The AgI systems containing various mol% of AgBr and CuI were synthesized. X-ray analyses revealed that all synthesized systems had face centered cubic structures. Using impedance analyzer, electrical conductivity measurements of these systems were carried out at temperatures from 20 to 200$^{\circ}C$. From this measurement, it was found that the activation energies of these systems were in the range 0.6∼0.7 eV and the system containing 5 mol% AgBr showed the highest conductivity and the smallest activity energy.

In this paper, the output power improvement of Push-Push FET DRO by adding the identical DR at the drain port as one used in the gate port, has been theoretically investigated. The investigation shows that the DR located between two microstrip lines locks the phase difference of two FET's outputs at 180 degree and improves the output power of Push-Push FET DRO. Since this effect can be used for correcting the impedance difference between two FETs output circuits and the electrical length error of the power combiner at the output circuit of Push-Push DRO, which may occur when fabricate the oscillator, the oscillator with an additional DR can be useful structure for fabricating oscillator.

Due to its high power density, long cycle life and clean nature supercapacitors are widely used for improving the dynamic characteristics of the new and renewable energy sources and extending the battery run-time and life. In this paper improved dynamic model of the supercapacitor is developed by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy technique. The developed model can be used to accurately estimate the dynamic behaviour of the supercapacitor and calculate the exact capacitance value at a certain state of charges. The model of the supercapacitor in the frequency domain is equivalently transformed into that in the time domain for Matlab/Simulink simulaton. The simulation data shows fine agreements with experimental results, thereby proving the validity and the accuracy of the developed model.

In this paper, an inkjet-printed capacitive touch pad is proposed. This touch pad detects contacts of human finger by detecting changes in effective capacitance due to electrical impedance of human finger. A flexible, low-cost and disposable paper is used as a substrate. Inkjet printing technology makes the fabrication fast, simple and environmentally friendly. Measured capacitances of the touched and untouched states are in the range of 163 to 182pF and 218 to 272pF, respectively. The differences in the measured capacitance of each state are sufficiently large to recognize that a finger has made contact with touch pad.

Corrosion of aluminum in 0.1 M HCl solution in the absence and presence of ${\beta}$-blocker inhibitors (atenolol, propranolol, timolol and nadolol) was investigated using weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The inhibition efficiency increased with inhibitor concentration and decreased with rise of temperature. Potentiodynamic polarization curves revealed that they acted as cathodic inhibitors. Some thermodynamic parameters were calculated and discussed. All inhibitors were adsorbed on Al surface obeying Frumkin isotherm. All EIS tests exhibited one capacitive loop which indicates that the corrosion reaction is controlled by charge transfer process. The inhibition efficiencies of all test methods were in good agreement.

The paper introduces the RFID location based Tree Management System (TMS) using UHF RFID tag and GPS. The bolt shape tag has been developed since the wood material has high dielectric constant. Since the characteristics and impedance of tag antenna can be changed by the material next to the tag, the plastic bolt shape tag antenna has to be carefully designed with consideration of the high dielectric constant of the wood material. The RFID TMS system has been utilized with the bolt shape tag antenna and GPS. The TMS system uses and links Google map to locate the location of the trees. Therefore, this system allow us to manage the trees economically and efficiently.

Objective: Obesity threatens not only the problem of beauty but also health. Furthermore, it could be harmful a chronic disease to increase mortality rate. A purpose of this study is to show a effect of obesity control as developing a herbal medicine, Gyeongshingangjeehwan16 (GGEx16), in order to control obesity that is a harmful factor for healthy. Method : In order to prove the effect of GGEx16, BMI, fat distribution, fat control and fitness score which are closely related with obesity are considered as variables. Each variable is measured, for statistical analysis, using measurement implement of InBody 3.0 which applied a theory of bioimpedence analysis. Result and Conclusion : As a result of statistical analysis for four variables, it was improved that there are the improved effect for obesity because GGEx16 is statistically meaningful better than prior to taking.

Steel plates coated by self-healable polymer still can be rusted since it takes time to be healed. In this study, dual self-healing coating material is developed using corrosion inhibitor (DTBEDA) which can form hindered urea (HUB) as reversible cross-linking bond at the same time. Developed dual self-healing polymer is coated on steel plate, and scratch healing property was investigated by surgical blades and nano/micro indentation tester. The anticorrosion effect of DTBEDA was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

In recent years, the construction industry has a tendency to increase of high-rise builidngs. High rise buildings can use limited space efficiently. But High rise buildings have problem that have extremely heavy weight. Various studies are being conducted to reduce the weight of buildings. Although lightweight aggregate is a meterial that can effectively reduce the weight of buildings, the strength of the aggregate itself is weak and the absorption rate is high, so the strength of the ITZ(Interfacial Transition Zone) area is weak. Therefore, it is essential to improve the interfacial area when using lightweight aggregates. In this study, an experiment was conducted to improve the adhesion between the aggregate and cement paste and to strengthen the interfacial area by coating the surface of the lighteight aggregate with Blast Furnace Slag. To confirm the improvement, compressive strength and EIS(Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) measurements were perfromed. Using EIS, the change in electrical resistance of the cement hardened body was confirmed. As a result, it was confirmed that the lightweight aggregate coated on the surface showed highter compressive strength and electrical resistance than the non-coated lightweight aggregate, and that the coating material was filled in the interfacial area and inside the aggregate that helped to strengthen the compresssive strength and higher electrical resistance.

In this paper it was discussed and compared measured loudspeaker impedance curve with ones reconstructed by TS parameters estimated using four kinds of parameter estimation methods developed in frequency domain. Frequency dependent parameters were introduced and derived using least square error minimization technique. For known dynamic mass TS parameter estimation methods were reviewed and also proved non-uniqueness of these parameters by simulation method. Minimum phase transformation was adopted to derive phase information from magnitude of loudspeaker electrical impedance curve measured by one channel analyzer.
