Polyolefin is one of the most important commodity polymers having excellent physical properties and cost competitiveness, which has continuously broadened their market in response to a heavy demand from industry. However, the lack of polarity in polyolefin has limited its applications, especially where interactions with other materials are important. In view of the above, the incorporation of polar functional groups in polyolefin has been widely attempted. Especially, the preparations of segmented modified polyolefin copolymers, such as block and graft copolymers have been extensively investigated, since the loss of the original properties of polyolefin can be minimized while the polar segments can endow interactions with other materials. Living radical polymerization (LRP) method can be one of the most attractive synthetic tools for the preparation of the modified polyolefin block or graft copolymers. In this review, progress on the preparation of the polyolefin based block or graft copolymers through LRP technique is briefly summarized.

Alginate obtained from marine brown algae, is a copolymer with repeating units of $\alpha$-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-L-guluronic acid(G) and $\beta$-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-D-mannuronic acid(M). It has good properties such as biocompatibility, non-toxicity. and hydrophilicity. However, alginate alone cannot be electrospun due to high viscosity and conductivity. To solve this problem. electro spinning of sodium alginate(SA) was performed by blending with poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO) and poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) in this study. Characteristics of SA/PEO nanofibers and SA/PVA nanofibers were estimated by SEM and XRD analyses. Optimal nanofiber webs are obtained from 2/2 wt% of SA/PEO and 2/7 wt% of SA/PVA. SA/PEO and SA/PVA nanofiber webs may have potentials for tissue engineering scaffold and wound dressing.

Demand on pile foundation is rapidly increasing, as an investment for the social overhead capital getting enlarged in Korea. Steel piles are in general use in construction due to their workability and superior durability. But the recent global rise in steel price led the engineers to seeking for an economical alternative that still has equivalent characteristics as compared with the steel pile. In this regard a composite pile, in which steel suitable to resist the tensile stress are used in the upper part of the pile, while less expensive PHC pile is adopted in the lower part of the pile where axial stress should prevail, was studied and both pile loading test and load transfer test were performed for the piles which have been constructed for the foundation of a bridge in Korea. These test results and some theories already issued were compared, and it was shown that p-y nonlinear analysis gave rise to similar results.

The resource-based estimating based on standard unit price of construction work was estimated by multiplying the price per standard unit of work on the amount of labor, material, equipment use time. However, limitation of the resource-based estimating way does not adequately reflect the actual transactions prices. On the subject of water tunnel excavation as a new attempt to overcome these limitations, this study analyzed productivity by work type into cutter inspection/ exchange, TBM maintenance, TBM inspection/refueling, subsequent installations, tramcar, operating change, a cave-underground reinforcement / rock reinforcement, safety / meetings and analyzed actual cost estimating and the net advance rate based on this analysis result. Actual cost estimating calculation approach presented in this study can be utilized as a useful tool to predict the actual cost estimating in the TBM water tunnels field.

최근 화합물반도체를 이용한 집광형 고효율 태양전지가 차세대 태양전지로서 주목을 받기 시작하였다. GaAs를 주축으로 하는 고신뢰성 고효율 태양전지는 높은 가격으로 인해 응용이 제한되어왔으나, 고집광 기술을 접목하여 태양전지 재료 사용을 수 백배 이상 줄이면서도 동시에 효율을 극도로 향상시킴으로써 차세대 태양전지로 활발히 개발되고 있다. GaAs 기판을 이용한 다중접합의 태양전지는 n-type GaAs 기판 위에 버퍼 층, GaInP back surface field 층, GaAs p-n 접합, AlInP 창층, GaAs p-n 접합의 터널접합층, 상부전지로서 GaInP p-n 접합, AlInP 창층 순서로 epi-taxial structure를 형성하고 전극과 무반사막을 구성한다. 이러한 태양전지의 효율을 결정하는 요인 중, 상부 전극은 전기적 및 광학적 손실을 일으키는 원인으로써 최소화되어야 한다. 그런데 이러한 이중접합 화합물 태양전지에 집광한 태양광을 조사할 경우, 태양광을 집광한 만큼 전류가 증가하게 되며 증가한 전류가 전극에 흐르면서 전기적 효율 손실을 유발하게 된다. 따라서, 집광형 화합물 반도체 태양전지의 전극에 의한 손실에 대한 연구가 선행되어 저항에서 손실되는 전력을 최소화하여야만 전기적 손실이 낮은 고집광 태양전지 개발이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 전극 두께가 0.5${\mu}m$인 GaInP/GaAs 이중접합 태양전지 (효율 25.5% : AM1.5G)의 집광시 효율 변화에 대해서 연구하였다. 이후 이러한 효율 변화가 전극 구조의 최적화에 의해서 개선 될 수 있는지를 삼차원 모의실험을 통해서 확인하였다. 모의실험에는 Crosslight 사의 APSYS를 사용하였고, material parameter를 보정하여 실제 실험 결과에 근사 시킨 후 전극 구조에 대한 최적화를 하였다.

