The polarized direction of MT field was analyzed using the MT dataset measured in the Korean Peninsula. The atmospherics above 1 Hz has a large dispersion of polarized direction, whereas the Schumann resonance near 8 Hz exhibits the predominant direction ranging from $N20^{\circ}W$ to NS. The electromagnetic field variations below 0.1 Hz, induced by magnetic pulsations, show a strongly polarized direction of nearly NS. It results from the regular pulsations since the regular pulsation fields, driven by Alfv.n's wave in the magnetosphere, has a worldwide predominant direction of NS. The MT field strongly polarized along NS direction causes the poorly behaved XY impedance.

An electro-hydraulic manipulator using hydraulic actuators has many nonlinear elements, and its parameter fluctuations are greater than those of an electrically driven manipulator. So it is relatively difficult to realize not only stable contact work but also accurate force control for the autonomous assembly tasks using hydraulic manipulators. In this report, we applied a compliance control which is based on the position control by a disturbance observer for our manipulator system. And a reference trajectory modification method is proposed in order to achieve accurate force control even though the stiffness and position of environment change. Experimental results show that highly robust force tracking by a 6-link electro-hydraulic manipulator could be achieved under various environment conditions.

This paper presents the design and measured performances of an unequal dual-band power divider using lumped elements. After the divider is designed using the conventional single band Wilkinson topology with lumped elements, we obtained the dual band characteristics with filter conversion method. This design method has the features of compact size and easy fabrication, because the high impedance transmission line realizes the lumped elements of equivalent circuit. As an example, an 2:1 divider has been designed and measured at 880 MHz and 1650 MHz in order to show the validity of the proposed unequal divider. The measured performances of the unequal power divider agree with the simulation results.

Thermally activated batteries have good stability, reliability and long shelf life. Due to these characteristics and operational mechanism, thermal batteries are usually applied to military power sources. Especially, Li/$FeS_2$ thermal batteries, which are used mostly in these days, use LiCl-KCl and LiBr-LiCl-LiF as electrolytes. The electrochemistry of thermal batteries have been researched for long time, however, electrochemical study using impedance spectroscopy was not published so much. Through this research, microscopic electrochemical research was investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(E.I.S). Electrolyte effects on Li/$FeS_2$ thermal battery was researched changing electrolytes, LiCl-KCl and LiBr-LiCl-LiF. Additionally, the salts, which are added to electrolytes, effects on thermal battery were researched. It is expected that the impedance spectroscopy analysis is applicable to not only thermal battery electrochemical study effectively, but also, thermal battery developments.

In this study, Grafoil$^{TM}$ which has comparable electric resistance and chemical stability but is flexible, fragile, and cheap material was adopted as bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) having only one straight line flow channel. Because of its flexibility, pressurizations of cell with various pressures showed different operating characteristics compared to ordinary graphite-used PEMFC. While performances of both cells decreased as these were pressurized, investigation of ohmic and faradaic resistance by electrochemical impedance measurement indicated different tendency of change. Ohmic resistance of graphite-used cell increased with increasing pressure, which is reversed in Grafoil$^{TM}$-used cell. It is speculated that effective chemical reaction area is decreased with increasing pressure in case of graphite-used one, but because of flexible property of Grafoil$^{TM}$, gas diffusion layer in Grafoil$^{TM}$-used cell was well-activated. Different rate of change of faradaic resistances in both cells support this supposition. However, although optimum point of pressurization is found, it is required to investigate other operating conditions because of low performance compared to graphite-used cell.

본 연구는 플라즈마 전해 산화 (PEO) 및 RF (Radio Frequency) 스퍼터링을 이용한 2 단계 접근법에 의해 처리 된 MgO / Ni-Cr의 고내식성 이중층 코팅을 제조하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 $100mA/cm^2$ 교류 조건에서 180 s PEO를 한 후 150W 에서 900s RF 스퍼터링을 수행 하였다. 코팅의 형태는 주사전자현미경(SEM)을 사용하여 관찰되었으며 코팅의 상조성은 X-선 회절(XRD) 및 X-선 광전자 분광법(XPS)을 사용하여 분석하였다. SEM 이미지는 스퍼터링 된 Ni-Cr이 크랙의 대부분과 미세한 미세 공극을 덮어 코팅 결함이 감소함을 보여 주었다. 따라서, 코팅 된 샘플의 거칠기 값은 스퍼터링 공정 후에 감소되었다. 단면 이미지로부터, 스퍼터링된 코팅층은 낮은 두께 때문에 거의 검출되지 않았다. EDS, XRD 및 XPS를 사용한 조성 분석은 금속 상태의 형태로 Ni 및 Cr 존재를 나타내었고 XPS에서 NiCr2O4 부동태 피막이 검출되었다. MgO / Ni-Cr 이중층 코팅의 내부식성은 MgO / Ni-Cr 이중층을 가진 샘플의 금속 원소와 비교하여 우수한 부식 특성을 나타내는 전위 역학적 분극 시험 및 전기 화학적 임피던스 분광법으로 평가 하였다.

