This paper deals with the distribution characteristics of the current density and axial magnetic flux density on the vacuum interrupter with axial magnetic field type using 3 dimension finite element analysis. An axial magnetic field parallel to the current flow in the arc column can improve the current breaking capacity of vacuum interrupter by affecting the arc mode. The axial magnetic flux density on the contact electrode surface is analyzed by inputting external current as a function of the transient time for sine half wave. And it also is analyzed within the gap distance of the contact electrode. The peak value of current but is decreased with the descending current on the contact electrode surface and within the gap distance of the contact electrode. The residual magnetic field is generated on the contact electrode surface and within the gap distance in the instant of zero current, which is due to the influence of eddy currents. The phase shift due to eddy currents, defined as time difference between the maximum value of current and axial magnetic field, is about 1ms in the center point of gap distance.

The steady state of unsaturated soil takes a long time to achieve. The soil seepage behaviours and hydraulic properties depend highly on the wetting/drying rate. It is observed that the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is dependent on the wetting/drying rate, which is known as the dynamic effect. The dynamic effect apparently influences the scanning curves and will substantially affect the seepage behavior. However, the previous models commonly ignore the dynamic effect and cannot quantitatively describe the hysteresis scanning loops under dynamic conditions. In this study, a dynamic hysteresis model for SWCC is proposed considering the dynamic change of contact angle and the moving of the contact line. The drying contact angle under dynamic condition is smaller than that under static condition, while the wetting contact angle under dynamic condition is larger than that under static condition. The dynamic contact angle is expressed as a function of the saturation rate according to the Laplace equation. The model is given by a differential equation, in which the slope of the scanning curve is related to the slope of the boundary curve by means of contact angle. Empirical models can simulate the boundary curves. Given the two boundary curves, the scanning curve can be well predicted. In this model, only two parameters are introduced to describe the dynamic effect. They can be easily obtained from the experiment, which facilitates the calibration of the model. The proposed model is verified by the experimental data recorded in the literature and is proved to be more convenient and effective.

Recently, the traditional call center, which has an important role as the customer's primary contact point, has been transformed into the omni-channel contact center which supports an additional variety of access channels in addition to phone calls in order to improve customer accessibility and convenience. The omni-channel contact center has agents on each channel which are vital in determining the response rate and waiting time for the customer. In traditional call centers, agents can be assigned to a call based on the characteristics of the call, however in omni-channel contact centers, the characteristics of issues vary and come in through multiple channels, each with their own characteristics, making it difficult to assign the appropriate agent for the issue. Customers must also be processed at the same time, adding an additional layer of complexity to the issue. This paper analyzes and simulates an omni-channel contact center that accommodates email, chat, voice calls and video consultation, and investigates how to optimize the allocation of agents.

Though oral microgranisms were among the first to be observed by humans, the interest in oral microbiology lagged. When it became apparent that the oral microflora did influence systemic disease of the body, interest was aroused in the nature and kinds of the microgranisms. The risk of infection in dental procedures is due to the abundant flora of the mouth. This hazard can be reduced to some extent by the use of a local disinfectant. The present studies were undertaken to evaluate and compare the various disinfectants which are commonly used in clinics and hospitals. The results were as follows. 1. The bactericidal activity of the disinfectants mainly depends upon the kinds of the agents, not upon the kinds of the microorganisms. 2. In H₂O₂(3%), the bactericidal activity was greatly related to the contact time. So, at least 4 minitues of contract time was required to use it as an oral antiseptic. 3. In ethyl alcohol (70%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Streptococcus salivarius surived a little after 15 seconds of contact time, but, no other colony was discovered after more than 15 seconds of contact time in any kins of microorganisms. 4. Merthiolate (0.1%) showed low antibacterial activity, more in Gram-positive organisms and less in Gram-negative organisms. 5. Benzalkonium chloride (0.1%) and povidone-iodine (10%) showed the most excellent results, revealing no surviving organisms only after 14 seconds of contact time.

