The limited number of roads and the increasing number of vehicles demand the automatic regulation of overspeed vehicles, illegal vehicles, and overloaded vehicles and the automatic charge calculation depending on the type of the vehicle. To meet such requirements, it is important to remove the shadow of the vehicle as processing and recognizing an image captured by a camera. The shadow of the vehicle is likely to cause misclassification of the vehicle type due to diverse errors and mistakes occurring when detecting geometrical properties of the vehicle. In case that shadows of two different vehicles are overlapped, not only the type of the vehicles may be misclassified but also it is difficult to accurately identify the type of the vehicles. In this paper, we propose a robust algorithm to remove the shadow of a vehicle by calculating the luminance, the chrominance, the gradient density of the cast shadow from information acquired using the image subtraction of the background, and to recognize the substantial vehicle figure. Even when it is hard to detect and split a target vehicle from its shadow as shadows of vehicles are attached to each other, our robust algorithm can detect the vehicle figure only. We implemented our system with a general camera and conducted experiments on various vehicles on general roads to find out our vehicle shade removal algorithm is efficient when detecting and recognizing vehicles.

In the power system with an electric storage system that can increase utilization rate of the source of such new renewable energy, this paper introduces the approach on the daily unit commitment scheduling that determines simultaneously optimum operational condition and output of thermal generators and electric storage device. The unit commitment is one of the most important issues in economic operation and security of short-term operational plan of the power system. It is to determine on/off status of generator to minimize operational cost during the given period. The committed generator should satisfy various operational limitation such as estimated demand by system, spinning reserve condition within minimum operational cost. In order to determine on/off or charge/discharge/idle condition and output level of units and electric storage system, the MILP(Mixed Integer Linear Programming) is suggested. The proposed approach is the mixed method between LP(Linear Programming) and IP(integer programming) which seeks the value of real number and integer that maximize or minimize function objective within given condition. The daily unit commitment problem with the electric storage system is applied to MILP algorithm through linearization and formulation process. The proposed approach is applied to the test system.

The$^{13}C$ NMR shifts of a series of para-substituted 9-aryl-tricyclo$[3.3.1.0^{2,8}]$non-9-yl and 8-aryl-tetracyclo$[3.2.1.0^{2,7}.0^{4,6}]$-oct-8-yl cations were measured in $FSO_3H/SO_2ClF \;at\; -90^{\circ}C\; or\; -70^{\circ}C$ in order to examine whether the ${\rho}^{c+}$ values can be used to explain the mechanism for the stabilization of the geometrically rigid cyclopropylcarbinyl cations. Plots of the ${\Delta}{\delta}^{c+}$ shifts against ${\sigma}^{c+}$ reveal excellent linear correlation. The tricyclononyl systems yield a ${\rho}^{c+}$ value of -4.95 with a correlation coefficient r = 0.9948. The tetracyclo-octanyl systems give a ${\rho}^{c+}$ value of -6.39 with r = 0.9943. A fair parallelism exists between the results of $^{19}F$ nmr studies and the change of ${\rho}^{c+}$ values in these cations. Accordingly, the present study established that the ${\rho}^{c+}$ value can be used as a mearsure of the geometric influence for the charge delocalization in cyclopropylcarbinyl cations.

Energy storage/conversion has become crucial not only to meet the present energy demand but also more importantly to sustain the modern society. Particularly, electrical energy storage is critical not only to support electronic, vehicular and load-levelling applications but also to efficiently commercialize renewable energy resources such as solar and wind. While Li-ion batteries are being intensely researched for electric vehicle applications, there is a pressing need to seek for new battery chemistries aimed at stationary storage systems. In this aspect, Zn-ion batteries offer a viable option to be utilized for high energy and power density applications since every intercalated Zn-ion yields a concurrent charge transfer of two electrons and thereby high theoretical capacities can be realized. Furthermore, the simplicity of fabrication under open-air conditions combined with the abundant and less toxic zinc element makes aqueous Zn-ion batteries one of the most economical, safe and green energy storage technologies with prospective use for stationary grid storage applications. Also, Zn-ion batteries are very safe for next-generation technologies based on flexible, roll-up, wearable implantable devices the portable electronics market. Following this advantages, a wide range of approaches and materials, namely, cathodes, anodes and electrolytes have been investigated for Zn-ion batteries applications to date. Herein, we review the progresses and major advancements related to aqueous. Zn-ion batteries, facilitating energy storage/conversion via $Zn^{2+}$ (de)intercalation mechanism.

Reusing electric vehicle batteries after they have been retired from mobile applications is considered a feasible solution to reduce the demand for new material and electric vehicle costs. However, the evaluation of the value and the performance of second-life batteries remain a problem that should be solved for the successful application of such batteries. The present work aims to estimate the remaining useful life of Li-ion batteries through the neuro-fuzzy system with the equivalent circuit parameters obtained by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). To obtain the impedance spectra of the Li-ion battery over the life, a 18650 cylindrical cell has been aged by 1035 charge/discharge cycles. Moreover, the capacity and the parameters of the equivalent circuit of a Li-ion battery have been recorded. Then, the data are used to establish a neuro-fuzzy system to estimate the remaining useful life of the battery. The experimental results show that the developed algorithm can estimate the remaining capacity of the battery with an RMSE error of 0.841%.

As the demand for the Internet of Things grows, research into indoor photovoltaics for wireless power is becoming important. In particular, perovskite has attracted considerable attention due to its superior performance compared to other candidates. However, various surface defects present in perovskite are a limiting factor for high performance. In particular, deep-level surface defects caused by uncoordinated Pb²⁺ ions directly limit charge transport. In low light environments, this appears to be a more significant hurdle. In this study, ethylenediamine, which can provide covalent bonding to uncoordinated Pb²⁺ ions through nitrogen, was used as a surface treatment material for indoor photovoltaics. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that the uncoordinated Pb²⁺ ions were effectively passivated by the terminal nitrogen of ethylenediamine. As a consequence, a V_OC of 0.998 V, a JSC of 0.139 mA cm^-2 and a fill factor of 83.03% were achieved, resulting in an indoor photoelectric conversion efficiency of 38.02%.

Dielectric ceramic capacitors present high output power density due to the fast energy charge and discharge nature of dielectric polarization. By forming dense ceramic films with nano-grains through the Aerosol Deposition (AD) process, dielectric ceramic capacitors can have high dielectric breakdown strength, high energy storage density, and leading to high power density. Dielectric capacitors fabricated by AD process are expected to meet the increasing demand in applications that require not only high energy density but also high power output in a short time. This article reviews the recent progress on the dielectric ceramic capacitors with improved energy storage properties through AD process, including energy storage capacitors based on both leadbased and lead-free dielectric ceramics.
