The demands for reliable particle cloud temperature measurement exist in many process industries and scientific researches. Particle cloud temperature measurements depend on radiation thermometry at two or more color bands. In this study, we developed a sensitive, fast response and compact online infrared two-color probe to measure the temperature of a particle cloud in a phase of two field flow (solid-gas). The probe employs a detector contained two InGaAs photodiodes with different spectral responses in the same optical path, which allowed a compact probe design. The probe was designed to suit temperature measurements in harsh environments with the advantage of durability. The developed two-color probe is capable of detecting particle cloud temperature as low as $300^{\circ}C$, under dynamic conditions.

A momentum type actuator produces force and torque disturbances as well as its designed control torque. These disturbances are ones of the largest disturbance sources inside the spacecraft, which deteriorate the pointing stability of the high precision spacecraft. The measurement and analysis of actuator disturbances are therefore imperative for such a spacecraft, and thus a three dimensional torque measurement table has been developed for that purpose. The data acquired from the measurement table are processed in the frequency domain and displayed in the power spectral density(PSD). Through this process, disturbance model parameters are obtained and used for the attitude stability simulation. The process has been adopted for the disturbance measurement of the reaction wheel, and the validity of measurements and parameter identification procedure is verified.

In this paper we studied the laser-induced crater depth, mass, and emission spectra of laser-ablated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) polymer using the laser-induced plasma spectroscopy (LIPS) technique. This study was performed using a Nd:YAG laser with 100 mJ energy and 7 ns pulse width, focused normal to the surface of the sample. The nanoscale change in ablated depth versus number of laser pulses was studied. By using scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, the crater depth and ablated mass were estimated. The LIPS spectral intensities were observed for major and minor elements with depth. The comparison between the LIPS results and SEM images showed that LIPS could be used to estimate the crater depth, which is of interest for some applications such as thin-film lithography measurements and online measurements of thickness in film deposition techniques.

We report fiber guiding experiments on the Photonic Quantum Ring(PQR) laser diode. In the 1km transmission measurements, we find that the PQR performs much better than the VCSEL. This suggests that the PQR laser is very promising candidate for LAN-range optical data communications. On the other hand, we have also fabricated 8$\times$8 PQR laser arrays and measured spatial decays for free space properties without using any guiding optics, which showed about 1m distance of spectral angle sensing.

The microstructure and magnetic properties of$ Fe_{87}Zr_7Si_4B_2$ nanocrystalline alloys were studied by magnetization measurements and M ssbauer spectrometry over a wide temperature range. Three well resolved spectral components have been found and attributed to bcc-Fe grains (with almost pure iron structure), residual amorphous matrix enriched with solute elements and interfaces formed at the grain-matrix boundaries. It has been shown that, contrary to the expectation, during crystallization the atomic segregation occurs leading to the formation of primary bcc-Fe grains and the partition of Si atoms into the residual amorphous matrix.

A simple analytical procedure using FT-NIR for the rapid determination of individual ingredients was evaluated. Direct measurements were made by reflection using a reflectance accessory, by transmittance using tablet accessory and turn table. FT-NIR spectral data were transformed to the first derivative. Partial Least Square Regression(PLSR) was applied to quantify near-infrared (NIR) spectra of 2 ingredients. These calibration models were cross-validated (leave-one-out approach). The prediction ability of the models was evaluated on ambroxol tablets and compared with the real values in manufacturing procedure. (omitted)

In this paper, an experimental technique using a reference accelerometer has been developed to measure the in-plane vibration intensity of a beam. It has the advantages of shortening measurement time and reducing accelerometer phase error comparing with the cross spectral Intensity measurement technique using an accelerometer array. The distribution of the in-plane vibration Intensity over the beam has been measured. (omitted)

Remote sensing cannot provide a direct measurement of vegetation index (VI) but it can provide a reasonably good estimate of vegetation index, defined as the ratio of satellite bands. The monitoring of vegetation in nearby urban regions is made difficult by the low spatial resolution and temporal resolution image captures. In this study, enhancing spatial resolution method is adapted as to improve a low spatial resolution. Recent studies have successfully estimated normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) using improved resolution method such as from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) onboard EOS Terra satellite. Image enhancing spatial resolution is an important tool in remote sensing, as many Earth observation satellites provide both high-resolution and low-resolution multi-spectral images. Examples of enhancement of a MODIS multi-spectral image and a MODIS NDVI image of Cheongju using a Landsat TM high-resolution multi-spectral image are presented. The results are compared with that of the IHS technique is presented for enhancing spatial resolution of multi-spectral bands using a higher resolution data set. To provide a continuous monitoring capability for NDVI, in situ measurements of NDVI from paddy field was carried out in 2004 for comparison with remotely sensed MODIS data. We compare and discuss NDVI estimates from MODIS sensors and in-situ spectroradiometer data over Ochang plain region. These results indicate that the MODIS NDVI is underestimated by approximately 50%.

Analytical studies were conducted to develop the Spectral-Analysis-of-Surface-Waves (SASW) method for underwater use. For the precise estimation of the in-situ soil stiffness profile from SASW measurements, it is essential to determine economical and reasonable theoretical dispersion curves reflecting various experimental conditions. In this paper, therefore, analytical methods are mainly discussed, which were developed to determine theoretical dispersion curves of surface waves propagated along the soil-water interface. Application of the analytical methods is then illustrated by an example involving estimation of a stiffness profile through a forward modeling process of SASW measurements. Applicabilities of the SASW method as well as the developed analytical methods are evaluated, respectively, from the example.

High-resolution wind measurements at 2.25 m in height were used to investigate the mean and turbulence properties of an extreme thunderstorm wind event in West Texas. These data were combined with single Doppler scans from the Texas Tech University Ka-band mobile Doppler radars systems (TTUKa) to provide meteorological context over the surface measurement stations for portions of the outflow. Several features characteristic of a severe wind event were noted in the radar data, including a bowing portion of the thunderstorm complex and a small circulation on the leading edge. These features were reflected in the surface wind time histories and provided natural separation between various regions of the outflow. These features also contributed to the peak 1-s gust at all measurement stations. The turbulence characteristics of each outflow region were also investigated and compared. Reduced values of running turbulence intensity and elevated values of longitudinal integral scales were noted during the period of peak wind speed. Larger scales of turbulence within the outflow were also suggested via spectral analysis.
