$K^+$ currents play multiple roles in the excitability of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. Influences on these currents change the shape of the action potential, its firing threshold and the resting membrane potential. In this study, whole cell configuration of patch clamp technique had been applied to record the blocking effect of capsaicin, a lipophilic alkaloid, on the delayed rectifier $K^+$ current in cultured small diameter DRG neurons of adult rat. Capsaicin reduced the amplitude of $K^+$ current in dose dependent manner, and the concentration-dependence curve was well described by the Hill equation with $K_D$ value of $19.1{\mu}M.$ The blocking effect of capsaicin was reversible. Capsaicin $(10 {\mu}M)$ shifted the steady-state inactivation curve in the hyperpolarizing direction by about 15 mV and increased the rate of inactivation. The voltage dependence of activation was not affected by capsaicin. These multiple effects of capsaicin may suggest that capsaicin bind to the region of $K^+$ channel, participating in inactivation process.

Transformer inrush current can cause the voltage drop by source impedance. The accurate modeling and analysis for inrush current is first step to limit the inrush current and improve the power qualify. This paper presents the modeling of transformer inrush current by EMTP-RV using Jeju power system, Korea. The method to model the hysteresis curve of transformer in EMTP-RV is discussed. Simulations demonstrate the verification of modeling of inrush current by comparing the data recorded in field with simulation values and analyzing the harmonics of inrush current.

The dynamic resistance monitoring in primary circuit is one of the important issues. Because in-process and real time quality assurance of resistance spot weld is needed to increase the product reliability. In this study, new dynamic resistance detecting method is proposed as a practical manner of weld quality assurance using instantaneous current and voltage measured at the primary circuit. and also, various patterns of primary dynamic resistance curve are characterized with the macro photograph and the weldability lobe curve. It is found that the primary dynamic resistance patterns are basically similar to those of the secondary, but there is evident advantage such as no extra devices are needed to obtain the quality information and eventually real time feedback control will be possible.

The performance dynamics of battery is very sensitive to operating conditions (i.e temperature, load current, and state of charge). A model developed based on certain conditions may perform well under the similar conditions but can not accurately predict the performance for changing conditions. Thus, a generalized model is needed which can accurately emulate the battery dynamic behavior under all conditions. In addition, the components of the model should relate to the physicochemical processes that occur inside the battery. Electrochemical impedance curve shows better visible reflection of the processes inside battery as compared to voltage curve. The model trained for parameterization using neural network has better generalization than simple curve fitting. Thus, this study proposes recurrent neural network based parameterization of the Lithium ion battery model followed by impedance based identification.

최근, 화석연료 고갈과 온실 가스 배출에 대한 우려가 높아지면서 신·재생 에너지 기술에 대한 연구가 주목을 받고 있다. 휴대용 전자기기 및 웨어러블 디바이스의 수요가 증가하고 IT기기들이 소형화되면서 배터리의 크기, 사용시간 등의 한계를 극복하기 위한 기술로 에너지 하베스팅이 있다. 본 논문에서는 열전소자의 V-I 특성곡선과 내부저항을 분석하고, 기존의 MPPT제어방식을 비교하였다. P&O제어방식은 열전소자의 전압, 전류를 측정하기 위한 센서 2개를 사용해야하기 때문에 경제적으로 비효율적이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 출력전압 조절을 위한 센서1개만을 이용하여 MPP를 추적하는 새로운 MPPT제어방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 MPPT제어방식은 duty ratio와 부하의 출력전압의 관계를 이용하였으며, DC-DC Converter의 출력전압을 주기적으로 샘플링하여 duty ratio를 증가 또는 감소시켜 최적의 duty ratio를 찾아 MPP를 유지하도록 제어된다. DC-DC Converter는 Two-Switch 토폴로지인 Cascaded boost-Buck Converter를 이용하여 회로도를 설계하였다. 제안된 MPPT 제어방식은 PSIM 시뮬레이션을 이용한 모의실험을 통하여 검증하였고, 그 결과 열전소자의 V-I 특성곡선으로부터 얻어지는 MPP에서 전압×전류 및 전력값(V=4.2V, I=2.5A, P=10.5W)과 일치함을 확인하였다.

