Basalt and poly-ester fibers along with epoxy resin were used to produce inter-ply, intra-ply and functionally gradient hybrid composites. In all of the composites, the relative content of basalt fiber to poly-ester fiber was equal to 50 percent. The flexural and charpy impact properties of the hybrid composites are presented with particular regard to the effects of the hybrid types, stacking sequence of the plies, loading direction and loading speed. The results show that with properly choosing the composition and the stacking sequence of the plies; the inter-ply hybrid composites can achieve better flexural strength and impact absorption energy compared to the intra-ply and functionally gradient composites. The flexural strength and impact absorption energy of the functionally gradient hybrid composites is comparable to, or higher than the intra-ply sample. Also, by increasing the loading speed, the flexural strength increases while the flexural modulus does not have any special trend.

The archival long-slit spectra, covering the wavelength range 4050 ~ 5150 $\AA$, have been used to investigate the radial behavior of absorption line fea-tures (G4300, Fe4383, Ca4455, Fe4531, and $H{\beta}$) of an elliptical galaxy NGC 5846A. The heliocentric recession velocity of NGC 5846 has been derived as $1949{\pm}87\;kms^{-1}$. Fe absorption lines of NGC 5846A show significant radial gradients with the mean slope of $\Delta/Delta(r")=-0.863\pm0.202$. There is also a significant radial gradient of G band with a slope of $-1.109{\pm}0.098$. On the other hand, no radial gradients has been detected on the Ca4455 and $H{\beta}$ absorptions of NGC 5846A. A metallicity gradient, which is derived from the Fe line gradients, is similar to the abundance gradient predicted by Larson's (1975) dissipative models for the formation of elliptical galaxies. We also note that a galaxy-galaxy interaction could affect the line gradients of NGC 5864A.

We consider the following Dirichlet initial boundary value problem with a gradient absorption and a nonlocal source $$\frac{{\partial}u}{{\partial}t}-div({\mid}{\nabla}u{\mid}^{p-2}{\nabla}u)={\lambda}u^k{\displaystyle\smashmargin{2}{\int\nolimits_{\Omega}}}u^sdx-{\mu}u^l{\mid}{\nabla}u{\mid}^q$$ in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝ^N, where p > 1, the parameters k, s, l, q, λ > 0 and µ ≥ 0. Firstly, we establish local existence for weak solutions; the aim of this part is to prove a crucial priori estimate on |∇u|. Then, we give appropriate conditions in order to have existence and uniqueness or nonexistence of a global solution in time. Finally, depending on the choices of the initial data, ranges of the coefficients and exponents and measure of the domain, we show that the non-negative global weak solution, when it exists, must extinct after a finite time.

In this paper, the difference of the property of absorption and desorption for five species in semi-steady state are studied. The species used are listed in Table 1 and the dimension of specimen was $8\times8{\times}T$(Tangential direction)cm and tested in various conditions. A change of average moisture content with time were measured in each cycles. The results obtained are summarized as follows. When the relative humidity in air was maximum or minimum, the distribution of moisture In wood of all specimens were illustrated by exponential curves of decrease or increased from lace 10 center of wood. From the consideration of coefficient of decrease(C), the amount of moisture change of spruce was larger than the others. The pheonomenon was considered no relation to the specific gravity in air dry, but the wood structures. The velocity of the absorption and desorption for species decreased in the order spruce(Picea sitchensis) neodobam(Fagus crenata), solsong(Tsuga heterophylla), meranti(Shorea sp.) and kaesoo(Cercidiphyllum japoicum). In case of constant temperature and water vapor pressure is changed. the amount of absorbed moisture was larger than that of constant water vapor pressure and temperature vaned. In this fact, it is considered that the property of sorption of wood is strongly influenced by vapor pressure gradient than temperature gradient.

