Based on mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA), a novel technique to fabricate carbon nanowire (CNW) arrays is presented for a possible use of porous carbon electrode in electrochemical energy storage applications. PDA can give more porosity and nitrogen-doping effect to carbon electrodes, since it has high graphitic carbon yield characteristic and rich amine functionalities. Using such outstanding properties, the applicability of PDA for electrochemical energy storage devices was investigated. To achieve this, the decoration of the CNW arrays on carbon fiber surface was performed to increase the surface area for storage of electrical charge and the chemical active sites. Here, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowire (NW) arrays were hydrothermally grown on the carbon fiber surface and then, PDA was coated on ZnO NWs. Finally, high temperature annealing was performed to carbonize PDA coating layers. For higher energy density, manganese oxide ($MnO_x$) nanoparticles (NPs), were deposited on the carbonized PDA NW arrays. The enlarged surface area induced by carbon nanowire arrays led to a 4.7-fold enhancement in areal capacitance compared to that of bare carbon fibers. The capacitance of nanowire-decorated electrodes reached up to $105.7mF/cm^2$, which is 59 times higher than that of pristine carbon fibers.

In this paper, we have designated a 42-inch RGB LED BLU, 80 % above illuminance. A desirable brightness performance was attained, by doing anti-parallel configuration, a fitting of LED's strip distance and a height of the top of LED to the back of the LCD. We get the 85.81 % of the brightness uniformity which has 12.8 mm away from LED's top and LCD's back and 51.41 mm of the same spacing between LED's strip in simulation and 82.24 % in experiment.

본 연구에서는 460 nm 파장의 청색 가시광선을 압출 떡의 표면에 조사하기 위하여 장치의 최적 디자인을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하고 청색광이 압출 떡의 표면에서 식품 위해균인 B. cereus group에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. LED 장치에서 광원모듈의 세 가지 배열(centered, cross, evenly spaced) 및 광원과 샘플 표면 사이의 거리(22, 32, 42 mm)에 따른 조사 면적에서 빛의 세기 패턴을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 계산하고, Petri factor를 통하여 균일도를 확인하였다. LED 배열의 균일도는 evenly spaced 배열에서 가장 균일한 패턴을 보였으며, 광원과의 거리가 32 및 42 mm일 경우 Petri factor가 0.9 이상으로 높은 균일도를 나타내었다. 떡볶이 떡에 LED 청색광을 조사한 경우 24 h 후 균 수가 초기 균 수에 비하여 감소하였으며, LED를 조사하지 않은 대조군에서는 초기 균 수가 증가하여 1.21 log CFU/g의 차이를 보였다. LED 조사 시 광원과 샘플의 거리가 증가할수록 Petri factor는 증가하나 감균 효과가 낮아지는 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서 Petri factor가 0.9 이상임을 만족하는 evenly spaced 배열의 32 mm 거리가 떡의 유통기한 연장을 위한 LED 장치의 디자인에 적합함을 확인하였다.

In this work, we have simulated a 42-inch LED BLU which was based on 300 RGB LEDs. We have done an adjustment of LEDs' strip distance and a height of the top of the LED to the back of the LCD to get white color uniformity. So, we have changed simultaneously the distance between the top of the LEDs and the back of the LCD. Moreover, we set a fixed position for the horizontal of LED's pitch. And then, we have experimented and compared to our simulation data.

mSilica developed a scalable integrated circuit solution for driving multiple arrays of LEDs to backlight TFT-LCD panels. The drivers incorporate adaptive power control of the DC-DC power supply powering the LEDs to improve the efficiency while synchronizing PWM dimming with video timing signals VSYNC and HSYNC to reduce motion blur.

This paper presents an LED BLU driving circuit with a local-dimming structure. The efficiency of the proposed LED driver has been improved by parallel driving 8 serial-connected LED arrays. It employed the soft-switching boost converter topology to reduce the switching power loss of the hard switching boost converter. Soft- and hard-switching converters have the same structure except that the free-wheeling diode in the hard-switching converter is replaced with the n-channel MOSFET in the soft-switching one. The proposed boost converter was compared with the hard switching converter. The soft-switching converter reveals superior ripple and efficiency. A smaller inductance can be used for the soft-switching converter contrasting to the hard-switching one. We also studied on an over-voltage protection circuit of the output of the driver at the no load condition. The protection circuit was applied to the proposed driver, and its operation was confirmed by experiment. Using a local-dimming technique, power consumption of LCD BLUs can be reduced as low as possible according to the brightness of its image.

Photovoltaic (PV) systems bosed on solar energy offer an environmentally friendly source of electricity. A key feature of such PV sysem is the efficiency of conversion at which the power converter stage can extract the energy from the PV arrays and deliver to the load. The Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of the PV output for all sunshine conditions allows reduction of the cost installation and maximizes the power output from the PV panel. The proposed algorithm is to control the width of the pulse for battery charging based on the open voltage of the PV panel. As a lab results, the proposed system was implemented functions to adapt to the changes of the PV open voltage, and improved the charging efficiency.

In the past decade, there have been many advances in whole-genome sequencing in domestic animals, as well as the development of "next-generation" sequencing technologies and high-throughput genotyping platforms. Consequently, these advances have led to the creation of the high-density SNP array as a state-of-the-art tool for genetics and genomics analyses of domestic animals. The emergence and utilization of SNP arrays will have significant impacts not only on the scale, speed, and expense of SNP genotyping, but also on theoretical and applied studies of quantitative genetics, population genetics and molecular evolution. The most promising applications in agriculture could be genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic selection for the improvement of economically important traits. However, some challenges still face these applications, such as incorporating linkage disequilibrium (LD) information from HapMap projects, data storage, and especially appropriate statistical analyses on the high-dimensional, structured genomics data. More efforts are still needed to make better use of the high-density SNP arrays in both academic studies and industrial applications.

The prediction of future demand is a vital task in managing business operations. To this end, traditional approaches often focused on statistical techniques such as exponential smoothing and moving average. The need for better accuracy has led to nonlinear techniques such as neural networks and case based reasoning. In addition, experimental design techniques such as orthogonal arrays may be used to assist in the formulation of an effective methodology. This paper investigates a multistrategy approach involving neural nets, case based reasoning, and orthogonal arrays. Neural nets and case based reasoning are employed both separately and in combination, while orthoarrays are used to determine the best architecture for each approach. The comparative evaluation is performed in the context of an application relating to the prediction of Treasury notes.