Coil spring steels from the automobile suspension part after field exposure for 10 years and those after anti-corrosion validation test in proving ground of 5,000 ~ 10,000 km were examined for corrosion damages. Partial loss of paint, accumulation of corrosion product, and cracking of paint and superficial material were observed. The surface and subsurface region of spring steels had compressive residual stress and high hardness by shot peening. The surface hardness values of the specimens were 620 ~ 670 Hv. They were 60 ~ 80 Hv higher than those of the samples taken from the middle part of the spring. The maximum compressive stress was -916 ~ -1208 MPa measured at depth of about $100{\mu}m$. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that the resistances of charge transfer and the paint layer of the spring steels ranged from several tens to millions ${\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$. The resistance of the field samples was much higher than that of the proving ground samples used in this study, implying that the proving ground test condition would be more corrosive than the field environment.

본 연구에서는 입계의 성질을 이용한 PTCR 재료에 입계 modifier로서 $Bi_{2}$$O_{3}$와 BN을 첨가하고 입계의 미세구조와 결함농도를 변화시켜 이에 따른 소결 및 전기적 특성변화를 TMA, XRD, 복합 임피던스방법 등을 이용하여 해석하였다. 실험 결과 Y이 도우핑된 BaT$iO_{3}$ PTCR 재료에 $Bi_{2}$$O_{3}$를 첨가하였을때 약 0.1mol%까지 고용이 되는 것으로 밝혀졌다. $Bi_{2}$$O_{3}$를 고용한계 이하로 첨가시에는 생성되는 vacancy등의 결함으로 말미암아 Y-BaT$iO_{3}$의 치밀화가 촉진되었으나, 그 이상 첨가하면 치밀화 뿐만 아니라 결정립 성장도 억제되었다.$Bi_{2}$$O_{3}$ 결정립 내부에 Ba와 Ti vacancy가 동시에 생길 수 있어 고온저항이 높아짐을 알 수 있었다. BN은 BaT$iO_{3}$에 고용이 되지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌으며 $B_{2}$O/wub/3를 주성분으로한 액상형성으로 인하여 저온에서의 급격한 치밀화가 관찰되었다. 또 Ba-Y-Ti-B-O의 비정질 상이 tripie junction에 존재함으로서 상온저항이 크게 변화하였으며, PTCR jump도 높아졌다.

Analysis has been made of the anti-corrosive property of organic coating under the shear stress of the flow by means of AC impedance method. Marine anti-corrosive painted panels were placed in the water channel with varying flow rate, thereby experiencing varying flow shear stress on the surfaces. The velocities of the salt water were ranged from 1.48 to 5.2 m/s and the coating thickness of from $70{\mu}m\;to\;140{\mu}m$. For all coating thicknesses investigated, the poorer anti-corrosive property and the lower adhesion strength have been found for the higher shear stress. It has been found that the shear stress accelerates the aging of organic marine coatings.

In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), various image reconstruction algorithms have been used in order to compute the internal resistivity distribution of the unknown object with its electric potential data at the boundary. Mathematically the EIT image reconstruction algorithm is a nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem. This paper presents a new combined method based on genetic algorithm(GA) and modified Newton-Raphson(mNR) algorithm via two-step approach for the solution of the static EIT inverse problem. In the first step, each mesh is classified into three mesh groups: target, background, and temporary groups. The mNR algorithm can be used to determine the region of group. In the second step, the values of these resistivities are determined using genetic algorithm. Computer simulations with the 32 channels synthetic data show that the spatial resolution of reconstructed images by the proposed scheme is improved compared to that of the mNR algorithm at the expense of increased computational burden.
