This paper presents the design method of the DC/DC converter using flat transformer which is suitable for midium or large capacity and high density power supply. Flat transformer module is composed and manufactured of multi-transformers in parallel and has a number of parallel single turn secondary windings. Therefore, its leakage inductance is highly decreased and it is more suitable for high frequency operation than conventional one. In this paper, we manufactured and tested 750W AC/DC converter with variable output powers to verify the performance of the flat transformer.

Three component $Ag_2S-PbS-PbWO_4$ electrodes have been prepared and evaluated for sensitivity to tungstate. The 51.71 : 16.64 : 31.65(w/w%) composition is superior in terms of potentiometric response, stability, rapidity of response and reproducibility. Testing was done over the concentration range $10^{-1}~10^{-4}M WO_4^{2-}$ in $0.1F-NH_4Ac-NH_4OH$ buffer at pH 8.00 with constant ionic strength. The quality of response is similar to that of corresponding phosphate-sensing electrode. Many common ions interfere.

Competent cell transformation of B. subtilis AC819 was carried out using phenotypic protease-defective(Npr-) DNA of B. subtilis MT-2. An obtained transformant, designated B. subtilis HL-1, was obtained by homologous DNA recombination. Phenotypes of B. subtilis HL-1 were characterized histidine requirement streptomycin-resistance, tetracyclin resistance and non-producing protease. Protoplast transformation frequency of B. subtilis HL-1 by plasmid pUB110 was higher than that of B. subtilis MT-2. From this result, B. subtilis HL-1 is useful for protease gene transformation and thermostable protease gene cloning as a host.

Non-structural elements are vulnerable to earthquake ground motion. In this study, an experimental study for the electrical non-structural element was performed using tri-axial shaking table tests. A 100kVA UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply system) was used as the test specimen. The test specimen was anchored to the concrete slab using the conventional installation detail. The input acceleration were generated in accordance with ICC-ES AC156 code. Scale factors of the input acceleration with respect to the required response spectrum defined in ICC-ES AC156 were from 25% to 600%. Based on the test results, damage and dynamic characteristics of UPS were evaluated and analyzed including natural frequency, damping ratio, acceleration time history response, dynamic amplification factor and relative displacement.

An aim of this study is to study the correlation between rheological properties and sedimentation of capsules in aqueous polymer solution with low viscosity. Rheological properties of aqueous polymer solutions were controlled by carbomer (C), acylate/C10-30 alkyl acylate crosspolymer (AC), and ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP copolymer (AV). Small amount of polymer C solution had the highest viscosity and yield stress of polymer AV solution was higher than that of polymer C solution in the same viscosity when the concentration of polymer AV exceeded $0.35 wt\%$. Each aqueous polymer solution was tested and the results showed that as viscosity and yield stress increased, the sedimentation ratio of capsules decreased. The viscoelasticity data also showed the same tendency in a shear stress range of 0.1 to 2.0 Pa. These results demonstrated that the rheological properties of polymer solutions had a strong correlation with the sedimentation of capsules. When polymer I and AV were used, there was a synergistic effect and the correlation between rheological properties and sedimentation of capsules was very complicated. It was assumed that the characteristics of polymer structure and interaction between polymers caused this phenomena.

In this study, with the awareness of the limitations set in the currently operated calculations of holding power and the holding power coefficient of anchors of naval ships due to its simple application of a specific value, various factors that impact the holding power and its coefficient were verified based on existing data analysis of literature research and numerous experiment results from anchor manufacturers, research institutes and academic community in order to overcome the aforementioned limitations. In addition, holding power and holding power coefficient were compared and analyzed by the shape of anchors. As a result, we came to know that the holding power of AC-14 type anchor is stronger than that of ASS type anchor or U.S. Navy Standard type anchor which makes it possible to reduce the weight of the anchor and therefore ease the process of naval shipbuilding. Furthermore, we confirmed the fact that U.S. Navy Standard type anchor does not react sensitively to the weight change of the anchor. Lastly, we found out that Danforth type anchor's holding power coefficient is in inverse proportion to the weight. Moreover, instructions for managing anchor are arranged easily for your information. The results of this study is expected to provide anchor - operating naval crew with a reliable theoretical basis pertaining to an anchor's holding power and its coefficient and contribute much for the safety of their act of anchoring.

Purpose: The current study was performed to compare the difference in binocular visual function depending on variable background colors at near work. Method: Fifty four adults (18 males, 34 females) who consented to the present study and had no ocular disease, ocular surgery history, strabismus and amblyopia with normal binocular vision were participated into this study. The subjects were asked to read the novels with black letter printed on white, red, green and blue background for 15 min. Then, their heterophoria, AC/A ratio, near point of convergence, accommodation facility, relative accommodation and vergence were measured before and after reading. The difference of measurements were compared. Result: Overall heterophoria was tended to decrease with regardless of background color. AC/A ratio showed a tendency of increase after reading the novels with all backgrounds except white background. Near point of convergence was significantly increased compared to before reading at all background color. Accommodative facility of dominant and non-dominant eyes were also significantly increased after reading however, binocular accommodative facility showed a tendency of decrease. Negative relative accommodation also decreased at all background colors however, the change of positive relative accommodation was not significantly different. In case of vergence, there was significant difference in break point of far BO and recovery point of far BI by the wavelength of background color. Conclusions: From the results, it was known there is convergence change depending on the wavelength of light even though same amount of accommodation and convergence is required when doing near work for certain period. Thus, it can be suggested that the adjustment of the near working environment which perception of various color was required, should be conducted according to the main wavelength.

In this paper, a novel nonlinear control method of the CVCF(constant voltage and constant frequency) output voltage for the three-phase PWM inverter with LC output filters is proposed. A nonlinear modeling including the output LC filters is linearized by feedback linearization theory, the controllers of which can be designed based on a linear control theory. It is applied to the DC/AC power conversion of the PWM inverter for stand-alone wind power generation system. It has been verified by the experimental results that the proposed control scheme gives high dynamic responses at load variation as well as a zero steady-state error.

In this study a cantilevered carbon nanotube(CNT) switch was investigated with the linear and the nonlinear structural models incorporating the electrostatic force and van der Waals interactions between the CNT and ground surface. Due to the applied voltage and van der Waals interactions the CNT deforms statically and dynamically and finally pull into the surface. When the nonlinear model is considered in case of the relatively large gap between the CNT and the surface, the static pull-in voltage was increased due to the nonlinear hardening effect. Also the dynamic response was investigated with the different external dc and ac voltages. The CNT shows various dynamic behaviors and instabilities including dynamic pull-in. Based on this study, further research on the dynamic and nonlinear stability of CNT nanodevices should be requested to develop the new type of nano switches or nano-memory.

In this paper, characteristics of the ac and dc flashover voltage in the horizontal air gap of a needle-needle electrode system were investigated when the combustion flame was present near the high-voltage electrode. In order to examine the flashover phenomena and the corona inception voltages caused by flame we measured the voltage and current waveforms when the corona and the flashover was occurred. We also observed, as increasing the applied voltages, the deflection or fluctuation phenomena in the shape of flames caused by the corona wind and the coulomb's force. As the results of an experimental investigation, we found that the reduction of flashover voltages, in comparison with the no-flame case, are 62.7[%] for k=1.0, 34.2[%] for h=5[cm], 27.3[%] for h=7[cm] and 21.4[%] for h=9[cm] when ac voltage is applied.
