Tantalum oxide thin filme has an amorphous structure and a high resistivity. Its stoichiometric structure was $Ta_2O_{5.3}$ and the transmission ratio was 80%. The high resistivity of $Ta_2O_{5.3}$ thin film electrolyte made an EC windows without electrical shottness, but the bleached/colored cur rent was very low because of the low ion conductivith. Upon adding moisture into the system, the $\Delta$T increased upto 25 %. proton concentration increase was the main cases to improve optical property. The influence of adding precious or transition metal film(~100 $\AA$ thickness) in $Ta_2O_5$layer on the color change performance was observed. The metal insertion layers had formed hydroxide and they behaved as a stable proton source. The transmission diffrnece and cycle life were greatly enhanced in the case of Ti inssertion.The $\Delta$T was 50% and the cycle life was 18, 000.

During the past decade, substantial research effort has been directed into the development of rechargeable lithium batteries. Although some improvements in cycle life and efficiency have been achieved, the reversibility of the lithium electrode remains as a significant problem in aprotic solvent based electrolyte. The major problems limiting cycle life are short circuits resulting from growth of lithium dendrites, and macroscopic shape changes during the recharge process. As an anode material of lithium rechargeable battery, amorphous carbon materials have been studied extensively because of their high electrochemical performance. The polyacene materials prepared from phenol refine at relatively low temperature(550∼750$^{\circ}C$) show a highly Li-doped state up C$_2$Li state without liberation of Li cluster. So it has largely layered distance 4${\AA}$. The Li storage mechanism as well as the large hysterisis observed in the voltage-capacity profile of the amorphous carbone materials are still the subjects of controversy. We prepared each polyacene material various temperature and investigated electrochemical property. The mole ratio of [H]/[C] is 0.027∼0.015 range.

There are many elastomeric joint sealant applications in construction such as structural glazing, weatherproofing and insulating glass fabrication etc. Each sealant joints require unique durability functions to perform well through building life cycle. Elastomeric joints in bathroom and kitchen is one of areas which require durable sealing. In this application, anti fungal durability is proprietary function of sealant during building life cycle. Premature failure of anti fungus resistance of sealant is putting big stresses to general contractor as well as the inhabitants due to costly rework and poor sanitation. Accordingly, when chemists design a product, they must take into account various parameters not only formulation components also test conditions in order to have long term fungal durability. This paper reviews several biocide options with various industry standards for fungus resistance performance to suggest making new test method for construction sealant industry.

Long Term Asset Management(LTAM) means a plan developed by using LCM(Life Cycle Management) process for optimum life cycle management of significant plant assets at each plant across the fleet. As a part of development of LTAM Strategies on nuclear turbines, a method so as to determine the future failure rates for low pressure turbine facilities at a nuclear plant was studied and developed by using both plant specific and industry-wide performance data. INPO's EPIX data were analyzed and some failure rate evaluation values considering preventive maintenance practices were calculated by using EPRI's PM Basis software. As the result, failure rate functions applicable to a priori and a posteriori replacement of low pressure turbines at a nuclear plant were developed and utilized in an assessment of economics of LCM alternatives on the nuclear turbine facilities in the respects of 40-year and 60-year operation bases.

High junction temperature directly or indirectly affects the optical performance and reliability of high power LEDs in many ways. This paper is focused on junction temperature characterization of LEDs. High power LEDs (3W) were tested in temperature steps to reach a thermal equilibrium condition between the chamber and the LEDs. The LEDs were generated by pulsed currents with duty ratios (0.091% and 0.061%) in multiple steps from 0mA and 700mA. The diode forward voltages corresponding to the short pulsed currents were monitored to correlate junction temperatures with the forward voltage responses for calibration measurement. In junction temperature measurement, forward voltage responses at different current levels were used to estimate junction temperatures. Finally junction temperatures in multiple steps of currents were estimated in effectively controlled conditions for designing the reliability of LEDs.

The performance of building should be deteriorated with time while the building would maintain and manage the function and performance to get a living condition. For the efficient maintenance of the building, the repair cycle would be provided and applied during the service-life time. The service-life time of the building components would be needed to determine the repair time and the repair scope. The service-life time of the building components would be calculated with the 1st repair time and the recovery rate of the performance, considering the recovery rate after repaired. In this paper, the 1st repair time would be estimated with the normal probability distribution, choice probability and 3rd quadratic function. The recovery rate of the building components assumes various level according to the research target and utility area. The results of this study are as follows ; first, most of the components of the building work would range about 30 years in the service-life time and the components of the mechanical works range from 28 years to 37 years, those of the electrical works would be about 31 years.

Cathode materials $LiMn_{2-y}$$M_{y}$ $O_4$(M=Zn and Mg) were obtained by reacting the mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$, Mn $O_2$ and MgO ar ZnO at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 36h in an air atmosphere. These materials showed an extended cycle life in lithium-anode cells working at room temperatue in a 3.0 to 4.3V potential window. Among these materials, LiM $n_{1.9}$M $g_{0.1}$ $O_4$ showed the best cycle performance in terms of the capacity and cycle life. The discharge capacities of the cathode for the Li/LiM $n_{1.9}$ $M_{0.1}$ $O_4$ cell at the 1st cycle and at the 70th cycle were about 120 and 105mAh/g, respectively. This cell capacity is retained by 88% after 70th cycle. In cyclic voltammetry measurement, all cells revealed tow oxidation peaks and reduction peaks. However, Li/$LiMn_{2-y}$$M_{y}$ $O_4$ cell substituted with Zn and Mg showed new reaction peak during reduction reaction.eaction.ion.ion.

This article analyzes film performances in the Korean movie market utilizing three-stage models that incorporate available information in three different stages of the movie life cycle, i.e., at the time of its release, at the end of the first week, and at the end of its life cycle. Based on the premise that the performance of a movie is affected principally by factors of scale, evaluation, and competition, we attempted to ascertain the effects on these factors on performances, and how they differ in different stages. Also, by analyzing domestic and foreign movies released in Korea separately, we were able to compare the different effects of the three factors on the performances of the two categories of movies. Additionally, our movie performance models incorporated herding behavior among the customers. Our results demonstrate that herding is prominently observed after the first week only for domestic movies. In general, the scale factor has been shown to be most important for movie performances in all stages. For foreign films, it is particularly critical for the first week and total performances. Whereas the evaluation factor influences domestic film performance more strongly at the screen choice stage, it affects the performance of foreign films more strongly in the later stages of the life cycle. As compared to foreign films, domestic film performance appears to be more sensitive to the competition factor. We also discuss the effects of covariates such as genre and symbolicity on movie performance.

Recently, methods on minimizing environmental effect caused from human-made goods have been studied in various research fields. Such issue has been also spotlighted into the civil engineering field; however, application of environmental performance assessment on civil structures is very complicated, since they handles vast ranges of materials and has comparatively long life span with various construction stages. Thus, this study intended to apply environmental performance assessment into an ordinary type of steel box girder bridge, using most popular Life cycle assessment (LCA) procedures, which are called Survey-based method and Indirect method. For better comparison of two methods, greenhouse effect of the example bridge is considered. As result of analysis, total $CO_2$ emission is evaluated as 241.27 ton with Survey-based method while it is evaluated as 221.03 ton with Indirect method. It is also revealed that most $CO_2$ is generated from the process of manufacturing and producing construction materials. Such result indicates that the efficient design which secures certain level of structural safety with minimized input materials. It is considered that the specific LCA on civil structure performed in this study could be utilized to other civil structures for reasonable environmental performance assessment.
