  • This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of mixed and separate gender feeding on the growth performance and carcass traits of Korean native chickens (KNC) compared to white semi-broilers (WSB) and a commercial broiler (CB) from hatching to 35 days. Here, 240 chicks were used with eight birds per cage in a randomized design with six replicates per breed. For the KNC lines, three groups of males (KNC-M), mixed-gender birds (KNC-FM) and females (KNC-F) were used. The two-phase feeding program used here consisted of a starter phase (days 1 - 21: crude protein [CP] 20% and metabolizable energy [ME], 3,050 kcal·kg-1) and a grower phase (days 22 - 35: CP 18%, 3,100 kcal·kg-1) for a commercial broiler. The WSB and CB were fed the only starter commercial diet. Fresh water and feed were provided ad-libitum. The results revealed that the KNC group had a lower (p < 0.05) body weight (BW) from day 7 and day 35 compared to that of the CB. Furthermore, the KNC group showed a lower (p > 0.05) average daily gain (ADG) relative to that of the CB during the entire experimental period. No difference (p > 0.05) was observed in the shank length among the treatments. There were also no significant differences in the growth performance or carcass traits between the KNC-M and WSB groups or in the genders of the KNC group.

  • The pressure is generally lower than that of the freestream at the base of a missile body due to the energy loss by the flow separation around the edge of the base. The base pressure changes in the presence of the thrust jet due to the interaction between the base flow of the missile and the jet flow. In this study, behavior of the missile base pressure by the change of the jet exit pressure and the freestream condition is investigated using the CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. Effects of the grid type and the freestream condition are tested. The results are compared with the semi-empirical predictions and the flight test data. The CFD results agree well with the flight test data. The semi-empirical predictions overestimate the base pressure when jet thrust is strong for low freestream speed.

  • This paper investigates an efficient transmission scheme for the remote wireless sensors to receive information which is rarely discussed in the integrated remote wireless sensor and multibeam satellite networks (IWSMSNs). The networks can be employed to exchange sensing information for emergency scenario, ocean scenario, and so on, which are isolated from available terrestrial networks. As the efficient transmission link is important to the IWSMSNs, we propose a hybrid full frequency (HFF) precoding by taking advantage of frequency reuse and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) precoding. Considering energy efficiency and sinks fairness are crucial to transmission link, thus the HFF precoding problems are formulated as transmit power minimization (TPM) and max-min fair (MMF) received signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) problems, which can be transformed to indefinite quadratic optimization programs. Then this paper presents a semi-definite programming (SDP) algorithm to solve the problems for the IWSMSNs. The promising potential of HFF for the real IWSMSNs is demonstrated through simulations.

  • It is reported that semi-solid forming process takes many advantages over the conventional forming process, such as a long die life, good mechanical properties and energy saves. It is important to predict the deformation behavior for optimization of the forging process with semi-solid materials and to control liquid segregation for mechanical properties of materials. But rheology material has thixotropic, pseudo-plastic and shear-thinning characteristics. So, it is difficult for a numerical simulation of the rheology process to be performed because complicated processes such as the filling to include the state of the free surface and solidification in the phase transformation must be considered. General plastic or fluid dynamic analysis is not suitable for the analysis of the rheology material behavior. Recently, molecular dynamics is used for the behavior analysis of the rheology material and turned out to be suitable among several methods. In this study, molecular dynamics simulation was performed for the control of liquid segregation, forming velocity, and viscosity in compression experiment as a part of study on the analysis of rheology forming process.

  • According to a miniaturization and integration of electric device, a little size of fuse satisfying the current carrying capacity as well as an explosive tolerance and current interrupt rating are required. Fe-Ni alloy is applied to decrease an oxidation of fuse elements. A resistance and T.C.R(temperature coefficient of resistance) of a fuse are analyzed by changing a content of Ni And full rated current I-T curve from 1A to 6.3A has been tested. In order to an explosive energy, a straight wire type is selected to reduce a fuse melting time. An interrupt rating test was conducted by changing a content of Ni and the optimal content of Ni is to be 40%.

