The ac plasma display panel(PDP) is a flat light-emitting gas discharge device. Discharge gases directly take effects to the discharge phenomena of ac PDP. Therefore it is necessary to understand the characteristics of the discharge gases. In this paper, we have studied the effects of discharge gases by voltage transfer curves which show the discharge characteristics of ac PDP and the change of the effective wall capacitance during a discharge which depends on lateral spreading of charge distribution and the strength of discharge. As gas pressure increases, memory margins increases. and the firing voltage of a mixed gas is lower than that of a single gas such as He gas. The minimum sustain voltage and the maximum sustain voltage or firing voltage increases with decrease in the frequency. The effective wall capacitance increases as the discharge strength that is, the gap voltage between discharge electrodes increases.

Several models for the evaluation of Gross Heat Release from the internel combustion engine (ICE) are often used in literature. One of these is the First Law - Single Zone Model (FL-SZM), derived from the First Law of Thermodynamic. This model present a twice advantage: first it describes with accuracy the physic of the phenomenon (charge heat release during the combustion stroke and heat exchange between gas and cylinder wall); second it hat a great simplicity in the mathematical formulation. The evaluation of Heat Release with the FL-SZM is based on pressure experimental measurements inside the cylinder, and ell the assumption of several parameters as the specific heat ratio, wall temperature, polytropic exponent for the motored cycle evaluation, and many others. In this paper the influence of gases thermodynamic properties on Cross Heat Release has been esteemed. In particular the influence of an appropriate equation for k=k(T) (specific heat ratio vs. temperature) which describes the variations of gases thermodynamic properties with the mean temperature inside the cylinder has been evaluated. This equation has been calculated by new V order Logarithmic Polynomials (VoLP), fitting experimental gases properties through the least square methods.

Heavy metal-tolerant microorganisms, such as Pseudomonas putida, P. aeruginosa, P. chlororaphis and P. stutzeri which possessed the ability to accumulate cadmium, lead, zinc and copper, respectively, were isolated from industrial wastewaters and mine wastewaters polluted with various heavy metals. The binding sites of heavy metal in the cells were investigated by chemical modification of functional groups the cell walls. To determine the binding sites of heavy metal in the cells, electrochemical charge of amine and carboxyl groups in the cell walls of heavy metal-tolerant microorganisms were chemically modified. Chemical modifications of amine groups did not affect the heavy metal uptake as compared to native cell walls. In contrast, modifications of carboxyl groups drastically decreased heavy metal uptake as compared to native cell walls, and electron microscopy confirmed that the form and structure of the heavy metal uptake were different from those of native cell walls. The results suggested that the carboxyl groups were the major sites of heavy metal uptake in the heavy metal-tolerant microorganism cell.

This study considers the proper repair techniques by examining the most representative repair cases of the Korean arch bridges and proposes the constructional manual which can apply similar occasions. The cases are Seonamsa Seungseongyo and Songgwangsa Geukrockgyo where this researcher had taken part in the repair works. This Study proposes the maintenance construction manual about the performance degradation drew by performance degradation of the both Korean arch bridges in the maintenance process. First, arch bridge maintenance should be carried out in the dry season, when water is impermeable in the bottom surface of the bridge. Moreover, risk factors of the maintenance should be excluded to secure the water vally flow, the bypass and the temporary bridge. Second, prior to repair, it has to precede (1)3D shooting (2)formal examination (3)structure safety test (4)geological and lithic surveys (5)arch curvature establishment and makeshift frame settlement before transformation (6)relationship expert comments. Third, if the baduk and the foundation stones are inevitable to replace due to performance degradation on the foundation, it should use the high quality stones and secure greater stress by extending the standard range. The foundation on irregular rock needs to be flattened and underside on the replaced materials require Grengyijil to deliver the equal loads. Fourth, In the process of dismantling the stones of the arched bridge, it could make heavy weathering degree and not reuse the materials. Charge should converge the expert advices to choose the reuseable, the conservate and the alternative materials, and increase the reutilization of the raw materials by preservation and reinforcement treatments. Fifth, the side wall should be repaired by the rubble work technique which is not able to pile compost satiety, so it must use long depth of masonary stones for reinforcement. It is considered to reinforce the stone wall in shore as much as possible and protect the abutment and the side wall on the upstream for the arch bridge maintenance works.

