As cathode materials of LiMn2O4-based lithium-ion secondary batteries, Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 (M=Ni and Co, $\delta$=0, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2) materials which Co and Ni are substituted for Mn, were syntehsized by the solid state reaction at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. No second phases were formed in Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 system with substitution of Co. However, substitution of Ni caued to form a second phase of NiO when its composition exceeded over 0.2 of $\delta$ in Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4. As the results of charging-discharging test, the maximum capacity of Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 appeared in $\delta$=0.1 for both Co and Ni. Also, Li(Mn1-$\delta$M$\delta$)2O4 electrode showed higher capacity and better cycle performance than LiMn2O4.

In this paper, a control method of ozone generator for a tiny deodorizer is proposed, and also a cooling technique is described which is cooling down the flowing air gap into a silent discharger to $2[^{\circ}C]$ to generate ozone of high density and diffusing power. As the digital control system for this method, a double feedback loop is designed which detects the voltage and current of equivalent capacitor of the discharger and compensates for the poor power waveform caused by the noise at high discharging frequency. During the plant modeling of this system, computing time factor is considered as a unique parameter of the power system to improve the respond characteristics with regard to fluctuating load and to replenish the computing time delay of the controller. Through the experiment, sinusoidal input current for discharger can be acquired and all the effectiveness of this accurate control system over unstable ozone discharger are proved.

This study is aimed to improve safety of ladle in the metal products manufacturing industry. Burns may occur from spills, spatters or eruptions of hot metal from ladles during pouring or transporting. According to the statistics of occupational accidents about the ladle, many victims were exposed to or contacted with extreme temperatures. The many fatal injuries occurred as a result of unexpected discharging of molten metal due to tipping over ladles. To prevent ladles from turning over, the trunnion axis shall be located below the center of gravity of the ladle at all operating condition. For this purpose, the equation is proposed to calculate the minimum location of a trunnion axis for definite static stability when tilting.

Battery cells are connected in parallel to enlarge the system capacity. However, cell inconsistency may reduce the overall system capacity and cause the over-charging or over-discharging issue. This paper proposes a SOC-based sequencing equalizer for parallel-connected battery configuration that uses the ANFIS (adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system) algorithm to make the switching decision. Depend on the load current and the SOC (state-of-charge) rate of cells, the switching decision is made to equalize the SOC of the battery cells. The simulation results show that the system capacity is maximized and the controller is adaptive for a large number of parallel-connected in dynamic load profile.

In Korea and Japan, dried oak mushrooms are classified into 12 to 16 different categories based on its external visual quality. And grading used to be done manually by the human expert and is limited to the randomly sampled oak mushrooms. Visual features of dried oak mushrooms dominate its quality and are distributed over both sides of the gill and the cap. The 2nd prototype computer vision based automatic grading and sorting system for dried oak mushrooms was developed based on the 1st prototype. Sorting function was improved and overall system for grading was simplified to one stage grading instead of two stage grading by inspecting both front and back sides of mushrooms. Neuro-net based side(gill or cap) recognition algorithm of the fed mushroom was adopted. Grading was performed with both images of gill and cap using neural network. A real time simultaneous discharge algorithm, which is good for objects randomly fed individually and for multi-objects located along a series of discharge buckets, was developed and implemented to the controller and the performance was verified. Two hundreds samples chosen from 10 samples per 20 grade categories were used to verify the performance of each unit such as feeding, reversing, grading, and discharging unites. Test results showed that success rates of one-line feeding, reversing, grading, and discharging functions were 93%, 95%, 94%, and 99% respectively. The developed prototype revealed successful performance such as the approximate sorting capability of 3,600 mushrooms/hr per each line i.e. average 1sec/mushroom. Considering processing time of approximate 0.2 sec for grading, it was desired to reduce time to reverse a mushroom to acquire the reversed surface image.

V2G (Vehicle to Grid) technology for an EV (Electric Vehicle) has been assumed as so promising in a near future for its useful energy resource concept but still yet to be developed around the world for specific service purposes through various R&BD projects. Basically, V2G returns power stored in vehicle at a cheaper or unused time to the grid at more expensive or highly peaked time, and is accordingly supposed to provide such roles like peak shaving or load levelling according to customer load curve, frequency regulation or ancillary reserves, and balancing power fluctuation to grid from the weather-sensitive renewable sources like wind or solar generations. However, it has recently been debated over its prominent usage as diffusing EVs and the required charging/discharging infrastructure, partially for its addition of EV ownership costs with more frequent charging/discharging events and user inconvenience with a relative long-time participation in the previously engaged V2G program. This study suggests that a Korean DR (Demand Response) service integrated V2G system especially based upon a dynamic charge/pause/discharge scheme newly proposed to ISO/IEC 15118 rev. 2 can deal with these concerns with more profitable business model, while fully making up for the additional component (ex. battery) and service costs. It also indicates that the optimum economic, environmental, and grid impacts can be simulated for this V2G-DR service particularly designed for EV aggregators (V2G service providers) by proposing a specific V2G engagement program for the mediated DR service providers and the distributed EV owners.

Power system in satellite shall produce stable outputs for successful mission accomplishment. However, unstability in overall electrical system is caused in a case where a load having a power profile with high-powered and micro-cycled pulse shape is connected to a satellite power system. In order to resolve this anomaly, "power system stabilization method using a battery" featured with simplicity can be applied, but there is a constraint to operate a battery in its normal operational conditions. In this paper, an effective interface structure for "power system stabilization method using a battery" is suggested and a battery protection algorithm for preventing over-charging and over-discharging is discussed.
