Recent experiments have shown the 'size effects' in micro/nano scale. But the classical plasticity theories can not predict these size dependent deformation behaviors because their constitutive models have no characteristic material length scale. The Mechanism - based Strain Gradient(MSG) plasticity is proposed to analyze the non-uniform deformation behavior in micro/nano scale. The MSG plasticity is a multi-scale analysis connecting macro-scale deformation of the Statistically Stored Dislocation(SSD) and Geometrically Necessary Dislocation(GND) to the meso-scale deformation using the strain gradient. In this research we present a study of nano-indentation by the MSG plasticity. Using W. D. Nix and H. Gao s model, the analytic solution(including depth dependence of hardness) is obtained for the nano indentation , and furthermore it validated by the experiments.

A Small-size axial fan(SSAF) has widely been utilized to circulate a cooling air in a refrigerator, etc. Generally, the aerodynamic performance of SSAF is strongly dependent upon the depth between SSAF and bellmouth, and it includes axial, partially stalled, mostly stalled and radial flow regions according to the flow coefficient. In this study, four kinds of bellmouth depths were considered to analyze the aerodynamic performance of SSAF. As a bellmouth depth increases, a maximum flowrate decreases, but a maximum static pressure increases. Also, stall region includes an inflection point in all aerodynamic performance curves. Finally, a static pressure efficiency shows the maximum value of 37%.

Mechanical behavior in nano-sized structures differs from those in macro sized structures due to surface effect. As the ratio of surface to volume increases, surface effect is not negligible and causes size-dependent mechanical behavior. In order to identify this size effect, atomistic simulations are required; however, it has many limitations because too much computational resource and time are needed. To overcome the restrictions of the atomistic simulations and graft the well-established continuum theories, the continuum model considering surface effect, which is based on the bridging technique between atomistic and continuum simulations, is introduced. Because it reflects the size effect, it is possible to carry out a variety of analysis which is intractable in the atomistic simulations. As a part of the application examples, the homogenization method is applied to micro/nano thin films with porosity and the homogenized elastic coefficients of the nano scale thickness porous films are computed in this paper.

We developed an algorithm to simulate the generation of virtual nanowebs using the Monte Carlo method. To evaluate the pore size of the simulated multi-layered nanoweb, an estimation algorithm was developed using a ghost particle having zero volume and mass. The penetration time of the ghost particle through the virtual nanoweb was dependent on the pore size. By using iterative ghost particle penetrations, we obtained reliable data for the evaluation of the pore size and distribution of the virtual nanowebs. The penetration time increased with increasing number of layers and area ratio, whereas it decreased with increasing fiber diameter. Dimensional analysis showed that the penetration time can be expressed as a function of the fiber diameter, area ratio and number of layers.

Effects of density, inner-stress, and grain size on B-H hysteresis loop properties of Mg-ferrite were investigated. As the sintered bulk density increase, coercive force($H_c$) decreasand squareness ratio increase. Coercive force was very dependent on inner-stress in sintered body, so coercive force increase from 1.95[Oe] to 4.35[Oe] when inner stress present in bulk, however, the squareness ratio was almost not changed Coercive force and squareness ratio were independent on grain size of sintered body which is between 6-11[$\mu\textrm{m}$]

Bovine serum albumin microspheres containing cytarabine were prepared using cross-linking agent, formaldehyde. The shape and the size distribution of them were observed. The shape of them was spherical and the susrface was compact and smooth. The size distribution of them was affected by dispersion forces during emulsfication. The release of cytarabine from albumin microspheres was dependent upon cross-linking time, amount of cross-linking agent and drug/albumin ratio. However, the difference of drug release by the dispersion forces was not great. After release test, the shape of albumin microspheres was nonspherical and the albumin matrix seemed to be a little relaxed. The degradation tests of albumin microspheres by the proteolytic enzyme showed that albumin microspheres were progressively digested according to the cross-linking degree.

The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of the learning outcomes of immersive learning technologies in English language teaching (ELT). This study examined 12 articles, yielding a total of 20 effect sizes. The Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) program was employed for data analysis. The findings revealed that the overall effect size was 0.84, implying a large effect size. Additionally, the mean effect sizes of the dependent variables revealed a large effect size for both the cognitive and affective domains. Furthermore, the study analyzed the impact of moderator variables such as sample scale, technology type, tool type, work type, program type, duration (sessions), the degree of immersion, instructional technique, and augmented reality (AR) type. Among the moderators, the degree of immersion was found to be statistically significant. In conclusion, the study results suggested that immersive learning technologies had a positive impact on learning in ELT.

The purpose of this research was to analyze the effects of smart learning. By using meta analysis method, twenty MA and Ph.D degree papers published from 2006 to 2013 were analyzed and 104 effect sizes were calculated. Followings were the results of the research: (a) Smart learning turned out to be more statistically effective comparing to traditional education. The total mean effect size was .886 and the value of U3 was 66.53%. (b) All effect size of sub dependent variables(ie, academic achievement, learning satisfaction, learning attitude) were also effective by adapting smart learning. (c) The moderated variables likes learner characteristics, learning content, and interaction had high effect sizes. Operation system variable had a low effect size but it was not significant.

Localized shear band is investigated through the analysis of one-dimensional model for simple shearing deformation of thermally rate dependent material. Generally mesh size or interval of nodes play an important role in determining the overall flow behavior of the material. In order to observe these size effects we adapted non-local theory by including higher order strain gradients of the equivalent strain into the constitutive equation for the flow stress. for the ease of convergence and numerical stability the inplicit finite difference scheme is employed.

An enhanced continuum model for the size dependent strengthening of particle reinforced composites is presented. The model accounts explicitly for the enhanced strength in a discretely defined "punched zone" around the particle in a metal matrix composite as a result of geometrically necessary dislocations developed through a CTE mismatch. The size of the punched zone presents an intrinsic length scale, and this results in the size dependence of the overall behavior of the composite. Results show that predicted 0.2% offset yield stresses are increasing with smaller inclusions and larger volume fractions and this length-scale effect on the enhanced strength can be observed by explicitly including GND region around the particle.
