We have performed measurements of the local magnetic field distribution of YBCO coated conductors using Low-temperature Scanning Hall Probe Microscopy (LT-SHPM). Distribution of stray magnetic field of various types of YBCO coated conductors in the superconducting state was measured in presence of external magnetic fields. We analyzed one dimensional and two dimensional local current distribution using inversion technique from the magnetic field distribution.

Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) is a technique for identification of modal parameters by measurement of only the system's response. On many lightweight structures, such as load-speaker cones and disk drive read/write heads, is impossible or impractical to measure the input forces. Another characteristic of lightweight structure is their sensitivity to mass loading from sensors. The Scanning Laser Doppler Vibrometry(SLDV) allows response measurements to be taken without mass loading. One disadvantage of OMA testing compared to tradition input output modal testing is the OMA mode shapes are un-scaled. This means that the mode shape obtained from an OMA test can not used for analytical structural modification studies. However, the un-scaled mode shapes from an OMA test can be used to update a Finite Element Model (FEM). The updated FEM can then be used to analytically predict the effect of structural modifications. This paper will present the results of an OMA test performed on a simple plate and motor in operating conditions. The un-scaled mode shapes from this test will be used to update a FEM model of the system. The updated FEM model will be then be used to predict the effect of attaching a mass to the plate. The shapes predicted by the FEM for the modified system will be compared to a second OMA test on the modified system

Registration between image and object space is a fundamental step in photogrammetry and computer vision. Along with rapid development of sensors - multi/hyper spectral sensor, laser scanning sensor, radar sensor etc., the needs for registration between different sensors are ever increasing. There are two important considerations on different sensor registration. They are sensor invariant feature extraction and correspondence between them. Since point to point correspondence does not exist in image and laser scanning data, it is necessary to have higher entities for extraction and correspondence. This leads to modify first, existing mathematical and geometrical model which was suitable for point measurement to line measurements, second, matching scheme. In this research, linear feature is selected for sensor invariant features and matching entity. Linear features are incorporated into mathematical equation in the form of extended collinearity equation for registration problem known as photo resection which calculates exterior orientation parameters. The other emphasis is on the scheme of finding matched entities in the aide of RANSAC (RANdom SAmple Consensus) in the absence of correspondences. To relieve computational load which is a common problem in sampling theorem, deterministic sampling technique and selecting 4 line features from 4 sectors are applied.

Supramolecular structures of anthraquinone molecules on a metallic surface are studied using scanning tunneling microscope (STM) under ultrahigh-vacuum conditions. When we deposited anthraquinone molecules on Au(111) substrate, the molecules formed three different phases (Chevron type, tetragon type and disordered type) on the surface. Based on our STM measurements, we proposed models for the observed molecular structures. Chevrons are consisted of several molecular chains, which make well-ordered two-dimensional islands by some weak interrow interactions and we could observe tetragon structures which make array of (111) metallic surface. each molecular rows in the chevrons are stabilized by two parallel O-H hydrogen bonds and disordered structures are observed 1-dimensional phase with hydrogen bond. First-principles calculations based on density functional theory are performed to reproduce the proposed models. Distances and energy gains for each intermolecular bond are estimated. In this presentation, we explain possible origins of these molecular structures in terms of hydrogen bonds, Van der Waals interactions and molecule-substrate interactions.

The formation and structure of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) by the adsorption of acetyl-protected octylthioacetate (OTA) on Au(111) in a catalytic tetrabutylammonium cyanide (TBACN) solution were examined by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Molecular-scale STM imaging revealed that OTA molecules on Au(111) in a pure solvent form disordered SAMs, whereas they form well-ordered SAMs showing a c(4 × 2) structure in a catalytic TBACN solution. XPS and CV measurements also revealed that OTA SAMs on Au(111) formed in a TBACN solution have a stronger chemisorbed peak in the S 2p region at 162 eV and a higher blocking effect compared to OTA SAMs formed in a pure solvent. In this study, we clearly demonstrate that TBACN can be used as an effective deprotecting reagent for obtaining well-ordered SAMs of thioacetyl-protected molecules on gold.

