Scaffolds of cell substrates are biophysical platforms for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. They ultimately play a leading-edge role in the regeneration of tissues. Recent studies have shown the potential of bioactive scaffolds (i.e., osteo-inductive) through 3D printing. In this study, rice bran-derived biocomposite was fabricated for fused deposition modeling (FDM)-based 3D printing as a potential bone-graft analogue. Rice bran by-product was blended with poly caprolactone (PCL), a synthetic commercial biodegradable polymer. An extruder with extrusion process molding was adopted to manufacture the newly blended "green material." Processing conditions affected the performance of these blends. Bio-filament composite was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Mechanical characterization of bio-filament composite was carried out to determine stress-strain and compressive strength. Biological behaviors of bio-filament composites were also investigated by assessing cell cytotoxicity and water contact angle. EDX results of bio-filament composites indicated the presence of organic compounds. These bio-filament composites were found to have higher tensile strength than conventional PCL filament. They exhibited positive response in cytotoxicity. Biological analysis revealed better compatibility of r-PCL with rice bran. Such rice bran blended bio-filament composite was found to have higher elongation and strength compared to control PCL.

$MgIn_2Se_4 and MgIn_2Se_4 : Ni^{2+}$ single crystals were grown in the rhombohedral structure by the chemical transport reaction (C.T.R.) method using iodine as a transport agent. The optical absorption measured near the fundamental band edge showed that the optical energy band structure of these compounds had a direct band gap. The fundamental absorption band edge of these single crystals shift to a shorter wavelength region by decreasing temperature and the temperature dependence of the optical energy gaps in these compounds satisfy Varshni equation. The impurity optical absorption peaks due to nickel are observed in $MgIn_2Se_4 and MgIn_2Se_4 : Ni^{2+}$ single crystal. These impurity optical absorption peaks can be attributed to the electronic transitions between the split energy levels of $Ni_{2+}$ ions located at $T_d$ symmetry site of $MgIn_2Se_4$ host lattice. In the hotoluminescence spectrum of the single crystal at 10 K, a blue emission with a peak at 687nm and a green emission with a peak at 815nm for the $MgIn_2Se_4$ single crystal were observed.

각종 환경 규제에 대한 대응이 세계 IT 시장에서 큰 이수로 부각되면서 데이터 센터 유지를 위해 소모되는 막대한 양의 에너지와 저장 장치를 효율적으로 관리하기 위한 통합(Consolidation), 가상화(Virtualization), 최적화(Optimization), 관리 (Leverage) 등의 다양한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 노력의 일환으로 다수의 저장 장치를 계층화하여 전력 소비량 및 데이터 이중화 작업의 강도를 달리하는 새로운 개념의 RAID 기법을 제안한다. G-RAID는 저장 장치의 전력 소비량을 계층화하고 데이터 접근 빈도수에 따라 저장 장치를 선택함으로써 데이터 I/O 성능 저하의 발생을 최소화하면서 전력 소비를 최소화 했다. 또한 파일 시스템과 G-RAID의 블록 맵 정보는 효율적인 작업을 위해 연속적으로 위치한 블록들의 그룹을 기본 단위로 처리되며 그룹 별 접근 빈도수를 고려하여 블록 연결 작업으로 인한 성능 감소를 최소화하고자 했다. 실험 결과, 블록 재배치 작업으로 인한 응답 시간의 향상이 나타났지만 전력 소비 율은 최대 38% 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

A life cycle impact assessment was applied in an industrial waste incineration plant to evaluate the direct and indirect environmental impacts based on toxicity and non-toxicity categories. The detailed life cycle inventory of material and energy inputs and emission outputs was compiled based on the realistic data collected from a local industrial waste incineration plant, and the Korean life cycle inventory and ecoinvent database. The functional unit was the treatment of 1 tonne of industrial waste by incineration and the system boundary included the incineration plant and landfilling of ash. The result on the variation of the impact by the unit processes showed that the direct impact was decreased by 79.3, 71.6, and 90.1% for the processes in a semi dry reactor, bag filter, and wet scrubber, respectively. Considering the final impact produced from stack, the toxicity categories comprised 91.7% of the total impact. Among the toxicity impact categories, the impact in the eco-toxicity category was most significant. A separate estimation of the impact due to direct and indirect emissions showed that the direct impact was 97.7% of the total impact. The steam recovered from the waste heat of the incineration plant resulted in a negative environmental burden.

In this study, we intended to extend the life of electropolishing solution through the reduction of electric resistance by improving the electrolysis efficiency. The optimum conditions were obtained by half round bus bar and Taguchi method. As the main control factors in the electropolishing process, current density, polishing time, electrolyte temperature and flow rate were selected. The electrolyte temperature was the most significant to the electrolysis efficiency. The optimum conditions for the life extension of electropolishing solution were as follows: current density, $45A/dm^2$; polishing time, 6 min; electrolyte temperature, $70^{\circ}C$; flow rate, 11 L/min. As a results of ANOVA of SN ratios, it was found that the electrolyte temperature was significant factor at the 90% confidence level.

