The present study investigates heat/mass transfer and flow characteristics in a ribbed rotating passage with turning region. The duct has an aspect ratio (W/H) of 0.5 and a hydraulic diameter ($D_h$) of 26.67 mm. Rib turbulators are attached in the parallel arrangement on the leading and trailing surfaces of the passage. The ribs have a rectangular cross section of 2 m (e) $\times$ 3 m (w) and an attack angle of $70^{\circ}$. The pitch-to-rib height ratio (p/e) is 7.5, and the rib height-to-hydraulic diameter ratio (e/$D_h$) is 0.075. The rotation number ranges from 0.0 to 0.20 while the Reynolds number is constant at 10,000. To verify the heat/mass transfer augmentation, internal flow structures are calculated for the same conditions using a commercial code FLUENT 6.1. The results show that a pair of vortex cells are generated due to the symmetric geometry of the rib arrangement, and heat/mass transfer is augmented up to $Sh/Sh_0=2.9$ averagely, which is higher than that of the cross-ribbed case presented in the previous study for the stationary case. With the passage rotation, the main flow in the first-pass deflects toward the trailing surface and the heat transfer is enhanced on the trailing surface. In the second-pass, the flow enlarges the vortex cell close to the leading surface, and the small vortex cell on the trailing surface side contracts to disappear as the passage rotates faster. At the highest rotation number ($R_O=0.20$), the turn-induced single vortex cell becomes identical regardless of the rib configuration so that similar local heat/mass transfer distributions are observed in the fuming region for the cross- and parallel-ribbed case.

Background Numerous techniques have been used to achieve long-term projection of the nipple following nipple-areola reconstruction. However, the reconstructed nipple loses projection over time. We describe a technique that uses local flaps to improve the lost projection of reconstructed nipples. Methods Between November 2013 and March 2015, nine patients (11 nipples) underwent revisional nipple reconstruction for lost projection. Only C-H nipple reconstructions were included in this study. The medical history of each patient was reviewed and photographs were taken in front and lateral views. All patients attended routine follow-up visits. Deepithelialized triangular flaps were made on all four sides of the nipple and buried in the opposite corners in order to augment the volume of the nipple. Anchoring sutures were used to attach each triangular flap on the side opposite their point of origin, and the resulting defects were closed directly. Results This procedure was used successfully in nine patients (11 nipples). Adequate projection was achieved in all patients and no complications occurred. The average nipple height was 3 mm before operation, 7 mm one day after operation, 5 mm at the six-month follow-up, and 5 mm at the 12-month follow-up. The average nipple-areolar angle was $164^{\circ}$ before the operation, $111^{\circ}$ one day after the operation, $130^{\circ}$ at the six-month follow-up, and $133^{\circ}$ at the 12-month follow-up. Conclusions The method described provides a solution to the loss of projection in reconstructed nipples. We recommend this technique because it leads to better projection, greater volume, and a more natural shape.

This study experimentally investigates hydrophobic surfaces fabricated via additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing, is the process of joining materials to fabricate parts from 3D model data, usually in a layer-upon-layer manner. Digital light processing is used to fabricate hydrophobic surfaces in this study. This method uses photo-curable resins and ultraviolet (UV) sources. Moreover, this technique generally has faster shaping speeds and is advantageous for the fabrication of small components because it enables the fabrication of one layer at a time. Two photo-curable resins with different compositions are used to fabricate micro-patterns of hydrophobic surfaces. The resins are composed of a photo-initiator, monomer, and oligomer. Experiments are conducted to determine suitable process conditions for the fabrication of hydrophobic surfaces depending on the type of resin. The most important factors affecting the process conditions are the UV exposure time and slice thickness. The fabrication capability according to the process conditions is evaluated using the side and top views of the micro-patterns observed using a microscope. The micro-patterns are collapsed and intertwined when the exposure time is short because sufficient light (heat) is not applied to cure the photo-curable resin with a given slice thickness. On the other hand, the micro-patterns are attached to each other when the exposure time is prolonged because the over-curing time can cure the periphery of a given shape. When the slice is thicker, the additional curing area is enlarged in each slice owing to the straightness of UV light, and the slice surface becomes rough.