산화물 반도체는 넓은 밴드갭을 가지고 있어 가시광에서 투명하며 높은 이동도로 디스플레이 구동 회로 집적에 유리하다. 또한 가격 및 공정 측면에서도 기존의 Si 기판 소자에 비해 여러 장점을 가지고 있어 차세대 디스플레이의 핵심 기술로 산화물반도체에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구는 RF 동시 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 Zn-Sn-O 박막을 제조하고, 그 전기적, 광학적, 구조적 특성에 대해 조사하였다. 일정한 증착 온도($100^{\circ}C$)에서 ZnO와 $SnO_2$ 타켓의 인가 파워를 조절하여 Sn/(Zn+Sn) 성분비가 약 40~85%인 Zn-Sn-O 박막을 제조하였다. Sn 함량이 증가할수록 박막의 비저항은 약 $2{\times}10^{-1}$ (Sn 45%)에서 약 $2\;{\times}\;10^{-2}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (Sn 67%)까지 감소하다가 다시 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이 때 캐리어 농도는 $3\;{\times}\;10^{18}$에서 $4\;{\times}\;10^{19}\;cm^{-3}$으로 증가하였으며, 이동도는 11에서 $8\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$로 약간 감소하였다. XRD분석결과, 제조된 모든 Zn-Sn-O 박막은 비정질 구조를 가짐을 확인하였다. 투과율은 박막 내 Sn함량 증가에 따라 감소하나 모든 시편이 약 70%이상의 투과도를 나타내었다. Zn-Sn-O 박막의 Ga 도핑 영향을 확인하기 위해 ZnO 타켓 대신 갈륨이 5.7 wt.% 도핑된 GZO 타켓을 사용하여 동일한 공정조건에서 박막을 제조하였다. Ga이 첨가된 Zn-Sn-O 박막은 구조적 특성과 광학적 특성에서는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 전기적 특성의 뚜렷한 변화가 관찰되었다. Sn 함량이 45%인 Zn-Sn-O 박막의 경우, 캐리어 농도가 $3.1\;{\times}\;10^{18}$에서 Ga 도핑 효과로 인해 $1.7\;{\times}\;10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$으로 크게 감소하고 이동도는 11에서 $20\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$로 증가하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 Zn-Sn-O 비정질 박막에 Ga을 도핑함으로써 산화물 반도체재료로서 요구되는 물성을 만족시킬 수 있다는 가능성을 제시하였다.

Permanent magnet synchronous motors can secure high power density and efficiency, but have problems in that the materials required for manufacturing are expensive and design is somewhat more difficult than induction motors. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an optimal motor that considers both efficiency and maintenance convenience and related control research. In addition, driving by a practical motor leads to a request to increase the highest efficiency in a narrow rated range, an increase in average efficiency in the entire electric driving range, and an increase in average output. Due to this movement, a reluctance motor that does not require a permanent magnet is being considered as an alternative. In this paper, in line with the issues of the times that require the development of future technology that can replace rare earth permanent magnet motors and the technological preemption of rare earth reduction motors and rare earth motors, switched reluctance motors without permanent magnet For motor, SRM), modeling through machine language (C language) and the characteristics of SRM accordingly are to be studied.

Among various industries, the textile industry uses the largest amount of water for coloring textiles which leads to a large amount of wastewater containing various kinds of dye. There are various methods for the removal of dye such as flocculation, ozone treatment, adsorption, etc. But these processes are not much successful due to the issue of recycling which enhances the cost. Alternatively, the membrane separation process for the treatment of dye in wastewater is already documented as the best available technique. Polymeric membrane and ceramic membrane are two separate groups of separation membranes. Advantages of ceramic membranes include the ease of cleaning, long lifetime, good chemical and thermal resistance, and mechanical stability. Ceramic membranes can be prepared from various sources and natural materials like clay, zeolite, and fly ash are very cheap and easily available. In this review separation of wastewater is classified into mainly three groups: ultrafiltration (UF), microfiltration (MF), and nanofiltration (NF) process.

Among the electrical components mounted on railroad cars, the largest load is the main transformer, which has a low power density of 0.2~0.4 MVA/ton due to the low operating frequency(60Hz), which is an important factor for weight reduction. Therefore, research on molded transformers, semiconductor transformers, etc. is being actively conducted at Domestic and foreign in order to improve the main transformer for railway vehicles. Meanwhile, attempts are being made to apply a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) to replace an induction motor as a traction motor that is mostly applied to domestic and foreign railway vehicles. Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) can secure higher power density and efficiency compared to induction motors, but have disadvantages in that the materials required for manufacturing are expensive and design is somewhat difficult compared to induction motors. Considering these problems, in this paper, we suggest that a small and lightweight semiconductor transformer is applied, and a simple structure, high torque, low cost SRM can be applied in accordance with the requirements such as weight reduction and high efficiency of railroad vehicles. content.
