Electrospinning is emerging as a simple means of producing fibers with diameters ranging from 0.02 $\mu\textrm{m}$ to many microns. Electrospinning, however, relies on the force generated by an electric field on the surface of a polymer solution to either enhance instabilities in a thinning jet or to rapidly elongate a jet of polymer solution form a nozzle. In this article the fundamental physics and fluid dynamics on the subject matter are described, and tome of the relevant parameters in electrodynamic instabilities at polymer interfaces are discussed in some detail.

A wide passband filter consisting of 3-stage ssymmetrical coupler can be realized, where the admittance inverter parameters in equivalent circuit of asymmetrical coupled microstrip lines are given as a function of a fundamental design parameter of a bandpass filter. An experimental filter was designed over 22 percend bandwidth centered at 9GHz and optimized using Super-Compact. Measured forward transmission and forward reflection closely matched design data but measured insertion loss was slightly higher (0.7dB) than the designed value.

The compressive strength of concrete is used as the most fundamental and important material property when reinforced concrete structures are designed. It has been problem to use this value, however, because the control specimen sizes and shapes are different from every country. In this study, the effect of specimen shapes and sizes on compressive strength of concrete members was experimentally investigated based on fracture mechanics. Experiments for the mode I failure was earned out by using cylinder, cube, and prism specimens. The test results are curve fitted using least square method(LSM) to obtain the new parameters for the modified size effect law(MSEL). The analysis results show that the effect of specimen sizes and shapes on ultimate strength is apparent. The results also show stronger size effect in member when the casting direction is perpendicular to loading direction

All forecasts of a future energy demand anticipate an increase across the globe. With the increase of energy demand, the emission of $CO_2$ is also likely to increase by at least the same amount because energy supply will be based on fossil fuels, which is more apparent in a number of developing countries. In this context, the Micro Gas Turbine (MGT) is being considered as a promising solution. In order to propose a feasible concept of those technologies such as improving environmental effect and economics, we performed a sensitivity study for a biomass fueled MGT using a simulation model. The study consists of 1) the fundamental modeling using manufacturer's technical specifications, 2) the correction with the experimental data, and 3) the sensitivity study for system parameters. The simulation model was developed by PEPSE-GT 72, commercial steam/gas turbine simulation toolbox.

In this paper, the thrust force characteristic of SLIM according to the variation of several parameters was calculated from the fundamental equation based on Maxwell' s electromagnetic equation to design the transportation system which is drived by short primary single sided linear induction motor. The transportation system of moving secondary was constructed by the design values calculated on the base of simulated data and this values were compared to experimental values, and also the control method of transportation system was proposed.

The purpose of this paper is to provide the fundamental data which can be used for the design of pole transformers. For the purpose, electrical characteristics of aged mineral oil and silicone oil were analyzed by comparing with the results of virgin ones. For the experiment, an oil bath which can keep constant temperature was constructed to thermally deteriorate the specimens. And transformer materials were put together in the bath according to the their ratio in weight in the pole transformer. And the parameters such as relative permittivety, tan$\delta$ and specific resistance were measured. As a results, the permittivity of silicone oil was higher than that of mineral oil, and its decreasing rate with temperature was also higher. In addition, it was found that tan$\delta$ and specific resistance of virgin and aged oil began to differ at similar temperature.

In this paper, we propose a new fuzzy model identification method that can yield a successful fuzzy rule base for fundamental approximations. The method in this paper uses a set of input-output data and is based on a hybrid messy genetic algorithm (mGA) with a fine-tuning scheme. The mGA processes variable-length strings, while standard GAs work with a fixed-length coding scheme. For successfully identifying a complex nonlinear system, we first use the mGA, which coarsely optimizes the structure and the parameters of the fuzzy inference system, and then the gradient descent method which tine tunes the identified fuzzy model. In order to demonstrate the superiority and efficiency of the proposed scheme, we finally show its application to a nonlinear approximation.

The main objective of this study was to clarify the origin of the unsteady flows arising in a mixed-flow vaneless diffuser system and also the effects of physical components of the system. The testing equipment consists of a straight tube, a swirl generator, and a mixed-flow vaneless diffuser. Pressure fluctuations of the flow through the tube and diffuser were measured by using a semiconductor-type pressure transducer and analyzed by an FFT analyzer. In the experiment, the velocity ratio (axial velocity/peripheral velocity) of the internal flow, and the geometric parameters of the diffuser were varied. Two kinds of unsteady flows were measured according to the combination of the components, and the origin of each unsteady flow was clarified. The fundamental frequencies of unsteady flows arose were examined by two-dimensional small perturbation analysis.

This paper deals with the correlation between physical fatigue and speech signals. A treadmill task to increase fatigue and a set of subjective questionnaire for rating tiredness were designed. The results from the questionnaire and the collected bio-signals showed that the designed task imposes physical fatigue. The t-test for two-related-samples between the speech signals and fatigue showed that the parameters statistically significant to fatigue are fundamental frequency, first and second formant frequencies, long term average spectral slope, smoothed pitch perturbation quotient, relative average perturbation, pitch perturbation quotient, cepstral peak prominence, and harmonics to noise ratio. According to the experimental results, it is shown that mouth is opened small and voice is changed to be breathy as the physical fatigue accumulates.

A vision sensor should be calibrated prior to infer a Euclidian shape reconstruction. A point to point calibration. also referred to as a hard calibration, estimates calibration parameters by means of a set of 3D to 2D point pairs. We proposed a new method for determining a set of 3D to 2D pairs for the structured light hard calibration. It is simply determined based on epipolar geometry between camera image plane and projector plane, and a projector calibrating grid pattern. The projector calibration is divided two stages; world 3D data acquisition Stage and corresponding 2D data acquisition stage. After 3D data points are derived using cross ratio, corresponding 2D point in the projector plane can be determined by the fundamental matrix and horizontal grid ID of a projector calibrating pattern. Euclidian reconstruction can be achieved by linear triangulation. and experimental results from simulation are presented.
