The transient response of PEMFC (proton exchange membrane fuel cell) is important criteria in the application of PEM fuel cell to real automotive system. In this work, using a transparent unit PEM fuel cell, the transient response and cathode flooding during load change are investigated. The cell voltage is acquired according to the current density change($0.3Acm^2$ to $0.6A/cm^2$) under various stoichiometry conditions and different flooding intensities, Also the cathode gas channel images are obtained by CCD imaging system simultaneously. The different level of undershoots appeared at the moment of load changes under different cathode stoichiometries and flooding intensities. It takes about 1s that the product water comes up onto the flow channel so that oxygen supply is temporarily blocked which causes voltage loss in that "undershoot". The correlation of the dynamic behavior with stoichiometry and cathode flooding is induced from the results of these experiments.

In this paper, the issue of the differential ring oscillator in designing low phase noise is linearity improvement of delay cell's load resistor. A novel differential delay cell that improves on the Maneatis load is proposed. The linearity improvement of load resistor results in lower phase noise in ring oscillator. For comparison of the phase noise characteristics, Ali Hajimiri's phase noise model is used. In order to have a low ISF(impulse sensitivity function), it is important to have a symmetry between rise time and fall time of oscillation waveform. The ISF value of ing oscillator based on the proposed delay cell is lower than that of the existing ring oscillators. Due to this result, the phase noise is improved by 2~3dBc/Hz for the same power dissipation and oscillation frequency.

Fuel cell (FC) distributed generation (DG) is gradually becoming more attractive to mainstream electricity users as capacity improves and costs decrease. New technologies including inverters are becoming available to provide a uniform standard interconnection of DGs with an electric power system. Some of the operating conflicts and the effect of DG on power quality are addressed and investigated through simulations on a real distribution network with an FC power plant. The results of these simulations have proved load tracking capability following the real and reactive power change of the load and have shown the flow of overcurrent from an FC power plant during the ground fault of a distribution line.

The optimal conditions and properties for the immobilization of marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2 have been determined. For the high productioon of biosurfactant, Na-alginate, PVA, modified PVA were used as a carrier. The optimal emulsifying activity on immobilized Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2 showed 1036Unit (about 2.2g/L biosurfactant) in Basal salt medium(B.S.M.) at $25^{\circ}C$, 100rpm. Ca-alginate was selected the optimal bead among PVA, modified PVA and Ca-alginate. The optimal cell load in alginate bead was 10 gCWW/100g carrier. As the results of incubation of immobilized 5g Ca-alginate bead (conditions; 3% alginate, bead diameter: 2.3mm, 10% cell load) in 50m1 production medium, The emulsifying activity of 1407Unit, about 3.0g/L biosurfactant was obtained from immobilized cell after cultivation of 92hr at $25^{\circ}C$, 100rpm.

In this paper, we studied the long term durability estimation for crystalline photovoltaic module while exposing to mechanical stress. Solar cell and PV module have many different kinds of stresses from cell to module fabrication. For this reason, some solar cell shows micro crack that decrease crystallization. In here, we expose artificial mechanical load on surface of PV module. Through this, the periodic external force on PV module might give an negative effect. The further analysis is described in the following paper.

A DC-DC Non-Isolated Three-Port Cuk-Cuk (NI-TPCC) converter for interfacing renewable energy sources (RESs) such as Fuel Cell (FC) and Photovoltaic (PV) energy with a DC load is presented in this paper. It features single-stage power conversion from both of the input ports to the load port. The proposed NI-TPCC converter is designed based on the classical Cuk converter. The operational modes and power flow are analyzed in the continuous conduction mode (CCM), and the relationships among the port voltages are derived. Continuous currents in all three ports with less ripple enhance the performance of a fuel cell and its operating life. Furthermore, the output inductor is shared with both of the input ports, which reduces the number of active and passive components. The effectiveness of the designed NI-TPCC converter has been validated through simulation and experimental results.

In case of high capacity load force as millions of tons, it is difficult to measure the force with load cell. But we can measure and calculate the force with applied pressure and ram area of hydraulic jack. The 5,200 ton compression load tester is composed of thirteen hydraulic jack with 400 ton capacity. This paper explains the method of measuring the vertical compression load and provides characteristics of unit jack, and displacement of upper structure under maximum load condition.

In this study, the boundary non-linear analysis of the sky bridge subjected to walking load and running load is performed. The sky bridge is installed in the mid-story between two buildings and the walking load and running load induced by pedestrians are measured by load cell. LRB is modeled as a non-linear hysteresis model to accurately represent the behavior of LRB. For the serviceability evaluation of sky bridge, the acceleration responses of sky bridge are analyzed based on ISO 2631-2 and the velocity response are analyzed based on standards Bachmann &Amann. In serviceability evaluation of this sky bridge, the pedestrian can not perceive the vibration except for resonance running loads consequently. Therefore, it is concluded that this sky bridge haven't problem in the serviceability.
