Solid waste production increases due to population and consumption increments. Landfill is the ultimate destination for all kinds of municipal solid waste; and is the most convenient waste disposal method in developing countries. To minimize investment and operational costs and society's opposition towards locating landfills nearby, proper landfill sizing and siting are essential. In this study, solid waste forecasting using Autoregressive Integrating Moving Average (ARIMA) was integrated with government future plans and waste composition to estimate the required landfill area for the state of Selangor, Malaysia. Landfill siting criteria were then prioritized based on expert's preferences. To minimize ambiguity and the uncertainty of the criteria prioritizing process, the expert's preferences were treated using integrated Median Ranked Sample Set (MRSS) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) models. The results show that the required landfill area is 342 hectares and the environmental criteria are the most important; with a priority equal to 48%.

Polymer electrolytes - solid polymeric membranes with dissolved salts - are being intensively studied for use in all-solid-state lithium-metal-polymer consumer electronic device. The low ionic conductivity at room temperature of existing polymer electrolytes, however, has seriously hindered the development of such batteries for many applications. The incorporation of salts molten at room temperature (room temperature ionic liquids or RTILs) into polymer electrolytes may be the necessary solution to overcoming the inherent ionic conductivity limitations of 'dry' polymer electrolytes.

고분자를 기반으로 하는 고체 전해질은 수퍼커패시터, 배터리, 센서, 액추에이터 등 다양한 전기화학 소자에 응용이 가능한 소재로써, 기존 고분자 전해질의 낮은 이온전도도를 향상시키기 위해서 다양한 이온성 액체 기반의 고체 전해질에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행 중에 있다. 이온성 액체의 높은 전기적 특성 및 전기화학적, 열적 안정성과 고분자의 우수한 기계적인 강도를 활용한 젤 상태의 고체 전해질인 이온젤은 차세대 웨어러블 및 플렉시블 전자소자에 응용되어 연구되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 이온성 액체와 고분자 기반의 고체 전해질을 제조하고 특성을 분석하여 탄소나노복합체 기반의 전극에 적용하여 다양한 전자소자에 응용이 가능한 이온전도도 및 안정성이 향상된 이온성 액체 기반의 고체 전해질을 개발하고자 한다. 제조된 고체전해질은 전기화학적 임피던스법을 이용하여 이온 전도도를 측정하여 보았으며 이온성 액체를 첨가하여 제조한 고체전해질의 이온 전도도가 1.26 × 10^-1 S/cm 로 확인되었다. 또한 제조된 고체 전해질을 이용하여 전고체형 수퍼커패시터를 제조하여 전기화학적 특성을 비교하여 보았으며, 수퍼커패시터의 전기화학적 특성 역시 이온성 액체를 첨가하여 제조된 고체 전해질을 사용하였을 때 향상된 전기화학적 특성을 나타내었다.

The lifetime of a solid-state drive (SSD) is limited because of the number of program and erase cycles allowed on its NAND flash blocks. Data cannot be overwritten in an SSD, leading to an out-of-place update every time the data are modified. This result in two copies of the data: the original copy and a modified copy. This phenomenon is known as write amplification and adversely affects the endurance of the memory. In this study, we address the issue of reducing wear leveling through efficient handling of write requests. This results in even wearing of all the blocks, thereby increasing the endurance period. The focus of our work is to logically divert the write requests, which are concentrated to limited blocks, to the less-worn blocks and then measure the maximum number of write requests that the memory can handle. A memory without the proposed algorithm wears out prematurely as compared to that with the algorithm. The main feature of the proposed algorithm is to delay out-of-place updates till the threshold is reached, which results in a low overhead. Further, the algorithm increases endurance by a factor of the threshold level multiplied by the number of blocks in the memory.

