Just by adjusting the control points iteratively, progressive iterative approximation (PIA) presents an intuitive and straightforward scheme such that the resulting limit curve (surface) can interpolate the original data points. In order to obtain more flexibility, adjusting only a subset of the control points, a new method called local progressive iterative approximation (LPIA) has also been proposed. But to this day, there are two problems about PIA and LPIA: (1) Only an approximation process is discussed, but the accurate convergence curves (surfaces) are not given. (2) In order to obtain an interpolating curve (surface) with high accuracy, recursion computations are needed time after time, which result in a large workload. To overcome these limitations, this paper gives an explicit matrix expression of the control points of the limit curve (surface) by the PIA or LPIA method, and proves that the column vector consisting of the control points of the PIA's limit curve (or surface) can be obtained by multiplying the column vector consisting of the original data points on the left by the inverse matrix of the collocation matrix (or the Kronecker product of the collocation matrices in two direction) of the blending basis at the parametric values chosen by the original data points. Analogously, the control points of the LPIA's limit curve (or surface) can also be calculated by one-step. Furthermore, the $G^1$ joining conditions between two adjacent limit curves obtained from two neighboring data points sets are derived. Finally, a simple LPIA method is given to make the given tangential conditions at the endpoints can be satisfied by the limit curve.

Non-esterified biodiesel fuel is cheaper than esterified that because of a simple manufacturing process that only consists of filtering. Applicability of this on diesel engine with electronic control system was accomplished, then optimization adopting a fractional factorial design and response surface methodology was carried out at 25% and 50% of engine load in this study. Pressure of common rail and injection timing mainly effected on responses as specific fuel oil consumption and nitrogen oxides regardless of engine load. Estimations were 310.3 g/kWh of specific fuel oil consumption and 237 ppm of nitrogen oxides at 25% load, and 233.2 g/kWh of specific fuel oil consumption and 730 ppm of nitrogen oxides at 50% load. Tests to verify these estimations were accomplished and as the results, specific fuel oil consumption was 300.4 g/kWh and NOx was 277 ppm at 25% load and 236.8 g/kWh and 573 ppm at 50% load.

This research compared three methods for producing and processing nanocomposite polypropylene filament yarns with permanent antimicrobial efficiency. The three methods used to mix antimicrobial agents based on silver nano particles with PP were as follows: 1) mixing of PP powder and inorganic nanocomposite filler with the appropriate concentration using a twin-screw extruder and preparing granules, 2) method 1 with a singlerather than twin-screw extruder, and 3) producing the masterbatch by a twin-screw extruder and blending it with PP in the melt spinning process. All pure polypropylene samples and other combined samples had an acceptable spinnability at the spinning temperature of $240^{\circ}C$ and take-up speed of 2,000 m/min. After producing as-spun filament yarns by a pilot plant, melt spinning machine, the samples were drawn, textured and finally weft knitted. The physical and structural properties (e.g., linear density, tenacity, breaking elongation, initial modulus, rupture work, shrinkage and crystallinity) of the as-spun and drawn yarns with constant and variable draw ratios (the variable draw ratio was used to gain a constant breaking elongation of 50%) were investigated and compared, while DSC, SEM and FTIR techniques were used to characterize the samples. Finally, the antibacterial efficiency of the knitted samples was evaluated. The experimental results revealed that the crystallinity reduction of the as-spun yarn obtained from method 1 (5%) was more than that of method 2 (3%), while the crystallinity of the modified as-spun yarns obtained with method 3 remained unchanged compared to pure yarn. However, the drawing procedure compensated for this difference. By applying methods 2 and 3, the drawing generally improved the tenacity and modulus of the modified fibers, whereas method 1 degraded the constant draw ratio. Although the biostatic efficiency of the nanocomposite yarns was excellent with all three methods, the modified fabrics obtained from methods 1 and 2 showed a higher bioactivity.

In this research, anode for SOFC has been manufactured from two different kinds of feedstock materials through thermal spraying process and the properties of the coatings were characterized and compared. One kind of feedstock was manufactured from spray drying method which includes nano-components of NiO, YSZ (300 nm) and graphite. And the other is manufactured by blending the micron size NiO coated graphite, YSZ and graphite powders as feedstock materials. Microstructure, mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of the coatings as-sprayed, after oxidation and after hydrogen reduction containing nano composite which is prepared from spray-dried powders were evaluated and compared with the same properties of the coatings prepared from blended powder feedstock. The coatings prepared from the spray dried powders has better properties as they provide larger triple phase boundaries for hydrogen oxidation reaction and is expected to have lower polarization loss for SOFC anode applications than that of the coatings prepared from blended feedstock. A maximum electrical conductivity of 651 S/cm at $800^{\circ}C$ was achieved for the coatings from spray dried powders which much more than that of the average value.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to obtain a natural antibiotic from Phenol-rich compounds; for the dressing and the treatment of chronic wounds. Methods: The Phenol-rich compound sweet gel was prepared by blending four natural herbal extracts, Acacia catechu (L.F.), Momia (Shilajit), Castanea sativa, and Ephedra sinica stapf, with combination of a sweet gel medium, including honey, maple saps, Phoenix dactylifera L. (date), pomegranate extract and Azadirachta indica gum as a stabilizer. The combinations were screened by using a well-diffusion assay with cloxacillin as a control. Pseudomonas spp. was tested with our novel antimicrobial compound. The zones of inhibition in agar culture were measured for each individual component and for the compound, and the results were compared with those of the control group which had been treated with cloxacillin. Data were expressed as means ${\pm}$ standard deviations. Quantitative analyses were performed using the paired t-test. Results: The antibiotic effect of the Phenol-rich compound sweet gel was statistically shown to be more significant than that of cloxacillin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Our novel approach to fighting the antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas proved to be successful. The Phenol-rich compound sweet gel was found to be suitable for use as an alternative medicine and bioactive dressing material, for the treatment of patients with various types of wounds, including burns, venous leg ulcers, ulcers of various etiologies, leg ulcers on the feet of diabetic, unhealed graft sampling sites, abscesses, boils, surgical wounds, necrotic process, post-operative and neonatal wound infection, and should be considered as an alternative to the usual methods of cure.

