Take-overs occur in autonomous vehicles at levels 3 and 4 based on SAE. For safe take-over, it is necessary to set the time required for diverse drivers to complete take-over in various road conditions. In this study, take-over time and stabilization characteristics were measured to secure safety of take-over in autonomous vehicle. To this end, a virtual driving simulator was used to set up situations similar to those on real expressways. Fifty drivers with various sexes and ages participated in the experiment where changes in traffic volume and geometry were applied to measure change in takeover time and stabilization characteristics according to various road conditions. Experimental results show that the average take-over time was 2.3 seconds and the standard deviation was 0.1 second. As a result of analysis of stabilization characteristics, there was no difference in take-over stabilization time due to the difference of traffic volume, and there was a significant difference by curvature changes.

The stabilization time of take-over refers to the time it takes for driving to stabilize after the take-over. Following a take-over request from an automated driving system, the driver must become aware of the road driving environment and perform manual driving, making it crucial to clearly understand the relationship between the driving environment and stabilization time of take-over. However, previous studies specifically focusing on stabilization time after take-over are rare, and research considering the driving environment is also lacking. To address this, our study conducted experiments using a driving simulator to observe take-over transitions. The results were analyzed using a liner mixed model to quantitatively identify the driving environment factors affecting the stabilization time of take-over. Additionally, coefficients for stabilization time based on each influencing factor were derived.

A solar water battery is a system that generates power using solar energy. It is a combination of photoelectrochemical cells and an energy storage system. It can simultaneously convert and store solar energy without additional external voltage. Solar water batteries consist of photoelectrodes, storage electrodes and counter electrodes, and their properties and combination are important for the performance and the efficiency of the system. In this study, we tried to find the effect that changing the components of solar water batteries has on its system. The effects of the counter electrode during discharge, the kinds of photoelectrode and storage electrode materials, and electrolytes on the solar energy conversion and storage capacitance were studied. The optimized composition (TiO2 : NaFe-PB : Pt foil) exhibited 72.393 mAh g-1 of discharge capacity after 15 h of photocharging. It indicates that the efficiency of solar energy conversion and storage is largely affected by the configuration of the system. Also, the addition of organic pollutants to the chamber of the photoelectrode improved the battery's photo-current and discharge capacity by efficient photoelectron-hole pair separation with simultaneous degradation of organic pollutants. Solar water batteries are a new eco-friendly solar energy conversion and storage system that does not require additional external voltages. It is also expected to be used for water treatment that utilizes solar energy.

폐자동차의 최종처분 과정에서 발생하는 자동차 파쇄 폐기물(Automobile Shredder Dust)은 대부분이 고분자 화합물로 높은 발열량을 가지고 있다. 또한 할로겐족 원소가 포함된 난연성 고분자류가 많아 다이옥신의 생성 우려가 높은 고분자류와 다이옥신 생성의 촉매 역할을 할 수 있는 금속성분이 많이 함유되어 있어 가스화용융시스템에 적용하여 처리하기에 매우 적합한 폐기물이다. 본 연구에서는 ASR의 가스화 용융 시설에서 고농도 CO를 함유한 합성가스를 수성가스전환반응(Water Gas Shift reaction, WGS)을 이용하여 수소의 수율을 높이는 기술을 제시하였다. 가스화 용융 설비에서 배출되는 합성가스 조성을 기준으로 적합한 고정층 WGS 반응기를 설계하고, 고온 촉매(KATALCO 71-5M)와 저온 촉매(KATALCO 83-3X)를 사용하여 실험하였다. 수성가스 반응 후의 가스 조성은 온도가 상승할수록 일산화탄소가 줄어들고 이에 따라 수소와 이산화탄소 발생량이 증가 되어 고온 촉매를 사용했을 경우 일산화탄소 전환율 ($1-CO_{out}/CO_{in}$)은 55.6에서 95.8%까지 상승하였다. 동일한 온도조건에서는 촉매에 관계없이 $CO/H_2$가 감소할수록 전환율도 감소하는 경향을 보였지만 동일한 합성가스 조성에서 일산화탄소 전환율을 비교하면 저온 촉매가 고온 촉매보다 매우 우수함을 알 수 있었다.

