기계 가공품의 정밀화, 경량화 요구로 난색재로 분류되는 비철분야 및 복합재 가공용 공구개발에 대한 수요가 급증하고 있으나, 기존 난삭재 가공 시 절삭공구의 마모가 빠르고, 상대재의 융착 불량 등이 공구 수명 감소의 주요 영향으로 보고된다. 상기문제를 해결하기 위해 절삭가공 공정 중 과다한 절삭유의 사용에 따른 가공비용, 에너지소모 증가, 환경오염 등으로 절삭유의 최소화 또는 절삭유를 사용하지 않는 표면처리기술등의 친환경 가공기술의 개발이 필요하다. 내융착 및 내마모 특성 향상을 위한 표면코팅 방법으로 수소가 포함되지 않은 고경도 비정질 카본 (ta-C)이 있으나, ta-C 코팅 막은 경도 30 - 80 GPa, 잔류응력 3 - 10 GPa 범위로 일반 경질 코팅 막 (AlTiN, TiSiCrN : 평균 3 GPa)에 비해 높고 산업적 활용이 가능한 0.5 - 1.5 um 두께 수준의 후막화가 힘들어 매우 우수한 절삭공구용 코팅 막 특성에도 불구하고 적용사례가 매우 적다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 아크플라즈마 방식 (Filtered Cathode Vacuum Arc Plasma, FCVA)을 활용한 고경도/무수소 카본 코팅 막을 후막형태로 증착하여 비철금속가공용 절삭 공구류의 수명향상 기법을 제시하고자 한다. ta-C 코팅 막의 기초 공정개발 단계에서는 바이어스 전압, 공정시간을 달리하여 ta-C 코팅 막의 기계적 물성(경도: $50{\pm}3GPa$, 잔류응력: $6{\pm}1GPa$, 밀착력: 30N 이상 및 트라이볼로지 특성: 마찰계수 0.1 이하, 마멸량: $1.85{\times}10-14mm^3$)을 확보하여 절삭공구로의 공정실용화 적용검토를 실시하였다. ta-C 코팅 막은 (1) WC 공구 및 기존 상용품인 (2) TiAlN/TiN/WC 구조에 대해 증착을 실시하였으며 코팅 막의 두께 변화에 따른 실제 절삭환경에서의 내수명 관측을 진행하였다. 시험결과, ta-C/WC의 단일막 구조인 절삭공구의 경우, 실제 절삭환경에서 쉽게 박리가 발생하여 코팅 막으로서의 효과를 나타내지 못하였다. 이는, 기초 공정개발 단계에서의 밀착력 기준이 실제 환경과 부합하지 않는 것을 의미하며 추후 공정개선을 통해 극복하고자 한다. 반면에, 상용품인 (2) TiAlN/TiN/WC 구조의 절삭공구 대비 ta-C/TiAlN/TiN/WC 구조에서 내수명 증가는 약 2.5배 (기존 300회, 코팅 후 800회)로 증가하였으며 ta-C 코팅 막의 두께가 $0.6-0.8{\mu}m$일 때 최대치를 취한 후 감소하였다. 이를 통해, 절삭공구로의 ta-C 코팅 막 효과는 최외각 층의 두께 범위와 모재 강도보강을 할 수 있는 적절한 중간층 막 (TiN/TiAlN 층)이 혼합되어 나타난 것으로 사료되며 현재 산업계로의 적용을 위한 대량생산용 코팅장비의 개발 및 비용절감을 위한 공정개발이 진행 중이다.

Current sensors are used widely in the fields of current control, monitoring, and measuring. They have become more popular with the increasing demand for smart grids in a power network, generation of renewable energy, electric cars, and hybrid cars. Although open loop Hall effect current sensors have merits, such as low cost, small size, and weight, they have low accuracy. This paper describes the design and fabrication of a 300A open loop current sensor that has high accuracy and temperature performance. The core of the current sensor was calculated numerically and the signal conditioning circuits were designed using circuit analysis software. The characteristics of the manufactured open loop current sensor of 300 A class was measured at currents up to 300 A. According to the test of the current sensor, the accuracy error and linearity error were 0.75% and 0.19%, respectively. When the temperature compensation was carried out with the relevant circuit, the temperature coefficients were less than $0.012%/^{\circ}C$ at temperatures between $-25^{\circ}C$ and $85^{\circ}C$.

