In this paper, 1%-nitrogen doped Nickel was used for improvement of thermal stability of Ni-Germanide. Proposed Ni-N(1%)/TiN structure has shown better thermal stability, sheet resistance and less agglomeration characteristic than pure Ni/TiN structure. During the germanidation process, it is believed that the nitrogen atoms in the deposited nickel layer can suppress the agglomeration of Ni germanide by retarding the diffusion of Ni atoms toward silicon layer, hence improve the thermal stability of Ni-germanide.

Photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) play an important role in water purification, and their application is beneficial for sustainable aquaculture. However, maintaining the microbial stability of PSB from subculturing to preservation is a challenging task. Since improvement in the microbial stability of PSB is a crucial parameter, optimized conditions for cell immobilization and lyophilization were investigated. In PSB immobilization, 0.1-M CaCl₂ was found to be the most effective divalent metal ion solution in terms of cost-effectiveness, resulting in beads with a 4-mm diameter and high loading (1.91×10⁹ CFU/mL) of viable cells. Maintenance of cell viability, external appearance, and color of PSB beads was best in 3.5% NaCl during storage. In lyophilization, the addition of skim milk (9%) and dextrose (2%) as cryoprotective additives allowed the highest cell viability. Over an 18-week shrimp breeding period, when optimally manufactured beads and lyophilized powder of PSB were applied to shrimp aquaculture water, NH⁴⁺, NO₃^-, and NO₂^- were more effectively removed by 55%, 100%, and 100%, respectively, compared to controls. Thus, microbial stability of PSB through optimized cell immobilization and lyophilization was successfully enhanced, enabling a wide application.

This study is aimed to develop an improved shellfish dredge vessel considering the increase of the fishing safety and welfare of fishermen in Jeonnam province. We visited five fishing village societies in Korea, and conducted field surveys and survey questions to investigate the current status. In order to solve the problems presented by the investigation, a general arrangement of the improvement vessel was written and adopted after meeting between the fishermen and research team, and calculated the initial stability in five loading conditions by using the Napa program. As a result of field surveys and survey questions, the existing vessel have buoyant materials under the bow and the warp pass through the wheel-house. In addition, most fishing equipment and nets are concentrated on a narrow stern, making it difficult to work efficiently. According to the survey, fishermen also responded that operation of casting and hauling is very inconvenient. The fishing equipment of the improvement vessel was rearranged, the size of the wheel-house and the crew room was increased, and we secured a basic welfare space. As a result of the initial stability test, the stability criteria of the fishing vessel were satisfied in all loading condition.

Stability criterion and its calculation are the crucial issue in the application of sail-assisted ship. However, there is at present no specific criterion and computational methods for the stability of sail-assisted ship. Based on the stability requirements for seagoing ships, the stability criterion of the sail-assisted ships is suggested in this paper. Furthermore, how to calculate the parameters and determine some specific coefficients for the ship stability calculation, as well as how to redraw stability curve are also discussed in this paper. Finally, to give an illustration, the proposed method is applied on a sail assisted-ship model with comments and recommendations for improvement.

본 논문에서는 전동화 수동 휠체어 INMEL-VII를 위한 주행 안정성과 제어기의 개선에 관하여 연구하였다. 기 개발된 INMEL-VI의 2년 여에 걸친 현장 실험에서 오르막길에서의 후방 전복으로 인한 주행안정성, 모터의 PWM 제어로 인한 스위칭 노이즈, 심한 내리막길에서 주행 명령이 없어도 모터가 회전하는 문제들이 지적되었다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 INMEL-VII에서는 모터와 구동축을 직결하고 출력을 증가시켰으며 바퀴의 중심축을 이동하여 무게중심을 안쪽으로 이동시켜서 후방 전복 임계 경사각을 크게 증가시켰고, 스위칭 주파수를 5kHz로 설정하기 위해 하드웨어를 개선하였다. 또한 INMEL-VII에서는 다양한 가속 및 감속 루틴으로 소프트웨어의도 개선하였다. 현장 주행 실험 결과 기계적 구성과 소프트웨어의 개선으로 인한 주행 안정성이 증가되고 다양한 조작이 가능해졌음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과로 장애자의 보행 보조기구연구에 기여하고 보행부자유자에게는 염가의 국산 전동휠체어를 사용할 수 있는 기화가 증가되기를 기대한다.

The purpose of present paper is to prove an improvement on stability of plane Journal bearing due to the leaf spring damper(LSD) experimentally A flexible rotor system is designed and manufackuea in order to generate oil whip instability of journal bearing at relative lower rotating speed. Vibration amplitude and instability onset speeds are investigated for a conventional plane journal bearing and plane journal bearing with LSD. To investigate the damping effects of LSD on stability of bearing, experiments are also conducted on the leaf spring dampers with and without working oil. It is found that the leaf spring damper can considerably increase the instability onset speed of a plane journal bearing.

Installation of FACTS(Flexible AC Transmission System) device can maximize utilization of existing power facilities and reliability of power system. STATCOM has excellent characteristics in operating cost, maintaining facilities, loss and so on. However, STATCOM has a disadvantage of facility cost over capacity. So it is effective to coordinate STATCOM and existing external bank(capacitor and reactor) and OLTC(On Load Tap Changer). This paper mainly proposes coordinative control method between STATCOM installed within substation and other reactive power resources including Shunt Reactors and Shunt Capacitors and OLTC for voltage stability improvement. The proposed coordinative control method is developed for the STATCOM of Mi-gum substation and the simulation results of EMTP/RV model show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In the analysis of metal forming processes by the finite element method, there are many numerical instabilities such as element locking, hourglass mode and shear locking. These instabilities may have a bad effect upon accuracy and convergence. The present work is concerned with improvement of stability and efficiency in two-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method using various type of elemenmts and numerical intergration schemes. As metal forming examples, upsetting and backward extrusion are taken for comparison among the methods: various element types and numerical integration schemes. Comparison is made in terms of stability and efficiency in element behavior and computational efficiency and a new scheme of adaptive directional reduced integration is introduced. As a result, the finite element computation has been stabilized from the viewpoint of computational time, convergency, and numerical instability.

This paper proposes the fuzzy logic based variable step-size MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) method for the stability at the steady state and the improvement of the transient response in the wind power system. If the change value of duty ratio is set on stability of the steady state, MPPT control traces to maximum power point slowly. And if the change value is set on improvement of the transient response, the system output oscillates at the maximum power point. By adjusting the step size with fuzzy logic, it can be improved the MPPT response speed and stability at steady state when MPPT control is performed to track the maximum power point. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been verified by simulations and experimental results.

This experimental study is the improvement of running stability for freight car. KNR (Korean National Railroad)'s conventional wagons, light bodies running on Barber style bogies with 5-1/$2{\times}10$ journals, would be considered fundamentally to be a most difficult car to control above 100km/h. From the results of experiment, to permit high speed operation safely, was realized with the resilient side bearing. Also, equipped with resilient side bearing, and elastowedge friction elements to eliminate bolster wedge pocket wear, KNR's wagons can be secure the running stability with lower maintenance requirements than current experience.
