Lithium Ion capacitor (LIC) is a new storage device which combines high power density and high energy density compared to conventional supercapacitors. LIC is capable of storing approximately 5.10 times more energy than conventional EDLCs and also have the benefits of high power and long cycle-life. In this study, LICs are assembled with activated carbon (AC) cathode and pre-doped graphite anode. Cathode material of natural graphite and artificial graphite kinds of MAGE-E3 was selected as the experiment proceeds. Super-P as a conductive agent and PTFE was used as binder, with the graphite: conductive agent: binder of 85: 10: 5 ratio of the negative electrode was prepared. Lithium doping condition of current density of $2mA/cm^2$ to $1mA/cm^2$, and was conducted by varying the doping. Results Analysis of Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectrometer (ICP) was used and a $1mA/cm^2$ current density, $2mA/cm^2$, when more than 1.5% of lithium ions was confirmed that contained. In addition, lithium ion doping to 0.005 V at 10, 20 and $30^{\circ}C$ temperature varying the voltage variation was confirmed, $20^{\circ}C$ cell from the low internal resistance of $4.9{\Omega}$ was confirmed.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the effects of pain level, lower back pain dysfunction level, psychosocial level, hip abductor strength (HAS), number of positive lumbar instability tests, and dynamic balance (DB) by applying lumbar stabilization exercises according to the presence or absence of gluteus medius muscle weakness in chronic lower back pain (CLBP) patients with lumbar instability. METHODS: Thirty-five CLBP patients with lumbar instability were divided into the gluteus medius weakness (n = 18) and gluteus medius non-weakened (n = 17) groups using the gluteus medius manual muscle test. Intervention applied conservative physical therapy and lumbar stabilization exercises to both groups that lasted three times a week for four weeks. To compare the intervention effects, the quadruple visual analog scale (QVAS), the Korean version of the Oswestry disability index (K-ODI), fear-avoidance beliefs questionnaire (FABQ), HAS, lumbar instability tests positive response counter (LIC), and DB were measured. RESULTS: Significant differences were shown for QVAS, K-ODI, FABQ, HAS, LIC, and DB for both groups pre- and post-intervention (p < .05). Compared to the gluteus medius weakness group, the gluteus medius non-weakened group showed a significant difference (p < .05) in the changes in QVAS, K-ODI, FABQ-W, FABQ-total, and HAS. CONCLUSION: In CLBP patients with lumbar instability, having gluteus medius weakness was less effective in improving lumbar stabilization exercise than gluteus medius non-weakness regarding pain level, lower back pain dysfunction level, psychosocial level excluding physical activity, and hip abductor strength. Therefore, additional gluteus medius strengthening exercises are necessary for patients with lumbar instability and gluteus medius muscle weakness.

A soil bacterium was isolated from maize roots cultivated in Korea (KNUC153). The isolate was partially classified on basis of l6S rDNA sequence analysis as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. By the acetylene reduction assay (ARA), the strain KNUC153 contained nitrogen-fixing abilities. The amount of auxin produced by the strain KNUC153 was $77.6\;{\mu}g/ml$. The strain KNUC153 produced 4 times higher amount of l-amino-cyclopropane-l-carboxy­lic acid deaminase than that of the other known strain Azospirillum sp. KNUC82. Inoculation treatment with the strain KNUC153 for maize seeds showed positive effect on early growth of the plants.

In this paper we present an overview of existing state of the art visualization techniques fur the interactive analysis of results from numerical simulations and measurements. We describe the basic concepts and key ideas behind these different visualization methods in this paper. The potential of these techniques for an efficient integration into a virtual reality environment will be investigated. Furthermore we present our first demonstrator fur visualizing multiparametric data and give an outlook on our plans for further exploiting and developing these techniques in an upcoming project.

It is believed that fly ash could be suitable for preparing the sialon by carbothermal reduction method because the total amount of SiO2 and Al2O3 is above 80% and the unburned residual carbon is above 5% within the fly ash. The effects of reaction temperature (1350, 1400, 145$0^{\circ}C$) reaction time (1, 5, 10 hours) and the amount of carbon additions (C/SiO2=2, 3, 4 mole) on the $\beta$-sialon synthesis were obserbed, It was conformed that $\beta$-sialon (Z=2.15~2.18) was formed as major phase under all of the synthesis conditions and small amount of Si2ON2 SiC, AlN and Si3N4 was formed depending on the synthesis conditions. FeSix intermetal-lic compound was formed above 140$0^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature due to the large amount of iron oxides within the raw fly ash.

미니트램(Mini-Tram)은 승하차 시간 동안 정거장에서의 무선급전 방식에 의한 급속충전(약, 2분 30초 이내)을 통해 에너지를 공급받으며, 운행 시 차상에 설치된 에너지저장 매체(LIC: Lithium-Ion Capacitor)로부터 전기에너지를 공급받아서 운행된다. 차량에 요구되는 에너지 소모량을 분석하고 이에 맞춰서 저장 매체의 직-병렬 구성 및 전력 변환 장치(Regulator 및 DC-DC 컨버터 등)를 설계하는 것은 전기 구동 차량인 미니트램의 설계에서 매우 중요한 부분이다. 본 논문에서는 미니트램 시스템을 개발하는 과정에서 수행된 에너지공급시스템의 사양 선정을 위한 에너지 소모량 예측과 더불어 이와 관련된 주행저항 및 주행성능 분석에 대해서 다룬다.

미니트램(Mini-Tram)의 에너지 공급시스템은 유도급전(IPT: Inductive Power Transfer) 기반의 무선급속충전(Wireless High Speed Charging) 및 슈퍼커패시터(Supercapacitor) 기술을 융합하여 구성되었다. 기존의 전기이중층 커패시터(EDLC) 및 하이브리드 커패시터(LIC)는 급속충전을 위한 출력성능은 충족하지만, 낮은 에너지밀도 때문에 미니트램의 활용성을 제한하고 있다. 이에 수송시스템 분야에서의 커패시터의 경쟁력을 향상하기 위해서는 최소한의 공간 및 무게 조건을 충족함과 동시에 에너지 밀도를 극대화할 수 있는 하이브리드 커패시터의 개발이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 개발 중인 미니트램의 에너지 요구량을 산정하여 매체의 개발목표 사양을 도출하고 이를 실현하기 위한 방안에 대해서 논하고자 한다.

Aluminum anodizing is a technique that can be formed pores well aligned various diameters. We were prepared CNFs using the polymer as carbon source using the AAO as a template. CNFs can be heat treated at $1400^{\circ}C$ and became soft carbon. It showed electrochemical behavior by Crystallization. In this experiment, I was observing the behavior as a anode material for LIC of CNFs having different diameters.

Graphite is used as a negative electrode active material of Lithium ion capacitor (LIC). At the cathod, electrostatic reaction of EDLC is a very high reaction rate compared to a oxidaion reduction reaction. When the graphite was expanded that the length between the sheet, the intercalation of lithium ions is smoothed. And thus, the power density increases. By measuring the XRD, it was confirmed that the increase in interlayer spacing of graphite. And by measuring an electrochemical reactionin Lithium Ion Battery (LIB), it was confirmed the tendency of power density is improved.
