This paper focused on investigating the seam strength by cutting direction depending on the fabrics and weave by comparing the tensile strength and elongation of bias, warp and weft of 4 kinds of find cotton fabrics and combining 6 kinds of seam cutting directions. The cutting directions are selected the warp direction, weft direction and 45-degree bias direction. Then, three kinds of directions, the warp/warp direction, the weft/weft direction and the bias/bias directions, and the three different kinds of directions, the warp/weft direction, the warp/bias direction and the weft/bias directions, were finally selected. The results are as follows: The tensile strength of all fabrics was higher in the order of warp, bias and weft direction and tensile elongation was higher in the order of bias, warp and weft direction in almost all fabrics. 100's and 150's cotton fabrics showed the highest seam strength when they were cut in the bias/bias direction. The seam strength of the fabrics cut in the same direction was the highest in the fabrics cut in the bias/bias direction. Four kinds of fabrics demonstrated the similar seam strength. However, for the seam strength of fabrics cut in the different directions, 100's cotton fabrics had the difference of seam strength by direction and weave, but 150's cotton fabrics didn't have any difference in seam strength by direction and weave. As described above, the seam strength was influenced by the cutting direction of fabrics. Accordingly, the seam strength can be improved by changing the cutting direction of seam when making the clothing.

The flame speed may be decomposed into the burning speed and the flame transport speed. The flame transport speed is affected considerably by the flow direction, variation rate of flow direction, and flow speed in the combustion chamber. Especially, the flow direction and the variation rate of flow direction at the spark plug location during the ignition period have an important effect on the ignition process and the early flame propagation process. We measured the flow direction component and the variation rate of flow direction with a hot wire probe at the spark plug location. It was shown that the representative flow direction of ignition period is the right-vertical direction of crank shaft and it was used to investigate the variation rate of flow direction.

Objective: The aim of this study is to suggest the standard of the direction sign on the pendant switch of overhead cranes which can reduce human errors in control. Background: A great number of crane accidents occur in industries. One of the major causes of the accidents is the mistake in the control of cranes by confusing the orientation of crane movements. Nevertheless, three different direction sign styles, 'East, West, South, North (EWSN)', 'Forward, Backward, Left, Right (FBLR)', and arrows for four directions are used without standardization. Method: An overhead crane simulator was installed for a laboratory experiment. It could move along six directions by the control of a pendant switch. 90 participants were evenly assigned to the three different conditions of direction sign styles. The participants were asked to control the pendant switch according to the continuously appearing 16 direction signs on a monitor ahead. The participants were allowed to refer an orientation sign board on the ceiling representing correct movement directions of the overhead crane simulator. Results: The direction sign style, 'EWSN', showed statistically significant better performance in task completion time and number of errors than the other sign styles. The direction sign style, 'EWSN', adopting the cardinal direction system, made the participants clear in direction controls after customizing to the crane movements. However, the direction sign styles, 'FBLR' and the arrows adopting the relative direction system made conflicts in direction controls due to the egocentric view of human. Conclusion: The direction sign style, 'EWSN', is the most appropriate for the standardization of the direction sign on the pendant switch of overhead cranes. Application: The results of this study can be applied to the standardization of direction sign in the legal notification on the safety certifications of crane manufacturing.

In this study, the modified genetic algorithm, D-GA, is proposed. D-GA is a hybrid genetic algorithm combined a simple genetic algorithm and the local search algorithm using direction vectors. Also, two types of direction vectors, learning direction vector and random direction vector, are defined without the sensitivity analysis. The accuracy of D-GA is compared with that of simple genetic algorithm. It is demonstrated that the proposed approach can be an effective optimization technique through a minimum weight structural optimization of ten bar truss.

In this paper, a 2-dimensional phase comparison direction finding receiver was designed and fabricated. For 2-D comparison direction finding, direction finding formulas were derived from a uniformly arranged of four antennas. Based on this, a direction finding receiver was designed using Matlab simulink, and the direction finding receiver was fabricated. To analyze the performance of the designed direction finding receiver, the injection direction finding accuracy and simulation results were compared. As a result of the test, the fabricated direction finding receiver showed a maximum of 3° RMS precision, and the result of both tests showed similar trends. Also, it was confirmed that the direction finding accuracy of elevation angle is about 2.7 times better than azimuth angle, and both models performed well within 0.7° RMS at the boresight.

The elastic waves in the plate are dispersive waves with the characteristics of Lamb waves. However, $S_0$ symmetric mode is less dispersive in the frequency region less than first cut-off frequency. And, in anisotropic plates such as CFRP plates, the propagation velocities vary with the direction. So, the wave vector direction to be the phase velocity direction is not accord with the energy flow direction to be the group velocity direction. In this work, the group velocities of the $S_0$ symmetric mode less than the first cut-off frequency was analyzed with the group velocity dispersion curves in unidirectional CFRP plate. And, the group velocity curve obtained by the group velocity dispersion curves are compared with the measured velocities as varied the propagation direction of the Lamb wave. The measured velocities are good agreement with the corrected group velocity curve except near the fiber direction which is called the cusp region. When the propagation direction is not accorded with the principal axis, the direction of the group velocities declines to the fiber direction in the unidirectional CFRP plates. This implies that the energy propagates preferentially toward fiber direction.

The direction component uses mainly the sobel and FFT method. The sobel method is difficult to set representative direction when we wish to extract representative direction when we wish to extract representative direction component and the complicated processing process of sobel mask because same value appears in the low provision image or high provision image and we cannot accumulate tilt size in case of making accumulate after making unit vector to pixel. The method that uses FFT conversion for direction extraction is possible in case that ridge has correct direction specification and must use a special direction filter. After thinning the binary image to supplement above weak point in the paper, we extract direction component by pixel unit, and we extract the most direction components of pixel that exist in block of 8${\times}$8 pixels size as representative direction of ridge.

This experimental study is perform to study the effect of the direction for the centrifugal force in operating centrifugal casting machine. In order to investigate the effect of direction for centrifugal force action on the casting ability 20 pieces of specimen are produced including one vertical direction and four horizontal directions. Casting shows us that the 15 pieces of specimen among them are included within $\pm$16. The results obtained through the comparison with 5 groups of the casting ability are as follows: 1. In the experiment of the casting, statistically significant difference are found between the vertical direction and the group of horizontal direction, namely, the direction of 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock, and also statistically there are significant differences between the direction of 9 o'clock and of 6 o'clock, and between the direction of 9 o'clock and of 12 o'clock which lie between the groups of horizontal directions. 2. The degree of casting ability is showing us on an average, 23.80 in the vertical direction. And also in the group of horizontal direction it prove in turn 15.60 in the direction of 9 o'clock, 14.47 of 3 o'clock, 13.30 of 12 o'clock, and 12.80 of 6 o'clock.

Distance relays achieve selective tripping by measurement of all short circuit fault conditions inside set reaches. The direction of the fault, forward or reverse is commonly determined with a dedicated measurement to ensure selectivity under all conditions. For the direction decision (measurement) a number of alternatives are available. This paper describes a loop selective direction measurement and illustrates by means of a typical fault why this is superior to a non loop selective direction measurement such as that based on negative sequence quantities.