해양조사선 온누리호에 장착되어 있는 슬리브건 배열의 특성을 분석하였으며, 탐사 자료와 비교하였다. 주파수 영역엣 빔폭의 변화는 송이 배열인 경우, 814Hz가지는 $179.5^{\circ}$로 일정하며 814-1631Hz 주파수 범위에서는 급격히 빔폭이 좁아진다. 반면에 길이 및 폭배열인 경우, 고주파수대로 갈수록 빔폭이 좁아지며 이때의 최적 주파수는 69Hz이다. 수직면 방향성에서 주엽은 위상 각도 $0^{\circ}$에서 최대 진폭 0dB를 나타낸다. 부엽이 생성되지 않는 최적주파수 범위는 송이배열인 경우 1631Hz 미만이며, 길이 및 폭배열인 경우 108Hz 미만이다. 따라서 송이배열은 천부 지층의 고분해능 탐사에 적합하며, 길이 및 폭배열은 저주파수대 심부지질구조 탐사에 적합함을 나타낸다. 송이배열을 이용한 탄성파 단면도를 동일 측선에서 폭배열을 이용하여 획득한 탄성파 단면도와 비교하였다.

Film cooling characteristics has been examined numerically for the height variation of a stepped slot exit. In this study, the upstream wall height of the stepped slot exit varies from -2d (d = slot width) to 3d, blowing ratio ranges from 0.5 to 3, and injection angles are $15^{\circ},\;30^{\circ},\;and\;45^{\circ}$. The results showed that film cooling performance was mainly subjected to the magnitude of recirculation region near the downstream-side slot exit as well as the magnitude and the distribution region of turbulent kinetic energy due to the local velocity and momentum differences between the coolant and the main flow near the slot exit. The up-1d type slot at higher blowing ratios over 2 and the flat type slot at lower blowing ratios below 1 have the best film cooling performances, in case of the injection angles of $30^{\circ},\;and\;45^{\circ}$, respectively. Compared with the other injection angles, in case of the injection angles of $15^{\circ}$, the best film cooling performances was shown in even a higher upstream wall (up-3d) at higher blowing ratio like 3 by the gradual reduction of the coolant velocity which minimizes the local velocity differences between the coolant and the main flow near the slot exit.

GIDL(Gate-Induced Drain-Leakage)을 줄일 수 있는 새로운 구조의 ESD(Elevated Source Drain) MOSFET을 제안하고 분석하였다. 제안된 구조는 SDE(Source Drain Extension) 영역이 들려진 형태를 갖고 있어서 SDE 임플란트시 매우 낮은 에너지 이온주입으로 인한 저활성화(low-activation) 효과를 방지 할 수 있다. 제안된 구조는 건식 식각 및 LAT(Large-Angle-Tilted) 이온주입 방법을 사용하여 소오스/드레인 구조를 결정한다. 기존의 LDD MOSFET과의 비교 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 ESD MOSFET은 전류 구동능력은 가장 크면서 GIDL 및 DIBL(Drain Induced Barrier Lowering) 값은 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. GIDL 전류가 감소되는 원인으로는 최대 전계의 위치가 드레인 쪽으로 이동함에 따라 최대 밴드간 터널링이 일어나는 곳에서의 최대 전계값이 감소되기 때문이다.

Silicon-carbon composite was prepared by the magnesiothermic reduction of mesoporous silica and subsequent impregnation with a carbon precursor. This was applied for use as an anode material for high-performance lithium-ion batteries. Well-ordered mesoporous silica(SBA-15) was employed as a starting material for the mesoporous silicon, and sucrose was used as a carbon source. It was found that complete removal of by-products ($Mg_2Si$ and $Mg_2SiO_4$) formed by side reactions of silica and magnesium during the magnesiothermic reduction, was a crucial factor for successful formation of mesoporous silicon. Successful formation of the silicon-carbon composite was well confirmed by appropriate characterization tools (e.g., $N_2$ adsorption-desorption, small-angle X-ray scattering, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analyses). A lithium-ion battery was fabricated using the prepared silicon-carbon composite as the anode, and lithium foil as the counter-electrode. Electrochemical analysis revealed that the silicon-carbon composite showed better cycling stability than graphite, when used as the anode in the lithium-ion battery. This improvement could be due to the fact that carbon efficiently suppressed the change in volume of the silicon material caused by the charge-discharge cycle. This indicates that silicon-carbon composite, prepared via the magnesiothermic reduction and impregnation methods, could be an efficient anode material for lithium ion batteries.

