Diesel engine is one of the most expensive and important components in a ship. Many researchers are interested in increasing the performance of diesel engines. Design of an optimum cooling system should also contribute to the enhancement of the performance as well as the efficiency of engines. In this study, we investigated the flow pattern within the cooling system of a marine diesel engine by using numerical simulation prior to the study of the heat-transfer problem. The engine cooling system is composed of five cooling units each unit containing a water-jacket and a cylinder head. Based on the calculated data, we also conducted theoretical analysis that can predict the flow-rate delivery in each of the five units.

The electronic properties of altretamine(2,4,6-tris [dimethylamino]-1,3,5-triazine) adsorbed on epitaxial graphene (EG) were investigated by core-level photoemission spectroscopy (CLPES) in conjunction with low energy electron diffraction (LEED). We found that altretamine molecule adsorbed onto interface layer (S1) of graphene as we confirm decrement of S1 peak using CLPES and haziness of LEED pattern. Moreover, the measured work function changes verified that increased adsorption of the altretamine on graphene layer showed n-type doping characteristics due to charge transfer from altretamine to graphene through the nitrogens. Two distinct nitrogen bonding feature associated with the N 1s peak was clearly observed in the core-level spectra indicating two different chemical environments.

This paper reports the application study of the ground reinforcement under a buried pipeline subjected to differential settlement via a finite element modeling. The soil-reinforcement interaction helps to minimize the differential settlement between the adjoining pipe segments. The settlement pattern and deformation slope of a pipeline have been evaluated for a boundary condition at the joint between a rigid structure and a pipeline. The analysis results are compared for both non-reinforced and reinforced cases to numerically evaluate the stress transfer mechanism and the effectiveness of the soil reinforcement for restraining the settlement of the pipeline.

This paper deals with the analysis of the PC communication service system performance which will be installed as a gateway between PSTN and PSDN. Firstly, we classify the data traffic pattern into interactive, conversational, and file transfer type from the actual statistics. Secondly, we model the system structure as a closed queueing network model with multiservers and multiple customer classes and derive the analytic method to be able to measure the system performance using Mean Value Analysis. Finally, the simulation results indicate that the analytic method obtained is a good approximation method to measure the system performance of the PC communication service system as a gateway between PSTN and PSDN.

According to increasing of data transfer rate, printed circuit board (PCB) is required improvement of transmission speed. Optical PCB and its packaging technology can be one of the solutions that overcome the limitations of conventional electrical PCB. The data transmission capacity will be increased 10 Tbps at 2015. To this end, studies on various OPCB technologies are being conducted. For cost-effective and high- performance OPCB, studies of optical coupling by polymer replication process are conducted. In this work, optical waveguide and optical fiber array block were sequentially fabricated by polymer pattern replication method. Using this method we successfully demonstrate low loss optical fiber coupling between optical waveguide and optical fiber arrays. And researches on flip chip bonding process and using electro-optic connectors for packaging are conducted.

Static electricity in electronics manufacturing plants causes the economic loss, yet it is one of the least understood and least recognized effects haunting the industry today. Today's challenge in semiconductor devices is to achieve greater functional density pattern and to miniaturize electronic systems of being more fragile by electrostatic discharges(ESD) phenomena. As the use of automatic handling equipment for static-sensitive semiconductor components is rapidly increased, most manufacturers need to be more alert to the problem of ESD. One of the most common causes of electrostatic damage is the direct transfer of electrostatic charge from the human body or a charged material to the static-sensitive devices. To evaluate the ESD hazards by charged human body and devices, in this paper, characteristics of electrostatic attenuation in domestic semiconductor devices is investigated and the voltage to cause electronic component failures is investigated by field-induced charged device model(FCDM) tester. The FCDM simulator provides a fast and inexpensive test that faithfully represents ESD hazards in plants. Also the results obtained in this paper can be used for the prevention of semiconductor failure from ESD hazards.

In this paper, a segregated finite element program for the analysis of an axisymmetric steady flow has been developed in order to investigate the flow inside an annular pipe with a periodic obstacle. For the verification of the developed code, a developing pipe flow has been solved and the solution is in a good agreement with the existing results. For the analysis of the flow inside an annular pipe with a periodic obstacle, three types of periodic obstacle are considered. From the present numerical analysis, various physical variables including flow pattern, pressure distribution and residence time are investigated as a preliminary study to the heat transfer analysis of an annular pipe flow with a periodic obstacle.

Molecular dynamics simulations of nanoimprint lithography in which a stamp with patterns is pressed onto amorphous poly-(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) surface are performed to study the deformation of polymer. Force fields including bond, angle, torsion, inversion, van der Waals and electrostatic potential are used to describe the intermolecular and intramolecular force of PMMA molecules and stamp. Periodic boundary condition is used in horizontal direction and Nose-Hoover thermostat is used to control the system temperature. As the simulation results, the adhesion forces between stamp and polymer are calculated and the mechanism of deformation are investigated. The effects of the adhesion and friction forces on the polymer deformation are also studied to analyze the pattern transfer in nanoimprint lithography. The mechanism of polymer deformation is investigated by means of inspecting the indentation process, molecular configurational properties, and molecular configurational energies.

Transfer of Candida albicans grown in Sabouraud medium to the RPMI medium induces the transition from a nonpathogenic yeast form to a pathogenic hyphal form. This transition was severely inhibited in a dose-dependent manner when deer antler extract was added to the RPMI medium in a nontoxic range (up to $500{\mu}g$). In that range, deer antler extract inhibited the hyphal transition and cell growth, whereas no effect was observed on the yeast growth. When hydrophobic or hydrophilic fractions were prepared by detergent-solubilization of deer antler extract, the hydrophobic fraction showed a large degree of inhibition of the hyphal growth in Candida albicans. Neither fraction affected the growth in the yeast form. The pattern of chitin localization in the culture of the yeast form grown in RPMI in the presence of deer antler extract was confirmed by calcofluor staining and this exhibited strongly the suppression of hyphal transition.

In this paper, the rheological chances in sensitive materials was investigated by using QCA(Quartz Chemical Analyzer). Langmuir-Blodgett method was used to transfer sensitive material to the quartz crystals because of its facility to control that amount, and deposited sensitive material has uniformity to compare with other methods respectively. For the gas sensor using mass loading effect of quartz crystal microbalance, generally the Sauberary equation has been believed to represent the only mass loading effect. But when the organic gas is adsorpted into sensitive material, the rheological changes are occurred with different pattern as to the kinds of gases. Thus, much simpler method to identify the organic or hazard gas will be obtained by the consideration of resonant frequency changes and resonant admittance changes simultaneously.
