Recently, measuring instruments for SHM of structures has been developed. In general, the wireless transmission of sensor signals, compared to its wired counterpart, is preferable due to the absence of triboelectric noise and elimination of the requirement of a cumbersome cable. However, in extreme environments, the sensor may be less sensitive to temperature changes and to the distance between the sensor and data logger. This may compromise on the performance of the sensor and instrumentation. Therefore, in this paper, free vibration experiments were conducted using wireless MEMS sensors at an actual site. Measurement was assessed in time and frequency domain by changing the temperature variation at($-8^{\circ}C$, $-12^{\circ}C$ and $-16^{\circ}C$) and the communication distance (20m, 40m, 60m, 80m).

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) / polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) piezoelectric composite films for nanogenerator devices were fabricated by spray coating method. When the CNT/PVDF mixture solution passes through the spray nozzle with small diameter by the compressed nitrogen gas, electric charges are generated in the liquid by a triboelectric effect. Then randomly distributed ${\beta}$ phase PVDF film could be re-oriented by the electric field resulting from the accumulated electrical charges, and might be resulted in extremely one-directionally aligned ${\beta}$ phase PVDF film without additional electric field for poling. X-ray diffraction patterns were used to investigate crystal structure of the CNT/PVDF composite films. It was confirmed that they revealed extremely large portion of the ${\beta}$ phase PVDF crystalline in the film. Therefore we could obtain the poled CNT/PVDF piezoelectric composite films by the spray coating method without additional poling process. Charge accumulation and resulting electric field generation mechanism by spray coating method were shown in Fig. 1. The capacitance of the CNT/PVDF films increased by adding CNTs into the PVDF matrix, and finally saturated. However, the I-V curves didn't show any saturation effect in the CNT concentration range of 0~4 wt%. Therefore we can control the performance of the devices fabricated from the CNT/PVDF composite film by adjusting the current level resulted from the CNT concentration with the uniform capacitance value.

This paper introduces the mechanism of the ESD (Electrostatic discharge) in the HDD spindle system using FDBs (Fluid Dynamic Bearings). When a HDD (Hard Disk Drive) spindle system is rotating, triboelectric charging occurs in the FDBs through the friction of the lubricant between the rotating shaft and stationary sleeve. And this electrostatic charge is accumulated in the rotating part of the HDD spindle system because it is insulated from the ground by the lubricant. This research shows experimentally that the behavior of electric charge and discharge in the FDB spindle system is the same as that of a capacitor. It also measures the electrostatic charge and discharge of the FDB spindle system due to the chanse of humidity, supporting load and motor speed. This research shows that the control of ESD is required in the HDD spindle system using FDBs, because the electrostatic charge accumulated in the FDB spindle system may cause the breakdown damage of the GMR head and data loss consequently.

Sustainable energy supplies without the recharging and replacement of the charge storage device have become increasingly important. Among various energy harvesters, the triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) has attracted considerable attention due to its high instantaneous output power, broad selection of available materials, eco-friendly and inexpensive fabrication process, and various working modes customized for target applications. In this study, the amount of voltage and current generated was measured by applying the PSD profile random vibration test of the electronic vibration tester and ISTA 3A according to the time of Anodized Aluminum Oxide (AAO) pore widening of the manufactured TENG device Teflon and AAO. The discharge and charging tests of the integrated module during the random simulated transport environment and the recognition distance of RFID were measured while agricultural products (onion) were loaded into the returnable folding plastic box. As a result, it was found that AAO alumina etching processing time to maximize TENG performance was optimal at 31 min in terms of voltage and current generation, and the integrated module applied with the TENG module showed a charging effect even during the continuous use of RFID, so the voltage was kept constant without discharge. In addition, the RFID recognition distance of the integrated module was measured as a maximum of 1.4 m. Therefore, it was found that the surface condition of AAO, a TENG element, has a great influence on the power generation of the integrated module, and due to the characteristics of TENG, the power generation increases as the surface dries, so it is judged that the power generation can be increased if the surface drying treatment (ozone treatment, etc.) of AAO is applied in the future.

휴대형, 착용형 전자기기의 활용범위가 넓어지면서, 무겁고 부피가 큰 고체 배터리의 한계점이 드러나고 있으며, 배터리의 역할을 일부 분담할 수 있는 소형 에너지 수확 장치의 개발이 시급한 가운데, 일상 생활 속에서 버려지는 에너지원에 대한 활용도가 중요해지고 있다. 정전발전 기술은 두 물질 표면의 접촉과 분리에 의해 발생되는 마찰대전 효과와 전하유도 현상에 기반해 전기를 생산할 수 있기 때문에, 주변환경에 존재하는 역학적, 기계적 에너지원을 복잡한 중간과정을 거치지 않고도 효과적으로 수확할 수 있다는 장점을 지니고 있다. 인간의 주변환경에 존재하는 에너지원 중에서도 바람에너지는 자연환경에 존재하는 무한한 친환경 에너지원으로써, 그 수확과 활용에 대한 관심이 높은 신재생 에너지원이다. 본 연구에서는 정전발전 기술을 기반으로 하여 이러한 바람에너지의 효과적 수확을 위한 에너지 수확 장치의 최적화와 정전발전 기술의 활용도를 극대화할 수 있는 활용 방안에 대해 분석하였다. Fluttering film을 이용한 Natural wind based Fluttering TENG (NF-TENG)를 개발하였으며, 바람에너지의 효과적 수확을 위해 설계 최적화를 진행하였다. 또한 낮은 전류와 높은 전압을 발생시키는 TENG의 고유 특징을 부각하여 안전한 고전압 발생 시스템을 개발하여 고전압을 요구하는 분야에서의 활용 방안을 제안하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 도출한 연구 결과는 정전발전 기술을 기반으로 하는 소형 에너지 수확장치를 이용해 일상생활 속에서 버려지는 바람에너지를 수확하여 고전압이 필요한 분야에서 폭넓게 활용할 수 있는 방법으로써 큰 잠재력을 보여줌을 시사한다.
