In order to determine the enthalpy profile in the high temperature transpiration cooling test facility for the air-breating engine compartments, theoretical calculation and measurement for the flow of the test section are performed. The mass averaged enthalpy value determined by the heat balance and sonic throat methods is 10 MJ/kg. The centerline enthalpy value measured using the slug type copper calorimeter is 15 MJ/kg. Typically, the ratio of centerline and mass averaged enthalpy should be varies from 1.4 to 4. This facility has lower bound of enthalpy profile. It will be effective in testing of high temperature transpiration cooling.

To investigate the underground structure of shallow water, Han-river near Yangsou-Ri, high resolution hydroacoustic measurements were carried out for the engineering design of railroad bridge. The acoustic source was a Boomer with an energy of 90 to 280J and in a frequency range up to about 16KHz. The reflected signals were received by using both traditional hydrophones(passive element) and a specially devised receiver unit(active element) mainly composed of piezofilms and preamplifier. They are connected to the "SUMMIT" data acquisition system(DMT-GeoTec company), where the sampling interval was set to 1/32㎳. The source position was continuously monitored by a precision DGPS system whose positioning accuracy was on the order of loom. For the quality control purposes, two different source-receiver geometries were taken. That is to say, the measurements were repeated along the profile everytime depending on the different source energy(175J, 280J), the receiving elements(passive, active) and two different source-receiver geometries. It was shown that the data resolution derived from a proper arrangement with the active hydrophone could be greatly enhanced and hence the corresponding profile section caused by the regular data processing system "FOCUS" accounted excellently for the underground formation below the shallow water.w the shallow water.

A study has been conducted to provide the experimental information for the velocity and temperature profiles of steam-air mixutre and to investigate their roles on the film condensation with wavy interface. Saturated gas mixture of steam-air was made to flow through the nearly horizontal$(4.1^{\circ})$ square duct of 0.1m width and 1.56m length at atmospheric pressure, and was condensated on the bottom cold plate. The air mass fraction in the gas mixture was changed from zero(W =0, pure steam) to one(W =1, pure air), and the bulk velocity was varied from 2 to 4 m/s. Water film was injected concurrently to investigate the effect of wavy interface on the condensation. The velocity and temperature profiles were measured by LDA system and thermocouples along the three parameters ; air mass fraction, mixture velocity and film flow rate. The profiles moved toward the interface with increasing steam mass fraction, mixture velocity and film flow rate. The Prandtl and Schmidt numbers were near one in the present experimental range, however there was no complete similarity between the velocity and temperature profiles of gas mixture. And the heat transfer characteristics and interfacial structure were coupled with each other.

The shot peening is largely used for a surface treatment in which small spherical parts called shots are blasted on a surface of a metallic components with velocities up to 100m/s. This treatment leads to an improvement of fatigue behavior due to the developed compressive residual stresses, and so it has gained widespread acceptance in the automobile and aerospace industries. The residual stress profile on surface layer depends on the parameters of shot peening, which are, shot velocity, shot diameter, coverage, impact angle, material properties etc. and the method to confirm this profile is only measurement by X-ray diffractometer. Despite its importance to automobile and aerospace industries, little attention has been devoted to the accurate modelling of the process. In this paper, the simulation technique is applied to predict the magnitude and distribution of the residual stress and plastic deformation caused by shot peening with the help of the finite element analysis.

In research on behavioral studies, significant attention has been paid to the stage-sequential process for longitudinal data. Latent class profile analysis (LCPA) is an useful method to study sequential patterns of the behavioral development by the two-step identification process: identifying a small number of latent classes at each measurement occasion and two or more homogeneous subgroups in which individuals exhibit a similar sequence of latent class membership over time. Maximum likelihood (ML) estimates for LCPA are easily obtained by expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, and Bayesian inference can be implemented via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). However, unusual properties in the likelihood of LCPA can cause difficulties in ML and Bayesian inference as well as estimation in small samples. This article describes and addresses erratic problems that involve conventional ML and Bayesian estimates for LCPA with small samples. We argue that these problems can be alleviated with a small amount of prior input. This study evaluates the performance of likelihood and MCMC-based estimates with the proposed prior in drawing inference over repeated sampling. Our simulation shows that estimates from the proposed methods perform better than those from the conventional ML and Bayesian method.

We propose a simple nondestructive method to obtain refractive-index profiles of a graded-index (GRIN) light-focusing rod by means of a diffraction grating. In our proposed method, a laser beam is illuminated through a diffraction grating perpendicular to the axis of the GRIN lens and the separation between the zeroth and first-order diffraction peaks is measured and analyzed. The results demonstrate that the refractive-index profiles of commercially available GRIN lenses can be successfully reconstructed.

Since radio interference has occurred in the TRS frequency band in the south coastal area, Korea from 1994, similar interference has been observed in the mobile-cellular frequency band. Measurement showed that the sources of the radio interference are those from the base stations for digital cellular systems in Japan. This because the receiving frequency of the base stations in Korea is same as the transmitting frequency of the base stations in Japan. Since the distance between Korea and Japan is 240 ~ 300 km, we can conclude that the main reason of the interference is ducting. In this paper a ducting channel is modeled by split-step DMFT algorithm, and simulation results for measured index profile far east coast and west sea area are analyzed.

Aerostatic planar XY stages are frequently used as the main frames of precision positioning systems. The machining and assembly process of the rails and bed of the stage is one of first processes performed when the system is built. When the system is complete, the 2D position, motion, and stage flatness errors are measured in tests. If the stage errors exceed the application requirements, the stage must be remachined and the assembly process must be repeated. This is difficult and time-consuming work. In this paper, a method for estimating the errors of a planar XY stage is proposed that can be applied when the rails and bed of the stage are evaluated. Profile measurements, estimates of the motion error, and 2D position estimation models were considered. A comparison of experimental results and our estimates indicated that the estimated errors were within $1{\mu}m$ of their true values. Thus, the proposed estimation method for 2D position and flatness errors of an aerostatic planar XY stage is expected to be a useful tool during the assembly process of guideways.

Planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF) has been widely used to obtain two dimensional fuel distribution. Acetone PLIF is chosen because fluorescence signal from acetone as a fluorescent tracer is less sensitive to oxygen quenching than other dopants. Acetone PLIF is applied to measure quantitative air excess ratio distribution in an engine fueled with LPG. Acetone is excited by KrF excimer laser (248nm) and its fluorescence image is acquired by ICCD camera with a cut-off filter to suppress Mie scattering from the laser light. For the purpose of quantifying PLIF signal, an image processing method including the correction of laser sheet beam profile is suggested. Raw images are divided by each intensity of laser energy and profile of laser sheet beam. Inhomogeneous fluorescence images scaled with the reference data, which is taken by a calibration process, are converted to air excess ratio distribution. This investigation shows instantaneous quantitative measurement of planar air excess ratio distribution for gaseous fuel.

Radioisotopes have been widely used throughout industry to optimize processes, solve problems and improve product quality. A gamma scanning technique using radiation via sealed source (Co-60) was carried out in order to investigate vertical density profile of catalyst regenerator of RFCCU. Also through the radiotracer experiments, the flow characteristics of catalyst was measured. The catalyst samples were irradiated with neutron in HANARO reactor to produce lanthanum-140 to be used as radiotracer for tracing the catalyst itself in catalyst regenerator of RFCCU. The radiotracer was monitored around the catalyst regenerator using collimated NaI scintillation detectors. The results of the experiments were used to diagnose the performance of the RFCCU.
