Here, we report on nanocrystalline Si-Al-M (M = Fe, Cu, Ni, Zr) alloys for use as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, which were fabricated via a melt-spinning method. Based on the XRD and TEM analyses, it was found that the Si-Al-M alloys consist of nanocrystalline Si grains surrounded by an amorphous matrix phase. Among the Si-Al-M alloys with different metal composition, Ni-incorporated Si-Al-M alloy electrode retained the high discharge capacity of 2492 mAh/g and exhibited improved cyclability. The superior $Li^+$ storage performance of Si-Al-M alloy with Ni component is mainly responsible for the incorporated Ni, which induces the formation of ductile and conductive inactive matrix with crystalline Al phase, in addition to the grain size reduction of active Si phase.

The assessment of radiation fields in the lithium loop pipes and dump tank during the operation were performed for International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility - DEMO-Oriented NEutron Source (IFMIF-DONES) in order to obtain the radiation dose-rate maps in the component surroundings. Variance reduction techniques such as weight window mesh (produced with the ADVANTG code) were applied to bring the statistical uncertainty down to a reasonable level. The biological dose was given in the study, and potential shielding optimization is suggested and more thoroughly evaluated. The MCNP Monte Carlo was used to simulate a gamma particle transport for radiation shielding purposes for the current Li Systems' design. In addition, the shielding efficiency was identified for the Impurity Control System components and the dump tank. The analysis reported in this paper takes into account the radiation decay source from and activated corrosion products (ACPs), which is created by d-Li interaction. As a consequence, the radiation (resulting from ACPs and Be-7) shielding calculations have been carried out for safety considerations.

Many heuristic attribute reduction algorithms have been proposed to find a single reduct that functions as the entire set of original attributes without loss of classification capability; however, the proposed reducts are not always perfect for these multiclass datasets. In this study, based on a probabilistic rough set model, we propose the class-oriented attribute reduction (COAR) algorithm, which separately finds a reduct for each target class. Thus, there is a strong dependence between a reduct and its target class. Consequently, we propose a type of ensemble constructed on a group of classifiers based on class-oriented reducts with a customized weighted majority voting strategy. We evaluated the performance of our proposed algorithm based on five real multiclass datasets. Experimental results confirm the superiority of the proposed method in terms of four general evaluation metrics.

Eu(Ⅲ) exhibits one electron-transfer reduction at E$_{1/2}$ =-0.617 V vs. Ag/AgCl and the hypersensitive peak at 618 nm corresponding to $^5D_0$ ${\leftrightarro}$ $^7F_2$ transition in 0.10 M LiClO$_4$ aqueous solutions. Upon the addition of carboxylate or sulfonate anions to the Eu(Ⅲ) aqueous solutions, the reduction potential shifts negatively and the reduction current decreases because of the complex formation between Eu(Ⅲ) ions and the anions. However, for the case of carboxylate anion (acetate or propionate) the shift of reduction peak potential and the emission intensity at 618 nm are greater. The results are interpreted in terms of the differences in the formation constants and the hypersensitivity.

Due to the rapid development of electricity, electronics, information communication, and biotechnology in recent years, studies are actively being conducted on nanopowders as it is required not only for high strengthening but also for high-function powder with electric, magnetic, and optical properties. Nonetheless, studies on nickel nanopowders are rare. In this study of the synthesis of nickel nanoparticles from $LiNiO_2$ (LNO), which is a cathode active material, we have synthesized the nanosized nickel powder by the liquid reduction process of $NiSO_4$ obtained through the leaching and purification of LNO. Moreover, we have studied the reduction reaction rate according to the temperature change of liquid phase reduction and the change of particle size as a function of NaOH addition amount using hydrazine monohydrate ($N_2H_4{\cdot}H_2O$) and NaOH.

Principal Fitted Component (PFC) is a semi-parametric sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) method, which is originally proposed in Cook (2007). According to Cook (2007), the PFC has a connection with other usual non-parametric SDR methods. The connection is limited to sliced inverse regression (Li, 1991) and ordinary least squares. Since there is no direct comparison between the two approaches in various forward regressions up to date, a practical guidance between the two approaches is necessary for usual statistical practitioners. To fill this practical necessity, in this paper, we newly derive a connection of the PFC to covariance methods (Yin and Cook, 2002), which is one of the most popular SDR methods. Also, intensive numerical studies have done closely to examine and compare the estimation performances of the semi- and non-parametric SDR methods for various forward regressions. The founding from the numerical studies are confirmed in a real data example.

