  • 태양광발전시스템이 갖고 있는 전기적 출력특성이 일사량과 온도의 변화에 따라 크게 변화되므로 동일조건에서의 재현 또는 재실험이 불가능한 단점으로 실험적 분석에 대한 어려운 문제점을 갖고 있다. 태양광발전시스템의 실증적인 연구를 위하여 기후조건의 변화에도 실제 태양전지의 출력특성을 나타낼 수 있는 가상구현 시스템이 필요한데 이를 구현하기위한 기존의 이론적 모델은 온도와 일사량이 동시에 변화할 때 나타내지 못하는 약점이 있어 이론 보완하는 모델 연구가 우선적으로 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 태양전지 특성을 가상구현 할 수 있는 새로운 수학적 모델을 제안하였고 연구자가 원하는 특정조건이나 임의의 일사량과 온도에 대한 태양전지 특성을 가상구현 할 수 있음을 이론적 검토 및 시뮬레이션을 통하여 해석하였다. 또한 새로운 모델을 검증하기 위하여 태양전지 제조사의 데이터를 바탕으로 가상구현 태양전지 시스템을 실험해 비교해본 결과 최대전력점과 개방전압사이에서 5[%] 미만의 오차를 보여 태양전지 가상구현 시스템에 적용 타당성을 보였다.

  • Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is an essential substance added to animal cell culture medium. However, its composition is unclear causing problems such as development of an immune response when cultured cells are transplanted into the human body. In this study, silk sericin, silk fibroin, and hemolymph obtained from silkworms were added to the cell culture medium in order to determine if it can replace FBS. After establishment of the cell culture, cell proliferation and expression levels of cell growth-related genes were compared with those of control cells (cells cultured in the medium with 10% FBS). Results showed that the test group treated with silk fibroin extracted from a Korean silkworm variety, Kumokjam could replace 10% FBS. In addition, expression levels of cell growth related genes such as Fibronectin and TGF-β1 increased significantly in cells cultured using silk fibroin, depending on the concentration used in cell adhesion and cell proliferation [24]. To date, no studies have been conducted to find a replacement for FBS. Thus, this study was carried out to develop a substitute for FBS by using silkworm-derived alternatives such as silkworm hemolymph, silk sericin, and silk fibroin, which are cheap and have various physiological effects, cell promoting effects, and can be mass produced.

  • 고분자 전해질 연료전지를 자동차용 동력원으로 사용하는 경우 겨울철 운전 시 연료전지 내에 존재하는 물이 결빙하여 연료전지의 성능을 저하시킬 수 있다. 물의 결빙이 연료전지의 성능에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 연료전지의 온도를 운전온도인 $80^{\circ}C$에서 물이 결빙하기에 충분한 온도인 $-10^{\circ}C$까지 열순환하면서 전류전압 곡선을 측정했다. 열순환이 반복됨에 따라 물의 상변화와 이에 따른 부피변화로 인해 연료전지의 성능이 감소했다. 물의 결빙이 연료전지의 성능을 저하시키는 원인을 규명하기 위해 BET분석과 순환전류전압법, 임피더스 분석을 이용해 열순환이 전극의 구조와 분극 저항에 미치는 영향을 조사했다.

  • Hydrocodes are large computer programs that can be used to solve a wide variety of highly transient problems such as high-speed impact and explosion events. This paper describes the recent activity to develop a Multi-material hydrocode in Korea. The code consists of two stages; Lagrangian, and remap stages. Although a sophisticated contact algorithm has been developed for Lagrangian calculations, a relatively simple mechanics at the interfaces of materials are used in the multi-material Eulerian code. Volume of fluid interface reconstruction methods are used to resolve the interfaces between different materials. For the advection stage of the cell centered properties, one-dimensional hyperbolic equation is used. Test problems demonstrated here are the high-speed impact/penetration and explosion problems.

  • There are many moving-body problems to be solved, the solution of which necessary for proper design of flight vehicles in aerospace industry. Since a body moves relative to other bodies in the category of these problems, difficulty arises regarding both generation of computational grid around the body in motion and conservation of flow properties in the moving grid system. A few example could be store separation from the aircraft and relative vibration of multiple bodies in the high-speed flow passage. In this paper we report on the progress made in computing moving-body aerodynamics related with sabot separation characteristics. Conservative overlapping grid together with cell-merging-unmerging technique is used to solve the Euler equations for a body in high-speed motion. Carbuncle errors has to be removed before we obtain physically adequate solution. Two-dimensional application is reported here.

