As the market of lithium secondary batteries moves from mobile IT devices to large-format electric vehicles or energy storage systems, the strengthened battery specifications such as long-term reliability longer than 10 years, pack-level safety and tough competitive price have been required. Moreover, even though high power properties should also be achieved for hybrid electric vehicles, it is not easy to measure accurate power values at various conditions. Because it is difficult to choose a proper measurement method and its experimental condition is more complex comparing to capacity measurement. In addition, the power values are very sensitive to power duration time, state-of-charge (SOC) of cells, cut-off voltages, and temperatures, whereas capacity values are not. In this paper, we introduce three kinds of power measurement methods, hybrid pulse power characterization (HPPC) suggested by US FreedomCar, so-called J-pulse by Japan electric vehicle association standards (JEVS) and constant power measurement, respectively. Moreover, with pouch-type unit cells for HEV, experimental power data are discussed in order to compare each power measurement.

Recently, with the development of IoT technology, there has been an increase in interest in the power consumption of the devices used by the internal devices. Especially, the standby power consumption during the main function of the devices is about 11% of the power energy and the problem of standby power interruption is suggested. However, there is a problem that the plug must be unplugged in order to substantially shut off standby power. Therefore, in this paper, we design and implement a standby power cutoff algorithm that can automatically control and manage users' participation in order to solve there problems. As a result of evaluating the implemented system, it was confirmed that the standby power interruption rate improved by about 5.89Wh on average compared to the existing system.

In this paper, we are proposing an optimal design of wideband pulsed type gamma-ray sensors. These sensors were manufactured based on the design results and after word electrical properties were analyzed. The sensor input parameters were derived on the basis of pulsed gamma-ray spectrum and time-dependent energy rate, and the output current which were derived on the basis of the sensor sensitivity control circuit. Pulsed gamma-ray sensors were designed using the TCAD simulators. The design results show that the optimal Epi layer thickness is 45um with the applied voltage 3.3V and the diameter is 2.0mm. The doping concentrations are as follows : N-type is an Arsenic as $1{\times}10^{19}/cm^3$, P-type is a Boron as $1{\times}10^{19}/cm^3$ and Epi layer is Phosphorus as $3.4{\times}10^{12}/cm^3$. The fabricated sensor was a leakage current, 12pA at voltage -3.3V and fully depleted mode at voltage -5V. A test result of pulsed radiation shows that the sensor gives out the optimal photocurrent.

$BaTiO_3$는 perovskite 구조를 가지는 대표적인 강유전체 재료로서 MLCC (Multi Layer Ceramic Capacitor), PTC thermistor 등에 널리 사용되어지고 있으며, 그 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 현제 $BaTiO_3$ 분말 제조의 대표적인 합성법으로는 하소와 분쇄공정이 없는 수열합성법이 대표적이나, 나노 사이즈로 제작시 $BaTiO_3$는 마이크로 크기와 달리 입방정상으로 우세한 상태로 존재한다. 이는 제조과정 중의 hydroxyl defect의 영향과 나노 분말의 표면에너지 증가 때문이라고 보고된다. 따라서 본 연구는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 일반적인 세라믹 제조 방법인 고상반응법을 이용한 나노 사이즈의 $BaTiO_3$ 제조를 위한 최적의 공정 조건을 확립하기 위하여 본 연구를 진행하였다. 조성은 $BaTiO_3$와 반응온도를 낮추기 위한 anatase의 $TiO_2$를 사용하였고, $BaCO_3/TiO_2$ 의 조성비 (1. 1.01, 1.02, 1.03)를 제어하여 혼합한 후, 24h ball-mill 하여 하소 온도 ($860^{\circ}C{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$) 변화에 따른 입자 사이즈와 입도 분포를 측정하였다. 제조된 $BaTiO_3$분말의 결정 구조 분석을 위하여 XRD (X-ray diffraction) 분석을 수행 하였는데, 분석 결과로부터 제조된 분말들이 정방정 (tetragonal)의 perovskite구조를 갖고 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 분말의 미세구조 확인을 위하여 SEM (scanning electron microscope) 관찰을 수행하였는데, 나노 사이즈의 구형 분말을 얻을 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The electrical load testing system developed from this study was designed to control rated-capacity-testing or variable-load-testing in an active and precise manner and save electric energy during testing, and also to convert the saved electric energy through the electrical load testing system to grid line. As for the device under testing, it was designed to be applied to not only transformer, rectifier, voltage regulator, inverter which require grid voltage source but, also applied to electric power, aerogenerator, photovoltaic, hybrid generator, battery, etc. which do not require grid voltage source. The system was designed to return the power consumed during the testing to the grid line by connecting the synchronizing pwm inverter circuit to the grid voltage source, and was also made to enable the being-tested system from disuse of approximately 93.4% energy when compared to the conventional load testing system which has used the passive resistor.

As fiber reinforced composite materials are widely used in aircraft, space structures and robot arms, the study on non-destructive testing methods has become an important research area for improving their reliability and safety. AE (acoustic emission) can evaluate the defects by detecting the emitting strain energy when elastic waves are generated by the initiation and growth of crack, plastic deformation, fiber breakage, matrix cleavage, or delamination. In the paper, AE signals generated under uniaxial tension were measured and analyzed using the $8{\times}8$ matrix piezo electric sensor. The electronic circuit to control the transmitting distance of AE signals was designed and constructed. The optical data storage system was also designed to store the AE signal of 64channels using LED (light emitting diode) elements. From the tests, it was shown that the source location and propagation path of AE signals in composite materials could be detected effectively by the $8{\times}8$ matrix piezo electric sensor.

The stability, energetic efficiency and walking volume are affected by the geometric structure of legs of a walking robot. A quadruped walking robot is considered to have large stability margin among the walking robots and pantograph leg permits large walk stroke and mutually independent vertical and horizontal movements, but the kinematic characteristics are difficult to analyze. Graphical method may be useful to characterize three dimensional legged motion of the pantograph mechanism. We present the modelling method for three different quadruped robots with pantograph legs that have different joints mechanism. The modeled robots are animated by a path that is planned with respect to the center of body. In particular, graphical animation incorporates leg control to rotation and side walking and uses the window of Sun-3 system for displaying joint information.
