Recently $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$ has been consistently examined and investigated by scientists because of its high lithium storage capacity, which exceeds beyond the conventional theoretical capacity based on conventional chemical concepts. Consequently, $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$ is considered as one of the most promising cathode candidates for next generation in Li rechargeable batteries. Yet the mechanism and the origin of the overcapacity have not been clarified. Previously, many authors have demonstrated simultaneous oxygen evolution during the first delithiation. However, it may only explain the high capacity of the first charge process, and not of the subsequent cycles. In this work, we report a clarified interpretation of the structural evolution of $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$, which is the key element in understanding its anomalously high capacity. We identify how the structural evolution of $Li_{1.2}Ni_{0.2}Mn_{0.6}O_2$ occurs upon the electrochemical cycling through careful study of electrochemical profiles, ex-situ X-ray diffraction (XRD), HR-TEM, Raman spectroscopy, and first principles calculation. Moreover, we successfully separated the structural change at subsequent cycles (mainly cation rearrangement) from the first charge process (mainly oxygen evolution with Li extraction) by intentionally synthesizing sample with large particle size. Consequently, the intermediate states of structural evolution could be well resolved. All observations made through various tools lead to the result that spinel-like cation arrangement and lithium environment are created and embedded in layered framework during repeated electrochemical cycling.

최근 프로테오믹스 분야에서 단백질의 추출, 분리기술의 발전과 고성능 질량분석 장비로 인하여 대량으로, 또 빠르게 샘플을 분석하는 것이 가능해짐에 따라서, 한번의 실험으로부터 얻어지는 실험데이타의 양이 대폭 늘어나게 되었다. 따라서 대량의 데이타를 어떻게 처리하여 필요한 정보만을 얻어내는가가 큰 이슈가 되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 데이타 해석과정은 불필요하게 계산자원을 낭비하는 요소를 상당 부분을 포함하고 있고, 이로 인해 데이타 해석 시간이 증가함은 물론, 종종 옳지 않은 해석 결과를 생성함으로써 결과에 대한 신뢰도의 저하를 초래했다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 데이타 해석 과정에서의 문제점을 지적하고, 데이타 처리의 효율을 높임과 동시에 해석 결과의 신뢰도를 제고하기 위한 SIFTER 시스템을 제안한다. SIFTER 시스템은 본격적인 데이타 해석에 앞서, 질량 스펙트럼의 질을 평가하고 하전량을 결정하는 소프트웨어를 제공한다. 탠덤 질량 스펙트럼에 나타나는 단편 이온의 특성을 고려하여 스펙트럼의 질과 하전량을 정확하게 결정하는 방법을 제공함으로써, 데이타 해석에 앞서 스펙트럼의 질이 낮아 해석이 불가능할 것이 분명한 경우 이들을 미리 제거하고 스펙트럼 해석과정에 잘못된 정보가 사용되지 않도록 한다. 결과적으로 데이타 해석과정에서의 효율과 해석결과의 정확성에 있어 대폭적인 개선을 기대할 수 있다.

발사체 추진 시스템에서 Titanium Hydride Potassium Perchlorate (THPP)는 에너지를 인가받으면 gas를 발생시키는 pyrotechnic initiator로써 혹은 NASA Standard Initiator (NSI)의 supplement charge로써 흔히 사용되는 물질이다. 하지만 금속으로 이루어진 복합 화약이 오랫동안 보관이 되면 노화라는 문제에 직면하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 열분석 및 표면분석을 통하여 다양한 습도환경에서 노화된 THPP에 대하여 열역학적 특성의 변화를 확인하였고, 이를 바탕으로 THPP에 대한 전반적인 노화 메커니즘을 구축해내었다. 우선, THPP가 노화됨에 따라 산화제 표면의 균열빈도가 증가하고 길이가 길어졌는데, 이는 열·수분 노화가 공통적으로 산화제의 분해를 초래함을 보여준다. 이때 열 노화된 경우 Viton의 열화 현상이, 수분 노화된 경우 연료의 산화가 더욱 두드러졌다. 또한 실험을 통해 계산된 반응률에 대한 THPP의 화학반응인자의 경우 습도에 따라 크게 달라졌는데, 이는 수분이 THPP의 연소에 상당한 변화를 미쳐 결국에는 수명의 감소로 이어지게 될 것을 시사한다.

