최근 액체 플라즈마에 대한 주된 이슈는 방전에 의해 발생하는 히드록실라디칼(OH-)과 버블이다. 액체 플라즈마를 이용한 다양한 응용분야에서는 히드록실라디칼에 주목하고 있다. 액체 플라즈마는 그래핀 파생물의 용액 친화도 향상을 위해 이용될 수 있다. 흑연이 포함된 과산화수소(H2O2) 용액에서 전기적인 방전으로 만들어진 히드록실라디칼로 그래핀 파생물의 용액 친화도를 향상시킨다. 이는 잠재적인 프린팅(printing) 기술 발전에 기대된다. 그리고 이 라디칼은 폐수에서 발암성의 트라이클로로아세트산(CCl3COOH)을 탈 염소하고 분해하는 역할을 하여 액체 플라즈마가 새로운 수처리 기술로 부상되고 있다. 또한 인체에서는 살균 작용을 하는 것 뿐만 아니라 단백질 고리를 끊는 역할을 하여 전립선 수술과 같은 인체수술에 적용될 수 있다. 최근 액체 플라즈마를 이용한 돼지 각막 임상수술에서 레이저와 필적할 정도로 매우 정밀하게 수술된 연구결과가 발표되어 인체 각막수술 적용에 기대된다. 이처럼 액체 플라즈마를 이용한 대부분의 응용분야에서 히드록실라디칼의 역할이 중요하다. 액체 플라즈마의 또 다른 이슈인 버블은 2가지의 역할을 한다. 첫 번째로 방전소스의 역할이다. 액체 속에 담긴 얇은 전극에 전압을 인가하면 전극 주변에서 강한 전기장의 발생으로 줄열(joule heating)에 의해 버블이 생성된다. 전극에서 버블이 생성되었을 때, 서로 다른 유전율을 가진 두 물질로 나누어진다. (버블 안은 공기로 상대 유전율 ${\varepsilon}r{\fallingdotseq}=1$, 용액은 ${\varepsilon}r{\fallingdotseq}=80$이다.) 시스템에 인가된 전압이 항복 전압(breakdown voltage)을 넘어서면 유전율이 상대적으로 낮은 버블내부에 강한 전기장이 걸리게 되어 방전이 일어난다. 만약 버블이 존재하지 않는다면 방전을 위해서 매우 높은 전압이 필요하다. 따라서 버블은 플라즈마 방전의 소스역할을 한다. 두번째로 버블은 전극의 부식을 방지하는 역할을 한다. 전극 부식은 주로 전기분해로 인한 산화반응에 의해 발생하는데 버블을 전극에 오래 머무르게 하면 부식을 방지할 수 있다. 이처럼 액체 플라즈마 시스템에서 버블의 역할들은 상당히 중요하다. 일반적으로 버블은 시스템에 인가하는 전원, 전극 극성 그리고 전압크기에 따라 거동이 달라진다. 시스템에 AC파워를 인가하면 버블은 주파수가 높을수록 전극에서 떨어지는 속도가 빨라지는 특성을 보인다. 핀 전극 극성이 음극일 때는 양극일 때보다 버블이 더 잘 생성된다. 또한 인가전압크기에 따라 거동이 달라지며 시스템에 같은 전압을 인가하여도 크기가 항상 같지 않고, 거동도 일관성을 보이지 않은 랜덤적인 모습을 보인다. 본 연구에서는 이 랜덤적인 버블의 거동을 정리하고 응용분야에서 중요하게 여기는 히드록실라디칼 생성에 대해 공부하기 위해 염류 용액(saline solution)에 핀(pin)-면(plane) 전극 구조를 설치하여 10Hz 주파수(1% duty cycle)를 가진 0-600V 구형펄스로 실험하였다. 실험을 통한 결과로서 랜덤적인 버블의 거동을 전극에서 버블이 떨어지는 속도와 플라즈마 특성에 따라 슈팅모드(shooting mode)와 유지모드(keeping mode) 2가지 모드로 분류하였다. 슈팅모드에서는 버블이 핀 전극에서 성장하지 못하고 빠른 속도로 떨어지는 모드로 플라즈마 방전이 잘 이루어지지 않는다. 반면 유지모드에서는 버블이 핀 전극에서 떨어지지 않고 지속적으로 성장한다. 이 모드에서는 펄스 시간 동안 하나의 버블로 연속적인 방전이 가능하다. 방전이 일어날 때 발생하는 히드록실라디칼의 생성은 버블 내부의 쉬스와 관련이 있다. 이 라디칼을 만들기 위해서는 높은 에너지가 요구되기 때문에 버블 내부의 쉬스(sheath)에서 만들어진다. 펄스 동안 쉬스는 주로 핀 전극 주변에서 유지되며 히드록실라디칼은 이곳에서 주로 만들어진다. 따라서 버블과 함께 쉬스도 성장하는 버블유지모드에서 슈팅모드보다 히드록실라디칼이 더 많이 생성된다.