We have carried out the Glaser oxidative coupling polymerizations of diethynyldiphenylsilane, diethynylmethylphenylsilane,diethynylmethyloctylsilane, and 1,2-diethynyl-1,1,2,2-tetramethyldisilane to afford polycarbosilanes containing diethynyl and organosilane groups in the main chain, such as poly(diethynyldiphenylsilane), poly(diethynylmethylphenylsilane), poly(diethynylmethyloctylsilane), and poly(1,2-diethynyl-1,1,2,2-tetramethyldisilane), respectively. These obtained materials are almost insoluble in common organic solvents such as $CHCl_3$ and THF probably due to the presence of a rigid rod diacetylene group along the polymer main chain. Therefore, the polymers were characterized using several spectroscopic methods in solid state. FTIR spectra of all the polymeric materials show that the characteristic $C \equiv C$ stretching frequencies appear at 2147-2154 $cm ^{-1}$, in particular. The polymers in the solid state exhibit that the strong maximum excitation peaks appear at 260-283 nm and the strong maximum fluorescence emission bands at 367-412 nm, especially. Thermogravimetric analysis of the materials shows that about 55-68% of the initial polymer weights remain at 400 ${^{\circ}C}$ in nitrogen.

A field theoretical approach to deformation and fracture of solid-state material is outlined, and its application to diagnosis of deformational status of metal specimens is discussed. Being based on a fundamental physical principle known as local symmetry, this approach is intrinsically scale independent, and capable of describing all stages of deformation on the same theoretical foundation. This capability enables us to derive criteria that can be used to diagnose transitions from the elastic to plastic regime, and the plastic to fracturing regime. For practical applications of these criteria, an optical interferometric technique known as electronic speckle-pattern interferometry is proved to be quite powerful; it is able to visualize the criteria as a whole image of the object on a real-time basis without numerical processing. It is demonstrated that this method is able to reveal loading hysteresis as well.

Research on down conversion phosphor materials is the key for the development of solid state lighting (SSL). Especially finding alternative red phosphor for white LEDs based on blue or NUV LEDs are important research task. Under this view, we have synthesized a series of $Eu^{3+}$ substituted $La_2W_{2-x}Mo_xO_9$ (x = 0 ~ 2, insteps of 0.1) red phosphor and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence. XRD results reveal a phase transition from triclinic to cubic structure for $x\;{\geq}\;0$. All the compositions show broad charge transfer band due to charge transfer from oxygen to tungsten/molybdenum and red emission due to $Eu^{3+}$ ions. Select compositions show high red emission intensity compared to the commercial red phosphor under NUV/blue ray excitation. Hence, this candidate can be possible red emitting phosphors for white LEDs.

Alinite-Calciumchloroaluminate system clinker was synthesized from solid state waste. The raw materials were municipal incineration ash, sewage sludge, limestone and clay. ecocement was prepared by the mixing of synthesized clinker and optimum amount of gypsum and its hydrolysis characteristic was investigated. X-ray diffraction, conduction calorimeter and reflecting microscope were used to analyze structural and physical properties. The main phase of clinker were alinite, calcium chloroaluminate. $C_2$S, $C_3$S. From the results of hardening time, hydration reactivity of synthesized all samples was faster than that of ordinary portland cement.

This paper describes an all solid-state switch pulse generator for various applications where square pulse voltage is required. The pulse generator produces various voltage pulses: voltage $5{\sim}100kV$. current $10{\sim}200A$, pulse width $1{\sim}10{\mu}sec$, repetition rate up to 500Hz. The output power is the combination of these parameters up to 10kW. It consists of a DC-DC converter and several pulse generating modules which are connected in series to obtain higher pulse voltage. Each module contains semiconductor switches (IGBT's), energy storage capacitors and control units to trigger switches. The structure and operational principle are described and the protection circuit for reliable operation is suggested. Experimental results show that the pulse generator can be used for applications with nonlinear loads.

Calcium phosphate ceramic composites, consisting of hydroxyapatite(HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP), were fabricated by solid state sintering in order to investigate the effect of their initial compositions on microstructural evolutions and biocompatibility. All the sintered calcium phosphate ceramics exhibited almost full densification, while the grain growth of the composites increased with an increasing TCP content in the green body. The TCP phase transformed into a Ca-deficient HA phase during sintering via the diffusion of calcium ions from the HA phase into the TCP phase. The phases formed in the composites significantly affected the biocompatibility of the composites. The HA-matrix ceramic composites with TCP had a better cellular response than the pure HA ceramics, presumably due to the newly formed Ca-deficient HA.