Background: In modern society, the use of computers accounts for a large proportion of our daily lives. Although substantial research is being actively conducted on musculoskeletal diseases resulting from computer use, there has been a recent surge in interest in improving the working environment for prevention. Objects: This study aimed to examine the effects of posture correction feedback (PCF) on changes in neck posture and muscle activation during computer typing. Methods: The participants performed a computer typing task in two sessions, each lasting 16 minutes. The participant's dominant side was photographed and analyzed using ImageJ software to verify neck posture. Surface electromyography (EMG) was used to confirm the participant's cervical erector spinae (CES) and upper trapezius muscle activities. The EMG signal was analyzed using the percentage of reference voluntary contraction and amplitude probability distribution function (APDF). In the second session, visual and auditory feedback for posture correction was provided if the neck was flexed by more than 15° in the initial position during computer typing. A 20-minute rest period was provided between the two sessions. Results: The neck angle (p = 0.014), CES muscle activity (p = 0.008), and APDF (p = 0.015) showed significant differences depending on the presence of the PCF. Furthermore, significant differences were observed regarding the CES muscle activity (p = 0.001) and APDF (p = 0.002) over time. Conclusion: Our study showed that the feedback system can correct poor posture and reduces unnecessary muscle activation during computer work. The improved neck posture and reduced CES muscle activity observed in this study suggest that neck pain can be prevented. Based on these results, we suggest that the PCF system can be used to prevent neck pain.

The laser Doppler technique is well-established as a velocity measurement technique of high precision for flow velocity. Recently, the laser Doppler technique has also been used to measure acceleration of fluid particles. Acceleration is interesting from a fluid mechanics point of view, since the Navier Stokes equations, specifically the left-hand-side, are formulated in terms of fluid acceleration. Further, there are several avenues to estimating the dissipation rate using the acceleration. However such measurements place additional demands on the design of the optical system; in particular fringe non-uniformity must be held below about 0.0001 to avoid systematic errors. Relations expressing fringe divergence as a function of the optical parameters of the system have been given in the literature; however, direct use of these formulae to minimize fringe divergence lead either to very large measurement volumes or to extremely high intersection angles. This dilemma can be resolved by using an off-axis receiving arrangement, in which the measurement volume is truncated by a pinhole in front of the detection plane. In the present study an optical design study is performed for optimizing laser Doppler systems for fluid acceleration measurements. This is followed by laboratory validation using a round free jet and a stagnation flow, two flows in which either fluid acceleration has been previously measured or in which the acceleration is known analytically. A 90 degree off-axis receiving angle is used with a pinhole or a slit.

이 논문에서는 LS/DYNA3D를 이용하여 다음과 같은 2가지 수치 시뮬레이션을 수행한다: 첫 번째 시뮬레이션은 310,000 DWT 이중선체 VLCC (피충돌선)과 35,000 및 105,000 DWT의 2척의 유조선(충돌선)들과의 충돌에 관한 경우로서, 충돌선들은 VLCC의 중심선에 직각으로 중앙부에 충돌하는 것으로 가정한다. 두 번째는 40,000 DWT급의 재래식과 개량식 이중선체 유조선의 선저구조의 2가지 모델, CONV/PD328과 ADH/PD328에 대한 좌초에 관한 시뮬레이션이다. 이 연구의 전체적인 목적은 이중선체 유조선의 선측 및 선저구조에 충돌 및 좌초가 각각 발생하는 동안에 이중선체의 내판이 찢어지기 시작하고 운동에너지가 소산되면서 선체가 정지되는 등의 구조적인 파손 및 흡수에너지의 역학적인 거동을 이해하는 것이다. 이러한 수치 시뮬레이션을 통하여 충돌 및 좌초시의 손상 정도를 쉽게 추정할 수 있을 것이고 유조선의 설계 시 안전도의 개선에 이바지할 수 있게 할 것이다.
