Objectives : This study is to evaluate the awareness, attitude, practice and the countermeasures against passive smoking in Korean adults. Methods : By self-administered questionnaires, we assessed the knowledge, attitude, behavior for passive smoking and the countermeasure for reduction of it's harmful effects in 289 men and 238 women. Results : The subjects that have heard about passive smoking were 96.8% in total and well known were 26.4% of current smoker, 56.6% of ex-smoker, and 14.8% of non-smoker(p=0.001). The irritative symptom from passive smoking was the most frequent in non-smokers and the most common place where exposed to passive smoking was public place. For attitude against passive smoking in 'no smoking allowed area', ex-smokers were the most active to recommend to stop smoking. And for opinion about establishment of 'no smoking allowed area', the restriction by law was the best acceptable method in smokers, exsmokers, and nonsmokers. In marking of 'no smoking allowed area', 69.9% of smokers answered no smoking, but in non-marking area only 6.3% stop smoking. When smokers were recommended to stop smoking, the more subjects stop smoking with good feeling in marking area, but the less in non-marking area. The factor associated the high awareness of passive smoking were aged(OR=1.07, 1.03-1.12), men(OR=4.34, 2.32-8.46). The persons who have known well about passive smoking had good attitude and behavior to prevent of harmful effect of passive smoking. Conclusions : This study suggested that education program would be necessary to reduce the passive smoking.

According to the wide - spread use of rectifier in electronic equipments, such problems as electronic components failures or equipment disorders have been occurred due to current harmonics. To overcome these problems, power factor correction circuits employing boost converter have been used. The high switching stress of boost converter can be reduced by snubber circuit. Recently, research activities in snubber circuits have been directed to energy recovery snubber for improving the efficiency of power converter. In this study, a new passive snubber circuit which can recover trapped snubber energy without added control is proposed for boost converter. The control of boost converter with proposed snubber is the same as the conventional one. In addition, the energy recovery circuit can be implemented with a few passive components. The circuit operation is confirmed through simulation.

A passive energy recovery snubber for high-power-factor boost rectifier, in which the main switch is described in terms of the equivalent circuits that are operational during turn-on and turn-off sequences. These equivalent circuits are analyzed so that the overshoot voltage across the main switch, the snubber current, and the turn-off transition time can be predicted analytically. The main switch combined with proposed snubber can be turned on with zero current and turned off at limited voltage stress. The high-power-factor boost rectifier with proposed snubber is implemented, and the experimental results are presented to confirm the validity of proposed snubber.

A new low cost hybrid active filter for thyristor-controlled rectifier load is presented to overcome the high cost problem of the active or the other hybrid active filters. The proposed hybrid active filter which consists of tuned (5th and 7th harmonics) LC passive filters, power factor improvement(PFI) capacitor bank, and active filter compensates power factor as well as harmonic currents. Since most of harmonic currents are filtered by the passive filter and most of reactive power is compensated by the PFI capacitor bank, the power rating of active filter can be minimized, resulting in cost minimization of the proposed hybrid active filter. A 300kVA hybrid active filter system is implemented and tested using 1MVA thyristor rectifier load to verify the operation and performance.

In this paper, We studied LED(Light Emitted Diode) sensor lights system using PIR(Pyroelectric Infrared Ray) sensor, CdS and MCU(Micro Controller Unit). And applied the valley fill circuit to improve the power factor. We designed the amplifier for each sensor and the LED driver for constant current which is the buck converter. Also, we proposed the algorithm of LED control by each sensors using MCU. Experimental results showed that power factor is 92% with valley fill circuit.