ZnO nanorods were grown on $SiO_2$ coated Si wafers and glass by the hydrothermal method. The structural and optical properties variation of ZnO nanorods as a function of growing time was studied. ~10 nm-thick ZnO thin films deposited on substrates by rf magnetron sputtering were employed as seed layers. Zinc nitrate hexahydrate (0.05 M) and hexamethylenetetramine (0.05 M) mixed in DI water were used as a reaction solution. ZnO nanorods were respectively grown for 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, and 4 h by maintaining the reactor at $90^{\circ}C$. Crystallinity of ZnO nanorods was analyzed by X-ray diffraction, and the morphology of nanorods was observed by a field emission scanning electron microscope. Transmittance and absorbance were measured by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and energy band gap and urbach energy were obtained from the data. Photoluminescence measurements were carried out using Nd-Yag laser (266 nm).

Polyurethane elastomers (PUEs) were synthesized using trans-1,4-bis(isocyanatomethyl) cyclohexane (1,4-H₆XDI), poly(oxytetramethylene) glycol, 1,4-butanediol (BD), and 1,1,1-trimethylol propane (TMP). To control the molecular aggregation state and mechanical properties of these PUEs, hard segment contents of 20 and 30 wt% and BD/TMP ratios of 10/0 and 8/2 were chosen. Differential scanning calorimetry and small-angle X-ray scattering measurements revealed that the degree of microphase separation increased with an increase in both hard segment content and BD ratio. The Young's modulus and strain at break of the 1,4-H₆XDI-based PUE were 6-20 MPa and 5-15, respectively. Incorporation of 20% TMP as a cross-linking agent into BD increased the melting temperature of the hard segment chains, that is, heat resistance, and decreased the Young's modulus. This could be due to the low density of the physical cross-linking network and the dispersion of hard segment chains in the soft segment matrix in the PUE in the presence of 20% TMP.

We propose a new variant of lateral shearing interferometer with a tunable laser source that enables 3D surface profile measurements of freeform optics with high speed, high vertical resolution, large departure, and large field-of-view. We have verified the proposed technique by comparing our measurement result with that of an existing technique and measuring a representative sample of freeform optics. Moreover, we propose a new algorithm that is able to compensate the rotational inaccuracy.

The passive microwave remote sensing has progressed considerably in recent years. Important earth surface parameters are detected and monitored by airborne and space born radiometers. However the spatial resolution of real aperture measurements is constrained by the antenna aperture size available on orbiting platforms and on the ground. The inverse problem technique is researched in order to improve the spatial resolution of microwave scanning radiometer. We solve a two-dimensional (surface) temperature-imaging problem with a major intention to develop high-resolution methods. In this paper, the scenario for estimation of both radiometer point spread function (PSF) and target configuration is explained. The PSF of the radiometer is assumed to be unknown and estimated from the observations. The configuration and brightness temperature of targets are also estimated. To do this, we deal with the parametric modeling of observation scenario. The performance of developed algorithms is illustrated on two-dimensional experimental data obtained by the water vapor radiometer.

Powder type Ag system insert metals were manufactured by ball milling process. The variables of milling process such as milling media, revolution speed and powder/ball weight ratio were constant except the milling time. The milling times were selected for 24, 48 and 72 hours. The insert metals made by milling process were evaluated by performing scanning electron microscope, x-ray and DSC(differential scanning calorimetry) analysis, and further in terms of wettability test. The selected insert metals that have the good characteristics compared to commercial insert metals were applied to make the brazed joints of the steel/steel and the steel/WC superhard particles. The characterizations of those brazed joints were also conducted by microstructural observations, shear tensile tests and microhardness measurements. The results indicated that milling time of 48 hours for making powder type insert metals was the best condition showing the small amount of oxides residue, low wetting angle and stable microstructure. The brazed joints that applied the 48 hours milled insert metal were very sound condition indicating the shear tensile value of $2.29{\times}102$ MPa and the microhardness of 138VHN. Further, the amount of the porosity was appeared to be lower than that of the commercial insert metals.
