A benthic microbial fuel cells(BMFC) is fuel cell using electricity produced by decomposing organic matter in a sea or a lake. In this study, we used a gas diffusion layer (GDL) of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEMFC) as a BMFC electrode to find out the operation conditions with high performance. The performance of BMFC was increased as resistance of external resistor increased. It was possible to maintain the performance by avoiding the increase of the contact resistance with the electrode due to corrosion of the lead wire in seawater. The bubble generator was able to increase the maximum power density by more than 2 times and the optimum operating temperature was $40^{\circ}C$.

We proposed the new driving waveform which has changed the waveform of sustain division to improve luminous efficiency in plasma display panel. This sustain waveform is to add the ramp to the rectangular waveform, resulting in self-erasing discharge in the falling edge region. The proposed waveform has improved the luminous efficiency of 30％ even in low driving frequency(25kHz), whereas the conventional driving waveform using the self-erasing discharge can improve the luminous efficiency only in high driving frequency( >150kHz). Front the results of this paper, we hope that the variety study on frequency and duty ratio, ramp waveform will increase the luminous efficiency.

수자원 분야에서 이용하고 있는 모형을 구동하기 위해서는 대상 지역의 지형특성과 시계열 자료 및 비공간적 매개변수 등의 많은 정보가 필요하다. 이러한 자료들은 다양한 과정을 거쳐서 모형에 입력되며, 모의대상이 복잡한 구조를 가지고 있거나 모형의 구동조건이 변할 경우, 모형의 구동과 결과의 관리를 위해서는 더욱 많은 노력이 필요하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 자료들을 효과적으로 관리하고 운용하는 것은 모형구동의 효율성과 객관성을 유지하는데 매우 중요한 요소가 될 수 있다. 이를 위하여 국내 기술로 개발된 GIS 기반의 수자원시스템인 HyGIS(Hydro Geographic Information System)와 수자원 모형을 연계하여 운영할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하고자 하며, 이를 HyGIS-Model이라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 HyGIS의 시공간 데이터 모델을 소개하고, HyGIS-Model 중 HyGIS와 SWAT2000 모형이 연계된 시스템(HyGIS-SWAT)을 개발하기 위한 데이터 모델링에 대해서 기술하고자 한다. 연구결과 HyGIS 데이터 모델과 HyGIS-Model 통합시스템 운영 표준은 HyGIS-SWAT 데이터 모델링과 시스템 설계에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있었다. 이를 통하여 GIS와 수자원 모형의 연계 시스템을 개발하기 위한 시스템 설계에 대한 기술을 확보할 수 있었으며, GIS를 이용한 수자원 모형의 입력자료의 생성, 운영 및 모형 구동 결과의 관리에 대한 표준적 절차를 수립할 수 있었다.

This paper proposes a new gate drive circuit for high power IGBTs which can reduce the harmful effect of reverse recovery current at turn-on and actively suppress the overvoltage across the driven IGBT at turn-off without a snubber circuit. The turn-on scheme decreases the rising rate of the collector current by inereasing the input capacitance at turn-on transient when the gate-emitter voltage goes above threshold voltage. It results in soft transient of the reverse recovery current with no variation in turn-on delay time. The turn-off driving scheme has adaptive feature to the amplitude of collector current, so that the overvoltage can be limited much effectively at the fault collector current. Experimental results under various normal and fault conditions prove the effectiveness of the proposed circuit.

In this paper, it is accomplished to design a control method for such an actuation system of simplified ON/OFF mechanism with actuation command limit. First of all, based on experimental data, the modeling works for nonlinear/linear actuation dynamics are performed, which are govern by PWM command as a control input. Using the linearized model, a classical PI control method is designed to satisfy the aimed control performance requirements, and a control algorithm is proposed to realize the required control performance in the effective control region through resolving the issue for the PWM command limit which reduces the control performance. Finally, through control simulations, the design method is verified and the corresponding control performance improvement is evaluated.

The control system of a direct drive servo valve is a nonlinear system, and the flow force effect on the spool motion is significant and dependent on the load pressure. To satisfy the control system design requirements, the optimal parameters of the lead-lag controller and the derivative feedback controller are searched for using a genetic algorithm and a complex constrained direct search type method. The obtained controller parameters successfully perform their role to satisfy the control system design requirements.

A fundamental study on the cooling apparatus inshore fishing boat and its operation characteristics in sea water cooling system were performed experimentally. The circumstance is giving the blow against fisherman with incoming-decreasing and the difficulty of crew's supply and demand and management. In addition, the depression of the external situation such as the plan of EEZ(Exclusive Economic Zone) proclaim is forcing them into improving their fishing condition. By this international and domestic surrounding, the development of a cooling apparatus inshore fishing boat is demanded sincerely. We investigated load characteristics as the pilot plant operation characteristics estimation which is based on the development of cooling system and optimum cooling apparatus inshore fishing boat. These results provide useful informations which are applicable to an actual design and show the possibility of application to other fields.

The EHA(Electro-hydrostatic Actuator) reveals completely different characteristics from the conventional valve-controlled Electro-hydraulic actuators. In this paper, its mathematical model including nonlinear elements was derived to be verified by experiments. Based on this, a simulation program was developed for the EHAs consisting of an electric motor driven hydraulic pump, pipe lines and a cylinder. The influence of important design parameters such as peak motor torque and rotational inertia moment of the hydraulic pump on control performance was investigated, where the test condition was intentionally selected so that the motor torque was saturated during the transient phase. As a result, design requirements for improving the control accuracy under full speed operation conditions of the EHAs were investigated.

This paper deals with the control and fault monitoring of a DDV hydraulic actuation system. A hydraulic servo system has a nonlinear dynamics of an orifice flow through a valve spool. A full nonlinear model for a DDV actuation system is driven, and linearized to a simple model which is convenient for a control loop and fault monitor design. A top level requirement on the performance and safety for the actuation system is introduced. A control system and fault monitoring structure which can meet these requirements are discussed. A simulation package for a DDV actuation system which has a triplex redundant structure is developed.