횡방향의 토압에 저항하는 앵커블록, 흙막이 가설벽체, 레이커 지지블록 등에서 수동토압 산정은 중요한 요소이다. 실무에서는 사용의 편의성으로 인하여 파괴면을 직선으로 가정한 Coulomb과 Rankine의 이론을 사용하여 토압을 산정하는 것이 일반적이다. 하지만 실제 발생하는 수동파괴면은 벽면과 지반의 마찰로 인하여 벽체부근에서는 곡면이고 지표부근에서는 평면이 되는 복합파괴면을 형성한다. 흙막이 구조물의 안정검토에서 저항력으로 산정되는 수동토압이 발생되는 변위는 주동토압이 발생되는 주동변위 보다 커 대부분 구조물의 안정성을 초과하는 변위가 발생하여야 수동토압의 저항력이 발휘되므로 수동토압을 설계에 적용하기 위해서는 허용변위 이내의 임의변위에서 발휘되는 수동측토압의 산정이 매우 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 복합파괴면을 반영한 한계변위 내의 임의 변위에서 발휘되는 수동측토압을 산정할 수 있는 반경험식을 활용하여 벽체의 세 가지 거동조건에 따라 임의 변위에서 발휘되는 수동토압을 분석하였다.

본 연구는 수동 루프 축소 시험 장치를 이용하여 수동 루프 유형별 자기장 저감 효과를 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 수직 2회선 선로 및 수평 선로를 대상으로 실험을 통하여 향후 실증 시험 선로에 적용할 수동 루프의 자기장 저감 효과를 검토하였다. 그 결과 수동 루프 채용으로 선로 리액턴스 보상이 없어도 50 % 이상의 송전 선로의 자기장 저감 효과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인함으로써 실증 선로 수동 루프 적용 방안을 확보하였다. 대부분 우리나라 송전 선로에 채용되는 수직 2회선 선로에서는 수평 루프보다는 수직 루프가 자기장 저감율에 보다 효과적이었으며 차폐 영역에서도 근거리뿐만 아니라 원거리까지도 효과가 좋음을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 수동 루프를 3 턴으로 설치하는 경우가 1 턴에 비해 2배정도 자기장 저감 효과가 있음을 확인하였다.

전력용 커패시터는 유도성 부하의 낮은 역률을 보상하기 위해 설치하는 경우가 많지만, 전력변환장치에서 발생하는 고조파를 줄이기 위해 수동형 필터로서 리액터와 함께 사용되는 경우도 있다. 수동형 필터는 커패시터와 리액터를 직렬로 연결하여 사용한다. 필터는 비선형 부하에서 발생하는 고조파를 흡수하는 역할을 하기 때문에 전압 및 전류 스트레스를 받아 소손 또는 열화되어 정상적인 수명을 보장받지 못하는 경우가 많다. 본 논문에서는 PWM 인버터의 전원측에 설치된 수동형 필터가 고조파를 저감할 때 받는 영향을 해석하였다.

In this paper, passive telemetry capacitive humidity sensor system using a RLSE(Recursive Least Square Estimation) technique Is proposed. To overcome the problem like power limits and complications that general passive telemetry sensor system including IC chip has, the principle of inductive coupling is applied to model the sensor system. Specially, by applying the forgetting factor, we show that the accuracy of its estimation can be improved even in the case of time varying parameter and also the convergence time can be reduced.

This study investigates how Korean speakers develop their interlanguage of English passive constructions with a reference to the learners' grammar proficiency levels. Sixty two college students of different levels of English participated in this study. They were asked to complete a sentence-completion task. Their production was classified into accurate passives, malformed passives, pseudo-passives, unaccusatives, and actives according to the use of transitive, ergative and unergative verbs. They then were further analyzed depending on the subjects' levels of grammar by three main factors: L1 transfer, the English voice system, and universal cognitive factors. The results showed that the subjects of the lower group produced more pseudo-passives, malformed passives, and overpassivization than those of the higher group, and even subjects of higher group still made passives for ergative verbs. It was also shown that L1 and universal factors had more influence on the lower group than on the higher group. Based on the analyses of the subjects' responses, the development of the English passive system by Korean learners is shown and some implications are suggested for effective teaching of English.