The unloading compliance method is the most commonly used method to evaluate the fracture resistance characteristics of a material. In dynamic loading condition, the direct current potential drop(DCPD) method has been used because the unloading compliance method can not be applied due to the discontinuity of loading. However, even in the dynamic test using DCPD method, there is a problem that the voltage drops sharply on the initiation of crack. For the reason metioned above, the normalization method was suggested on ASTM E 1820 which is revised recently, as a new method to evaluate the dynamic fracture resistance characteristic. The nomalization method can be used to obtain a fracture resistance curve directly from a load-load line displacement. In this study, we obtained two fracture resistance curves from static test of welding part of nuclear piping both by unloading compliance and nomalization method. The two curves were almost same each other, so the adaptability of the nomalization method has been proved. We conducted a dynamic fracture resistance test for the same material. The fracture resistance curve from the dynamic test was obtained by normalization method and compared to that of the static test result.

This paper proposes a compensating algorithm of a measurement torrent transformer (CT) using DSP. The core flux is calculated and then magnetizing current is estimated in accordance with the flux-magnetizing current curve. The core loss current is obtained with the core loss resistance and the secondary voltage. The correct secondary current is estimated by adding the exciting current to the measured secondary current. The performance of the proposed algorithm was tested using EMTP generated data. The experiment on the real CT was conducted using the prototype compensated system based on a digital signal processor. The results indicate that the algorithm can increase the accuracy of the measurement CT significantly.

A microplasma current switch (MPCS) for a device operated in a current mode like organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), which features matrix addressability and current switching, is presented as well as its architecture and operational principle. The MPCS utilizes the intrinsic memory and conductivity of plasmas to achieve matrix addressability and current switching. We have fabricated a $100\;mm\;{\times}\;100\;mm$ MPCS panel in which its cell pitch is $1080\;{\mu}m\;{\times}\;1080\;{\mu}m$. The matrix addressability and current switching were verified. In addition, the current-voltage (I-V) characteristic of the unit cell was measured when plasmas were ignited. In principle, the scheme of the MPCS is equivalent to that of a double Langmuir probe diagnosing plasma parameters except for their relative dimensions to a plasma volume. Accordingly, the I-V characteristic was analyzed by a double Langmuir probe theory, and the plasma density and electron temperature were estimated from the I-V curve using a collisional double Langmuir probe theory.

Cardiac chambers serve as mechanosensory systems during the haemodynamic or mechanical disturbances. To examine a possible role of fluid pressure (FP) in the regulatien of atrial $Ca^{2+}$ signaling we investigated the effect of FP on L-type $Ca^{2+}$ current $(I_{Ca})$ in rat ventricular myocytes using whole-cell patch-clamp technique. FP $(\sim40cm\;H_2O)$ was applied to whole area of single myocytes with electronically controlled micro-jet system. FP suppressed the magnitude of peak $I_{Ca}$ by $\cong25\%$ at 0 mV without changing voltage dependence of the current-voltage relationship. FP significantly accelerated slow component in inactivation of $I_{Ca}$, but not its fast component. Analysis of steady-state inactivation curve revealed a reduction of the number of $Ca^{2+}$ channels available for activity in the presence of FP. Dialysis of myocytes with high concentration of immobile $Ca^{2+}$ buffer partially attenuated the FP-induced suppression of $I_{Ca}$. In addition, the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ buttering abolished the FP-induced acceleration of slow component in $I_{Ca}$ inactivation. These results indicate that FP sup-presses $Ca^{2+}$ currents, in part, by increasing cytosolic $Ca^{2+}$ concentration.

PV cell modeling is necessary both for software and hardware simulators in analyzing and testing the performance of PV generation systems. Unique I-V curve of a PV cell identifies its own characteristics by electrical equivalent model that is composed of diode constants ($I_o$, $v_t$), photo-generated current ($I_{ph}$), series resistance ($R_s$), and shunt resistance ($R_{sh}$). Photo-generated current can be easily estimated since it is proportional to irradiation level. However, other electrical parameters should be solved from the manufacturer's data sheet that is consisted with three remarkable operating points such as open circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$), short circuit current ($I_{sc}$), and maximum power voltage/current ($V_{MPP}/I_{MPP}$). This paper explains and analyzes mathematical process of a novel PV cell modeling algorithm that was proposed by the authors with the name of "K-algorithm".
