In this paper, a novel proposal for a utility-interactive three-phase soft commutation sinewave PWM power conditioner with an auxiliary active resonant DC-link snubber is developed for fuel cell and solar power generation systems. The prototype of this power conditioner consists of a PWM boost chopper cascaded three-phase power conditioner, a single two-switch auxiliary resonant DC-link snubber with two electrolytic capacitors incorporated into one leg of a three-phase V-connection inverter and a three-phase AC power source. The proposed cost-effective utility-interactive power conditioner implements a unique design and control system with a high-frequency soft switching sinewave PWM scheme for all system switches. The operating performance of the 10 kW experimental setup including waveform quality, EMI/RFI noises and actual efficiency characteristics of the proposed power conditioner are demonstrated on the basis of the measured data.

현재 전 세계적으로 물 부족 현상이 대두되는 가운데 그 양상은 더욱 심해지고 있다. 이러한 물 부족 현상의 악화됨에 따라 수자원 관리의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 효율적인 수자원의 관리를 위해서는 근본적으로 물 순환 과정인 수문현상의 이해가 필요하다. 수문현상은 증발산, 강우, 침투, 유출 등의 일련의 과정을 말하는 것으로 이를 해석하기 위해서는 많은 수문 인자들의 정확한 관측이 필요하다. 특히 지표와 대기간의 에너지 및 물의 교환에 대한 중요한 요소인 토양수분은 수문현상의 해석을 위해 필수적인 인자이다. 따라서 수문현상의 정확한 해석을 위해서는 토양수분의 관측이 필요하며, 이에 대한 많은 관측이 이루어져 왔다. 최근에는 원격탐사의 기술의 발달로 토양수분의 관측에 대해 시공간적인 장점을 가지는 인공위성을 이용하고 있다. 토양수분관측에 있어서 많은 위성들이 이용되고 있으나 대다수의 경우 발사시점이 오래되었으며, 현재 2009년 ESA (European Space Agency) 의 지구관측 미션의 일환으로 발사된 SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) 가 이용기간이 남아있다. 단, SMOS는 한국을 포함한 동아시아 및 유럽지역에 대해 RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) 의 전파방해로 우리나라의 경우 토양수분 Product의 직접적인 이용이 어려운 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 SMOS의 Product인 밝기온도를 이용하여 복원알고리즘을 통해 토양수분을 복원하였다. 또한 복원된 알고리즘의 정확성을 평가하기 위해 한반도의 지점관측된 토양수분 데이터를 이용하여 본 알고리즘을 검증하였다.

인공위성을 이용한 토양수분의 측정은, 범지구적인 물순환 분석에 있어서, 수문학적인 인자들의 시공간적인 변화를 예측, 분석하는데 있어 가장 효율적인 방법으로 제안되어왔다. 현재 국/내 외 적으로 사용하는 토양수분 위성은 Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS), Advanced SCATerometer (ASCAT)이 많이 사용되고 있으며, 더불어 일본에서 최근에 발사 된 Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiomter 2 (AMSR2) 센서를 통한 토양수분도 데이터도 적극 활용 되고 있다. 각 위성은 토양수분을 산출 하는 알고리즘, 파장대 그리고 위성 통과 시간 등이 각기 다르므로, 이러한 위성의 데이터를 사용하기 위해서는 지점 데이터와의 검증이 필수적으로 필요하게 된다. 이에따라 본 연구에서는 위성 데이터와 Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS)와의 비교를 통해 각 위성데이터의 동아시아 지역에서의 효용성을 평가하였다. 동아시아의 건조한 지역에서는 SMOS가 가장 좋은 토양수분 데이터 결과를 보여주었으며, 다른 많은 지역에서는 ASCAT이 우세한 결과를 보여주었다. 하지만 한반도 지역의 특정 지역에서는 AMSR2의 토양수분 값이 ASCAT을 뛰어넘는 좋은 결과를 보여주는 결과가 도출되었다. 추가적으로, SMOS의 경우 Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)의 영향으로 한반도지역 토양수분을 측정하는 것에는 많은 무리가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The dietary effects of soy fiber beni-koji(SBCA) containing chitosan-ascorbate on the body weight and serum lipids in obese rats induced by a high fat diet were investigated. The experimental plots(6 rats per each group) were divided into a normal group(NC), a high fat diet group(HF), a 1% SBCA diet group(SBCA1) and a 2% SBCA diet group(SBCA2), and fed for 6 weeks. Compared with the HF group, the mean body weight and the $R\'{o}hrer$ index of the SBCA1 and SBCA2 groups decreased by $3.4{\sim}7.4%$ and $8.1{\sim}13.9%$, respectively. In particular, the body lipids in the SBCA2 group decreased by 42.3%. The serum triglyceride content decreased by approximately $25.54{\sim}27.34%$ in the experimental diet groups. There was no significant difference in the serum total lipids between the HF and SBCA1 groups. On the other hand, the total lipids in SBCA2 group decreased by 19.12% compared with the HF group. In the SBCA2 group, the total serum cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol content decreased by 6.57% and 41.20% compared with the HF group, respectively, while the HDL-cholesterol increased by 10.0%. The risk factor index(RFI) in the SBCA2 group was decreased remarkably by 58.57%.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of applying BIM to the construction phase on preventing rework. Previous studies have presented the contribution of BIM in various ways, but a more practical and reliable analysis methodology are required. In this study, a BIM effect analysis methodology was proposed after collecting requirements on BIM effect analysis from field professionals. In the case study, the rework prevention effect was analyzed based on the proposed methodology. As a result, it was found that BIM application produced the rework prevention effect of approximately KRW 370,519,593. In addition, a consultation with field professionals on the suitability of the proposed methodology and effect analysis results were revealed that the results were sufficiently reliable. The results of this study can be used as efficient basic materials for research on BIM performance measurement in the future.

Herein, electromagnetic shielding structures to reduce the external noise coupling to printed spiral coils (PSCs) and a design method for improving the bandwidth of shielded PSCs have been proposed. It has been demonstrated that the bandwidth of shielded PSCs is limited due to the parasitic capacitance between the coils and the shielding structures and is confirmed by the transfer function simulation of the shielded PSCs with a transmission line as the radio-frequency interference noise source. A design method for the bandwidth improvement of the shielded PSCs has been proposed based on the equivalent circuit model analysis and the case studies depending on PSC designs with a three-dimensional field simulation. With the design method, an optimized shielded PSC design has been presented and successfully confirmed by experimental verification in that the optimized design results in a significant bandwidth improvement.

Multi-component $ZnO-In_2O_3-SnO_2$ thin films have been prepared by RF magnetron co-sputtering using targets composed of $In_3Sn_4O_{12}$(99.99%) [1] and ZnO(99.99%) at room temperature. $In_3Sn_4O_{12}$ contains less In than commercial ITO, so that it lowers cost. Working pressure was held at 3 mtorr flowing Ar gas 20 sccm and sputtering time was 30 min. RF power ratio [RF1 / (RFI + RF2)] of two guns in sputtering system was varied from 0 to 1. Each RF power was varied $0{\sim}100W$ respectively. The thickness of the films was $350{\sim}650nm$. The composit ion concentrations of the each film were measured with EPMA, AES and XPS. The low resistivity of $1-2\;{\times}\;10^3$ and an average transmittance above 80% in the visible range were attained for the films over a range of ${\delta}\;(0.3\;{\leq}\;{\delta}\;{\leq}\;0.5)$. The films also showed a high chemical stability with time and a good uniformity.
