We present a miniature Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (micro-DMFC) using platinum sputtered microcolumn electrodes with a limited amount of fuel. We use the microcolumn electrode in order to improve the power density of the micro-DMFC that consists of two electrodes and polymer electrolyte. We also design the built-in fuel chamber in the anode for the portable electronics applications. We design and fabricate both microcolumn and planar electrodes, having an identical projective area of 5mm${\times}$5mm. The diffusion current density of the microcolumn electrode is 1.73 times higher than that of the planar electrode at electrode potential of 1.1V in the half-cell test. The micro-DMFC based on the microcolumn electrodes shows the maximum power of 10.8$\pm$7.54㎼(43.23$\pm$0.16㎼/$\textrm{cm}^2$) at the projective area of 5mm${\times}$5mm, while the planar electrode micro-DMFC shows the maximum power of 0.81$\pm$0.42㎼(3.24$\pm$1.68㎼/$\textrm{cm}^2$) at the same projective area. The micro-DMFC based on the microcolumn electrodes shows 13 times higher power density that the micro-DMFC based on the planar electrodes does.

기존 데이터 스크램블링 기법은 랜덤한 코드를 생성한다. 이와 다르게 우리는 생성하는 코드의 밀도를 다르게 만드는 가변 밀도 스크램블링 기법을 제안한다. 먼저 코드 밀도를 다르게 만드는 조건과 방법에 대해 설명한다. 다음으로 가변 밀도 스크램블링 기법을 플래시 메모리에 적용하여 특정 셀 상태가 더 많이 발생하도록 한다. 특히 플래시 메모리의 에러율을 제한하기 위하여, 가변 밀도 스크램블링 기법은 코드의 밀도를 조절하여 모든 셀 상태 중 중간 상태를 가지는 셀 비율을 높일 수 있다. 윈도우즈와 리눅스 시스템의 데이터에 가변 밀도 스크램블링 기법을 적용하였으며, 실험 결과는 가변 밀도 스크램블링 기법이 중간과 가까운 상태를 가지는 셀의 비율을 증가시킴을 보여준다.

멀티 레벨 낸드 플래시 메모리는 한 셀에 2 비트 이상의 정보를 저장하는 구조이고, 비트 위치별 채널 LLR의 밀도 함수 l-밀도가 비대칭 특성을 가지고 있다. 이런 특성은 이진 무기억 대칭 채널 조건에서 설계된 오류 정정부호의 성능이 제대로 발휘되지 못하게 할 뿐만 아니라, 멀티 레벨 낸드 플래시 메모리용 연판정 복호를 수행하는 이진 오류 정정 부호의 설계도 어렵게 한다. 본 논문에서 밀도 미러링과 EM 알고리즘을 이용하여 오류 정정 부호 설계를 위한 차선책을 소개한다. 밀도 미러링은 EM 알고리즘을 적용하기 전에 0 부호어를 전송한 경우로 가정할 수 있도록 하기 위해서 채널 LLR을 처리하는 과정이고, 이후 채널 LLR l-밀도를 EM 알고리즘을 적용하여 K개의 성분으로 이루어진 대칭 가우시안 혼합 밀도로 근사화하는 방법을 소개한다.

For proton exchange membrane fuel cell, it is very important to design the flow channel on separation plate optimally to maximize the current density at same electrochemical reaction surface and reduce the concentration polarization occurred at high current density. In this paper, three dimensional computation model including anode and cathode domain together was developed to examine effects of flow patterns and operation conditions such as humidity and operating temperature on performance of fuel cell. Results show that voltage at counter flow condition is higher than that at coflow condition in parallel and interdigitated flow pattern. And fuel cell with interdigitated flow pattern which has better mass transport by convection flow through gas diffusion layer has higher performance than with parallel flow pattern but its pressure drop is increased such that the trade off between performance and pressure drop should be considered for selection of flow pattern of fuel cell.

The most promising application of the biofuel cells is implantable devices, so the biofuel cells should have an appropriate shape for the vascular vessel. We demonstrated the biofuel cell roll for using in tubes. MWNTs were aggregated by vacuum filtration on a nitrocellulose membrane filter, which was biocompatible and flexible. The MWNT aggregated nitrocellulose membrane used the electrodes of the biofuel cells because it was conductive as well as nanostuructured. Then, the membrane was rolled into the roll shape. The maximum power density of the biofuel cell roll was $7.9{\mu}W/cm^2$ at 153mV and 50 mM glucose. Also, the power density is expected to increase in its practical application if there is flow in the tube, which makes the transportation of fuel easy. The biofuel cell roll contacts with the wall of the tube, so flow in the tube does not disturb. Also, the biofuel cell roll has multi-layers offering more electroactive area.

