In order to investigate the electrochemical properties and the particle size effect of $LiNi_{1-x-y}Co_xAl_yO_2$ (x=0.15, y=0.045 or 0.05, NCA) for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), two commercial NCA cathode materials (NCA#1, NCA#2) were used as cathode materials for LIB. The average particle size of the NCA#1 which consisted of uniform spherical particles was found to be approximately $5m{\mu}$. NCA#2 consisted of particles with bimodal size distribution of approximately $5m{\mu}$ and $11m{\mu}$. From the results of charge-discharge performance test, a high initial discharge capacity of 197.0 mAh/g was obtained with NCA#2, which is a higher value than that with NCA#1. The cycle retentions of NCA#1 and NCA#2 up to 30 cycles were 92% and 94%, respectively.

This study was conducted to investigate the bionomics of Curculio sikkimensis in Chonnam province from 1981 to 1983. Damage rates of the chestunt were $26.4\%$ in Damyang, $21.1\%$ in Gwangyang, and $12.9\%$ in Seungju. Adults occurred from the mid-July to the mid-September and showed peak from the mid-August to the early-September. Larvae escaped the chestnut from the early-October to the early-November. Overwintering larvae emerged $3.3\%$ in the first year, $22.78\%$ in the second year and continously overwintered $1.67\%$ in the third year. Larvae showed the highest distribution at $1.67\%$ of soil depth during the overwintering. Mortality of overwintering larvae and course of time showed the linearly correlation. Period of each stage was 5.9 days for egg and 17.17 days for pupa. Adult longevity was 9.10 days for female and 7.03 days for male.

This paper has comparatively analyzed the characteristics of the machined surface of a specimen made by machining Die Steel STD11 and a specimen obtained by W-EDM steel. If a press die is manufactured through W-EDM, products of shapes that cannot easily be made through machining can be manufactured easily. However, the life of the press die is significantly reduced compared with the press die made through machining. This is believed to be caused by the deformed layer that has occurred on the surface of the press die that was made through W-EDM. The roughness of the 2 specimens was measured, and it was learned that the distribution of the roughness of the specimen made through the 1st W-EDM was rough. When the specimens were observed using a scanning-electron microscope, there was significant difference between the surface and the cross-section of the 2 specimens, while the cross section of the specimen obtained through W-EDM had the tempered and quenched surface structure which exists in the form of a deformed layer.

Data compression techniques are traditional and effective to reduce the network traffic. Generally, sensor data exhibit strong correlation in both space and time. Many algorithms have been proposed to utilize these characteristics. However, each sensor just utilizes neighboring information, since its communication range is restrained. The distribution and characteristics of whole sensor data provide other opportunities to enhance the compression technique. In this paper, we propose an orthogonal approach for compression algorithm. The base station or a super node generates useful information for compression of sensor data and broadcasts it into sensor networks. Every sensor that received the information compresses their sensor data and transmits them to the base station. We define this approach as feedback-diffusion. In order to show the superiority of our approach, we compare it with the existing aggregation algorithms in terms of the lifetime of the sensor network. As a result, our experimental results show that the whole network lifetime was prolonged by about 30%.

Armillaria species are non-obligate root pathogens, as well as facultative parasites. The genus consists of about 40 species with worldwide distribution that are difficult to identify morphologically. Their hosts include conifers, hardwoods, vines, and even herbs. These fungi contribute to natural thinning and succession of vegetation in forests and decompose wood to develop edible fruiting bodies from spring to autumn. Its genets have a lifespan of up to 2000 years and have been found to occupy as much as 960 ha of forest land. Recently, forest tending work such as thinning of forests has resulted in the creation of tree stumps that support the growth of Armillaria, and these mushrooms have become an income source in mountainous areas. Therefore, identification of these species is needed. We review the difficulties in identification, suggest a species identification key for Korean indigenous species, and discuss the significance of Armillaria in terms of forest ecology and plant pathology.