Canola is a crop globally used for production of oil and biofuel. Cultivation area and import volume of living modified (LM) canola have been increasing every year. As canola import dependence has reached 100% in Korea, efforts have been made for safety management of LM canola and ecological risk assessment. We developed a set of multiplex PCR method for simultaneous detection of 5 LM canola events (Topas 19/2, Rf3, Ms8, RT73 and T45) approved in Korea. The multiplex PCR assay developed allows amplification of estimated products of 5 LM canolas from event specific primer sets. Primer extension time was skipped for a time-consuming process and two annealing steps (20 cycles at $55^{\circ}C$ and 20 cycles at $60^{\circ}C$) were performed for yielding the best result which was sufficient to distinguish five LM canolas. Our results suggest that multiplex PCR method provides a cost and time-effective approach for LM canola detection.

폴리프로필렌(PP)은 고결정성 범용수지로서 염색성, 내열성, 촉감 등의 문제로 의류용 소재로는 부적합하여 초기에는 카펫용 섬유로서 가염형 폴리프로필렌 섬유가 상업화 되었지만 성공하지는 못하였다. 그 후, 섬유 산업도 의류용 외의 산업자재, 생활 자재 분야 등이 성장함에 따라, 폴리프로필렌 섬유의 수요가 확대되었다. 최근들어 스포츠 액티브 의류가 일반의류 트렌드로 들어오면서 기능성 섬유가 요구되고 이 분위기에 맞춰 다시 한번 폴리프로필렌 섬유의 의류화가 요구되는 시점이 되었으며 섬유중 에너지 소비량이 가장 적고, 쉽게 재용해할 수 있으며 소각시 유해 가스발생량이 매우 적은 특징등이 있기 때문에 지구 환경보호의 입장에서 폴리프로필렌 섬유가 재검토되고 있다. 이번 실험은 분산염료를 이용하여 농도별, 온도별, 시간별, 후처리시 시간과 온도의 변화로 가염 PP/PET 섬유의 염색특성을 알아보기 위해 실험 진행하였다. 실험에 사용되는 시약은 1급으로, $CH_3COOH$, NaOH, $Na_2S_2O_4$이며, 조제는 분산제, 정련제를 사용하였다. 먼저 온도별 실험에서 $40^{\circ}C$에서 승온하여 각각 $100^{\circ}C$, $110^{\circ}C$, $120^{\circ}C$, $130^{\circ}C$에서 온도에 따라 염색되는 정도를 알아보았다. 가장 높은 흡진을 보이는 온도에서 각각 40min, 50min, 60min, 70min 염색 유지시간 실험을 하여 염색이 안정되는 시간을 측정하였다. 위의 실험 결과 최적의 조건으로 염색농도에 따른 Build up 실험을 진행하였다. 가염 PP/PET 섬유는 일반 Polyester처럼 $120{\sim}130^{\circ}C$에서 가장 높은 염색농도 값(K/S)을 보인다. 또한 $130^{\circ}C$에서의 유지시간에서는 50 min 이상 진행시 더 이상의 흡진이 없거나, 염료의 탈락이 있음을 알수 있다. Build up 실험에서는 8.0%까지 실험하였지만, 결과는 그 이상농도를 사용하여도 염색은 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 후처리에 대한 실험에서 염료에 따라 차이가 있지만 크게 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 보이며, 제품성 평가 결과를 보면 후처리를 했을 경우 견뢰도가 우수한 것을 알 수 있었다.

This study analyzed causal relationship between electricity consumption and economic output (GDP) for Korea from 2001 to 2014 employing the vector error-correction model estimation by manufacturing sector. The results of unit-roots tests show that all sectoral GDP and electricity consumptions were not stationary. And cointegration tests show that processed foods, Wood Pulp Paper, electricity apparatus, Precision Medical sectors had a linear combinations in the long run between electricity consumptions and economic growth. With respect to the direction of causality, manufacturing sector has a uni-directional running from economic output (GDP) to electricity consumption in short term. The results of study show that sectoral causal relation were different each other in short term and long term. These findings imply that electricity demand management policy focusing on efficiency improvement is necessary to minimize negative impacts on economic growth and to adopt suitable structural policies can induce energy conservation.

