In this paper, joints of Cu-1Cr-0.1Zr alloy to STS316L were performed by friction welding method. Particularly, Cu-1Cr-0.1Zr alloy is attractive candidate as nuclear power plant material and exibit the best combination of high strength and good electrical and thermal conductivity of any copper alloy examined. The stainless steel is a structural material while copper alloy acts as a heat sink material for the surface heat flux in the first wall. So, in this paper, not only the development of optimizing of friction welding with more reliability and more applicability but also the development of in-process real-time weld quality (such as strength and toughness) evaluation technique by acoustic emission for friction welding of such nuclear reactor component of Cu-1Cr-0.1Zr alloy to STS316L steel sere performed.

Improvement of heat sink technology related to the continuous implementation performance and extension of device-life in circumstance of easy heating and more compact space has been becoming more important issue as multi-functional integration and miniaturization trend of electronic gadgets and products has been generalized. In this study, it purposed to minimize of decline of the heat diffusivity by gluing polymer through compounding of inorganic particles which have thermal conductive properties. We used NH-9300 as base resin and used inorganic fillers such as silicon carbide(SiC), aluminum nitride(AlN), and boron nitride(BN) to improve heat diffusivity. After making film which was made from 100 part of acrylic resin mixed hardener(1.0 part more or less) with inorganic particles. The film was matured at $80^{\circ}C$ for 24h. Diffusivity were tested according to sorts of particles and density of particles as well as size and structure of particle to improve the effect of heat sink in view of morphology assessing diffusivity by LFA(Netzsch/LFA 447 Nano Flash) and adhesion strength by UTM(Universal Testing Machine). The correlation between diffusivity of pure inorganic particles and composite as well as the relation between density and morphology of inorganic particles has been studied. The study related morphology showed that globular type had superior diffusivity at low density of 25% but on the contarary globular type was inferior to non-globular type at high density of 80%.

This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of early defoliation on photosynthesis and carbohydrate reserves when the source leaves of 'Fuji'/M9 apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) trees were removed during the growing period. Bud regrowth rates of 80%, 50% defoliation and non-defoliation treatments were significantly different 82.7%, 45.9% and 2.1% respectively at 30 days after treatment. In all treatments, sucrose and starch concentrations in remaining leaves decreased non-significantly during the 14-day period. No significant changes were observed for total soluble carbohydrates in non-defoliation and 50% defoliation. However, in 80% defoliated treatments, concentrations of sorbitol and total soluble carbohydrates in remaining leaves declined steadily during the 14-day period. It is thought that high sink strength increases the requirements of carbohydrate from remaining leaves more than non-defoliated. The concentrations of starch in the roots tend to decrease non-significantly as percentage of defoliation increased. Photosynthesis of remaining leaves was monitored during the 14-day period after partial defoliation treatments. Net photosynthetic rates (Pn) and stomatal conductance were significantly enhanced in the 80% defoliation. The observed photosynthetic enhancement following partial defoliation may have been due to the enhancement of osmotic potential in leaves. These results were estimated that increasing of photosynthetic rate in the partial defoliation is due to the sink carbohydrate requirements for the current year's secondary growth of buds.

ZigBee is a standard for wireless personal area networks(WPANs) based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. It has been developed for low cost and low power consumption. There are two alternative routing schemes that have been proposed for the ZigBee standard: Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector(AODV) and tree routing. The tree routing forwards packets from sensors to a sink node based on the parent-child relationships established by the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC topology formation procedure. In order to join the network, a sensor node chooses an existing node with the strongest RSSI(Received signal strength indicator) signal as a parent node. Therefore, some nodes carry a large amount of traffic load and exhaust their energy rapidly. To overcome this problem, we introduce a new metric based on link quality and traffic load for load balancing. Instead of the strength of RSSI, the proposed scheme uses the new metric to choose a parent node during the topology formation procedure. Extensive simulation results using TOSSIM(TinyOS mote SIMulator) show that the CFR scheme outperforms well in comparison to the conventional tree routing scheme.

