The thermal properties, morphology, mechanical properties and gas permeability of the blends of poly (amic acid) (PAA) and poly (o-hydroxyamides) (PHAs) having pendant group was investigated. The 5% weight loss and major weight loss of the b)ends occurred in the ranges of $348{\sim}407^{\circ}C$ and $589{\sim}615^{\circ}C$ upon a heating process. After a thermical annealing, the tensile strength and initial modulus of blends increased $3.7{\sim}52.9%$ and $34.4{\sim}70%$ from the value of pure PAA, respectively. Especially the tensile strength and modulus of the PAA/MP-PHA=9/1 showed the highest values (97.5 MPa and 2.67 GPa, respectively), which were 53 and 70% higher than those of pure PAA. The fine PHA domains were found to be uniformly dispersed. The interfacial adhesion between PAA and PHA was identified to be good. The gas permeabilities of PAA/M-PHA blend increased with M-PHA contents.

Five microorganisms capable of degrading an aromatic medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate ($PHA_{MCL}$), poly(3-hydroxy-5-phenylvalerate) (PHPV), were isolated from wastewater-treatment sludge. Among the isolates, JS02 showed degrading activity consistantly during several transfers. The isolate JS02 could hydrolyze another aromatic MCL copolyester, poly(3-hydroxy-5-phenoxyvalerate-co-3-hydroxy-7-phenoxyheptanoate), ［P(5POHV-co-7POHH)］, and other short-chain-length PHAs ($PHA_{SCL}) such as poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) ［P3(HB)］, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) ［P(3 HB-co-4 HB)］, and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) ［P(3HB-co-3HV)］ with relatively low activity. The culture supernatant of JS02 showed hydrolyzing activity for the p-nitrophenyl esters of fatty acids.

This paper presents the digital control of single-phase power factor correction(PFC) converter which has the variable gain according to the condition of inner control loop error. Generally the gain of inner current control loop in single-stage PFC converter has a constant magnitude. This has a bad influence on the power factor because current loop doesn't operate smoothly in the condition that input voltage is low In particular a digital controller has more time delay than an analog controller and degrades This drops the phase margin of the total digital PFC system,. It causes the problem that the gain of current control loop isn't increased enough. In addition the oscillation happens in the peak value of the input voltage open loop PFC system gain changes according to ac input voltage. These aspects make the design of the digital PFC controller difficult The digital PFC controller presented in this paper has a variable gain of current control loop according to input voltage. The 1kW converter was used to verify the efficiency of the digital PFC controller.

Reactant mixing has a critical role in ensuring reformate quality and an important design objective is to achieve sufficiently complete mixture of reactants. For that purpose it is required to understand the coupled transport-kinetics phenomena in the mixing region. Three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model was developed and validated in previous works. The mixing characteristics in various alternatives of a prototype mixing chamber were compared, and then a reduced reaction kinetics was applied to two extreme designs for investigating the impact of gas-phase reactions. Both designs did not reach threshold ethylene mole fraction of 0.001, but surprisingly more ethylene was generated in the design having better mixing characteristics. The presentation will deliver the development process of coupled transport and kinetics model briefly and the detailed information about the mixing characteristics and gas-phase reactions in two mixer designs.

Six azomethine polymers containing bent-core mesogen were synthesized with variation of a bent structure of central core (1,2-dioxyphenylene or 2,3-dioxynaphthylene), and a lateral halogen substituent (X = H, F or Cl ). The properties of the polymers were characterized by FT-IR, NMR spectroscopy, DSC, polarizing optical microscopy, and X-ray diffractometry.

A series of poly(hyroxyamide)s (PHAs) was prepared by direct polycondensation reaction of 4,4'-(2,3-pyridinedioxy)dibenzoic acid and/or isophthalic acid with 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine. The yield percentages of the products were high, and the inherent viscosities of the polymer in DMAc solution at 35℃ were 0.31-0.59 dL/g. All PHA polymers were found to be soluble in polar aprotic solvents such as DMAc, DMSO, NMP, and DMF. On the other hand, LiCl was required to dissolve IPHA-1 in aprotic solvents. Poly(benzoxazole)s (PBOs) were partially soluble in conc-H₂SO₄; IPBO-4, -5, and -6 were partially soluble in NMP only when LiCl was added to the solution, and the solution was heated. The PBO polymers showed a maximum weight loss in the temperature range of 654-680℃, and the char yields at 900℃ under nitrogen atmosphere exceeded 63%.

This paper proposed a new control method for single-phase hybrid active power filter. The proposed algorithm can change single phase system into the orthogonal system which has two phases giving time-delay in regular single phas and making the imaginary second phase. It can make orthogonal system like as being used in $3{\phi}/2{\phi}$ transformation with two phases. It can do complex calculation which calculates intantaneous reactive power. Istead of existing method applying to intantaneous reactive power theory in fixed reference frame, this paper proposed the algorithm which has advantage over reducing harmonics using rotating reference frame. It verified the effectiveness the proposed method through simulation and experiment.

In conclusion, It was necessary increasing the gain of PLL for correcting phase errors and improving the acquisition performance of PN code in apply to the rake receiver.

It has been studied that galaxies evolve following a typical trajectory on the phase space under the influence of deep gravitational potential of galaxy clusters. Similarly, the large-scale filaments could also affect the evolution of galaxies before falling into the clusters. In this study, using a dark matter-only cosmological simulation, N-Cluster Run, we explore the evolution of galaxies on the phase space drien by large-scale filaments. We find that galaxies around the filaments form a common trajectory on the phase space as well as cluster galaxies do. We also examine how these trajectories change depending on various physical parameters such as galaxy mass, initial distance of galaxies from large-scale filaments, and cluster mass.

Biosynthesis of lactate-containing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) was examined in recombinant Escherichia coli W strain from sucrose. The Pseudomonas sp. MBEL 6-19 phaC1437 gene and the Clostridium propionicum pct540 gene, which encode engineered Pseudomonas sp. MBEL 6-19 PHA synthase 1 ($PhaC1_{Ps6-19}$) and engineered C. propionicum propionyl-CoA transferase ($Pct_{Cp}$), respectively, were expressed in E. coli W to construct key metabolic pathway to produce poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-lactate) [P(3HB-co-LA)]. The recombinant E. coli W expressing the phaC1437 gene and the pct540 gene could synthesize P(3HB-co-13mol%LA) up to the polymer content of 31.3 wt% when it was cultured in chemically defined MR medium containing 20 g/L of sucrose and 2 g/L of sodium 3-hydroxybutyrate. When Ralstonia eutropha phaAB genes were additionally expressed to provide 3-hydroxybutyrate-CoA (3HB-CoA) from sucrose, P(3HB-co-16mol%LA) could be synthesized from sucrose as a sole carbon source without supplement of sodium 3-hydroxybutyrate in culture medium, but the PHA content was decreased to 12.2 wt%. The molecular weight of P(3HB-co-16 mol%LA) synthesized in E. coli W using sucrose as carbon source were $1.53{\times}10^4$ ($M_n$) and $2.78{\times}10^4$ ($M_w$), respectively, which are not different from those that have previously been reported by other recombinant E. coli strains. Engineered E. coli strains developed in this study should be useful for the production of lactate-containing PHAs from sucrose, one of the most abundant and least expensive carbon sources.