The average growth day of 11 maize varieties from planting to silking in the first cropping (FC) was 89.5 days and in the second cropping (SC) was 46.7 days, which was 43 days faster than in the FC. The average 100-kernel weight (100 KW) in the FC was 28.4 g and 18.3 g in the SC, which was approximately 36.4% lower than that in the FC. The average crude oil content of FC was 3.97% and SC was 3.08%, which was about 0.89% lower than that of FC. The composition of stearic and oleic acid was significantly higher in FC, whereas palmitic and linoleic acid were higher in SC; however, linolenic acid was not statistically different between the two crops. The crude oil content was negatively correlated with linoleic acid (FC -0.264^ns, SC -0.504**) and positively correlated with linolenic acid (0.526**). Unsaturated fatty acid (USFA) composition showed a significant difference between FC (83.48%) and SC (82.96%). Total phytosterol content was 598.3 mg/100 g and 701.9 mg/100 g in FC and SC, respectively, and showed significant difference by planting dates. The β-sitosterol content showed no statistical difference between the planting dates, but campesterol and stigmasterol were significantly higher in SC than in FC. Therefore, it was considered that the temperature condition during the ripening period affects the 100 KW of maize, and this leads to the variation in phytosterol content. However, among phytosterols, β-sitosterol was relatively little affected by the planting dates. USFA composition showed a significantly negative correlation with phytosterol content. Considering the results, the relatively high phytosterol content in SC was mainly because of the delay in progress of starch accumulation as daily air temperature decreased from the middle of the ripening period, whereas progress of phytosterol accumulation in the maize kernel was considered relatively faster than that of starch accumulation.

The use of soft magnetic materials have been increasing in the various industrial fields according to the increasing demand for high performance, automatic, miniaturing equipments in the recent our life. In this study, we investigated the effect of factors on the core loss and magnetic properties of electrical steel and soft magnetic composites. Furthermore, we reviewed the major efforts to reduce the core loss and improve the soft magnetic properties in the two main soft magnetic materials. Domain purification which results from reduced density of defects in cleaner electrical steels is combined with large grains to reduce hysteresis loss. The reduced thickness and the high electrical conductivity reduce the eddy current component of loss. Furthermore, the coating applied to the surface of electrical steel and texture control lead to improve high permeability and low core loss. There is an increasing interest in soft magnetic composite materials because of the demand for miniaturization of cores for power electronic applications. The SMC materials have a broad range of potential applications due to the possibility of true 3-D electromagnetic design and higher frequency operation. Grain size, sintering temperature, and the degree of porosity need to be carefully controlled in order to optimize structure-sensitive properties such as maximum permeability and low coercive force. The insulating coating on the powder particles in SMCs eliminates particle-to-particle eddy current paths hence minimizing eddy current losses, but it reduces the permeability and to a small extent the saturation magnetization. The combination of new chemical composition with optimum powder manufacturing processes will be able to result in improving the magnetic properties in soft magnetic composite materials, too.

This study investigates the effect of wrist guards equipped with electronic muscle stimulation on reducing wrist pain and improving wrist function of actual lure fishing participants. This study combined conductive fabrics by selecting two products of wrist guards that can be used in lure fishing, which requires holding fishing rods with hands for a long time. It was conducted on ten healthy men aged 35 to 45, and the selection conditions were selected for those who did not have a history of surgery on the wrist and are currently enjoying lure fishing as a hobby. The experimental movement was performed 100 times before each experiment to cause delayed muscle pain to cause wrist fatigue when lure fishing was performed with the operation of grip strength and range of motion. As a result of this study, it was found that pain reduction, range of motion, and grip strength were improved when electrical stimulation was applied after wearing a wrist band in the form of a wrist wrap and semi-gloves. The conclusion of this study was that when electrical stimulation was applied to the wrist guards, the effect of improving the fatigue and function of the wrist could be confirmed through experiments. Through this study, it is expected that wearing electronic muscle stimulation wrist guards will have a significant effect on preventing wrist injuries and improving functional recovery for lure fishing participants.

전세계는 $CO_2$ 규제강화와 에너지의 효율적 사용에 대한 사회적, 경제적 요구가 증대되면서 친환경 에너지 설비와 지능형 전력망(smart grid)가 크게 예상되고 있다. 이에 따라 기존 내연기관에 근거한 발전산업 및 자동차 산업은 필연적으로 청정에너지 기반의 전기에너지로 점진적으로 대체될 것으로 판단된다. 따라서, 청정 발전 시스템의 보급 확대와 기존 에너지의 효율적 사용을 위해서 2차전지 기반의 전력저장 기술과 연료전지 기반의 분산발전 기술이 향후 미래에너지 산업의 근간이 되는 중요한 기술들로 부상하게 되었다. 아연/공기전지는 현재는 연료전지 개념의 1차전지에 기술수준이 머물러 있지만 향후 미래에는 기존의 리튬이온전지의 낮은 에너지밀도를 극복할 수 있는 미래 2차전지 기술의 하나로 평가받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 연료전지 개념의 아연/공기전지에 대하여 기존의 수소연료전지 기반의 분산발전 분야에 적용한다면 약 1/10 이하의 가격으로 조기에 시장진입이 가능할 것으로 판단하여 사전 타당성 연구 및 대면적화를 위한 기초 설계인자 연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과, 소형 단전지부터 약 800cm2까지의 대면적 단전지까지 대면적화를 위한 기초연구를 실시하였으며, 4개의 cell로 구성된 최고출력 90W급 전해질 순환형 미니스택 시스템을 구성하여 발전시스템으로서의 가능성과 문제점 등을 도출하였다. 이러한 시험결과를 바탕으로 25개의 cell로 구성된 약 1kW 급 스택을 설계하여 향후 소형 발전시스템을 제작하고자 하였다.