The deformation behavior of copper during equal channel angular pressing(ECAP) was calculated using a three-dimensional version of a constitutive model based on the dislocation density evolution. Finite element simulations of the variation of the dislocation density and the dislocation cell size with the number of ECAP passes are reported. The calculated stress, strain and cell size are compared with the experimental data for Cu deformed by ECAP in a modified Route C regime. The results of FEM analysis were found to be in good agreement with the experiments. After a rapid initial decrease down to about 200nm in the first ECAP pass, the average cell size was found to change little with further passes. Similarly, the strength increased steeply after the first pass, but tended to saturate with further pressings. The FEM simulations also showed strain non-uniformities and the dependence of the resulting strength on the location within the workpiece.

본 연구에서는 /K cell(286\times254\times119mm)$을 이용하여 해성점토 지반에서의 electrokinetic 공법에 의한 지반개량효과를 비교 연구하였다. 남해안 해성점토에 대해서 순수 재하시험과 저전압을 이용한 전기삼투시험, 그리고 고전압을 이용한 전기영동시험을 실시한 결과, 저전압 전기삼투에 의한 지반개량 효과가 제일 컸으며, 고전압 전기영동에 의한 지반개량효과는 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 전기삼투시험에서는 전류가동시간과 전류밀도가 클수록, 즉 전력소모량이 많을수록 지반 개량효과가 크게 나타났다.

The Cu-Ni-YSZ cermet anodes for direct use of methane in solid oxide fuel cells have been fabricated by electroplating Cu into the porous Ni-YSZ cermet anode. The uniform distribution of Cu in the Ni-YSZ anode could be obtained via pulse electroplating in the aqueous solution mixture of $CuSO_4{\cdot}5H_{2}O$ and ${H_2}{SO_4}$ for 30 min with 0.05 A of average applied current. The power density ($0.17\;Wcm^{-2}$) of a single cell with a Cu-Ni-YSZ anode was shown to be slightly lower in methane at $700^{\circ}C$, compared with the power density ($0.28\;Wcm^{-2}$) of a single cell with a Ni-YSZ anode. However, the performance of the Ni-YSZ anode-supported single cell was abruptly degraded over 21 h because of carbon deposition, whereas the Cu-Ni-YSZ anode-supported single cell showed the enhanced durability upto 52 h.

Inter-cellular communication via diffusible small molecules is a defining character not only of multicellular forms of life but also of single-celled organisms. A large number of bacterial genes are regulated by the change of chemical milieu mediated by the local population density of its own species or others. The cell density-dependent "autoinducer" molecules regulate the expression of those genes involved in genetic competence, biofilm formation and persistence, virulence, sporulation, bioluminescence, antibiotic production, and many others. Recent innovations in recombinant DNA technology and micro-/nano-fluidics systems render the genetic circuitry responsible for cell-to-cell communication feasible to and malleable via synthetic biological approaches. Here we review the current understanding of the molecular biology of bacterial intercellular communication and the novel experimental protocols and platforms used to investigate this phenomenon. A particular emphasis is given to the genetic regulatory circuits that provide the standard building blocks which constitute the syntax of the biochemical communication network. Thus, this review gives focus to the engineering principles necessary for rewiring bacterial chemo-communication for various applications, ranging from population-level gene expression control to the study of host-pathogen interactions.

In order to induce the rapid alcohol fermentation through the increases of the cell density in a continuous alcohol fermentation of naked barley, the single-cultivation with S. cerevisiae IS-019(SCM, ordinary control), mixed-cultivation with Saccharomyces uvarum IS-026 having a flocculent ability and S. cerevisiae IS-019(MCM), and mash recirculation by single-cultivation of S. cerevisiae IS-019(MRM) modes were investigated. The cell mass in the mixed-cultivation mode was about 10% higher than that of ordinary control but the final alcohol yield was slightlyl decreased. When recycled the mash with the flow rate of 7 l/h from V$_{6}$ to V$_{5}$ fermentors under the ordinary control, the cell density was distributed at 140~170$\times $10$^{6}$ cell/ml depending upon the fermentorsorders, higher about 20% than that of the ordinary control. Under these conditions the alcohol productivity of the maximum and the overall was 12.16 g/l$\cdot $h with an alcohol of 7.6% at the V$_{5}$ fermentor and 1.19 g/l$\cdot $h with an alcohol of 8.94%, respectively. For higher cell mass it was more effective to apply the mash recirculation mode with the single-cultivation of S. cerevisiae IS-019 in a pilot scale multi-stage CSTR.