스피넬 구조로 이루어진 $LiMn_2O_4$에서 Mn의 일부분을 Ni로 치환한 $LiMn_{1.5}Ni_{0.5}O_4$은 4.7 V 전압 영역에서 높은 방전 용량 및 우수한 충 방전 사이클 특성을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 착체중합법을 이용하여 $LiMn_{1.5}Ni_{0.5}O_4$를 합성하였다. Citric acid : metal의 몰비(5 : 1, 10 : 1, 15 : 1, 30 : 1) 및 하소 온도($500{\sim}900^{\circ}C$) 변화에 따라 합성된 $LiMn_{1.5}Ni_{0.5}O_4$ 분말의 특성을 조사하였다. 합성된 분말의 XRD 분석을 통해 저온($500^{\circ}C$) 및 고온($900^{\circ}C$) 영역에서 모두 단일상인 $LiMn_{1.5}Ni_{0.5}O_4$ 결정상을 관찰할 수 있었고, 하소 온도가 증가함에 따라 결정화 및 결정자 크기도 함께 증가하였다. 합성된 $LiMn_{1.5}Ni_{0.5}O_4$ 분말의 형상 및 비표면적 분석 결과, 저온영역에서는 CA 몰비가 증가할수록 입자사이즈는 감소하고 비표면적은 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면에 고온영역에서는 온도 증가에 따른 입자 성장에너지가 CA 몰비 증가에 따른 입자 사이즈 감소 및 비표면적 증가 효과를 감소시키는 것을 관찰하였다.

0.1M LiCl의 ethanol 용액에서 ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dibenzyl N-benzylidene L-aspartate의 전기화학적 환원을 direct current, differential pulse polarography, cyclic voltammetry 그리고 controlled potential coulometry 방법으로 연구하였다. ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dibenzyl N-benzylidene L-aspartate의 환원과정은 1단계(-0.92 volts vs. Ag-AgCl)에서 양성자 첨가와 2전자이동에 의한 완전 비가역의 CEC 혹은 CE 반응기구로 진행되었으며 ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dibenzyl N-benzyl L-aspartate가 생성되었다. 계면활성제가 포함된 용액에서 polarography 환원파는 전체적으로 약간 억제되었으며 Triton X-100의 농도가 진해질수록 비가역성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 생성물 분석과 pH 변화에 따른 전극환원과정에 대한 고찰로 전기화학적 반응기구를 제안하였다.

The electrolytic reduction of spent oxide fuel involves the liberation of oxygen in a molten LiCl electrolyte, which results in a chemically aggressive environment that is too corrosive for typical structural materials. So, it is essential to choose the optimum material for the process equipment handling molten salt. In this study, corrosion behavior of Inconel 713LC, Inconel MA 754, Nimonic 80A and Nimonic 90 in the molten salt $LiCl-Li_2O$ under an oxidizing atmosphere was investigated at $650^{\circ}C$ for 72~216 hrs. Inconel 713LC alloy showed the highest corrosion resistance among the examined alloys. Corrosion products of Inconel 713LC were $Cr_2O_3$, $NiCr_2O_4$ and NiO, and those of Inconel MA 754 were $Cr_2O_3$ and $Li_2Ni_8O_{10}$ while $Cr_2O_3$, $LiFeO_2$, $(Cr,Ti)_2O_3$ and $Li_2Ni_8O_{10}$ were produced from Nimonic 80A. Also, corrosion products of Nimonic 90 were found to be $Cr_2O_3$, $(Cr,Ti)_2O_3$, $LiAlO_2$ and $CoCr_2O_4$. Inconel 713LC showed local corrosion behavior and Inconel MA 754, Nimonic 80A, Nimonic 90 showed uniform corrosion behavior.

오늘날에는 컴퓨터를 이용한 다양한 그래프기법의 개발로 자료로부터 정보를 직접적으로 얻는 것이 용이하다. 특히 최근에 발표된 R-코드(Cook과 Weisberg, 1994)는 다양한 2차원, 3차원 플롯 뿐만 아니라 축의 회전과 여러가지 모형에 대한 적합성을 제시하므로 보다 쉽게 자료에 적합한 모형을 시각적으로 분석할 수 있게 하였다. 그러나 그래프는 3차원 이상의 공간을 표현할 수 없기 때문에 하나의 반응변수와 세개이상의 설명변수 사이의 관계를 직접적으로 표현하는 것이 불가능하다. 이와 관련하여 Li(1991, 1992)에 의하여 제시된 SIR, pHd 방법과 Cook과 Weisberg(1991)에 의하여 제시된 SAVE는 설명변수들의 선형결합을 이용하여 효과적으로 설명변수들의 차원을 줄이는 방법을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 Li에 의하여 제시된 pHd 방법을 반응변수가 2개이상인 다변량 반응변수 모형에 적용하는 방법을 연구하였다. pHd 방법의 적용에는 많은 계산과정이 요구되는데, 이러한 계산과 다양한 플롯은 R-코드를 이용하였다.
