In this paper, a theoretical analysis is presented on the mechanics of the grinding by hemispheric type electroplated CBN wheel. The grinding forces acting on a single grain were calculated from its geometry by assuming the abrasive grain is spherical. Then. the total grinding forces were obtained by estimating the number of acting abrasive grains and the area of contact. The model includes the grinding variables such as wheel speed. feed speed. depth of cut, and grinding wheel positions. Experiments were also carried out to compare with the analytical results. The experimental results were found to be in good agreement with the analytical ones.

Thermoelectric conversion efficiency of thermoelectric elements can be increased by using a structure combining n-type and p-type semiconductors. From the above point of view, attention was directed at ZnO as a candidate n-type semiconductor material and investigations were made. As the result, a dimensionless figure of merit ZT close to 0.28 (1073K) was obtained for specimens produced by the PCS (Pulse Current Sintering) method with addition of specified quantities of $TiO_2$, CoO, and $Al_2O_3$ to ZnO. It was found that the interstitial $TiO_2$ in the ZnO restrains the grain growth and CoO acts onto the bond between grains. The influence of the inclusion of $TiO_2$ and CoO onto the sintering behavior also was investigated.

Three types of solar grain dryers, namely , the solar grain bin dryer, the solar greenhouse rotary drum dryer and small scale solar green house tray dryer, have been tested. The results showed that each type of solar grain dryer has its feature. These solar drying units have three main advantages : (1) Required commercial energy to remove 1Kg moist from rough rice is only 5.3% to 15.8% of the energy consumed by common heated dryer : 2) The area of solar drying system is only about 10% of the area of the sunny ground to give equal drying capacity ; (3) There are good drying quality in the moisture uniform , germination percentage, and grain color.

A flow visualization near submerged nozzle of solid rocket motor was conducted by experiments. A numerical simulation was also performed to reveal detailed phenomena. Radial cold flow simulating hot gas was introduced by a porous grain model which was manufactured by perforated steel plates. The grain model was mounted in high-pressure chamber which has quartz glass at the top of the grain model. From the high-speed images, a rotating vortex was observed and the two type of counter-rotating momentums were generated in numerical results. The rotating momentum was generated at the fin-slot grain because of unbalance between high-velocity flow from slots and low-velocity flow from fin-bases. As a result, roll torques can be produced by the rotating vortex tube.

The microstructure evolution during a hot forging of Waspaloy was investigated using the recrystallization model and FEM simulation. In order to obtain an uniform microstructure, hot forging was carried out by two step. The change of grain size during hot forging has a deep connection with dynamic recrystallization behavior. Avrami-type constitutive equation for the dynamic recrystallization was implemented into an user subroutine of 2D FE simulator. The evolution of grain structure in the two-step forging of Waspaloy was simulated using the 2D FEM user-subroutine. The detailed variation of microstructures due to dynamic recrystallization could effectively be predicted at various locations in a forged pancake.

본 연구에서는 thermal evaporation법을 이용하여 제작한 CdTe 후막의 미세구조, 전기적 특성 및 X-선 조사에 따른 특성을 비교분석하였다. 기판온도를 $370{\sim}450^{\circ}C$로 변화시키며 증착하였으며, CdCl2 첨가에 따른 미세구조 변화를 관찰하였다. CdTe 막의 상 하부에 전극을 형성하여 I-V 특성을 평가하고, 실제 X-ray를 샘플에 조사하여 sensitivity를 측정하였다. 박막형성 초기에는 기판온도가 증가함에 따라 grain size가 증가하였지만, grain uniformity는 감소하였다. X-ray 특성향상을 위해서는 grain size와 uniformity 모두 중요한 인자이기 때문에 uniformity 향상을 위해 Cl을 첨가하였다. 미량의 Cl 첨가에서는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았지만 더 많은 양의 Cl 첨가 시, grain size 와 uniformity 모두 증가되는 것을 확인하였으며, 그에 따라 I-V, X-ray 조사 특성 모두 개선되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Experimental tests have been done with swirl injector and helical grain configuration to increase the regression rate of hybrid rocket solid fuel. Two types of injector were designed to evaluate the swirl effect of oxidizer stream on the increase in the regression rate. Results showed Type II injector with swirl number of 3.61 induced the better regression rate than Type I injector. Meanwhile, fuels with two different pitch number of 6 and 100 were used to analyzes the flow characteristics on the enhancement of regression rate. Test with fuels of pitch 6 showed better increase in the regression rate than in the pitch 100 when no swirler was imposed. This is due to the generation of strong turbulences in the oxidizer stream along the pitch 6 configuration. However, the regression rate could be increased further in the fuel with pitch 100 than with pitch 6 when swirl flow was imposed by Type II injector. This result implied that the fuel with pitch 100 could take a role of sustainer of the imposed swirl by swirler II instead of turbulence generator.