In single mode fiber optic transmission systems(FOT's) operated at high modulation rates over long fiber spans, chromatic dispersion can produce distortion in the demodulated waveforms, resulting in intersymbol interference(ISI) in the received signal and a reduction of transmission system performance. In this paper, chromatic dispersion limitations for intensity modulation and direct detection(IM-DD) systems are studied by considering the effect of phase modulation to amplitude modulation (PM-AM) conversion noise. Laser phase noise conversion to amplitude noise due to fiber chromatic dispersion is analyzed by deriving the noise power spectral density. We first derive the noise power spectral density of the laser phase noise to intensity noise conver- sion. Next, also evaluate the system power penalty and the transmitter laser linewidth required to avoid PM-AM conversion noise penalties in long-haul nonregenerative transmission system using an external modulator and optical amplifiers. For such system with optical amplifiers, transmission sys- tem length is limited due to fiber chromatic dispersion, even if an ideal external modulator is used.

차세대 재생산성 에너지로 각광을 받고 있는 바이오디젤은 현재 주로 알칼리촉매를 이용하는 화학공정으로 생산하고 있으나 고에너지 요구성이며 대규모 생산시 폐수발생 등 환경오염 유발요인이 있기 때문에 친환경 생물공정의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 생물촉매 리파제(lipase)를 이용하는 친환경 생물공정은 화학공정에 비해 다양한 장점을 제공하고 있으나 고가의 효소생산 비용문제로 실용화에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저비용의 생물학적 바이오디젤 생산 시스템 구축을 위해 고활성의 효소 개발, 경제적 재조합 대량생산, 반복 재사용을 위한 효소고정화 등을 통해 고효율의 생산반응계를 개발하였다. 우선 바이오디젤 생산공정에 적합한 리파제로서 CalB(Lipase B of Candida antarctica)를 선택하고 분자 진화기술을 이용하여 효소활성을 17배 향상시킨 CalB14를 개발하였다. CalB14를 효모 발현시스템을 이용하여 경제적 대량생산하기 위해 단백질분비를 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 맞춤형 분비융합합인자기술(TFP technology)을 이용하여 재조합 CalB를 2 grams/liter 수준으로 분비생산하였다. 생산된 효소를 반복 재사용이 가능하도록 다양한 레진에 고정화하였고 최적의 바이오디젤 전환반응용 고정화효소를 개발하였다. 고정화효소를 효율적으로 재사용하기 위해 바이오디젤 생산용 고정상반응기(packed-bed reactor)를 제작하였으며 기질을 12시간내에 95% 이상 바이오디젤로 수십회 이상 반복전환할 수 있는 경제적인 생물학적 바이오디젤 전환 시스템을 구축하였다.

We produced the transgenic silkworm that expressed the enhanced blue fluorescent protein (EBFP) in the cocoon of silkworms. The EBFP fusion protein, each with N- and C-terminal sequences of the fibroin H-chain, was designed to be secreted into the lumen of the posterior silk glands. The expression of the EBFP/H-chain fusion gene was regulated by the fibroin H-chain promoter. The use of the $3{\times}P3$-driven DsRed2 cDNA as a marker allowed us to rapidly distinguish transgenic silkworm. A mixture of the donor and helper vector was micro-injected into 300 eggs of silkworms, Baegokjam. We obtained 5 broods. The cocoon displayed blue fluorescence, proving that the fusion protein was present in the cocoon. Also, the presence of fusion proteins in cocoons was demonstrated by SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis. Accordingly, we suggest that the EBFP fluorescence silk will enable the production of the silk-based biomaterials.

We constructed the fibroin H-chain expression system to produce enhanced yellow fluorescent proteins (EYFP) in the silk of transgenic silkworm. Fluorescent silk could be made by fusing EYFP cDNA to the heavy chain gene and injecting it into a silkworm. The EYFP fusion protein, each with N- and C-terminal sequences of the fibroin H-chain, was designed to be secreted into the lumen of the posterior silk glands. The expression of the EYFP/H-chain fusion gene was regulated by the fibroin H-chain promoter. The yellow fluorescence proving that the fusion protein was present in the silk. Accordingly, we suggest that the EYFP fluorescence silk will enable the production of novel biomaterial based on the transgenic silk.