The surface of polysulfone membranes has been modified using the fluorine chemicals, ITFE (2-iodo-1,1,1-trifluoro-ethane F.W.=209.94) and PFPI (1H,1H-pentafluoro-n-propyl iodide F.W.=259.95), and PFI (1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorohexyl iodide, F.W.=373.99) based on Friedel-Crafts reaction mechanism with varying reaction temperatures, reaction time, and catalysis types. The resulting membranes were characterized through mainly the contact angle measurement and pure water permeability. The smaller reactant shows the larger contact angles. FeBr$_3$ catalyst is more effective than AlCl$_3$. Typically, the PS film treated with ITFE at $25^{\circ}C$ under FeBr$_3$ catalyst showed the contact angle 78.5$^{\circ}C$ which indicated 10% over the value of unreacted PS films. More than 50% of pure water flux 8.0 g/$m^2$hr, reduced at reaction time 10 min relative to the original flux, 3.49 g/$m^2$hr.

Ohmic contact process for the fabrication of GaAs integrated circuits is very important. Specific contact resistivities, assuming Rsm=Rs, were measured after the rapid and the conventional alloying process, respectively. The results show that the characteristics of ohmic contact through the rapid alloying process is much better (Apc=1.3~3.3x10**-7 \ulcorner-(m\ulcorner. This is probably due to intensive and compound energy densities during the rapid alloying process. New analysis method of TLM patterns viz. measurements of normlaized specific contact resistivities are proposed to reduce measurement errors that could occur when measuring the small contact end resistances. The adoption of rapid alloying process for the mass production of GaAs integrated circuits could greatly reduce the total processig time.

Most of mechanical structures are combined of substructures such as beams and/or plates. There are few systems with unibody structures but are many systems with united body structures. Generally the dynamic a nalysis of whole structures is performed under alternation load. In the structure design, the analysis of each bolted joint is more important than others for zero severity. This paper presents the analysis method of contact stress distribution factor in the bolted joint with variable fastening torque on joints in the structure. At first, a static vibration test was performed to find out a nominal stress of bolt jointed plates from the relationship between natural frequency and nominal stress. Then a contact stress was computed at contact point between bolt and plate in the structure. It is believed that the proposed method has promisiong implications for safer design with index of contact stress distribution factor and has merits for cost-down and saving time at the beginning of vehicle development.

In general, hot metal castings contract and molds expand during the cooling step of a casting process. Therefore, it is important to consider both the casting and mold at the same time in a casting process analysis. For a more accurate analysis that includes the contact characteristics, matching each node of the casting and mold in the contact area is recommended. However, it is very difficult to match the nodes of the casting and the mold when generating elements due to the geometric problem of CAD model data. The present study proposes a mesh generation technique that considers mechanical contact between the casting and the mold in a casting analysis (finite element analysis). The technique focuses on the fact that the mold surrounds the casting. After generating the 3D elements for the casting, the surface elements of the casting in contact with the mold are projected inside the mold to create contact elements that coincide with the contact surface of the casting. It was confirmed that high-quality contact element information and a 3D element net can be automatically generated by the method proposed in this study.

We investigated the interfacial properties of fluorocarbon self-assembled monolayers (FC-SAMs) with different alkyl chain lengths. It was found that the substrate characteristics were changed rapidly with the fabrication time and temperature of the SAM. FC-3SAM, which has the shortest alkyl chain in this study, showed a contact angle of $54.1^{\circ}$ when it was fabricated in an electric oven at $60^{\circ}C$ for the first minute. The FC-3SAM showed a contact angle of up to $76.9^{\circ}$ when it was fabricated in an electric oven at the same temperature condition for 180 minutes. FC-10SAM, which has the longest alkyl chain in this study, showed a contact angle of $64.7^{\circ}$ when it was fabricated at a temperature condition of $60^{\circ}C$ for 1 minute, and a contact angle of $98.7^{\circ}C$ at a temperature condition of $60^{\circ}C$ for 180 minutes. It was found that the FC-10SAM shows an increased contact angle and hydrophobic properties due to a well-aligned molecular structure resulting from a strong van der Waals force. In contrast, the FC-3SAM shows a small contact angle due to the intermolecular disorder resulting from a weak van der Waals force. The average roughness of FC-SAMs was investigated using AFM. The surface roughness of FC-SAMs, which verifies the results of contact angle, was confirmed. At a fabrication time of 120 minutes, the FC-10SAM showed an improvement in average roughness by 62% compared to that of FC-3SAM due to its good alignment.
