전기철도차량의 추진제어장치는 자동차의 엔진에 해당되는 핵심 주요부품이며 이를 제어하는 장치는 GDU(Gate Drive Unit)라는 장치를 이용한다. 또한, 추진제어장치의 고장 빈도를 파악해보면 GDU에 대한 부적합 비율이 가장 높았다. GDU는 외국산 도입으로 인하여 핵심기술의 접근이 불가하였고, 제작사의 GDU 단종으로 전반적인 유지보수 활동에 전반적인 문제점이 있었다. GDU는 최장 23년부터 최근 14년의 장기간 사용으로 수명이 도래하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 호환이 가능한 GDU의 확보와 고장을 분석하여 적정수명을 파악하기 위한 것으로, 기존의 상태검사 위주의 유지보수 방법 개선을 위해 설계를 변경하여 추진제어장치의 GDU를 커패시터 교환 형으로 개발하였다. 전체수명에 비해 비교적 수명이 짧은 구성부품의 유지보수는 필수이며, 대부분의 건설초기의 최초 외산도입 부품은 기술종속 및 장기운영의 결과로 관련 부품의 단종이 발생하면 고장발생 시 수급불가 등으로 기본적인 교환에 대한 유지보수에 문제점이 발생되고 있으나, 25년 이상으로 전체수명이 긴 철도차량의 특성상 앞으로도 상당기간 운영이 필요하여 개조 혹은 대체품 개발로 부품확보 및 일정수준의 품질을 유지할 필요가 강조되며, 이에 대한 연구는 보다 구체적이고 실증적으로 이루어져야 한다. 커패시터 교환 형 GDU는 커패시터 모듈의 분리를 통해 정전용량을 쉽게 측정하여 수명을 판단하고, 단품 시험과 커패시터의 수명을 측정하여 정확한 예방유지보수를 할 수 있어서 운행 중 열차의 부적합을 미리 예방할 수 있으며, 24개월 이상의 영업 운전을 통하여 한건의 부적합 없이 영업운행에 성공하여 기존품의 대체 가능여부를 검증하였다.

In agriculture, the rice is the one of important things. Many farmers and scientists have long tried to increase the yield of rice. So many technologies have been developed these days. One type of technology has given rise to a host of concerns and questions, namely Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). The increasing cultivation of GM crops has raised a wide range of concerns with respect to food safety, environmental effects and socio-economic issues and now commercially planted on about 100 million hectares in some 22 developed and developing countries. The scientific evidence concerning the environmental and health impacts of GMOs is still emerging, but so far there is no conclusive information on the definitive negative impacts of GMOs on health or the environment. Nevertheless, public perceptions about GMOs in food and agriculture are divided with a tendency toward avoiding GM food and products in many developed and developing countries. Also Korea is one of that country and is not allow the GMOs now. So I studied whether these GMOs are actually dangerous for environment and whether there are differences in cultivar characteristics such as germination test with TTC tetrazolium, germination test in frozen soil and gene-flow test with glufosinate and strip-bar test. With these experiments, we evaluated the agricultural safety of GM rice and to identify and assess environmental risks.

PV system is consisted with PV module, inverter and BOS(balance of system). To have robustic operation more than 20 years, the expected and guaranteed durability and reliability of products should be met. Almost components of PV system are qualified through IEC standards at test laboratory. But the qualification certificate of product does not ensure long-term nondefective operation. PV module's expected life time is nowadays more than 20 years and annual maximum power degradation ratio would be less than -1%. But the power degradation ratio is basically based on real data more than several years' record. Developing test method for ensuring annual maximum power degradation ratio is very need because there are many new products every month with new materials. In this paper, we have suggested new test method under continuous artificial light irradiation test condition for analyze expected maximum power drop ratio.

Application of hot roiling oil lubrication technology was broadened to the field of RM stands of Hot Rolling Mill at Pohang works. The primary object was to improve the quality of the strip sttrface and the rolls by oil lubrication in hot rolling process. Prior to the actual field application preliminary test was conducted to evaluate the effect of hot rolling oil lubrication at RM stands. From the test, it has been found that the use of oil lubrication tends to prevent the progression of the heat cracks and thereby increases the quality of the strip surface and the wear life of the rolls. New hot rolling oil lubrication system was applied to the RM stands VSB, R1, R2, R3, R4 and edger rolls. With the introduction of a rolling lubricant, the quality of the strip surface and rolls was improved and overall roll dressing has decreased. Also there has been a improvement of productivity from the long roll life.
