  • In this paper, transmitted sound reduction performance of smart panels is studied according to different piezoelectric materials with piezoelectric shunt damping. Peizo-damping is implemented by using a newly proposed tuning method. This method is based on electrical impedance model and maximizing the dissipated energy at the shunt circuit. By measuring the electrical impedance at the piezoelectric patch bonded on a structure, an equivalent electrical model is constructed near the system resonance frequency. After shunting elements are connected to the equivalent circuit, the shunt parameters are optimally searched based on the criterion of maximizing the dissipated energy at the shunt circuit. Transmitted sound reduction performance is compared according to different piezoelectric materials with peizo-damping. Two piezoelectric materials are selected: PZT-5 and QuickPack IDE actuator. When resonant shunt circuit is considered, the use of PZT-5 exhibited the good sound reduction performance.

  • Natural photosynthesis utilizes solar energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to energy-rich carbohydrates. Substantial use of sunlight to meet world energy demands requires energy storage in useful fuels via chemical bonds because sunlight is intermittent. Artificial photosynthesis research focuses the fundamental natural process to design solar energy conversion systems. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ($NAD^+$) and $NADP^+$ are ubiquitous as electron transporters in biological systems. Enzymatic, chemical, and electrochemical methods have been reported for NADH regeneration. As photochemical systems, visible light-driven catalytic activity of NADH regeneration was carried out using platinum nanoparticles, molecular rhodium and cobalt complexes in the presence of triethanolamine as a sacrificial electron donor. Pt nanoparticles showed photochemical NADH regeneration activity without additional visible light collector molecules, demonstrating that both photoactivating and catalytic activities exist together in Pt nanoparticles. The NADH regeneration of the Pt nanoparticle system was not interfered with the reduction of $O_2$. Molecular cobalt complexes containing dimethylglyoxime ligands also transfer their hydrides to $NAD^+$ with photoactivation of eosin Y in the presence of TEOA. In this photocatalytic reaction, the $NAD^+$ reduction process competed with a proton reduction.

  • The optical band gap energy for $SrTiO_3$ by reduction at high temperature was 3.15 eV. The reflectivity of reduced $SrTiO_3$ single crystals showed little variation, however, the reflectivity by the reduction condition had no effect. For the phonon mode at about 790 $cm^{-1}$, a blue-shift took place upon $N_2$ reduction and the decreased. However, a red-shift took place upon a $H_2-N_2$ reduction and the increased at the same phonon mode. With decreasing temperature the dielectric constant decreased rapidly. The thermal activation energies were 0.92-1.02 eV.

  • 수소를 환원제로 사용한 산화철의 유동 환원에서, 환원율에 대한 다양한 공정 변수를 통해 산화철의 하나인 적철광의 환원 거동을 면밀히 관찰하였다. 본 연구를 위해 특별히 설계된 실험실 규모의 유동층 장치에서 목적으로 하는 환원 특성에 대한 가스 속도, 환원 시간 및 온도의 최적 값을 평가 하였다. 최적의 환원율을 나타낸 온도는 750 ℃, 환원 시간은 30분이며 이들을 다음의 시험을 위한 시작점으로 매개 변수 값을 설정 하였다. 가장 높은 관심을 갖는 변수들 중 하나는 가스의 소비 원단 위로, 이는 최적의 조건에서 산화철 1톤을 기준하여 90% 이상의 환원율을 달성하기 위해 요구되는 가스의 양을 말한다. 이 매개 변수는 실험실 수준 장치의 스케일 엎에 있어서 중요한 인자이며, 본 연구를 통해 1,500 Nm3/ton-ore가 산화철이 가장 높은 환원율을 갖기 위한 최적의 가스 소비 원단위 임을 확인하였다.

  • 본 논문의 목적은 OECD국가를 중심으로 온실가스 감축에 대비하여 에너지 원단위(原單位) 측정의 다른 방법으로서 에너지효율함수와 원단위의 효율함수의 추정을 통하여 에너지효율을 측정하는 것이다. 실증결과는 기존의 전통적 에너지원단위와 확률변경함수에 의한 에너지 효율이 크게 연관되어 있지 않았음을 보여준다. 에너지효율 함수와 원단위 효율함수의 효율도 다소 상이하였다. 에너지 투입효율함수에 의한 에너지효율은 GDP, 자본스톡, 노동, 에너지투입량의 순서로 민감하게 반응하는 것으로 보인다. 향후 투입요소 간 최적 결합을 통한 에너지 절감이 필요하고 에너지 소비가 작은 제품의 생산을 통한 저탄소 경제성장의 추구가 요구된다

  • The use of nuclear reactors is a large studied possible solution for thermochemical water splitting cycles. Nevertheless, there are several problems that have to be solved. One of them is to increase the efficiency of the cycles. Hence, in this paper, a thermal energy optimization of a Sulfur-Iodine nuclear hydrogen production cycle was performed by means a heuristic method with the aim of minimizing the energy targets of the heat exchanger network at different minimum temperature differences. With this method, four different heat exchanger networks are proposed. A reduction of the energy requirements for cooling ranges between 58.9-59.8% and 52.6-53.3% heating, compared to the reference design with no heat exchanger network. With this reduction, the thermal efficiency of the cycle increased in about 10% in average compared to the reference efficiency. This improves the use of thermal energy of the cycle.

  • Many in the industrial world that consume high amounts of energy are trying to reduce energy when manufacturing their products. Energy saving during manufacturing is a cost reduction. Reduced cost is necessary for profit improvement. The Piston Under Drive Brake used in the current study is an automotive transmission part. The original machining after hot forging was changed to machining after cold forging of a plate in order to save energy and cost. Two extrusion shapes along the outer diameter caused decreased tool life because of the interrupted cut during turning. Therefore, a thickness reduction of two extrusion areas in the outer diameter was needed. The current study suggests an effective way to reduce the thickness of interrupted cut by using progressive blanking.

  • Nitrite, a curing agent of meat products, is precursors of carcinogenic N-nitrosamines during processing of meat products or under human stomach conditions as well as having its own toxicity. Some researches have been conducted to evaluate the effects of ionizing radiation on the reduction of residual nitrite and N-nitrosamines in an aqueous model system and cured meat products with different packaging methods during storage. These results showed that the gamma irradiation was effective in reducing the residual nitrite and N-nitrosamines in an aqueous model system as well as meat products. Especially, irradiation combined with vacuum or modified atmosphere packaging was more effective in nitrite and N-nitrosamines reduction than aerobic packaging during storage. The objective of this review is to introduce the irradiation technology for the application of reducing the residual nitrite and N-nitrosamine contents in meat products.