Rice grain shape is one of the key components of grain yield and market value. An understanding of the genetic basis of the variation in grain shape could be used to improve grain shape. In this study, we developed a total of 265 F₂ individuals derived from a cross between japonica cultivars (Josaeng-jado and Langi) and used this population for quantitative trait locus (QLT) analysis. Correlation analysis was performed to identify relationships between grain traits (GL: grain length, GW: grain width, L/W: ratio of length to width, TGW: 1,000 grain weight). The grain shape was positively correlated with GL and TGW, and negatively correlated with GW. In QTL analysis associated with grain shape, one QTL for GL, qGL5, detected on chromosome 5, explained 20.3% of the phenotypic variation (PV), while two QTLs, qGW5 (PV=36.1) and qGW7 (PV=26.1), for GW were identified on chromosomes 5 and 7, respectively. Evaluation of the effects of each of the QTLs on the grain shape in the population showed a significant difference in the grain size in positive lines compared with the lines without the QTLs. According to the QTL combination of the allelic-types, the grain shape of the tested lines varied from semi-round type to long spindle-shaped type. The results of this study extend our knowledge about the genetic pool governing the diversity of grain shape in japonica cultivars and could be used to improve the grain shape of this species through marker-assisted selective breeding in Korea.

One of the characteristics of polycrystalline graphene that determines its material properties is grain size. Mechanical properties such as Young's modulus, yield strain and tensile strength depend on the grain size and show a reverse Hall-Petch effect at small grain size limit for some properties under certain conditions. While there is agreement on the grain size effect for Young's modulus and yield strain, certain MD simulations have led to disagreement for tensile strength. Song et al. showed a decreasing behavior for tensile strength, that is, a pseudo Hall-Petch effect for the small grain size domain up to 5 nm. On the other hand, Sha et al. showed an increasing behavior, a reverse Hall-Petch effect, for grain size domain up to 10 nm. Mortazavi et al. also showed results similar to those of Sha et al. We suspect that the main difference of these two inconsistent results is due to the different modeling. The modeling of polycrystalline graphene with regular size and (hexagonal) shape shows the pseudo Hall-Petch effect, while the modeling with random size and shape shows the reverse Hall-Petch effect. Therefore, this study is conducted to confirm that different modeling is the main reason for the different behavior of tensile strength of the polycrystalline structures. We conducted MD simulations with models derived from the Voronoi tessellation for two types of grain size distributions. One type is grains of relatively similar sizes; the other is grains of random sizes. We found that the pseudo Hall-Petch effect and the reverse Hall-Petch effect of tensile strength were consistently shown for the two different models. We suspect that this result comes from the different crack paths, which are related to the grain patterns in the models.

The concept of "adaptability to heavy nitrogen" of rice plant was reconsidered in view of productivity with Jinheung (leading local variety) and IR667 (semi tropical variety) under the field condition. The results are as follows; 1. IR667 had higher yield and leaf area index at high nitrogen level than Jinheung. 2. IR667 increased more panicles, spikelets, filled grain ratio and grain weight by increasing nitrogen. 3. IR667 showed higher productive efficiency of grain and leaf area per unit nitrogen. 4. IR667 was higher in the productive efficiency of grain per unit leaf area. 5. IR667 appeared as panicle and spikelet number type and Jinheung as grain weight type according to yield components. 6. These results indicate that IR667 has greater productive adaptability to heavy nitrogen under the field condition.