This paper Presents the Potential gradient characteristics of structure grounding electrode when a test current flows through grounding electrode. In order to analyze the potential gradient of ground surface on structure grounding electrode, the reduced scale model has been used. The potential gradient has been measured and analyzed for types of structure using the hemispherical grounding simulation system in real time. The structures were designed through reducing real buildings and fabricated with four types on a scale of one-one hundred sixty. The supporter was made to put up with weight of structure and could move into vertical, horizontal, rotary direction. When a test current flowed through structure grounding electrodes, ground potential rise was the lowest value at electric cage type(type B). According to resistivity and absorption percentage In concrete attached to structure, the potential distribution of ground surface appeared differently.

Design of stepwise foam claddings subjected to air-blast is performed based on random Voronoialgorithm. FE models are constructed using the random Voronoialgorithm, and numerical analysis is carried out to simulate deformation mode and energy absorption of the cladding by the ABAQUS/Explicit software. The FE model is validated by test result, and good agreement is achieved. The deformation patterns are presented to give an insight into the influences of distribution on deformation mechanisms. The energy absorbed by the stepwise foam cladding is examined, and the parameter effects, including layer number, gradient, and blast loading, are discussed. Results indicate that the energy absorption capacity increases with the number of layer, gradient degree, and blast pressure increasing.

The absorption characteristics of water vapor into a LiBr-H$_2$O solution flowing down on finned inclined surfaces are numerically investigated in order to study the absorbing performances of different surface shapes of finned tubes as an absorber element. A three-dimensional numerical model is developed. The momentum, energy, and diffusion equations are solved simultaneously using a finite difference method. In order to obtain the temperature and concentration distributions, the Runge-Kutta and the Successive over relaxation methods are used. The flat, circular, elliptic, and parabolic shapes of the tube surfaces are considered in order to find the optimal surface shapes for absorption. In addition, the effects of the fin intervals and Reynolds numbers are studied. The results show that the absorption mainly happens near the fin tip due to the temperature and concentration gradient, and the absorbing performance of the parabolic surface is better than those of the other surfaces.

In this paper, we investigated the extinction, positivity, and decay estimates of the solutions to the initial-boundary value problem of the semilinear parabolic equation with nonlinear gradient source and interior absorption terms by using the integral norm estimate method. We found that the decay estimates depend on the choices of initial data, coefficients and domain, and the first eigenvalue of the Laplacean operator with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition plays an important role in the proofs of main results.

Film absorption involves simultaneous heat and mass transfer in the vapor-liquid system. In the present work, the absorption process of water vapor by an aqueous soluton of LiBr flowing inside of the vertical tube was investigated. The continuity, momentum, energy and diffusion equations for the solution film and vapor were formulated in integral forms and solved numerically. The model could predict the film thickness, the pressure gradient, and the heat and mass transfer rate. Particularly the effects of vapor flow conditions on the absorption process were investigated in terms of the vapor Reynolds number. As the vapor Reynolds number increased, the shear stress at the vapor-solution interface also increased. Consequently solution film became thinner at higher vapor flowrate under the co-currentflow condition. Thinner film was capable of higher heat transfer to the wall and leaded to higher absorption rate of the water vapor into the solution film.

In this study, the effect of carbonization temperature and mixing ratio of ceramics manufactured from sawdust, chaff and charcoal on sound absorption performance and density profile was investigated. The density profile of ceramics prepared by the addition rates of sawdust, chaff and charcoal showed the highest value at 91.00% when the ratio of sawdust, chaff and charcoal was 50:25:15. However, the difference in density profile according to the addition rate was insignificant. The density profile of ceramics manufactured according to the carbonization temperature showed the highest value of 88.06% when manufactured at 800℃. However, it does not show any particular trend, so it is understood that the effect of the carbonization temperature on the density gradient is small. On the other hand, the sound absorption coefficients of ceramics prepared by the addition rates of sawdust, chaff and charcoal is between 0.3 and 0.4 at almost all frequencies when the addition rates of sawdust, chaff and charcoal are 50:30:10 and 50:35:5, respectively. Therefore, as the chaff particles increased, the sound absorption performance was improved. In addition, the sound absorption coefficients of the ceramics manufactured at each carbonization temperature showed the highest value in the ceramics manufactured at 1,200℃.
