  • This study examined the influence of manufacturing processes and extraction conditions on the chemical compositions of green tea. Green tea samples grown in various areas (Korea, China, and Japan) and processed by 4 different methods (steaming, pan-firing, steaming and pan-firing, and heavy roasting after steaming and pan-firing) were collected for study. The chemical compositions of the green tea extracts and infusions were different according to their processing methods and extraction conditions, including catechins, caffeine, and free amino acids contents. In all samples analyzed, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), and theanine were determined as the major catechins and free amino acid, respectively. Studies of samples grown in the same area (Jeju; Korea) showed that there were significant differences in the concentrations of catechins and caffeine in extract and infusion according to the processing methods. These results indicate that processing methods influenced the chemical compositions of the green tea extracts and infusions.

  • In human beings, it is known that there is a correlation between the occurrence of acne and the ability to suppress sebum. Sebosuppression may be related to the inhibition of sebocyte proliferation, differentiation, and lipogenesis in sebaceous glands. To investigate the skin sebosuppressive activity of green tea extract, the in vivo effects of its flavonoid compounds on the androgen-dependent stimulation of pigmented macules in hamsters and performed in vitro experiments with human primary sebocytes were examined. Our results imply a dual activity of skin sebosuppression by green tea flavonoids; some catechins including epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and gallocatechin-3-gallate (GCG) may reduce the differentiation of sebocytes by inhibiting PPAR-${\gamma}1$ mRNA expression, whereas some flavonol glycosides including kaempferol may inhibit lipogenesis in sebaceous glands by decreasing levels of the mature form of sterol-sensitive response elements binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c). Therefore, green tea is a potentially effective material for use in the development of health foods or cosmetics for skin sebosuppression.

  • In this study, a metal-supported SOFC was fabricated using a relatively cheap and simple process. The adhesion process between ceramic cell and metal support was performed in high temperature over $1400^{\circ}C$ and the deformation of large metal-supported cell happened in this process. Using bi-layered metal support fabricated by diffusion bonding, the deformation of the metal-supported cell can be minimized and the sealing efficiency of anode and cathode was improved. The flatness of the cell was improved by over 20% and the maximum power density of over 0.5 $Wcm^{-2}$ was obtained at the operation condition of $800^{\circ}C$.

  • The Seoul Housing Corporation pronounced an alternative design competition and a bidding for Eunpyeong New Town in December of 2004. At first many construction companies were interested in the first New Town Project. But at last a few companies had proposed the alternative design and construction cost. This project needed a conjunction of design ideas and technology know-hows. And the client wanted the brand power of construction company. Ultimately the Corporation hoped that the first New Town Project will end up with high quality successfully. This competition had started with the original construction drawings. Then it needed some alternative ideas and the lowest cost. There were two drawings of non changeable part and changeable part. Non changeable parts are structure like housing unit plan, underground parking lots. Changeable parts are outdoor layout, interior design and building facade. So we tried all ideas of landscape technology and design principles within limited guidelines. The author applied new technology like tilted rooftop greening and sustained container greening on high-rise apartment house. This green technology will be the first trial in Seoul and in the world as well. Daewoo Corporation have accumulated greening technology through the researches by national funding since 2002. Through this New Town Project the green technology will go forward step by step.

  • 우리나라 전력기술 수준의 평가는 전력기술 중장기 발전계획에 대한 기초자료로서 전력인프라의 투자, 연구개발정책의 수립, 예산배분의 기된 데이터로서 활용되고 있지만, 대부분의 기술수준 평가방법이 전문가 설문조사에 의한 정성적 평가에 그치고 있어 산업 현장의 데이터가 반영되는 데는 미흡한 점이 있었다. 된 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 전력기술전반의 수준 평가를 전력산업 각 부분의 계량지표를 관간으로 산출하는 방법에 의한 계량적인 기술평가를 시도하였다. 이 정량적 평가결과를 전문가의 정성적 평가결과 및 과학기술부 조사결과와 대비함으로써 그 차이를 논하고 향후 해석적인 기술평가를 위한 발전방향을 제시하였다.

  • Recently, increases of leisure activities and 5-day workweek system enforce government employ rural tourism policy and projects. Operating projects are Green Rural Experience Village, Rural Tradition Theme Village, etc. In this study under investigation of Green Rural Experience Village site, Green-Tourism performance indicators were developed. Green-Tourism performance indicators of rural village were developed by BSC(balanced scorecard) and AHP(Analytic hierarchy process). Four perspective of BSC are divided into financial perspective, customer, internal-business process, and teaming and growth perspectives. To develop green-tourism performance indicators of rural village, low perspectives of BSC are converted into investment effect, visitor, internal process, and village inhabitants perspectives. By these perspectives, green-tourism performance indicators of rural village were developed. Weighting values on importance were calculated by AHP. Performance indicators developed in this study applied in 12 villages. With the result, generally well-known villages gained high score, and in accord with survey content.

  • The share of agrophotovoltaics in the "renewable energy 3020", which is the Korean government policy for revitalizing new and renewable energy, is increasing gradually. In this study, the distribution of solar radiation received by crops growing on virtual farmland under a range of conditions, such as module height, module angle, shading ratio, and module type, was quantified and analyzed using an Ecotect program, which allows insolation analysis during the period from spring to fall. As the module angle increases, transmissive modules increase the amount of solar radiation delivered to the lower farmland. In addition, the difference between 3x12 Cell Type and 4x9 Cells Type, which are types of photovoltaic modules used in practice, was found to be small. The analysis results can be used as a design standard for the future establishment of agrophotovoltaic systems.

  • 제주 스마트그리드 실증사업은 기기 설치, 시험운전 단계에서 실증운전 단계로 넘어가는 과정 중에 있다. 제주 가상전력시장기반 하에서 수요측 자원의 본격적인 Full-Scale 전력거래가 시작될 예정이며, 거래 수익 최대화를 위해서는 에너지저장장치의 적절한 운영이 필수적으로 요구된다. 당사에서는 에너지저장장치의 시간대별 운영 패턴 도출을 통해 가상전력시장에 참여할 수 있는 에너지저장장치 운영 프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서는 가상전력시장의 개요, 에너지저장장치 운영 프로그램의 개념과 실행 스케쥴, 그리고 입출력 데이터와 Flow Chart 등에 대하여 기술하였다. 향후 실증단계 진행 중에 신뢰할 만한 Raw Data와 거래 reference를 확보, 분석하고 적용하는 과정을 거치면서 운영 알고리즘을 조금 더 개선해야 할 필요가 있다.

  • We report state-of-the-art phosphorescent organic light emitting diode lifetime and efficiency performances for a range of emission colors. Lifetimes in excess of 100,000hrs have been demonstrated at display luminance levels for saturated red emission. External quantum efficiencies close to the theoretical maximum (e.g. 23% without enhanced optical output coupling) are also demonstrated for devices with lifetimes in excess of 15,000hrs at a display level luminance for both orange red and green.
