Recently, a great deal of research and development of a fuel cell have been carried out to solve problems on the drain of fossil fuel, air pollution and global warning. In order to improve the efficiency of a fuel cell, it is necessary to clarify the flow in separator. In this study, distributions of velocity flow rate and pressure, and streamlines are examined in detail from numerical analysis with CFD code. In the experiment the distribution of flow rate is measured and flow in the each grooves of the separator is visualized by dye method changing Reynolds number. Furthermore, effects of size of the inlet and outlet manifolds and shape of ribs near the inlet outlet on the distributions of flow and pressure are examined.

Numerical simulation is one of the most useful tools to study gas discharge phenomena that occur in alternating current plasma display panel (AC-PDP) cell. Most PDP cell simulations have been performed for two-dimensional cell, is cross-section along the address electrode. We developed a three-dimensional PDP simulator and applied it to a T-shaped electrode cell in order to show the effects of sustain electrode shape that cannot be included in two-dimensional simulation. The dependence of power consumption on electrode shape and area in the simulation showed the same trend as experiment.

The study on the nerve cells in the pars intercerebralis(IP) of 5-day-old cabbage butterfly Pieris rapae L. was performed to observe their ultrastructures and classify them on the basis. of the differences in size, shape and relative distribution cf cell organelles. The brain-subesophageal ganglion complex was fixed in 1% paraformaldehyde-1% gluaraldehyde mixture and embedded in araldite mixture. The transverse thin sections of IP were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate and examined by Hitachi 500 and ]EM 100B electron microscope. Five distinct types. of nerve cells are recognized and are arbitrarily designated as Type I, Type II Type III, Type IV and Type V. Type I neurone: These neurones are neurosecretory cells. Several neurosecretory cells are. recognized in the pars intercerebralis. They are roughly round or peach-shaped cells measuring $13{\sim}25{\mu}m$ in diameter. The rounded nucleus shows about $5{\sim}10{\mu}m$ in diameter. The chromatin is predominantly diffused with only occasional dense patches. The perikaryon contains numerous. mitochondria, free polyribosomes and neurosecretory granules. The neurosecretory granules are relatively uniform in electron density, and each one is about $100{\sim}400{\mu}m$ in diameter and surrounded by a single membrane. The granules are also observed mostly as in groups. In one group of neurones the cisternae of endoplasmic reticulum are distended or in other group of neurones are not distended. Golgi saccules are slightly dilated at their lateral extremities and contains. frequenty dense rounded materials. Type II neurone: Thes have the largest soma in the pars intercerebralis about $30{\sim}35{\mu}m$ in diameter. They also show roughly polygonal in shape. The nucleus is elongated or sickle-shaped. The chromatin is mainly in the euchromatin form. The perikarya in these cells are well populated with populated with free ribosomes and contain numerous mitochondria and Golgi bodies. The cisternae of granular endoplasmic reticulum are also well distributed. Type III neurone: They are oval or spindle-shaped and also medium-sized. neurones approximately $15{\sim}17{\mu}m$ in length. The nucleus is oval or slightly elongated in shape and $8{\sim}9{\mu}m$ in length. The chromatin occurs in diffused form. The cytoplasm contains many filamentous or oval mitochondria. The perikaryon has also numerous free polyribosomes and cisternae of granular endoplasmic reticulum. Type VI neurone: They are roughly polygonal in shape probably due to the close approximation of the adjacent cells. The soma is about $7{\sim}8{\mu}m$ in diameter. The nucleus is round or oval in shape and $5.0{\sim}5.8{\mu}m$ in diameter. The necleus also occupies a large proprion of the cell body. The perikaryon is well populated with free ribosomes and contains several mitochondria and cistenae of granular endoplasmic reticulum. Type V neurone: These neurones are similar to Type VI neurones in various respects such as cell size and cell inclusion, but they differ from Type IV neurones in shape. The soma is oval or slightly elongated. The cell body contains several filamentous and oval mitochondria.