  • Recently, energy Problem has become more important thing than that of past years. Therefore, researchers in many countries are trying to find the solution for removing energy Problem. One of all is the power generation with using the photovoltaic system. Because this system has some advantage, like purity and infinity. However, there are some problems to generate electrical power with using photovoltaic system. That problems, taking up a very big space and taking financial worries, come into existence. So it is inevitable to make the visual implement equipment for doing repetition experiment and solving this problems. In this paper, Boost converter are analyzed and simulated to make high power PV virtual implement system as input source instead of using transformer.

  • Cholesterol, the main structural molecule of cell membranes, is involved in essential functions of the human body. Dyslipidemia is an established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) that is observed even in childhood. To reduce the risk of CVDs in children, several clinical guidelines have been published for the management of pediatric dyslipidemia. However, pediatric dyslipidemia is also associated with several health problems other than CVDs. This article reviews the current data on dyslipidemia-related pediatric health issues. There is strong evidence that low serum vitamin D levels, asthma, and mental health problems may be associated with dyslipidemia in the pediatric population regardless of body mass index. This review also highlights the need for further large-scale population-based studies in the Korean pediatric population to establish effective strategies for promoting children's health.

  • Cancer represent one of the most serious health problems and major causes of death around the world. Many anticancer drugs in clinical use today are natural products or derived from natural sources. Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal is a small shrub widely distributed in many parts of the world including Saudi Arabia. The antiproliferative activities of the methanolic extract of W. somnifera leaves collected from Faifa mountains, southwest Saudi Arabia against MCF-7, HCT116 and HepH2 cell lines were investigated. The extract showed a strong antiproliferative activity against all cell lines with $IC_{50}$ values of 3.35, 2.19 and $1.89{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Flow cytometry results showed that the extract arrested the cell cycle at S phase, and the increase in the caspase 3 activity suggested that the extract could induce cell apoptosis by a caspase mediated pathway. These results demonstrated that the methanolic extract of W. somnifera leaves collected from Faifa mountains has comparable strong antiproliferative activities to samples collected from different locations.

  • Highly open porous polymer matrices are required for high density cell seeding, efficient nutrient, and oxygen supply to the cells cultured in the three dimensional matrices. However, there are severe problems of mass transfer limitations within the cell/scaffolds culture system. Thus we hypothesize that continuos-flow culture conditioning of cells with the scaffolds may improve the cell viability and the differentiated function. In this study, we fabricated porous PLGA scaffolds by using gas-foaming/salt-leaching method as previous described. Viscous PLGA gel paste contains ammonium bicarbonate particulates, acting as a gas-foaming agent as well as a salt-leaching porogen, were cast into Teflon mold and dried. Ammonium bicarbonate salt upon contact to an acidic aqueous solution evloves gaseous ammonia and carbon dioxide by itself. And we conjugated galactose moiety [AGA; $N-(aminobuty1)-O-{\beta}-D-galactopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-D-glucoamide]$ to the terminal end group of a PLGA to increase the cell adhesion and matain the differentiated function of hepatocytes. Cell-seeded scaffolds were secured in a flow bioreactor chamber and exposed to continuous flow at 5 ml/min. As a result of our study, the high yield of hepatocytes attachment was accomplished by increasing the concentration of PLGA-AGA conjugate in polymer scaffolds and cells in the scaffolds under continuos flow condition maintained a high level of viability and albumin secretion rate of cultured hepatocytes showed a higher level that of control groups.

  • Melting method has long been considered difficult to realize because of problems such as the low foamability of molten metal, the varying size of cellular structures and solidification shrinkage. The parameters to solve the problem in electric furnace were stirring temperature, stirring velocity, heating velocity and foaming temperature It is important to consider the effects of induction heating, because it brings about the inner flow by the temperature gradient. Aspect ratio also depends on the induction heating. Mechanical properties are dependent on cell sizes and aspect rations. Therefore, this paper presents the effects of these parameters on the cell sizes. For the sake of this, combined stirring process was used to fabricate aluminum foam materials by the above mentioned parameters. Image analysis was performed to calculate the cell sizes, distributions, and aspect ratioes at the cross section of feared aluminum in the direction of height.
