FRP has been used very much as high strength and electrical insulation materials. The fiber contributes the high strength and modulus to the composite. The main roles of the matrix in composite materials like FRP are to transmit and distribute stresses among the individual fibers. The fiber orientation in FRP has a great effect on the strength of FRP because the strength of FRP mainly depends on the strength of fiber. In this study, compressive and bending stresses of FRP rods were simulated and measured according to the winding orientation of glass fiber. Inner part of FRP was made unidirectionally by pultrusion method and outer part of FRP was made by filament winding method to give fiber orientation to the FRP. The shear stresses had great effect on the strength of FRP although the stress of parallel direction of FRP was much higher. The tendency of compressive and bending strengths with glass fiber orientation was different each other.

A lithium ion secondary battery using carbon as a negative electrode has been developed. Further improvements to increase the cell capacity are expected by modifying the structure of the carbonaceous material. There are hopes for the development of large capacity lithium ion secondary batteries with long cycle, high energy density, high power density, and high energy efficiency. In the present paper, needle cokes from petroleum were examined as an anode of lithium ion secondary battery. Petroleum cokes, MCL(Molten Caustic Leaching) treated in Korea Institute Energy Research, were carbonized at various temperatures of 0, 500, 700, $19700^{\circ}C$ at heating rate of $2^{\circ}C$/min for lh. The electrolyte was used lM liPF6 EC/DEC (1:1). The voltage range of charge & discharge was 0.0V(0.05V) ~ 2.0V. The treated petroleum coke at $700^{\circ}C$ had an initial capacity over 560mAh.g which beyond the theoretical maximum capacity, 372mAh/g for LiC6. This phenomena suggests that carbon materials with disordered structure had higher cell capacity than that the graphitic carbon materials.

We report the results of a preliminary investigation on capacitive humidity sensors using iodine-doped polyphenylacetylene(PPA) thin films. PPA was prepared from phenylacetylene(PA), chemically doped with iodine, and characterized by DSC, $^1H$-NMR and FTIR spectra. The iodine-doped PPA sensors showed a sensitivity of 0.20pF/%RH, a linearity of 3.8%FS, a negligible hysteresis, and a low temperature coefficients of $0.043~0.067pF/^{\circ}C$ over a wide range of relative humidity. These results are expected to open up the possibility of iodine-doped PPA thin films as relative humidity sensors.

This paper analysed the induced electric field of human body under the 765 kV transmission line considering permittivity and conductivity. As permittivity of human body is very high as 106 at 60 Hz, special numerical computation technique is Surface Charge Method(SCM) for composite media with extremely different properties is applied to reduce calculation error of induced electric field inside the human body.

In this paper, we developed 3 dimensional Surface Charge Method which could calculate electric fields inside GIS with a small void in solid insulator or with a metal impurity. We find a metal impurity makes much more non-uniform electric field distribution inside GIS than a small void. We also find electric field is much more increased when a metal impurity is close to solid insulator surface at high voltage conductor.

A new method of measuring residual stress in micromachined film is proposed. An estimation of residual stress is performed by using least squares fit with an appropriate deflection modeling. an exact value of residual stress is obtained without any of the ambiguities that exist in conventional buckling method, and a good approximation is also obtained by using a few data points. Therefore, the test structures area could be greatly decreased by using this method. The measurement can be done more easily and simply without any actuation or any specific measuring equipment. The structure and fabrication processes described in this paper are simple and widely used in surface micromachining. In addition, in-situ measurement is available by using the proposed method when the test structure and the measurement structure are fabricated on a wafer simultaneously.

This paper presents the fabrication and test of a micropump consisting of a pair of Al flap valves and a phase-change type actuator. The actuator is composed of a heater, a silicone rubber diaphragm and a working fluid chamber. The diaphragm is actuated by the vaporization and the condensation of the working fluid. The micropump is fabricated by the anisotropic etching, the boron diffusion and the metal evaporation. The forward and the backward flow characteristics of the flap valves illustrate the appropriateness as a check valve. Also, the flow rate of the micropump is measured. When the square wave input voltage of 8 V, 70% duty ratio and 2 Hz is applied to the heater, the maximum flow rate of the micropump is $97\muell/min$ for zero pressure difference.

This paper presents a method to fabricate freestanding structures by (100) silicon anisotropic etching and nickel electroless plating. The electroless plating process is simpler than the electroplating, and provides good coating uniformity and improved mechanical properties. Furthermore, the (100) silicon anisotropic etching in KOH solution with being aligned to <100> direction provides vertical (100) sidewalls on etched (100) surface. In this paper, the effects of the nickel electroless plating condition on the properties of electroless plated metal structures are investigated to apply fabrication of micro structures and then various micro structures are fabricated by nickel electroless plating. And then, the structures are released by silicon anisotropic etching in KOH solution with a large gap between the structure and the substrate. The fabricated cantilever structures are $210\mum$. wide, $5\mum$. thick and $15\mum$. over the silicon substrate, and the comb structure has the comb electrodes which are $4\mum$. wide and $4.3\mum$. thick separated by$1\mum$. It is released by silicon anisotropic etching in KOH solution. The gap between the structure and the substrate is $2.5\mum$.