In this study, a mathematical model for a thermal analysis of a flat heat pipe with a grooved wick structure is presented. The effects of the liquid-vapor interfacial shear stress, the contact angle, and the amount of liquid charge have been included in the proposed model. In particular, the axial variations of the wall temperature and the evaporation/condensation rates are considered by solving the one-dimensional conduction and the augmented Young-Laplace equations, respectively. In order to verify the model, the results obtained from the model are compared to existing experimental data.

New address electrode having separated dual electrode is suggested to reduce addressing time in ac PDP. Addressing characteristics of suggested electrode has been investigated in the test panel with high Xe partial pressure. It has been found that both the formative and jitter width of the suggested electrode is improved by 10 -20 % over the wide range of address voltage level compared with the conventional one. The dynamic margin of the panel also greatly improved. The key feature behind this type of structure is that it can extend the controllability of the wall charge distribution during the reset and address discharge without significant increase in capacitive load of address electrode.

The unique effects of highly conductive conducting polymer/SWNT (single walled carbon nanotube) composite nanoparticles in electric double layer capacitors are studied for the enhancement of the adhesive properties, specific capacitance and power characteristics of the electrode. Because the conducting polymer/SWNT composite material, which is believed to act as a polymer binder, an active material for charge storage and a conducting agent, is well distributed on the activated carbon, greatly enhanced adhesion properties, cell capacitance and power characteristics were obtained.

It has been recognized that alternative fuels such as Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) show less polluting combustion characteristics than diesel fuel. Furthermore, engine performance is expected to be nearly equal to that of the diesel engine if direct-injection stratified-charge combustion of the LPG can be adopted in the spark-ignition engine. However, spray characteristics of LPG are quite different from those of diesel fuel. understanding the spray characteristics of LPG and evaporating processes are very important for developing efficient and low emission LPG engines optimized in fuel injection control and combustion processes. In this study, the LPG spray characteristics and evaporating processes were investigated using the Schlieren and Mie scattering optical system and single-hole injectors in a constant volume chamber. The results show that the mixture moves along the impingement wall that reproduced the piston bowl and reaches in ignition spark plug. LPG spray receives more influence of ambient pressure and temperature significantly than that of n-dodecane spray.

In this work, we measured the spatiotemporal surface charge distribution by the longitudinal electro-optic amplitude modulation method with BSO single crystal to investigate the decay and diffusion characteristics of surface charges in three types of MgO. The speed of decay and diffusion of two different kinds doped MgO is compared with those of pure MgO. The difference in the characteristics of the decay and diffusion between the electron and ion surface charges is investigated separately. We found that the rate of ion decay is the major factor that makes the difference of the temporal variation of wall voltage among different types doped MgO.

Controlling carrier transport in light emitting polymers is extremely important for their efficient use in organic opto-electronic devices [1]. Here we show that the interactions between single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and conjugated polymers can be used to modify the overall mobility of charge carriers within nanotube-polymer nanocomposites. By using a unique, double emitting-organic light emitting diodes (DE-OLEDs) structure. we have characterized the hole transport within electroluminescent nanocomposites (nanotubes in poly (m-phenylene vinylene-co-2,5-dioctoxy-p-phenylene) or PmPV). We have shown using this idea that single devices with color tunability can be fabricated. It is seen that SWNTs in PmPV are responsible for hole trapping, leading to shifts in the emission wavelengths. Our results could lead to improved organic optical amplifiers, semiconducting devices, and displays.