현재 화석연료의 부족으로 인한 에너지 수급의 불균형, 자연환경의 파괴로 인해 대체에너지 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 방안으로 태양전지에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 기존 결정형 실리콘 태양전지와 비교해 화합물 반도체를 기반으로 한 박막형 태양전지는 친환경적인 제품이면서 제조원가를 절감시킬 수 있고, 반영구적인 수명 및 값싼 기판을 활용할 수 있는 장점으로 인해 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 Co-sputtering법으로 제작된 $CuInSe_2$(CIS)를 광활성층으로 한 박막형 태양전지에서 실온 ${\sim}550^{\circ}C$의 다양한 온도에서 후열 처리된 CIS 박막들의 전기적, 구조적, 광학적인 특성들을 분석하였다. 제작된 박막들 가운데 Hall Effect 측정결과 $550^{\circ}C$에서 후열 처리된 박막이 가장 높은 1.227E+22(/$cm^3$)의 캐리어 농도와 1.581(cm/$V{\cdot}s$)의 홀 이동도를 가지며, 3.092E-4(${\Omega}{\cdot}cm$)의 가장 낮은 비저항 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. EFM 측정결과 열처리 하지 않은 박막에 비해 후열처리된 CIS 박막의 전도성이 전체적으로 높아졌다. 특히, $550^{\circ}C$에서 후열 처리된 박막의 표면은 전체적으로 전기 전도성이 높은 결정립들이 골고루 분포하며 가장 높은 표면 포텐셜 에너지 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 박막들의 구조적 특성을 분석하기 위해 SEM과 XRD를 측정한 결과, $350^{\circ}C$에서 후열 처리된 박막들은 열처리 되지 않은 박막과 비교해 표면형상 변화가 일어났으며, $550^{\circ}C$에서 후열 처리된 CIS 박막들은 $CuInSe_2$(112) 방향이 향상된 chalcopyrite-like 구조를 가지면서 박막 밀도가 높고 결정립의 크기가 증가된 것을 확인하였다. 이는 박막 성장시 기판온도의 상승으로 CIS 박막 내에서 셀레늄의 확산과 상호작용으로 3원 화합물이 재결정화되어 구조적인 특성향상에 기여하였기 때문이다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 CIS 광활성층에서 후열 처리의 효과들 뿐만아니라 박막 증착시 co-sputtering법을 이용함으로써 증착시간의 감소 및 대면적화와 대량생산으로도 적용 가능함을 제시하고자 한다.

To evaluate and investigate the aging characteristics and the structural service lifetime of the CFV(carbon fiber pressure vessel), natural aging tests were carried out using the CFVs, which had been placed and aged at outdoor and indoor laboratories for 10 and 15 years, respectively. To obtain the probabilistic characteristics of ageing characteristics in aged CFVs, inner pressure loading test was conducted with ring specimens taken from aged CFVs. And, to observe the interface morphology of aged CFVs, the micro-photographs were taken by SEM microscope and the fractured interfaces between the carbon fiber and the matrix resin were scrutinized. Based on the Weibull parameters of the tensile failure strain of aged CFVs, the degradation of the 10 and the 15 year aged CFV occur by 19% and 23%, respectively, and the effect of the placement, whether being placed inside the laboratory or not, is not so significant. However, the outer layer protection, such as painting, is found very advantageous to prevent CFV from aging.

Fatigue cracking occurs over long time period because dynamic strength of slab continuously decreases by vehicle loading repetitively applied to the concrete pavement. To more accurately predict the fatigue life of the concrete pavement, the stress due to environmental loading should be considered prior to calculating the stress due to the vehicle loading because the stress due to temperature and moisture distribution always exists within the slab. Accordingly, a new fatigue model considering the environmental loading was developed in this research by evaluating factors of existing fatigue models most widely used and by making data points from the models. The applicability of the new model was evaluated by performing a fatigue analysis on the general concrete pavement structure using local climatic and traffic conditions in Korea. It was concluded that the top-down cracking due to the tensile stress at top of the slab is dominant cause of the fatigue failure than the bottom-up cracking occurred at bottom of the slab. More advanced fatigue analysis considering vehicle speed is expected by developing this study.

The important elements in pavement design criteria are the stress and strain distributions. To obtain reasonable stress and strain distribution, tire contact area and tire pressures are very important. In this study, finite element analysis was used to identify the three-dimension states using nonlinear tire contact pressure and measured tire contact area. Measured tire contact area was quite different from the assumed tire contact area, and it resulted in different strain states under the tire. At the surface course, considering tire rib and nonlinear tire pressure, the pavement response presented accurate data compared to the predicted one. However, at the binder course, tire effects were generally negligible and it showed that the predicted pavement response was different compared to the measured one.
