To design a supercritical fluid extraction process for the separation of bioactive substances from natural products, a quantitative
knowledge of phase equilibria between target biosolutes and solvent is necessary. How-ever, mostly no such information is
available in literature to date. Thus in the present study, illustratively the solubility of bioactive coumarin and its various
derivatives (i.e., hydroxy-, methyl-, and methoxy-derivatives) in supercritical CO2 were measured at 308.15–328.15 K and 10–30 MPa. Also, the pure physical properties such as normal boiling point, critical
constants, acentric factor, molar volume and standard vapor pressure for coumarin and its derivatives were estimated. By these
estimated information, the measured solubilities were quantitatively correlated by an approximate lattice equation of state
proposed recently by the present authors. 相似文献
Defect detection is an important technology for the quality control in the production process of wafer, TFT-LCD and PCB. Inspection is performed using the finished product’s image. The images are classified into two different groups—images with a repetitive pattern on a regular cycle and images without a repetitive pattern. A standard object for comparison is required, because manual defect detection is not possible for areas without repetitive patterns. In such areas, defect detection occurs through contrasting a reference pattern to the pattern being inspected. Methods of inspection using reference image have been researched but have limitations due to their requirement of precise alignment of the images. This paper proposes a method of defect detection to overcome such limitation using feature point matching. Feature points are extracted using a corner detector and detects defect by finding a correspondence between two feature point sets. Performance of the proposed method is evaluated by using Wafer SEM images and compared with conventional methods. Experiment results demonstrate the proposed method achieves higher detection accuracy than conventional methods and is less sensitive to alignment error and noise. 相似文献
A multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid model with no temperature dependence of close packed volumes of a mer, segment numbers
and energy parameters of pure systems is presented. The multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid (MF-NLF) model with the local
composition concept was capable of describing properties for complex systems. However, the MF-NLF model has strong temperature
dependence of energy parameters and segment numbers of pure systems; thus empirical correlations as functions of temperature
were represented for reliable and convenient use in engineering practices. The MF-NLF model without temperature dependence
of pure parameters could not predict thermodynamic properties accurately. It was found that the present model with three parameters
describes quantitatively the vapor pressure and the saturated density for the pure fluid. 相似文献
The phase behavior of ternary blends of dimethylpolycarbonate (DMPC), tetramethyl polycarbonate (TMPC), styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymer has been explored. The experimental phase behavior of ternary blends was compared with that of binary blends having the same chemical components and compositions except that the DMPC and TMPC were present in the form of copolycarbonates (DMPC-TMPC). Miscible region of DMPC/TMPC/SAN ternary blends is narrower than that of DMPC-TMPC/SAN binary blends. In addition, phase separation temperature of binary blend was higher than that of corresponding ternary blend. However, the entropic and energetic terms of ternary blends were more favorable for miscibility than those of binary blends. To understand the phase behavior of blends, phase stability conditions of binary and ternary blends were analyzed. Some ternary blends that have negative interaction energy were not miscible because these blends do not satisfy stability conditions. It was revealed that the addition of component, accompanied by the asymmetry in the binary interactions, results in destabilization of blend. 相似文献
As recent cyber-attacks have been increasing exponentially, the importance of security training for employees also has become growing ever than before. In addition, it is suggested that security training and education be an effective method for discerning cyber-attacks within academia and industries. Despite the importance and the necessity of the training, prior study did not investigate the quantitative utility of security training in an organizational level. Due to the absence of referential studies, many firms are having troubles in making decisions with respect to arranging optimal security training programs with limited security budgets. The main objective of this study is to find out a relationship between cybersecurity training and the number of incidents of organizations. Thus, this study quantified the effectiveness of security training on security incidents as the first study. This research examined the relationship among three main factors; education time, education participants, and outsourcing with numbers of cybersecurity incidents. 7089 firm level data is analyzed through Poisson regression method. Based on analysis results, we found that the negative relationship between security trainings and the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents. This study sheds light on the role of security training and education by suggesting its positive association with reducing the number of incidents in organizations from the quantitative perspective. The result of this study can be used as a referential guide for information security training decision-making procedure in organizations.
Boron distribution in a low-alloy steel (15B26:0.25C-0.29Cr-0.03Ti-0.028Al-0.0016B) has been characterized employing Fission
Track Etching (FTE) method. The characteristics of boron distribution with variation of cooling rate after austenitization
and through case-hardened depth after carburization were analyzed. Hardenability of 15B26 steel was also evaluated through
Jominy-end-quench test and the results are as follows: It was observed that, in austenitized 15B26 steel, boron was distributed
uniformly over the whole area of specimen with a little segregation along the austenite grain boundaries at higher cooling
rates and boron precipitates were formed in the intergranular as well as transgranular regions at lower cooling rates. Jominy
equivalents (HRC 35) of 15B26 steel were fairly increased between the Jominy temperatures of 820°C and 850°C, which might
result from the increase of the amount of soluble boron in austenite due to the dissolution of borocarbides between 820°C
and 850°C. In carburized 15B26 steel, the different through thickness features of boron distribution from the carburized surface
were found; coarse nodular boron precipitates up to the depth of 150 μm; uniform distribution of dissolved boron between 150~650
μm; and segregation of boron atoms along grain boundaries in the regions deeper than 650 μm. 相似文献
Numerical simulation technology was applied for optimizing the casting design and conditions in large cast iron castings for marine engine. By the simulation of mold filling and solidification sequences the problems of the previous casting conditions were analyzed and marked improvements for large cylinder liner parts were derived from these results. Especially the amount and positions of chills were optimized to increase the mechanical properties and to minimize the shrinkage and microporosity in the castings. Ultrasonic testing, penetration testing and mechanical property testing were carried out for the parts with the modified casting conditions. It showed that no defects in the castings were found and the productivity could be distinctly increased. The mechanical properties satisfied also the specification demanded. 相似文献
We present a feasible modeling method to estimate the proper curvature for large‐sized curved TVs. We especially focused on two factors – preference and perceived distortion – to be considered to determine the proper curvature. The preference includes a number of advantages that people expect to fulfill the possibilities of a more immersive image and sense of realism from curved display. On the other hand, the perceived distortion means the side effects that people can notice uncomfortable feeling caused by the shape of a curved one. In order to find out how two factors would be different as a number of conditions like curvature, size, and viewing angle change, a series of subjective assessments were conducted. The evaluation results show that both the preference and perceived distortion vary with the conditions considerably. We performed the statistical analysis based on the results and proposed the quantification model of proper curvature, which has higher preference and less perceived distortion, for various‐sized curved TVs. 相似文献
