In vapor compression systems which use refrigerant as a working fluid, the oil is commonly used for compressor lubrication. Since the presence of lubrication oil can change the characteristics properties of refrigerant, the oil affects the heat transfer performance of heat exchanger to a large extent. In this paper, we focus on the effect of PVE oil experimentally on heat transfer performance of the fin-tube heat exchangers which use R410A as a refrigerant. To evaluate the heat transfer performance, the refrigerant to air type test facility chamber has been used. Fin-tube heat exchanger with grooved has been tested while according to the oil mass fraction variation from nearly zero to 1.7 wt%. It was found that the low level of oil mass fraction has an obvious effect on heat transfer performance, while the high level seems no significant influence. The influence of the oil mass fraction to heat transfer performance, however, is different between evaporation and condensation.

Multilayer ceramic capacitors(MLCC) were prepared by laminating the layer of composition with dif-ferent Curie temperature to improve temperature coefficient in the Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 binary system. Green sheet was formed by tape casting using Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 and PbTiO3 synthesized with solid state reaction of PBO. Nb2O5 MgO and TiO2. Green sheet with electrode of 70Ag-30Pd was laminated under 300 kg/cm2 at 70$^{\circ}C$ and sintered at 1100$^{\circ}C$ for 2hr. Curie temperatues for MLCC with 10 layers of pure PMN and 0.9PMN-0.1PT were lowered to -22$^{\circ}C$ and 36$^{\circ}C$ respectively. MLCC with 7 layers of PMN and 3 layers of 0.9PMN-0.1PT showed nearly zero temperature coefficient of capacitance in the range of -20∼30$^{\circ}C$ and sum of dissipation factor of each layer.

DC motor has been widely used in industrial applications, because the performance is excellent on the speed and position system. However, when a system has parameter uncertainty, it is very difficult to guarantee its performance. Sliding mode control is robust for parameter uncertainty. However conventional sliding mode control can not have the properties of PID controller because its sliding surface has lower order dynamics than the original system. In this paper the sliding surface design method is proposed by using virtual state for DC motor speed control. Its design is based on the augmented system whose dynamics have one higher order than that of the original system. As a result, in spite of the parameter uncertainty, the proposed sliding surface can have the same dynamic of nominal system controlled by PID controller. And the reaching phase is removed by setting an initial state which makes the initial sliding surface equal to zero.

In this paper, using consistent couple stress theory and Hamilton's principle, the free vibration analysis of Euler-Bernoulli nano-beams made of bi-directional functionally graded materials (BDFGMs) with small scale effects are investigated. To the best of the researchers' knowledge, in the literature, there is no study carried out into consistent couple-stress theory for free vibration analysis of BDFGM nanostructures with arbitrary functions. In addition, in order to obtain small scale effects, the consistent couple-stress theory is also applied. These models can degenerate into the classical models if the material length scale parameter is taken to be zero. In this theory, the couple-tensor is skew-symmetric by adopting the skew-symmetric part of the rotation gradients as the curvature tensor. The material properties except Poisson's ratio are assumed to be graded in both axial and thickness directions, which it can vary according to an arbitrary function. The governing equations are obtained using the concept of Hamilton principle. Generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) is used to solve the governing equations for various boundary conditions to obtain the natural frequencies of BDFG nano-beam. At the end, some numerical results are presented to study the effects of material length scale parameter, and inhomogeneity constant on natural frequency.

Nonlinear models, capable of taking into account all the phenomena involved in the cracking and in the failure of lightly reinforced concrete beams, are nowadays available for a rigorous calculation of the minimum reinforcement. To simplify the current approaches, a new procedure is proposed in this paper. Specifically, the ductility index, which is lower than zero for under-reinforced concrete beams in bending, is introduced. The results of a general model, as well as the data measured in several tests, reveal the existence of two linear relationships between ductility index, crack width, and the amount of steel reinforcement. The above relationships can be applied to a wide range of lightly reinforced concrete beams, regardless of the geometrical dimensions and of the mechanical properties of materials. Accordingly, if only a few tests are combined with this linear relationships, a new design-by-testing procedure can be used to calculate the minimum reinforcement, which guarantees both the control of cracking in service and the ductility at failure.

