The tribiological characteristics such as friction coefficient, friction stability, wear rate and braking temperature between various types of metallic friction materials and heat resistant steel disk, were investigated by using lab-scale dynamometer. Friction materials for high speed train have higher friction coefficient and friction stability as compared to aircraft friction materials even though friction materials for high speed train have lower wear rate. In addition. Cu-matrix friction materials have higher temperature increase rate than Fe-matrix friction materials. All friction surfaces have Fe-base oxide layer after completing test.

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are conducted to investigate the thermophysical characteristics and the stability of liquid threads for various conditions. A cylindrical thread in the simulation domain is made of Lennard-Jones molecules. The surface tension of liquid threads can be determined from local densities, local normal and transverse components of the pressure force. In order to understand the effects of thread radii on surface tensions, the Tolman equation is modified on the basis of the cylindrical coordinates for prediction of surface tensions. Surface tensions calculated from the MD simulation agree with the prediction from the modified Tolman equation. In addition, surface tensions decrease linearly with increasing system temperature. For a binary system, the surface tension decreased linearly compared to that for a pure system with increasing binary ratio of solute molecules which have relatively large value of the affinity coefficient. For a fixed binary ratio, the surface tension increased slightly with the affinity coefficient and the maximum value appear around where the affinity coefficient is 1.5 and decreased rapidly for upper value of 1.5. In addition, the critical wavelengths of perturbations are proven to be directly proportional to the equimolar dividing radii of the liquid threads.

To investigate the mechanism of friction-induced vibration and noise of ship water lubricated stern bearings, a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) nonlinear self-excited vibration model is established. The novelty of this work lies in the detailed analysis of influence of different parameters on the stability and nonlinear vibration characteristics of the system, which provides a theoretical basis for the various friction vibration and noise phenomenon and has a very important directive meaning for low noise design of water lubricated stern bearings. The results reveal that the change of any parameter, such as rotating speed of shaft, contact pressure, friction coefficient, system damping and stiffness, has an important influence on the stability and nonlinear response of the system. The vibration amplitudes of the system increase as (a) rotating speed of shaft, contact pressure, and the ratio of static friction coefficient to dynamic friction coefficient increase and (b) the transmission damping between motor and shaft decreases. The frequency spectrum of the system is modulated by the first mode natural frequency, which is continuous multi-harmonics of the first mode natural frequency. The response of the system presents a quasi-periodic motion.

Closed loop stability of Extended Dynamic Matrix Control (EDMC) is investigated for limited sampling time. Linear approximation of the sensitivity functions is employed in the derivation of the stability condition. It is shown that the closed loop system will be stable if the control moves suppression coefficient ${\lambda}$ is taken arbitrarily large. Special cases such as M=P=1 and M=1, P>1 are discussed in more details.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the financial status of Korean elderly households to make a financial plan for retirement preparation. The sample obtained from 1997 KHPS, consisted of 326 households of 55-64 aged and 210 households of 65 and over aged. Statistics employed for the analysis were frequencies, percentile, univariate analysis and logistic analysis. And Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient were used to compare the financial status. The results could be summarized as follows. First, total income, total expenditure, total debt and net worth of 55-64 aged group were higher than those of 65 and over group, while total asset of 55-64 aged group was similar to 65 and over group's Second, total expediture to total imcome ratio(R1) and total asset to total debt ratio(R4) of 55-64 aged group were higher than 65 and over group's, but net worth to minimum cost of living ratio(R2) and financial asset to monthly expenditure ratio(R3) of 65 and over group were higher than 55-64 aged group's . Third, R4's Gini coefficient was the highest and R1's Gini coefficient was the lowest among all Gini coefficients. Also, R1's and R4's Gini coefficients of 55-64 aged group were greater than 65 and over group's. ourth, variables affecting R1's stability of 55-64 aged group were household head's age, educatonal attainment and family type, while those of 65 and over group were household head's age, past economic experience and the number of children. There was no significant variable affecting R2's stability of 55-64 aged group, but there was only household head's pst economic experience affecting those of 65 and over group. The variable contributing to R3's stability of 55-64 aged group was residence while the variables of 65 and over group were household head's educational attainment, past economic experience and the number of children. The variables contributing to R4's stability of 55-64 aged group were the number of children and residence, and the number of children was one variable of contributing to R4's stability of 65 and over aged group.

Numerical analysis of slop stability is carried out using seismic intensity, modified seismic intensity, and response seismic coefficient methods. It is found by comparing each of method that minimum safety factor precedes the required safety factor. It is also proved during analysis that most conservative method is the earthquake response analysis method, next is the response seismic coefficient method, and last one is the seismic intensity method. Usually, seismic intensity method is applied in analysis of slop stability. However, in view of safety factor, modified seismic intensity method is more conservative than seismic intensity method. Also modified seismic intensity method is appropriate when height of structure analyzed is high enough.

This study presents the centrifugal compressor performance for three different vane stagger angles and wall pressure distribution within vaned diffuser channels, and is also discussed about the stability with respect to the compressor components. As the vane stagger angle decreases, the flow rate for the stall onset decreases, and higher pressure can be obtained at the low flow rate region, however, the effective operation range of the compressor decreases because of the blockage effect of the diffuser vane. Low pressure pocket within the vaned diffuser channel moves from the pressure side of leading edge to the suction side as the flow rate decreases. The compressor system stability mainly depends on that of the diffuser.

Mechanical Brake system is inevitable equipment for stability of train and speed of the train. Especially brake disk and brake pads are core parts of mechanical brake system. It was investigated with tribological characteristics of brake discs for train by using lab-scale dynamometer. Gray cast iron disk was most attacked with sintered brake pad. Alloyed steel disk and NCM cast iron disk had suitable friction coefficient, high stability and low disk attack to the sintered brake pad. But at the view of economy, low alloyed cast iron will be most suitable choice.

This paper presents a new systematic contingency selection, screening and ranking method for on-line transient security assessment. Transient stability of a particular generator is influenced most by fault near it. Fault at the transmission lines adjacent to the generators are selected as contingency. Two screening methods are developed using the sensitivity of modal synchronizing torque coefficient and computing an approximate critical clearing time(CCT) without time simulation. The first method, which considers only synchronizing power, may mislead in some cases since it does not consider the acceleration power. The approximate CCT method, which consider both the acceleration and deceleration power, worked well. Finally the Single Machine Equivalent(SIME) method is implemented using IPLAN of PSS/E for detailed stability analysis.

Temperature stabilities of dielectric constraints and resonant frequencies of the substrates are very important in piezoelectric ceramics oscillators and filters. In this study, it was investigated temperature stability of the length-extensional vibration mode of Pb(Zr$\_$y/Ti$\_$1-y/)O$_3$+x[wt%]Cr$_2$O$_3$ ceramics. The mode can be utilized in fabricating ultra-small 455 kHz IF devices. Addition of Cr$_2$O$_3$ in morphotrophic phase PZT decreased the variations of dielectric constant, electro-mechanical coupling factor k$\_$31/ and resonant frequency by thermal shock. As additive weight of Cr$_2$O$_3$increased, the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency changed from positive number to negative one. And the composition tith temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was shifted to the one with increased Cr$_2$O$_3$ additive weigh by thermal aging.
