good performance in the test section.