Recently, various energy efficiency optimization activities are ongoing globally by integrating conventional grids with ICT (Information and Communication Technology). In this sense, various smart grid projects, which power suppliers and consumers exchange useful informations bilaterally in real time, have been being carried out. The electric vehicle diffusion program is one of the projects and it has been spotlighted because it could resolve green gas problem, fuel economy and tightening environmental regulations. In this paper, the economics of V2G system which consists of electric vehicles and the charging infrastructure is evaluated comparing electric vehicles for V2G with common electric vehicles. Additional benefits of V2G are analyzed in the viewpoint of load leveling, frequency regulation and operation reserve. To find this benefit, electricity sales is modeled mathematically considering depth of discharge, maximum capacity reduction, etc. Benefit and cost analysis methods with the modeling are proposed to decide whether the introduction of V2G systems. Additionally, the methods will contribute to derive the future production and the unit cost of electric vehicle and battery and to get the technical and economic analysis.

본 실험은 동일 사료원료 조건에서 농후사료와 조사료를 혼합 급여하는 섬유질배합사료(TMR)와 분리급여 방식이 메탄발생량에 미치는 효과를 조사하기 위하여 홀스타인 거세 숫소 6두(평균체중 $203{\pm}24.8kg$)를 공시하여 changeover design으로 실험을 수행하였다. TMR구는 육성기용 배합사료, 티모시 건초 그리고 비지를 생중량 기준 각각 40, 48, 12% 비율로 매일 혼합 급여하였고, 분리급여구는 배합사료와 비지만을 급여 전 혼합하여 대사틀에 설치된 사료통에 먼저 넣고 그 위에 티모시를 올려주었다. 사료급여량은 공시축이 전량 섭취할 수 있도록 약 0.2 kg의 일당증체 수준으로 제한 급여하였기 때문에 처리구간 차이가 없었고, 메탄발생량(g/d)에서도 유의적인 차이가 없었다(P>0.1). 그러나 메탄 전변율(Ym, 메탄 에너지/GE intake)은 TMR구가 분리급여구 보다 유의적으로 높았다(p=0.05). 두 처리 평균 메탄 배출계수(kg $CH_4$/head/year)는 21.4였고, 평균 메탄 전변율은 0.05이었으며, 공시축의 대사체중(metabolic BW, $kg^{0.75}$)과 메탄발생량(g/d)과는 높은 상관관계($R^2=0.8057$, p<0.001)를 보였다. 반추가축의 대표적인 사료급여방식 차이가 메탄발생량에 미치는 효과에 대한 결론을 얻기 위해서는 보다 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

In power system research fields, one of current key issues is the construction and commercialization of micro grid site which is called green island, carbon zero island, energy independent island, building micro grid, etc. and various affiliated technologies have been being vigorously developed to realize. In addition, various researches about electric vehicles (EVs) are in progress and it is expected to penetrate rapidly with the next a few years. Some new load models should be developed integrating with electric vehicle loads because the EVs' deployment could cause the change of load composition rate on power system planning and operations. EVs are also resources for micro grid as well as distributed generation and demand response so that various supply and demand side resources should be considered for micro grid researches. In this paper, the load composition rate of residential sectors is prospected considering the deployment of EVs and the resource configuration of micro grid is optimized based on net present cost. In the optimization, the load patten of case studies includes EV's charging characteristics and various cases are simulated comparing micro grid environment and normal condition. HOMER is used to compare various cases and economic effects.

미세 $BaTiO_3$ 분말의 합성을 위해 함수 티타니아와 수산화바륨을 원료로 수열합성 실험을 수행하여, 반응시간, 온도, 농도 변화에 따른 전화율, 결정구조 및 생성 분말의 물성을 조사하였다. 전화율에 미치는 영향은 시간 < 온도 < 농도 순이었으며, 2.0 M의 원료를 $180^{\circ}C$에서 2 h 수열합성 시킬 때 최대 전화율을 99.5%를 얻을 수 있었다. 낮은 농도(0.25 M)에서는 고온에서도 미반응 $BaCO_3$와 미반응 $TiO_2$ 생성을 피할 수 없었으며, 이 미반응 물질들은 고온에서 $BaTi_2O_5$를 생성시켜 불순물로 존재하였다. 농도를 높일수록 합성 $BaTiO_3$ 분말의 크기는 작아졌으며, 분말의 Ba/Ti 비도 1에 접근하였다. 2.0M 이상의 농도에서는 $180^{\circ}C$, 2 h 반응에서 Ba/Ti 비는 $1{\pm}0.005$ 이였다.
