A 30Watt inverter with 300: 1 dimming capability for high luminance, one cell, surface discharge plasma light source for LCD backlight was designed and tested. It was possible to achieve 300:1 dimming control by using the push-pull type inverter with burst-mode dimming control. The surface discharge plasma light cell with luminance of more than 5, 260 cd/$m^2$ was successfully operated.

Remote monitoring partial discharge sensor, equipping with hybrid filter combining optical and electrical noise reduction capabilities and with signal integrating function to calculate total arc energy, was investigated. Hybrid filter showed insensitivity to fluorescent and incandescent lamps under simulated distribution panel condition. Signal integrating function showed selective detection capability corresponding to different arc energy levels, while convention arc sensor had difficulty to discriminate arc energy level due to bursty arc waveform and peak level detection characteristics. The sensor showed possibility for application to remote monitoring partial discharge sensor, since it detected arc energy level corresponding to normal open and close discharge in low voltage 100A MCCB at 2m distance.

In this study, capability of an air slot in a siphon spillway for controlling outflow discharge is investigated through hydraulic experiments. Arc and rectangular shapes of air slot are considered and the open area of air slot can be varied. Complex air-regulated flow occurs inside the the siphon spillway when the air slot is installed on it. The same discharge is measured at the same water level inside the reservoir when the water level rises or falls. Nondimensional discharge through the siphon spillway increases slowly as nondimensional open area of the air slot increases. The hydraulic experiments show that the control of outflow discharge of siphon spillway is possible by controlling the open area of the air slot.

An hydraulic experiment was carried out in an open channel flume in order to improve the technique of designing shape of the sluice used for tidal power generation, which greatly affects the economical efficiency of the construction of a tidal power plant. To predict the influence of change in the major design parameters relating to the sluice shape on the water discharge capability of the sluice, it was necessary to perform a precise experiment that is discriminated to previous feasibility studies or design projects. For this purpose, by installing various flow straighteners and rectifying structures inside the water supply system and the rectifying tank, the flow in the flume was stabilized as tranquil as possible. In addition, the measuring instruments and the location of installing them were carefully determined so as to minimize the errors intervened during the measurement of water discharge and water level. The method of estimating head difference between upstream and downstream of the sluice was also developed by taking account of the head loss due to the friction at the bottom and side walls in the flume.

Synopsis: This study has systemized the results of construction and classification with 656 large dams in Korea which were defined in ICOLD provision. Especially, checking up the drainage capability of large capacity outlets and its of spillway, this paper suggests the planning of outflow discharge with large capacity outlets and spillway in future. The results of this study are following as; 1. The classification by purposes in Korea shows that irrigation dams are 94% in rate(607 dams), jydropower and multipurpose dams are 2% (14 dams), municipal and industrial water supply dams are 4% (26 dams). 2. In design of proposed outflow discharge, spillways of irrigation dams were selected outflow discharge on 100 years return period, those of municipal and industrial water supply dmas 200 years and those of hydropower and multipurpose dams 500 years or 1000 years. 3. Emergency spillway should be considered in the fields of disaster prevention engineering and the rank of return periods for the emergency proposed out flow discharge was suggested. 4. Some of problems are suggested for this subject in future.

In this study, the analysis results were presented for the experimental data of sluice for tidal power generation that were installed in an open channel flume. The experiment was carried out for the six different sluice models of different widths and bottom heights of the sluice throat section. If the side shape of the sluice was the same, the coefficient of discharge generally increased by increasing the width of the throat section. However, when the water discharge was small and the upstream water level was low, the coefficient of discharge increased for a while but decreased later with the increase of the throat section width. In addition, the coefficient of discharge was larger when the bottom height of the throat section was higher, regardless of the width of the throat section. It was concluded that the values of coefficient of discharge that were frequently used in the previous feasibility studies were underestimated so that should be adjusted to higher values.

A pneumatic system was proposed to evaluate displacement accuracy of the pneumatic actuator without external load and to analyze capability of integration of the proposed valve system. The proposed pneumatic system consisted of a combination of pneumatic valves, two proximity sensors, and a programmable logic controller(PLC). The position controller is based on the PLC controller connected with the proximity sensors. Displacement accuracy of the pneumatic cylinder stroke was tested by varying air pressures of the supply and discharge-side and strokes of the pneumatic cylinder. The displacement accuracy of the pneumatic cylinder stroke increased as the supply and discharge side of air pressure increased at the stroke length of 133mm. Also the displacement accuracy increased as the stroke length increased with a fixed supply and discharge side of air pressure of the pneumatic cylinder as 3.5 and $4.5kg/cm^2$, respectively. The most accurate displacement of the pneumatic cylinder(i.e., standard deviation of 0.01 mm) was obtained at the supply and discharge side of air pressure of 4.0 and $5.0kg/cm^2$, respectively, and strokes of 170 and 190 mm among arbitrarily selected supply and discharge side air pressures and strokes.

$Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ is prepared through a solid-state reaction between $Li_2CO_3$ and anatase $TiO_2$ for applications in lithium-ion batteries. The rate capability is measured and the electrode polarization is analyzed through the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT). The rate characteristics and electrode polarization are highly sensitive to the amount of carbon loading. Polarization of the $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ electrode continuously increases as the reaction proceeds in both the charge and discharge processes. This relation indicates that both electron conduction and lithium diffusion are significant factors in the polarization of the electrode. The transition metal (Cu, Ni, Fe) ion added during the synthesis of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ for improving the electrical conductivity also greatly enhances the rate capability.

β-AgVO₃ nanorods have been successfully synthesized using a soft chemistry route followed by heat treatment. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy, and their electrochemical properties were investigated using cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectra, and charge-discharge tests. The results showed that the smooth-surfaced nanorods are very uniform and well dispersed, with diameters of ~100-200 nm and lengths of the order of several macrometers. The nanorods deliver a maximum specific discharge capacity of 275 mAh g^-1 at 30 mA g^-1. They also demonstrated good rate capability with a discharge capacity at the 100^th cycle of 51 mAh g^-1.

Adaptive neural network approach is presented for determining Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) parameters. Electrical Discharge Machining has been widely used with its capability of machining hard metals and tough shapes. In the past few years, EDM has been established in tool-room and large-scale production. However. in spite of it's wide application, an universal selection method of EDM parameters has not been established yet. No attempt has been tried before to suggest a logical method in determining essential machine parameters considering the machining rate and resulting surface roughness integrity. The paper presents a method, which is focusing on determining appropriate machining parameters. Depending on the electrode wear and surface roughness, an adaptive neural network is designed for providing suitable machining guideline.