Recently, It became possible to transport freights and energy resources via Northern Sea Route(NSR) as global warming has been accelerated. As a result, all countries of the world and Korean local governments have had a struggle to take the advantageous position first in NSR development. However, this extreme competitions might have a negative effect on the national port industry and cause unnecessary social costs and economic losses. Therefore, the main target of this study is to find the most suitable port for NSR using AHP analysis. Most of the data was gained from previous literatures and public statistics and the weight of each factor was calculated by the result of expert survey. As a result, Busan port has the biggest competitiveness, followed by Yeosu Gwangyang, Ulsan and Incheon. From the result, this study suggested 3 possible scenarios. The first scenario specializing Busan port in NSR focuses more on developing the related businesses such as repair of ships, refueling, ship stores trade than attracting the more cargoes. the second is a strategy to make Ulsan port as a hub for energy resources, especially liquid cargo on NSR. the last is a mixed one to assign suitable roles to the ports according to their competitive capabilities.

Acquisition of reliable depth maps is a critical requirement in many applications such as 3D videos and free-viewpoint TV. Depth information can be obtained from the object directly using physical sensors, such as infrared ray (IR) sensors. Recently, Time-of-Flight (ToF) range camera including KINECT depth camera became popular alternatives for dense depth sensing. Although ToF cameras can capture depth information for object in real time, but are noisy and subject to low resolutions. Recently, filter-based depth up-sampling algorithms such as joint bilateral upsampling (JBU) and noise-aware filter for depth up-sampling (NAFDU) have been proposed to get high quality depth information. However, these methods often lead to texture copying in the upsampled depth map. To overcome this limitation, we formulate a convex optimization problem using higher order regularization for depth map upsampling. We decrease the texture copying problem of the upsampled depth map by using edge weighting term that chosen by the edge information. Experimental results have shown that our scheme produced more reliable depth maps compared with previous methods.

Using hydrogen fuel is expected to be suitable as a reciprocating internal combustion engine with heightened interest in HALE(High Altitude Long Endurance) UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). Hydrogen is hightest energy density per mass so it can continue to charge for long periods of time and have positive part of the environmental effects. However, it is estimated that there is less research on hydrogen fuel engine currently applied, and many studies need to be done. Depending on the operation, there are factors that result in supercooling due to reduced radiation or reduce cooling performance due to low air density. Therefore, the experiment was to change the temperature of the cooling water and investigate the effect on engine combustions. The limitation of the stable operation range due to backfire is dominated by the excess air ratio rather than the effect of the cooling water temperature change. When the cooling water temperature increases, the volumetric efficiency decreases and the torque decreases. As the cooling water temperature decreases, the heat loss was increased and consequently the thermal efficiency was decreased.

We investigate the two recent simulations of the proto-type domestic carbon emission trading system in Korea and draw some policy implications. The first simulation includes the 5 electric power companies based on baseline and credit. But the second one is with the 7 energy-intensive companies based on cap and trade. The voluntary approaches in this paper revealed the instability of market equilibrium, i.e., price volatility or distortion, excess supply or demand. These phenomena stems from excess incentives to the players, asymmetric information, players' irresponsible strategic behaviors, and non acquaintance of trading system. This paper suggests the basic design for domestic carbon trading system in future and a stepwise introduction strategy for it including the incentive auction scheme, the total quantity of incentive needed, and how to finance it. Meantime, the further simulations on the various sectors based on voluntary participation must be essential for learning experiences and better policy design.

As electric power demand of customers is constantly increasing, more bulk power systems are needed to install in a network. By development of renewable energies and high-efficient facilities and deregulated electricity market, moreover, the amount of distributed resource is considerably increasing in distribution network consequently. Also, distribution network has become more and more complex as mesh network to improve the distribution system reliability and increase the flexibility and agility of network operation. These changes make fault current increase. Therefore, the fault current will exceed a circuit breaker capacity. In order to solve this problem, replacing breaker, changing operation mode of system and rectifying transformer parameters can be taken into account. The SFCL(Superconducting Fault Current Limiter) is one of the most promising power apparatus. This paper proposes a methodology for on optimal location of SFCL. This place is defined as considering the decrement of fault current by component type and the increment of reliability by customer type according to an location of SFCL in a distribution network connected with DG(Distributed Generation). With case studies on method of determining optimal location for SFCL applied to a radial network and a mesh network respectively, we proved that the proposed method is feasible.