본 논문에서는 하이퍼볼릭 평면에서 임의의 분산 데이터 보간을 지역적으로 제어하는 새로운 방법을 개발하였다. 지역적 제어와 관련된 주제는 상호대화형식의 디자인분야에서 매우 중요하다. 특히 본 논문에서 제안한 방법은 하이퍼볼릭 평면상에서 형성되는 genus-N 객체 모델을 상호대화형식으로 디자인하는데 유효하게 적용될 수 있다. 특 변화된 데이터가 미치는 영향이 일정한 지역에만 국한되므로 일반 사용자가 genus-N객체를 상호대화형으로 디자인하기가 훨씬 편리하다. 따라서, 본 연구은 genus-N 객체를 형성하는데 사용한 하이퍼볼릭 평면상에서의 전역적 보간법을 발전시켜 하이퍼볼릭 평면에서의 지역적 보간법개발 및 구현을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이는 다음과 같은 주요 과정을 통하여 구현된다. 먼저, 보간 함수를 지역화하기 위하여 하이퍼볼릭 영역을 임의의 삼각형 패치로 세분화하고 각 데이터에 인접한 삼각형 패치들의 모임을 부 영역이라고 정의한다. 각 부 영역에서 가중치 함수가 설정된다. 마지막으로 중첩된 삼각형 영역의 세 개의 가중치를 혼합함으로써 지역적 보간 함수가 완성된다. 그 결과로서, 여러 개의 샘플 데이터 및 함수를 사용하여 전역적MQ 보간법과 비교한다.

제올라이트 분말을 첨가한 저밀도 폴리에틸렌 (LDPE) 복합 필름의 $CO_2,\;O_2,\;N_2$에 대한 기체 투과성을 조사하였다. 제올라이트 첨가 필름은 금속 양이온 혹은 계면 활성제로 표면 개질한 제올라이트 분말을 $20 wt\%$ 함유하는 LDPE 마스터배치를 제조한 후 이를 LDPE 수지와 용융혼합하여 중공필름 성형법으로 제조하였다. 최종적으로 제올라이트 분말이 0, 3, 5, 10 wt$\%$ 함유된 복합 필름을 얻었으며 이를 기체 투과도 측정에 사용하였다. 필름의 기체 투과성은 부피측정법에 기초한 기체 투과도 측정장치를 제작하여 분석하였다. 모든 경우에 있어 제올라이트 함량이 증가함에 따라 기체 투과도는 감소한 후 점차 증가하는 경향을 보여주었다. 계면 활성제로 표면 개질한 제올라이트 입자는 매트릭스 수지와의 계면 접착력을 향상시켰지만 표면 개질 이온의 종류에 따른 필름의 기체 투과 특성에는 뚜렷한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 제올라이트 첨가 필름의 경우 각 기체의 투과도에 대한 온도 의존성의 차이는 순수 LDPE 필름에 비해 다소 작게 나타났다.

The impact of different mixing methods and sintering temperatures on the microstructure and piezoelectric properties of PZNN-PZT ceramics is investigated. To improve the sinterability and piezoelectric properties of these ceramics, the composition of $0.13Pb((Zn_{0.8}Ni_{0.2})_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.87Pb(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})O_3$ (PZNN-PZT) containing a Pb-based relaxor component is selected. Two methods are used to create the powder for the PZNN-PZT ceramics. The first involves blending all source powders at once, followed by calcination. The second involves the preferential creation of columbite as a precursor, by reacting NiO with $Nb_2O_5$ powder. Subsequently, PZNN-PZT powder can be prepared by mixing the columbite powder, PbO, and other components, followed by an additional calcination step. All the PZNN-PZT powder samples in this study show a nearly-pure perovskite phase. High-density PZNN-PZT ceramics can be fabricated using powders prepared by a two-step calcination process, with the addition of 0.3 wt% MnO2 at even relatively low sintering temperatures from $800^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. The grain size of the ceramics at sintering temperatures above $900^{\circ}C$ is increased to approximately $3{\mu}m$. The optimized PZNN-PZT piezoelectric ceramics show a piezoelectric constant ($d_{33}$) of 360 pC/N, an electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$) of 0.61, and a quality factor ($Q_m$) of 275.

기체분리공정에서 사용되는 분리막은 높은 기체 투과 및 분리성능과 고온·고압 조건에서 높은 안정성을 보여야 한다. 하지만 고분자분리막(특히, 유리상 고분자)은 응축 가능한 기체 분자(예를 들어, CO2, H2S, hydrocarbon 등)에 노출되면 고분자 사슬이 부풀어 오르는 가소화 현상을 보여 안정성 측면에서 한계를 보인다. 이러한 가소화 현상은 고압의 복합기체 분리공정에서 선택도를 감소시켜 장기적으로는 고분자분리막이 분리공정에 도입될 수 없는 문제를 가져온다. 이러한 가소화 현상 문제를 해결하기 위해서 분리막 연구자들은 분리막 열처리, 고분자 혼합, 고분자구조의 열적 재배열, 혼합매질분리막 제작, 가교화 방법 등을 통하여 분리막의 가소화 저항을 향상시켰다. 본 총설에서는 고분자 분리막의 가소화 저항의 개념 및 현상에 대해서 알아보고 이를 해결할 수 있는 인자들과 그와 연관된 연구들을 살펴보도록 할 것이다.
