Developing effective tools for predicting absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion properties and toxicity (ADME/T) of new chemical entities in the early stage of drug design is one of the most important tasks in drug discovery and development today. As one of these attempts, support vector machines (SVM) has recently been exploited for the prediction of ADME/T related properties. However, two problems in SVM modeling, i.e. feature selection and parameters setting, are still far from solved. The two problems have been shown to be crucial to the efficiency and accuracy of SVM classification. In particular, the feature selection and optimal SVM parameters setting influence each other, which indicates that they should be dealt with simultaneously. In this account, we present an integrated practical solution, in which genetic-based algorithm (GA) is used for feature selection and grid search (GS) method for parameters optimization. hERG ion-channel inhibitor classification models of ADME/T related properties has been built for assessing and testing the proposed GA-GS-SVM. We generated 6 different models that are 3 different single models and 3 different ensemble models using training set - 1891 compounds and validated with external test set - 175 compounds. We compared single model with ensemble model to solve data imbalance problems. It was able to improve accuracy of prediction to use ensemble model.

연료전지 핵심 부품 가운데 하나인 분리판(Bipolar plate)는 막전극체(MEA), 기체확산층(GDL)과 함께 발생한 전류의 수집 및 전달, 반응 가스의 수송, 반응/생성물의 수송 및 제거, 반응열 제거 등을 위한 냉각수 전달 등의 다양한 역할을 담당한다. 이러한 역할을 위하여 분리판은 우수한 전기전도성, 열전도성, 화학적 안정성이 요구되어 진다. 기존의 연료전지용 분리판은 흑연계 소재 및 수지와 흑연을 혼합한 복합 흑연 재료를 통해 제조하여 요구 되어지는 물성을 만족시켜 왔으나 흑연계 분리판의 경우 강도 및 가스 밀폐성 측면에서 낮은 특성을 보이며 특히 고가의 제조 공정 비용과 낮은 양산성으로 인하여 자동차 연료전지 상용화에 수많은 해결 과제를 안고 있었다. 흑연계 분리판의 이러한 문제점을 대체하기 위한 연구로 최근 금속계 분리판의 적용 및 개발이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히 금속계 분리판은 양산 제조 공정이 적용 가능하여 대량생산이 가능하며 자동차 연료전지 스택의 경량화 및 박판화가 가능하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나, 박판의 스테인리스강을 소재로 적용한 금속분리판의 양산을 위하여 반드시 선행되어야 할 연구가 바로 금형 코팅 연구이다. 일반 자동차 생산 금형을 평균 약 50만타로 예측한다면 연료전지 금속계 분리판 성형 금형의 현재 수명은 약 10만타로 추정 가능하다. 이러한 원인은 고하중의 프레스 사용과 정밀 금형으로 인한 극한 공정 조건으로 야기된 결과이며 문제 해결을 위하여 성형 금형에 PVD 코팅 적용 연구를 진행하였다. 성형 금형의 PVD 코팅 적용을 통하여 금형 교체 주기 감소를 통한 생산 원가 절감 및 이형성 개선을 통한 성형성 확보를 목표로 본 연구를 진행하였다.

Among various mechanisms for ER phenomena, the electrostatic polarization and conduction models were known as the most promising theoretical models. However, many inherited defects have limited their uses for the development of effective ER fluids. To resolve these problems, extended Maxwell-Wagner polarization model with Onsager theory was developed. It was observed that the extended model resolved the problems, suggesting that the extended model can be used for the development of effect ER fluids.

Because communication facilitates behaviors that are critical for survival and reproduction, it is central to the study of behavior and evolution. One of the most important and difficult issues with respect to communication has been the definition of communication itself. Broadly, it can be defined as an exchange of information from a signaler to a receiver. However, evolution of a signal is likely possible only under conditions in which both the signaler and receiver increase fitness from the exchange of information, often referred to as "true communication." The three primary sensory channels of communication used by animals are chemical, visual, and acoustic. Chemical signals are the oldest and most widespread method of communication. Visual and acoustic signals convey a great deal of information due to ease of modulation, flexibility of signal production, and fast transmission. The most widespread contexts in which animals communicate are sexual interaction and conflict resolution. Signals used for sexual interaction typically contain information about species identity and sexual attractiveness, whereas signals used for conflict resolution may contain information about resource holding potential. Other contexts under which animals communicate include territorial defense, parent-offspring interactions, social integration, sharing of environmental information, and auto-communication.

