Realization of electronics with performance equal to established technologies that use rigid semiconductor wafers, but in lightweight, foldable and stretchable formats would enable many new application possibilities. Examples include wearable systems for personal health monitoring, 'smart' surgical gloves with integrated electronics and electronic eye type imagers that incorporate focal plane arrays on hemispherical substrates. Circuits that use organic or certain classes of inorganic electronic materials on plastic or steel foil substrates can provide some degree of mechanical flexibility, but they cannot be folded or stretched. Also, with few exceptions such systems offer only modest electrical performance. In this talk, I will present a new approach to high performance, flexible and stretchable integrated circuits. These systems combine single-crystal silicon nanoribbons with thin plastic or elastomeric substrates using both "top-down" and "transfer-printing" technologies. The strategies represent promising routes to high performance, flexible and stretchable optoelectronic devices that can incorporate established, high performance inorganic electronic materials.

Wind effects on roofs are usually considered by equivalent static wind loads based on the equivalence of displacement or internal force for structural design. However, for large-span spatial structures that are prone to dynamic instability under strong winds, such equivalent static wind loads may be inapplicable. The dynamic stability of spatial structures under unsteady wind forces is therefore studied in this paper. A new concept and its corresponding method for dynamic instability-aimed equivalent static wind loads are proposed for structural engineers. The method is applied in the dynamic stability design of an actual double-layer cylindrical reticulated shell under wind actions. An experimental-numerical method is adopted to study the dynamic stability of the shell and the dynamic instability originating from critical wind velocity. The dynamic instability-aimed equivalent static wind loads of the shell are obtained.

구조물의 건전도를 평가하기 위해 상시 구조물 계측을 이용한 Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) 시스템을 적용하게 된다. SHM 시스템의 궁극적 목적은 계측된 데이터를 이용하여 구조물의 손상위치 및 손상정도를 분석하여 거주자에게 유지관리정보와 대처요령 신속하게 제공하는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구조물의 손상탐지를 위해 인공신경망(Artificial Neural Network)을 도입한 알고리즘을 수립하고, 이를 3층 실대 RC Mock-up 구조물에 적용하여 성능을 평가하였다. 먼저 인공신경망의 학습을 위해 구조해석 프로그램을 이용하여 구조물의 손상에 따른 동적특성 변화 데이터베이스를 구축하였다. 그리고 학습된 인공망에 실제 구조물에서 추출한 동특성의 변화를 입력하여 손상탐지를 실시하였다. 이를 통해 인공신경망의 학습방법, 학습데이터의 정규화 방법 등을 규명하고 인공신경망을 이용한 손상탐지의 효과를 분석하였다.

Wear and aging associated damage is a severe problem for safety and maintenance of engineering structures. To acquire structural operational state and provide warning about different types of damage, research on damage identification has gained increasing popularity in recent years. Among various damage identification methods, the Lamb wave-based methods have shown promising suitability and potential for damage identification of plate-type structures. In this paper, a comprehensive study was presented to elaborate four remarkable aspects regarding the Lamb wave-based damage identification method for plate-type structures, including wave velocity, signal denoising, image reconstruction, and sensor layout. Conclusions and path forward were summarized and classified serving as a starting point for research and application in this area.

Due to the nature of HMR food that is susceptible to contamination, its safety management is becoming more important. The relevant food types in food code corresponding to HMR foods are addressed, and the criteria for hygiene indicator bacteria and food poisoning bacteria, and storage and distribution standards according to the product type were presented. The government's safety management for HMR foods is basically carried out through the Food Sanitation Act. Those who intend to do HMR business must complete business registration or declaration, hygiene education, health examination of employees, and comply with legal obligations such as HACCP application. The government confirms compliance with legal requirements through hygiene inspection and monitoring inspection of products. However, the safety of HMR foods is not realized by the safety management system alone. A food safety culture should be established in which industry workers and consumers carry out actions to ensure food safety.

Since 2010, polymer-based magnetoelectric (ME) composites have been developed with detailed investigations of multiferroic properties such as piezoelectric, magnetostrictive, and magnetoelectric, etc. In particular, as a piezoelectric polymer, poly(vinylidene fluoride) and its co-polymers have been widely used in ME composites for energy harvesting, health monitoring, environment treatment, and bio-medical applications. In this study, main research trend and selected experimental results of polymer-based ME composites are briefly reviewed with respect to composite structure as well as application field. A conclusion was drawn that the polymer-based ME composites would be feasible as flexible devices or functional membranes in the near future.

In this paper we present an overview of damage diagnosis algorithms that have been developed over the past two decades using vibration signals obtained from structures. Then, the paper focuses primarily on algorithms that can be used following an extreme event such as a large earthquake to identify structural damage for responding in a timely manner. The algorithms presented in the paper use measurements obtained from accelerometers and gyroscope to identify the occurrence of damage and classify the damage. Example algorithms are presented include those based on autoregressive moving average (ARMA), wavelet energies from wavelet transform and rotation models. The algorithms are illustrated through application of data from test structures such as the ASCE Benchmark structure and laboratory tests of scaled bridge columns and steel frames. The paper concludes by identifying needs for research and development in order for such algorithms to become viable in practice.

Diabetes mellitus is one of the common chronic diseases, seriously threating to human health. The continuous monitoring of blood glucose concentration can effectively prevent diabetic diseases. The sensing performance of glucose non-enzymatic sensors is mainly determined by working electrode materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are recognized as promising candidate for glucose sensor application, due to its large surface areas, ordered porous structure and nearly infinite designability. In this review, the sensing performance, research progress and future challenge of non-enzymatic glucose sensors based on MOF-based materials in recent years are presented. We hope that this review would provide valuable technology guidance for high performance non-enzymatic glucose sensors based on MOFs.