Congestion management is one of the technical challenges in power system deregulation. This paper presents single objective and multi-objective optimization approaches for optimal choice, location and size of Static Var Compensators (SVC) and Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitors (TCSC) in deregulated power system to improve branch loading (minimize congestion), improve voltage stability and reduce line losses. Though FACTS controllers offer many advantages, their installation cost is very high. Hence Independent System Operator (ISO) has to locate them optimally to satisfy a desired objective. This paper presents optimal location of FACTS controllers considering branch loading (BL), voltage stability (VS) and loss minimization (LM) as objectives at once using GA. It is observed that the locations that are most favorable with respect to one objective are not suitable locations with respect to other two objectives. Later these competing objectives are optimized simultaneously considering two and three objectives at a time using multi-objective Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithms (SPEA). The developed algorithms are tested on IEEE 30 bus system. Various cases like i) uniform line loading ii) line outage iii) bilateral and multilateral transactions between source and sink nodes have been considered to create congestion in the system. The developed algorithms show effective locations for all the cases considered for both single and multiobjective optimization studies.

Most of existing routing methods in wireless sensor networks to counter the local eavesdropping-based packet-tracing deal with a single asset and suffer from the packet-delivery latency as they prefer to take a separate path of many hops for each packet being sent. Recently, the author proposed a routing method, GSLP-w(GPSR-based Source-Location Privacy with crew size w), that enhances location privacy of the packet-originating node(i.e., active source) in the presence of multiple assets, yet taking a path of not too long. In this paper, we present a refined routing(i.e., next-hop selection) procedure of it and empirically study privacy strength and delivery latency with varying the crew size w(i.e., the number of packets being sent per path). It turns out that GSLP-w offers the best privacy strength when the number of packets being sent per path is randomly chosen from the range [$1,h_{s-b}/4$] and that further improvements on the privacy are achieved by increasing the random walk length TTLrw or the probability prw that goes into random walk(where, $h_{s-b}$ is the number of hops of the shortest path between packet-originating node s and sink b).

Copper is a well know material for use as heat sink or heat exchanger. However, copper has a considerable low tensile strength and temperature limit. A material that has a good thermal conductivity, low cost, but also excellent mechanical properties are desired. In order to identify the mechanism for the material properties of cast Cu-Fe alloys, $Cu_{50}-Fe_{50}$ (wt.%) alloy was produced by using a high-frequency induction furnace, a typical metal casting process. The Cu-Fe alloy consists of Cu, ${\alpha}$-Fe, ${\gamma}$-Fe with dendrite structures. The crystal structure and microstructure of the prepared $Cu_{50}-Fe_{50}$ alloy were systematically examined using XRD, FE-SEM, EDS and XRF for electrical devices.

In this study the unsteady aerodynamic analysis of a hovering helicopter rotor is performed. For the accurate flow field analysis Euler equations and the free wake method are coupled. The Euler equations are solved to find the pressure distribution around the rotor, and free wake method is used to give the boundary condition for the solution of Euler equations. Also, vortex strength and wake motion after the rotor are simulated by the free wake method. The accuracy of the present method is compared with the source sink model. The present method is applied to the hovering Caradonna-Tung rotor and compared with experimental results.

Numerical calculation of the flow field past a passenger car was carried out by using a panel method with a small computer of 5Mbyte memory size. The shape of car body was simplified and reconstructed by 2180 panels on which a constant strength sink (or source) was distributed. The separation of flow from the surface and the wake flow were not considered in the calculation because of the computer memory limitation. All of the results of calculation were presented by using a 3-dimensional computer graphics. In spite of small memory size of computer, generally good agreements were obtained, except the separated region, from the comparison of pressure distribution between numerical analysis and wind tunnel experiment with 1/5 scaled model.

As the high speed and high integration of semiconductor devices and the generation of heat increases resulted in the effective heat dissipation influences on the performance and lifetime of semiconductor devices. The heat resistance or heat spread function of EMC(epoxy molding compound) which protects these devices became one of very important factors in the evaluation of semiconductor chips. Recently, silica, alumina, AlN(aluminum nitride) powders are widely used as the fillers of EMC. The filler loading in encapsulants was high up to about 80 vol%. A high loading of filler was improved low water absorption, low stress, high strength, better flowability and high thermal conductivity. In this study, the thermal properties were investigated through thermal, mechanical and microstructure. Thermophysical properties were investigated by laser flash and differential scanning calorimeter(DSC). For detailed inspection of materials, the samples were examined by SEM.