In this study, the students' responses on the chemistry items of in the general science of College Scholastics Ability Test (CSAT) implemented for the past 3 years since 1999 were investigated. The number of items by content and inquiry process, the average percent correct by content and inquiry process, the distribution of items by the level of percent correct, and the items with high and/or low percent correct were analysed. There were the fewest items in 'environment' area, especially in 'ozon layer', no test item had been made. The most difficult content area was 'acid rain' in 'environment'. By inquiry process, the most number of items belonged to 'analyzing & interpreting data', and 'identifying problems & formulating hypothesis' was the most difficult process. No test item came under the level of 'very difficult', and many items under the 'easy' or 'very easy' level. Students were generally poor at solving test items demanding several concepts, and very good at simply requiring basic concept treated in lower grade. Educational implications are discussed.

CuNWs(Copper nanowires) are attracting attention as a transparent electrode material because of their excellent electrical conductivity, high mechanical flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. However, since copper nanowires are easily oxidized, there is a disadvantage that properties of the transparent electrode may be deteriorated due to this, and researches are being conducted to improve this. Accordingly, in this review, various methods and studies to prevent oxidation and improve stability of copper nanowire transparent electrodes by using coating materials such as carbon-based materials, metals, and conductive polymers are introduced. Through this, we intend to provide solutions to solve the problem of development and oxidation of copper nanowire-based technology.

Direct Borohydride Fuel Cell은 알칼리 붕소 수소화물의 수용액을 이용하는 연료전지로 연료의 직접 산화반응을 통해 기존의 DMFC(직접 메탄을 연료전지)보다 높은 전류밀도와 OUV(Open Circuit Voltage)를 나타낸다. 또한 액체 연료를 사용하므로 장치 구성이 간단하며, 사용하는 연료가 반응성이 높은 알칼리 붕소 수소화물로 이루어져 있기 때문에 탄화수소 계열의 액체 연료와 달리 전기화학 반응이 비귀금속 전극에서도 쉽게 이루어질 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다 하지만 강알칼리 조건에서 전기화학 반응이 진행되므로 이에 적합한 재료로 장치를 구성해야 하며, 액체 상태의 연료가 전해질을 투과하는 현상인 크로스오버 문제를 해결해야 하고, 생성물인 $BO_2$-가 침적되어 전지효율을 떨어뜨리는 것을 방지해야 하는 문제점이 있다. 또한 알칼리 붕소 수소화물이 물과 반응하여 수소를 발생시키는 hydrolysis 반응을 억제하여야 하고 직접 산화반응만이 진행될 수 있도록 전지를 구성해야 연료효율을 높일 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수소 생성반응일 hydrolysis 반응은 억제하고 연료의 직접 산화반응만을 진행시키기 위한 전극촉매에 대하여 연구하였다. 일반적인 저온형 연료전지의 전극촉매로 사용하는 Pt등의 귀금속 촉매와, 귀금속 촉매를 대체할 수 있는 Ni등의 비귀금속 촉매를 그 연구 대상으로 하였으며, 평가 방법으로는 unit cell station을 이용한 단위전지 성능측정 실험과 Potentiostat/Galvanostat을 이용한 half cell 실험을 병행하여 수행하였다.

Illegal waste dumping is one of the major problems that the government agency monitoring water quality has to face. One solution to this problem is to find an efficient way of managing and supervising the water quality under various kinds of conditions. In this article we establish WQMA (water quality monitoring algorithm) based on the time series intervention model. It turns out thatWQMA is quite successful in detecting illegal waste dumping.