The effective longitudinal shear modulus(LSM) of continuous composites is studied theoretically and numerically using 3-phase unit cell model. Circular, hexagonal and rectangular shapes of reinforced fiber are considered to predict the shear modulus as a function of elastic modulus of each phase and volume fraction of interphase and reinforced fiber. It is found that rectangular fiber shape in low fiber volume fraction($v_f$<30%) and circular fiber shape in high volume fraction($v_f$>40%) shows the higher longitudinal shear modulus. Also the obtained values of LSM for rectangular array and by numerical analysis are higher than those of hexagonal array and by theoretical analysis respectively. The reinforcing effects of interphase are more significant in cases of higher fiber volume fraction and circular fiber shape. Not only the spatial distribution and shape of reinforcing fiber but also the volume of interphase have a pronounced effects on the overall LSM. It is also found that the tangent moduous of 2-and 3-phase polymer matrix composites is insensitive to the shape and distribution of reinforcing fibers.

In spite of many advantages, the practical application of the thin film solar cell is restricted due to its low efficiency compared with the bulk type solar cells. This study intends to adopt the surface plasmon effect using nano particles to solve the low efficiency problem in thin film solar cells. By inserting Ag nano-particles in the absorbing layer of a thin film solar cell, the poynting vector value of the absorbing layer is increased due to the strong energy field. Increasing the value may give thin film solar cells chance to absorb more energy from the incident beam so that the efficiency of the thin film solar cell can be improved. In this work, we have designed the optimal shape of Ag nano-particle in the absorbing laser of a basic type thin film solar cell using the finite element analysis commercial package COMSOL. Design parameters are set to the particle diameter and the distance between each Ag nano-particle and by changing those parameters using the full factorial design variable set-up, we can determine optimal design of Ag nano-particles for maximizing the poynting vector value in the absorbing layer.

This study investigated the mechanical tearing of a cell membrane using a nanostructured alumina filter for easy and quick mechanical cell disruption. Nanostructured alumina filters were prepared by a multi-step aluminum anodizing process and nanopore etching process. Six different types of nanostructures were formed on the surface of the nanoporous alumina filters to compare the mechanical cell disruption characteristics according to the shape of the nanostructure. The prepared alumina filter was assembled in a commercial filter holder, and then, NIH3T3 fibroblast cells in a buffer solution were passed through the nanostructured alumina filter at a constant pressure. By measuring the concentration of proteins and DNA, the characteristics of mechanical cell disruption of the nanostructured alumina filter were investigated.

고분자 안정화 블루상 액정셀(Polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal cell)은 ${\mu}s$ 단위의 응답속도와 광시야각 및 액정의 배향을 위한 문지름 과정이 필요 없는 장점이 있다. 그러나 높은 구동전압과 낮은 kerr 상수값으로 인해 유도되는 복굴절의 값이 낮아 고분자 안정화 블루상 액정셀의 전기광학특성을 저해하는 요인이 되었다. 본 논문에서는 지그재그 형태의 전극 구조를 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안된 전극 구조를 가지는 액정셀의 투과율 손실 없이 구동전압을 25%이상 낮출 수 있음을 확인하였다.

최근 3차원 세포 배양이 가능해 지면서 세포의 부피, 3차원 형태 등을 보다 정확하게 확인할 수 있게 되었다. 일반적으로 세포의 3차원 단층 정보는 공초점 현미경 또는 전자 현미경과 같은 특수한 현미경을 이용하여 관찰 해야 한다. 그러나 공초점 현미경은 일반 현미경에 비해 비용이 비싸며, 촬영 시간이 오래 걸린다. 따라서 일반적으로 사용되는 광학 현미경으로 세포의 3차원 형태복원을 하는 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 다초점 형광 영상을 기반으로 영상의 추정된 초점 값(focus estimator value)을 이용해 세포를 3차원으로 형태 복원하는 방법을 제안한다. 먼저 3차원으로 배양된 세포를 광학 현미경으로 초점을 변경 하면서 다초점 영상들을 촬영한다. 이후 영상에서 circular Hough transform을 이용하여 세포 군집의 대략적인 위치를 ROI(Region Of Interest)로 정한다. 획득한 ROI에 MSBF(Modified Sliding Band Filter)를 적용하여 ROI 내에 세포 군집의 외곽선을 추출하고, 추출된 외곽선을 기준으로 추정 초점 값을 구한다. 계산된 초점 값과 현미경의 NA(Numerical Aperture)을 이용하여 깊이를 고려한 세포 군집의 외곽선을 추출하고 추출된 외곽선을 통해 세포들을 3차원으로 형태 복원한다. 복원 결과는 세포 영상의 in-focus가 된 부분들을 하나로 합친 영상과 비교하여 검증한다.
