Mussel adhesive protein (MAP) was extracted from Korean Mytilus edulis and then partially purified using Sephacryl S-300 gel permeation chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. As an indicator of adhesiveness, is 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) content was determined. Its DOPA/protein ratio of 0.19 was higher than those of other reports, indicating a good adhesive. The partially purified MAP was confirmed by acid-urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using cetylpiridinium bromide as a cationic detergent. Sea mussel hydrolysates were prepared using three commercial proteases to provide value-added functional materials and their angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities were determined. Among hydrolysates of sea mussel, Protamex was the best and further purification would improved ACE inhibitory activity.

An evaluation method of spacer grid thermal mixing performance in rod bundles is suggested based on hydraulic tests in a single phase flow. Heat transfer correlation was derived by the analogy between momentum and heat transfer. Three of major factors, such as blockage ratio of spacer grid, convective flow swirling, and turbulent intensity, were found to be significantly influential to the spacer grid thermal mixing performance. Local heat transfer near spacer grid was predicted for the hydraulic test of 6 ${\times}$ 6 rod bundles with neighboring different spacer grids.

A matrix converter is used for converting AC/AC power directly. In order to generate sinusoidal input/output waveform in matrix converter, it uses nine bidirectional switches and PWM modulation. This paper presents an analytical averaged loss model of matrix converter with DDPWM(direct duty ratio PWM) and proposes a new switching method for reducing switching losses. A Mathematical loss models with average magnitude of voltage/current are classed as conduction and switching loss. The proposed switching pattern is improved with existing DDPWM. To prove improved efficiency with proposed DDPWM, this paper compares losses between suggested switching pattern and conventional switching pattern using mathematical and simulation method. Each loss types are influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, switching frequency, output current and modulation method.

The paper proposes a close loop control algorithm for Z-source inverter. The algorithm is realized by PWM duty ratio control in order to improve the output voltage to it's desired level. The controller consist of the output voltage PID controller and DC input voltage P controller. Using the DQ coordinate transformation simplify the controller design. The PSIM simulation results verify the validity by means of comparing the system with or without compensation and estimating if the system has output consistency function when ZSI's load and input voltage value changing.

We have fabricated CIGS thin film absorber layers by the evaporation of CIGS powders which were synthesized by solutions with different atomic ratio compositions. We found that the polycrystalline structural properties and optical properties of the deposited CIGS thin films were strongly dependent on the CIGS powder synthesis solution compositions. For three different solution compositions, Cu:In:Ga:Se= 4:3:1:8, 8:3:1:8, 12:3:1,8, the deposited thin film crystalline structures were varied form InSe crystalline structure to CIGS chalcopyrite structures. Our results showed that CIGS powder evaporation is potential for the one step fabrication process for CIGS thin film absorber layer deposition.

The syntheses and crystal structures of a three-dimensional (3D) coordination network $[Zn_4(2-mBIM)_5-(C_2H_6NCOO)(HCOO)({\mu}-OH)]{\cdot}DMF$ ($1{\cdot}$DMF; 2-mBIM = 2-methylbenzimidazolate) and a two-dimensional (2D) layer $[Zn_2(2-mBIM)_3(HCOO)(H_2O)]{\cdot}DMF$ ($2{\cdot}DMF$) are reported. Different structures were produced depending on the ratio of reactants. Structurally, 1 illustrates the formation of a unique framework based on a 2-mBIM bridge with the side group on an imidazole ring, while 2 possesses a honeycomb layer built up purely from imidazolates. For gas sorption, $CO_2$ is adsorbed on the activated phase of 1 but $N_2$ is not taken up.

This study proposes a parallel operation strategy for small wind turbine systems. A small wind turbine system consists of blade, permanent magnet synchronous generator, three-phase diode rectifier, DC/DC buck converter, and the battery load. This configuration has reliability, simple control algorithm, high efficiency, and low cost. In spite of these advantages, the system stops when unexpected failures occur. Possible failures can be divided into mechanical and electrical parts. The proposed strategy focuses on the failure of electrical parts, which is verified by numerical analysis through equivalent circuit and acquired general formula of small wind power generation systems. Simulation and experimental results prove its efficiency and usefulness.

$(Ba_{0.6-x}-Sr_{0.4}Ca_x)TiO_3$ (x=0.10, 0.15, 0.20, y=$0.0{\sim}3.0$) powders were fabricated by the sol-gel method, and BSCT thick films were fabricated by the silk-screen printing method. Their structural and dielectric properties were investigated with variation of composition ratio. All BSCT thick films showed a homogeneous structure without presence of the second phase. BSCT film thickness, obtained by three cycle of printing, was approximately $80{\mu}m$. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the 3-coated BSCT(50/40/10) thick film were approximately 1700 and 0.07%, respectively.

A satellite RF communication link is analyzed based on a simple fundamental equations by systematic approach in this paper. The number of variables related to a design and analysis of satellite RF link is often a dozen or more, thus it is a tedious and time-consuming task. With the given input data, the important parameters are calculated step by step and three communication characteristics such as communication channel capacity, carrier-to-noise ratio(CNR) at the satellite and ground station are analyzed. It gives very useful information to the system engineers for designing and analyzing the overall satellite communication system in the conceptual design phase.

A three-dimensional model has been developed for pulverized coal combusters and gasifiers. Coal devolatilization, heterogeneous char oxidation, gas particle interchange, radiation, gas phase oxidation, primary and secondary stream mixing, and heat losses are considered. A finite difference method was used to solve the ordinary non-linear differential equations. The effects of primary and secondary stream flow ratio and coal particle size are investigated.
