Cost-effective solutions provided by composite construction are gaining popularity which, in turn, promotes the appearance on the market of new types of composite sections that allow not only to take advantage of the synergy of steel and concrete working together at room temperature, but also to improve their behaviour at high temperatures. When combined with high performance materials, significant load-bearing capacities can be achieved even with reduced cross-sectional dimensions. Steel-reinforced concrete-filled steel tubular (SR-CFST) columns are one of these innovative composite sections, where an open steel profile is embedded into a CFST section. Besides the renowned benefits of these typologies at room temperature, the fire protection offered by the surrounding concrete to the inner steel profile, gives them an enhanced fire performance which delays its loss of mechanical capacity in a fire scenario. The experimental evidence on the fire behaviour of SR-CFST columns is still scarce, particularly when combined with high performance materials. However, it is being much needed for the development of specific design provisions that consider the use of the inner steel profile in CFST columns. In this work, a new experimental program on the thermo-mechanical behaviour of SR-CFST columns is presented to extend the available experimental database. Ten SR-CFST stub columns, with circular and square geometries, combining high strength steel and concrete were tested. It was seen that the circular specimens reached higher failure times than the square columns, with the failure time increasing both when high strength steel was used at the embedded steel profile and high strength concrete was used as infill. Finally, different proposals for the reduction coefficients of high performance materials were assessed in the prediction of the cross-sectional fire resistance of the SR-CFST columns.

In this paper, we provide the results of polishing temperature distribution by way of infrared ray measurement system as well as polishing resistance, which can be interpreted as tribological aspects of CMP, using force measurement system. The results include the trend of polishing temperature, its distribution profile and temperature change during polishing. The results indicate that temperature affects greatly to the removal rate. Polishing temperature increases gradually and reaches steady state temperature and the period of temperature change occurs first tens of seconds. Furthermore, the friction force also varies as the same pattern with polishing temperature from high friction to low. These results suggest that the first period of the whole polishing time greatly affects the nonuniformity of removal rate.

A method to mitigate the thermal stratification flow of a horizontal pipe line is proposed by heating external bottom of the pipe with electrical heat tracing. Unsteady two dimensional model has been used to numerically investigate an effect of the external Denting to the thermally stratified flow. The dimensionless governing equations are solved by using the control volume formulation and SIMPLE algorithm. Temperature distribution, streamline profile and Nusselt numbers of fluids and pipe walls with time are analyzed in case of externally heating condition. no numerical result of this study shows that the maximum dimensionless temperature difference between the hot and the cold sections of pipe inner wall is 0.424 at dimensionless time 1,500 ann the thermal stratification phenomena is disappeared at about dimensionless time 9,000. This result means that external heat tracing can mitigate the thermal stratification phenomena by lessening $\Delta$ $T_{ma}$ about 0.1 and shortening the dimensionless time about 132 in comparison with no external heat tracing.rnal heat tracing.

The textural properties of acorn flour gels were investigated with the variations in the concentraction, storage time and storage temperature by the use of Instron Universal Testing Machine. The experimental design was $3^3$ factorial experiment. TPA curves of acorn flour gels showed two sharp peaks in the first bite and no negative peak. The hardness and brittleness of acorn flour gels were very significantly affected by concentration, storage time and storage temperature. For the height difference between first peak and second peals, the main effects for concentration and storage temperature were very significant and the main effect for storage time was not negligible. For bend, the effect of concentration was more significant than the effect of storage temperature, and storage time effect was negligible. Springiness was affected only by the concentration.

Little information is available for the temporal variation in air temperature profile within rice canopies under development, while much works have been done for a fully developed canopy. Fine wire thermocouples of 0.003 mm diameter (chromel-constantan) were installed at 10 vertical heights by a 10 cm step in a paddy rice field to monitor the air temperatures over and within the developing rice canopy from one month after transplanting (June 29) to just before heading (August 24). According to a preliminary analysis of the data, we found neither the daytime temperature maximum nor the night time minimum at the active radiation surface (the canopy height with maximum leafages) during this period, which is a typical profile of a fully developed canopy. Air temperature within the canopy never exceeded that above the canopy at 1.5 m height during the daytime. Temporal march of the within-canopy profile seemed to be controlled mainly by the ambient temperature above the canopy and the water temperature beneath the canopy, and to some extent by the solar altitude, resulting in alternating isothermal and inversion structures.