Sol-gel method which provides better electrochemical and physiochemical properties compared to the solid-state method was used to synthesize the material of $LiFe_yMn_{2-y}O_4$. Fe was substituted to increase the structural stability so that the effects of the substitution amount and sintering temperature were analyzed. XRD was used for the structural analysis of produced material, which in turn, showed the same cubic spinel structure as $LiMn_2O_4$ despite the substitution of $Fe^{3+}$. During the synthesis of $LiFe_yMn_{2-y}O_4$, as the sintering temperature and the doping amount of Fe(y=0.05, 0.1, 0.2)were increased, grain growth proceeded which in turn, showed a high crystalline and a large grain size, certain morphology with narrow specific surface area and large pore volume distribution was observed. In order to examine the ability for the practical use of the battery, charge-discharge tests were undertaken. When the substitution amount of $Fe^{3+}\;into\;LiMn_2O_4$ increased, the initial discharge capacity showed a tendency to decrease within the region of $3.0\~4.2V$ but when charge-discharge processes were repeated, other capacity maintenance properties turned out to be outstanding. In addition, when the sintering temperature was $800\~850^{\circ}C$, the initial capacity was small but showed very stable cycle performance. According to EVS(electrochemical voltage spectroscopy) test, $LiFe_yMn_{2-y}O_4(y=0,\;0.05,\;0.1,\;0.2)$ showed two plateau region and the typical peaks of manganese spinel structure when the substitution amount of $Fe^{3+}$ increased, the peak value at about 4.15V during the charge-discharge process showed a tendency to decrease. From the previous results, the local distortion due to the biphase within the region near 4.15V during the lithium extraction gave a phase transition to a more suitable single phase. When the transition was derived, the discharge capacity decreased. However the cycle performance showed an outstanding result.

Although many studies on modelling of port competitive situation have been conducted, both theoretical frame and methodology are still very weak. In this study, therefore, a new algorithm called ESD (Extensional System Dynamics) for the evaluation of port competition was presented, and applied to simulate port systems in northeast asia. The detailed objectives of this paper are to develop Unit fort Model by using SD(System Dynamics) method; to develop Competitive Port Model by ESD method; to perform sensitivity analysis by altering parameters, and to propose port development strategies. For these the algorithm for the evaluation of part's competition was developed in two steps. Firstly, SD method was adopted to develop the Unit Port models, and secondly HFP(Hierarchical Fuzzy Process) method was introduced to expand previous SD method. The proposed models were then developed and applied to the five ports - Pusan, Kobe, Yokohama, Kaoshiung, Keelung - with real data on each ports, and several findings were derived. Firstly, the extraction of factors for Unit Port was accomplished by consultation of experts such as research worker, professor, research fellows related to harbor, and expert group, and finally, five factor groups - location, facility, service, cargo volumes, and port charge - were obtained. Secondly, system's structure consisting of feedback loop was found easily by location of representative and detailed factors on keyword network of STGB map. Using these keyword network, feedback loop was found. Thirdly, for the target year of 2003, the simulation for Pusan port revealed that liner's number would be increased from 829 ships to 1,450 ships and container cargo volumes increased from 4.56 million TEU to 7.74 million TEU. It also revealed that because of increased liners and container cargo volumes, length of berth should be expanded from 2,162m to 4,729m. This berth expansion was resulted in the decrease of congested ship's number from 97 to 11. It was also found that port's charge had a fluctuation. Results of simulation for Kobe, Yokohama, Kaoshiung, Keelung in northeast asia were also acquired. Finally, the inter port competition models developed by ESB method were used to simulate container cargo volumes for Pusan port. The results revealed that under competitive situation container cargo volume was smaller than non-competitive situation, which means Pusan port is lack of competitive power to other ports. Developed models in this study were then applied to estimate change of container cargo volumes in competitive relation by altering several parameters. And, the results were found to be very helpful for port mangers who are in charge of planning of port development.

Lithium vanadium phosphate, $Li_3V_2(PO_4)_3$ was prepared by a simple solid state route. It was found that making a fine powder of $Li_3V_2(PO_4)_3$ by the mechanical milling is very effective for increasing the insertion/extraction of lithium from $Li_3V_2(PO_4)_3$ structure. In charge/discharge test, the ball-milled $Li_3V_2(PO_4)_3$ sample exhibited a higher initial discharge capacity of 174 mAh/g in the voltage range of 3.0-4.8 V, compared with pure $Li_3V_2(PO_4)_3$ sample (152 mAh/g). Furthermore, the ball-milled $Li_3V_2(PO_4)_3$ presented not only higher cycle retention rate after 50 cycles, but also better rate capability compared with pure sample in the whole region (0.1-7 C).

A $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ (LNCAO/C) active material composite cathode was coated with carbon. The conductive carbon coating was obtained by addition of surfactant during synthesis. The addition of surfactant led to the formation of an amorphous carbon coating layer on the pristine LNCAO surface. The layer of carbon coating was clearly detected by FE-TEM analysis. In electrochemical performance, although the LNCAO/C showed similar capacity at low C-rate conditions, the rate capability was improved by the form of the carbon coating at high current discharge state. After 40 cycles of charge-discharge processes, the capacity retention of LNCAO/C was better than that of LNCAO. The carbon coating is effectively protected the surface structure of the pristine LNCAO during Li insertion-extraction.