  • TBAB (Tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide)는 상압에서 semi-clathrate를 형성하는 물질로서 최근 열역학적 촉진제 및 기체 저장 물질로서 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 가스 하이드레이트 형성 시TBAB가 열역학적 촉진제로서 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 다양한 농도 (5, 10, 40, 60 wt%)의 TBAB를 $CH_4\;+\;H_2O$계, $CO_2\;+\;H_2O$계, $N_2\;+\;H_2O$계에 첨가하여 가스 하이드레이트 3상 평형 (H - LW - V)을 측정 하였다. 실험 결과 TBAB의 조성에 따른 촉진경향은 각 계가 유사하지만, 촉진 정도는 $N_2\;+\;H_2O$ 계가 앞의 두계에 비해 월등히 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, TBAB 농도가 40 wt% 일때 촉진효과가 가장 크게 나타났으며, 그 이상의 농도에서는 반대로 촉진효과가 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 혼합 하이드레이트 형성에 참여하지 못한 TBAB가 가스 하이드레이트 형성을 억제하기 때문으로 사료된다. 결과적으로 가스하이드레이트 공정에 TBAB를 열역학적 촉진제로서 적용할 경우 촉진효과가 가장 큰 40 wt% 범위의 농도로 사용하는 것이 가장 적절할 것으로 사료된다. 본 실험에서 얻어진 결과는 가스 하이드레이트 형성을 이용한 천연가스 수송/저장법을 위한 연구뿐만 아니라 기체 분리 공정 개발과 관련된 연구의 중요한 기초 자료가 될 것이다.

  • Long steel stay cables, which are mainly used in cable-stayed bridges, are easy to vibrate because of their low inherent damping characteristics. A lot of methods for vibration reduction of stay cables have been developed, and several techniques of them have been implemented to real structures, though each has its limitations. Recently, it was reported that smart (i.e. semi-active) dampers can potentially achieve performance levels nearly the same as comparable active devices with few of the detractions. Some numerical and experimental studies on the application of smart damping systems employing an MR fluid damper, which is one of the most promising smart dampers, to a stay cable were carried out; however, most of the previous studies considered only one specific control algorithm in which they are interested. In this study, the performance verification of MR fluid damper-based smart damping systems for mitigating vibration of stay cables by considering the four commonly used semi-active control algorithms, such as the control algorithm based on Lyapunov stability theory, the maximum energy dissipation algorithm, the modulated homogeneous friction algorithm and the clipped-optimal control algorithm, is systematically carried out to find the most appropriate control strategy for the cable-damper system.

  • Effect of boron in GaAs have been investigated by photo induced current transient spectroscopy(PICTS). The starting material was undoped liquid encapsulated Czochralski(LEC) semi insulating GaAs and boron ion implantation at 150keV energy was conducted with dose of 10$\^$12/ and 10$\^$13/ions/cm$\^$2/. In ion implanted samples, the peaks related arsenic vacancy(V$\_$As/) were decreased but complex lattice defect was increased with annealing temperature. U band was observed at ion implanted(10$\^$13/ ions/cm$\^$2/) and thermally treated(550.deg. C) sample. More negative peak was detected after annealing at temperature between 600 and 700.deg. C. The measurement of dark current showed that the formation of B$\_$GA/-V$\_$As/, complex defect and complex lattice defect by ion implantation were a reasonable explanation for the decrease in dark current.

  • Recently, number of smart material are investigated and widely used in civil construction and other industries. Present study investigates the application of smart semi-active piezoelectric friction damper (PFD) made with piezoelectric material for the seismic control of the horizontally curved bridge isolated with lead rubber bearing (LRB). The main aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of hybrid system and to find out the optimum parameters of PFD for seismic control of the curved bridge. The selected curved bridge is a continuous three-span concrete box girder supported on pier and rigid abutment. The PFD is located between the deck and abutments or piers in chord and radial directions. The bridge is excited with four different earthquake ground motions with all three components (i.e. two horizontal and a vertical) having different characteristics. It is observed that the use of semi-active PFD with LRB is quite effective in controlling the response of the curved bridge as compared with passive system. The incorporation of the smart damper requiring small amount of energy in addition with an isolation system can be used for effective control the curved bridge against the dynamic loading.

  • The use of electrical discharge machining (EDM) for micro-machining applications requires particular attention to the machined surface roughness and discharge gap distance, as these factors affect the geometrical accuracy of micro-parts. Previous studies of conventional EDM have shown that selected types of semi-conductive and non-conductive powder suspended in the dielectric reduced the surface roughness while ensuring a limited increase in the gap distance. Based on this, an extension of the technique to micro-EDM was studied Such work is necessary since the introduction of nanopowders suspended in the dielectric is not well understood. The experimental results showed that a statistically significant reduction in the surface roughness value was achieved at particular concentrations of the powder additives, depending on the powder material and the machining input energy setting. The average reduction in surface roughness using a powder suspended dielectric was between 14-24% of the average surface roughness generated using a pure dielectric. Furthermore, when these additive concentrations were used for machining, no adverse increase in the gap distance was observed.