The ignition of monomethylamine was studied in reflected shock waves over the temperature range of 1255- 1579 K and the pressure range of 1.04-1.51 bar. The ignition delay time was measured by the sudden increase of pressure profile and the radiation emitted by OH radicals. The relationship between the ignition delay time and the concentrations of monomethylamine and oxygen was determined in the form of mass-action expressions with an Arrhenius temperature dependence. In contrast to the behavior observed in hydrocarbons, monomethylamine acts to accelerate rather than inhibit its own ignition. And numerical modeling of the ignition of $CH_3NH_2$ has also been carried out to test the several kinetic mechanisms.

In order to establish the standard conditions for thermal sterilization of foods, a microcomputer based $F_o-value$ measuring system was developed upon the basis of the time-temperature profile in food. $F_o-value$ was calculated simultaneously from the time-temperature profile, and described as integrated lethality during the whole sterilization process. The accuracy of system was evaluated by the analysis of thermal diffusivity of the model solid food, Alaska pollack surimi. The $F_o-value$ could be measured precisely under the different sterilizing conditions as the varied time and temperature. The practical thermal diffusivities from various sterilizing conditions agreed well to the values predicted by some experimental equations suggested in the literatures. The differences were within the range of $\pm12\%$.

Numerical investigations were conducted to study the convective phenomena of an initially stably stratified salt water solution with lateral heating in a uniformly rotating annulus. The method of investigation is the finite difference analysis of the basic conservation equation for an axisymmetric, unsteady, double-diffusive convection and calculation is made for R $a_{\eta}$=2*10$^{5}$ and Ta=10$^{7}$ ~ 2.5*10$^{8}$ . Formation of layered flow structure, merging process of layers, the corresponding temperature and concentration distributions, Nu variation with time are examined. Numerical results show that in each layer, the temperature profile looks 'S'-shaped and the concentration profile is uniform due to the convective mixing. At the interface between adjacent layers, the temperature changes smoothly but the concentration changes rapidly. As the effect of the rotation increases, the generation of rolls at hot wall, the formation and merging of layers are delayed. The average Nu shows the trend of conduction heat transferees the effect of the rotation increases.n increases.

This study has been prepared for the purpose of developing the system performance prediction method of natural circulation solar hot water system. The storage tank of the natural circulation solar hot water system equipped with flat-plate solar collector is located at higher elevation than the solar collectors. Therefor, the storage tank temperature distribution formed accordance with configuration of storage tank by flow rate of circulating fluid affect system collection efficiency. In this study measure the storage tank temperature distribution with various experimental system under real sun condition and present the theoretical prediction method of the storage tank temperature. Moreover measure the flow rate not only day-time but also night-time reverse flow rate with die injection visual flow meter. Main conclusion obtain from the present study is as follows; 1) The storage tank temperature distribution above the connecting pipe connection position is the same as that of the fully mixed tank and below the connection position is the same as that of stratified tank. 2) The system performance sensitive to the storage tank temperature distribution. Therefore detailed tank model is necessary. Average storage tank temperature can be calculate 3% and storage tank temperature profile can get less than 10% difference with this model system.

The paper represents the effects of the drive-in process parameters on the residual stress profile of the $p^+$ silicon film. Since the residual stress profile is notuniform along the direction normal to the surface, the residual stress is assumed to be a polynomial function of the depth. All the coefficients of the polynomial can be determined by measuring of the thicknesses and the deflections of cantilevers and the deflection of a rotating beam with a surface profiler meter and a microscope. As the drive-in temperature or the drive-in time increases, the boron concentration decreases and the magnitude of the average residual tensile stress decreases. Then, near the surface of the $p^+$ film the residual tensile stress is transformed into the residual compressive stress and its magnitude increases.