The vehicle collision speed in mid and high range can be checked by EDM(Event Driven memory) data recorded when the air bag works. But it's difficult to estimate the low speed of vehicle collision. And estimating the speed is important because the injury level can be changed by the impact speed. The study proposed an estimating algorithm by analysing the images recorded in car blackbox instrument. Low speed rear collision accidents simulated with wire winding motor for various vehicle types. The study estimated the impact speed with the ratio of the distance change between two vehicles and the length change of the number plate of front vehicle. The closer the vehicles are, the larger the plate length is. You can estimate the impact speed with the ratio. The impact speed is calculated with the initial distance for a specific length of number plate in the algorithm. The results can be applied to the linear rear collision because the angle of impact was not considered in this study.

The Electrocoagulation-Flotation (ECF) process has great potential in wastewater treatment. ECF technology is effective in the removal of colloidal particles, oil-water emulsion, organic pollutants such as microalgae, and heavy metals. Numerous studies have been conducted on ECF; however, many of them used a conventional plate-type aluminum anode. In this study, we determined the effect of changing operational parameters such as power supply time, applied current, NaCl concentration, and pH on the turbidity removal efficiency of kaoline. We also determined the effects of different electrolyte types (NaCl, $MgSO_4$, $CaCl_2$, $Na_2SO_4$, and tap water), as well as the differences caused by using a plate-type and mesh-type aluminum anode, on the turbidity removal efficiency. The results showed that the optimal values of ECF time, applied current, NaCl concentration, and pH were 5 min, 0.35 A, 0.4 g/L NaCl in distilled water, and pH 7, respectively. The results also revealed that the turbidity removal efficiency of kaoline in different electrolytes decreased in the following sequence, given the same conductivity: tap water > $CaCl_2$ > $MgSO_4$ > NaCl > $Na_2SO_4$. The turbidity removal efficiency of the mesh-type aluminum anode was significantly greater than the plate-type aluminum anode.

This experimental design and response surface methodology (RSM) have been applied to the investigation of the electrocoagulation/flotation of dye wastewater. The electrocoagulation/flotation reactions were mathematically described as a function of parameters current (A), NaCl concentration (B), initial RhB concentration (C) and time (D) being modeled by use of the central composite design (CCD). The application of RSM using the CCD yielded the following regression equation, which is an empirical relationship between the RhB removal (%) and test variables in RhB removal (%) = $-300.42+129.21{\cdot}Current+46.99{\cdot}NaCl-0.11{\cdot}RhB-+43.71{\cdot}Time-5.67{\cdot}Current{\cdot}NaCl-3.18{\cdot}Current{\cdot}Time-2.41{\cdot}NaCl{\cdot}Time-19.79{\cdot}Current^2-2.27{\cdot}NaCl^2-1.59{\cdot}Time^2$. the model predictions agreed well with the experimentally observed result ($R^{2}=0.9728$). The estimated ridge of maximum response and optimal conditions for RhB removal (%) using canonical analysis was 99.4% (A: 1,77 A, NaCl concentration: 2.23 g/L, RhB concentration: 56.12 mg/L, Time: 9.98 min). To confirm this optimum condition, three additional experiments were performed and RhB removal (%) were within range of 86.87% (95% PI low)~111.93% (95% PI high) obtained.

The removal of turbidity from $TiO_2$ wastewater by an electrocoagulation/flotation process was studied in a batch reactor. The response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to evaluate the simple and combined effects of the three main independent parameters, current, NaCl dosage and initial pH of the $TiO_2$ solution on the turbidity removal efficiency, and to optimize the operating conditions of the treatment process. The reaction of electrocoagulation/flotation was modeled by use of the Box-Behnken method, which was used for the fitting of a 2nd order response surface model. The application of RSM yielded the following regression equation, which is an empirical relationship between the turbidity removal efficiency of $TiO_2$ wastewater and test variables in uncoded unit: Turbidity removal (%)=69.76+59.76Current+11.98NaCl+4.67pH+5.00Current${\times}$pH-160.11$Current^2-0.34pH^2$. The optimum current, NaCl dosage and pH of the $TiO_2$ solution to reach maximum removal rates were found to be 0.186 A, 0.161 g/l and 7.599, respectively. This study clearly showed that response surface methodology was one of the most suitable method to optimize the operating conditions for maximizing the turbidity removal. Graphical response surface and contour plots were used to locate the optimum point.