Concrete technologists have used ultrasonic pulse velocity test for decades to evaluate the properties of concrete. However, the presented research work focuses on the use of ultrasonic pulse velocity test to study the degradation in steel-concrete bond subjected to increasing loading. A detailed experimental investigation was conducted by testing five identical beam specimens under increasing loading. The loading was increased from zero till failure in equal increments. From the experimentation, it was found that as the reinforced concrete beams were stressed from control unloaded condition till complete failure, the propagating ultrasonic wave velocity reduced. This reduction in wave velocity is attributed to the initiation, development, and propagation of internal cracking in the concrete surrounding the steel reinforcement. Using both direct and semidirect methods of testing, results of reduction in wave velocity with evidence of internal cracking at steel-concrete interface are presented. From the presented results and discussion, it can be concluded that the UPV test method can be successfully employed to identify zones of poor bonding along the length of reinforced concrete beam. The information gathered by such testing can be used by engineers for localizing repairs thereby leading to saving of time, labor and cost of repairs. Furthermore, the implementation strategy along with real-world challenges associated with the application of the proposed technique and area of future development have also been presented.

The characteristic free representation theory of the general linear group has found a wide range of applications, ranging from the theory of free resolutions to the symmetric function theory. Representation theory is used to facilitate the calculation of explicit free resolutions of large classes of ideals (and modules). Recently, K. Akin and D. A. Buchsbaum [2] realized the Jacobi-Trudi identity for a Schur function as a resolution of GL$_{n}$-modules. Over a field of characteristic zero, it was observed by A. Lascoux [6]. T.Jozefiak and J.Weyman [5] used the Koszul complex to realize a formula of D.E. Littlewood as a resolution of schur modules. This leads us to further study resolutions of Schur modules of a particular form. In this article we will describe some new classes of finite free resolutions associated to the Pieri type skew Young diagrams. As a special case of these finite free resolutions we obtain the generalized Koszul complex constructed in [1]. In section 2 we review some of the basic difinitions and properties of Schur modules that we shall use. In section 3 we describe certain exact complexes associated to the Pieri type skew partitions. Throughout this article, unless otherwise specified, R is a commutative ring with an identity element and a mudule F is a finitely generated free R-module.e.

The $0.96MgTiO_{3}-0.04SrTiO_{3}+xCe(x=0{\sim}1.6wt%)$ ceramics were fabricated by the conventional mixed oxide method. The sintering temperature and time were $1300^{\circ}C$, 2hr., respectively. From the X-ray diffraction patterns, it was found that the perovskite $SrTiO_{3}$ and ilmenite $MgTiO_{3}$ structures were coexisted in the $0.96MgTiO_{3}-0.04SrTiO_{3}+xCe(x=0{\sim}1.6wt%)$ ceramics. The dielectric constant$(\varepsilon_{r})$ was increased with addition of Ce. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency$(\Gamma_{f})$ was gradually varied from positive value to the negative value with increasing the Ce. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of the $0.96MgTiO_{3}-0.04SrTiO_{3}+0.2Ce$ ceramics was near zero, where the dielectric constant, quality factor, and $\Gamma_{f}$ were 20.68, 50,272 and ${-0.5ppm/^{\circ}C}$, respectively.

Manufacturing a multi-layered tablet such as Xatral XL$^{(R)}$ is more complex and expensive than monolayered tablets, but mono-layered tablets may have less favorable release properties depending on the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of the active ingredient. We therefore sought to develop a monolayer tablet with a similar dissolution profile to the commercial alfuzosin sustained-release triple layered tablet (Xatral XL$^{(R)}$). We prepared four different mono-layered alfuzosin tablets with different concentrations of hydroxypropyl methycellulose and PVP K-90. Fomulation III with alfuzosion/mg-stearate/ HPMC/ PVP K-90 (10/5/110/95 mg/tab) has a similar dissolution rate to Xatral XL$^{(R)}$, with a similarity factor score of 81.4. However, the swelling and erosion rates of the two formulations were different, and NIR analysis showed differences in the mechanisms of drug release. Thus, although formulation III and Xatral XL$^{(R)}$ show similar dissolution rates, the mechanisms of drug release are different.
