The purpose of substation grounding system is to provide reference potential with power system and protect field workers from electrical shock resulted from unsymetrical power system faults. For this purpose, grounding grid should be designed to maintain max, touch voltage under safety criteria in fault conditions. It is difficult, however, to design a safe grounding grid at very resistive or narrow area. This paper describes an example of substation grounding grid design procedures in such areas with very severe design conditions. By using grounding conductors, which is located close to earth surface, earth surface potential could be controlled effectively, so that maximum touch voltages is to be maintained under safety criteria.

$TiO_2$는 기계적, 화학적 안정성이 높아 가혹한 화학적 환경 또는 고온 운전 조건에서 훌륭한 내구성을 보여주어 산업적으로 일찍이 널리 이용되어 왔다. 예를 들어, 염소발생 (chlorine evolution reaction) 또는 산소발생반응은 (oxygen evolution reaction) 염소 또는 산소 라디칼에 전극이 지속적으로 노출되기에 강한 내부식성을 지닌 전극재가 요구되었고, 그 결과 $TiO_2$를 골조로 한 불용성전극 (dimensionally stable anode)이 개발되어 이용되고 있다. 그러나, $TiO_2$는 절연성이 높은 금속 산화물 재료이기 때문에 넓은 표면적 획득 및 촉매제 사용을 통해 소재의 단점을 극복해야만 한다. 넓은 반응 표면적 획득의 한 방법으로써 전기화학적 양극산화 (electrochemical anodization)를 통한 $TiO_2$ 나노튜브 제조법은 경제적이면서도 구조 제어도 간편한 방법이다. $TiO_2$ 나노튜브는 100nm 전후의 기공 크기를 가짐과 동시에 매우 높은 종횡비를 지니고 있어 넓은 반응 표면적 획득에 특히 유리하다. 그러나, 이 높은 종횡비는 촉매 도입을 어렵게 하는 저해요소가 되기도 한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 다양한 방법들이 연구되었으나 대부분이 번거롭거나 비싼 후단공정을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 $TiO_2$ 나노튜브에 촉매를 도핑하기 위한 간단한 전기화학적 방법으로, 단일공정 양극산화법 (single-step anodization)과 전압충격법 (potential shock), 그리고 저전압충격법 (under potential shock)을 연구하였으며 이에 적용 가능한 촉매제의 종류를 소개한다. 또한, 촉매의 성질에 따른 응용분야와 그 성능평가 결과를 제시한다.

The role of heat shock proteins in shielding organism from environmental stress is illustrated by the large-scale synthesis of these protein by the organism studied to date. However, recent evidence also suggests an important role for heat shock protein in fertilization and early development of mammalian embryos. Effects of elevated in vitro temperature on in vitro produced bovine embryos were analysed in order to determine its impact on the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) by control and frozen-thawed after in vitro fertilization (IVF) or nuclear transfer (NT). The objective of this study was to assess the developmental potential in vitro produced embryos with using of the various containers and examined expression and localization of heat shock protein 70 after it's frozen -thawed. For the vitrification, in vitro produced embryos at 2 cell, 8 cell and blastocysts stage after IVF and NT were exposed the ethylene glycol 5.5 M freezing solution (EG 5.5) for 30 sec, loaded on each containers such EM grid, straw and cryo-loop and then immediately plunged into liquid nitrogen. Thawed embryos were serially diluted in sucrose solution, each for 1 min, and cultured in CRI-aa medium. Survival rates of the vitrification production were assessed by re-expanded, hatched blastocysts. There were no differences in the survival rates of IVF using EM grid, cryo-loop. However, survival rates by straw were relatively lower than other containers. Only, nuclear transferred embryos survived by using cryo-loop. After IVF or NT, in vitro matured bovine embryos 2 cell, 8 cell and blastocysts subjected to control and thawed conditions were analysed by semiquantitive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction methods for hsp 70 mRNA expression. Results revealed the expression of hsp 70 mRNA were higher thawed embryos than control embryos. Immunocytochemistry used to localization the hsp70 protein in embryos. Two, 8-cell embryos derived under control condition was evenly distributed in the cytoplasm but appeared as aggregates in some embryos exposed frozen-thawed. However, under control condition, blastocysts displayed aggregate signal while Hsp70 in frozen-thawed blastocysts appeared to be more uniform in distribution.
