Different housing systems have considerable influence on performance in poultry production. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to investigate the impact of different housing systems on the performance, bone mineral density and egg yolk fatty acid composition in laying hen. Hy-line brown pullets (n=450) of 12 weeks age were randomly divided into 3 housing systems with 6 replicates of 25 birds in each room. A diet with 2,750 kcal/kg ME and 16.5% CP was assigned to all birds. The pullets provided free access to feed and water. Significantly (P<0.05) higher values for egg production, egg mass and feed conversion efficiency were found in battery cages, however egg weight, egg shell color and breaking strength was remarkably (P<0.05) higher in floor system. The albumin height and Haugh unit were significantly higher (P<0.05) in battery cages which was statistically similar to aviary housing system. The egg yolk fatty acids concentration of linoleic acid and linolenic acids were significantly higher in aviary and in floor system, respectively, however both values were lower in battery cages. Saturated and unsaturated fatty acid content (%) in egg yolk did not influence by any housing systems. Bone mineral density was significantly higher (P<0.05) in floor and aviary housing system than that of battery cage system. It was concluded that in battery cages the egg production and composition maximized, however higher bone mineral density and yolk fatty acids content can be improved in the laying hen reared on floor and aviary housing systems.

Silicon-based thin film was prepared at room temperature by an electrochemical deposition method and a feasibility study was conducted for its use as an anode material in a rechargeable lithium battery. The growth of the electrodeposits was mainly concentrated on the surface defects of the Cu substrate while that growth was trivial on the defect-free surface region. Intentional formation of random defects on the substrate by chemical etching led to uniform formation of deposits throughout the surface. The morphology of the electrodeposits reflected first the roughened surface of the substrate, but it became flattened as the deposition time increased, due primarily to the concentration of reduction current on the convex region of the deposits. The electrodeposits proved to be amorphous and to contain chlorine and carbon, together with silicon, indicating that the electrolyte is captured in the deposits during the fabrication process. The silicon in the deposits readily reacted with lithium, but thick deposits resulted in significant reaction overvoltage. The charge efficiency of oxidation (lithiation) to reduction (delithiation) was higher in the relatively thick deposit. This abnormal behavior needs to clarified in view of the thickness dependence of the internal residual stress and the relaxation tendency of the reaction-induced stress due to the porous structure of the deposits and the deposit components other than silicon.

A Ni-W thin-film was synthesized by electrodeposition, and its corrosion resistance and electrical surface conductivity were investigated. Amount of tungsten in the Ni-W thin-film increased linearly with current density during the electrodeposition, and crack-free and low-crystalline Ni-21 at.%W coating layer was obtained. Corrosion resistances of the Ni-W thin-films were examined with an anodic polarization method and a storage test in a strong sulfuric acid solution. As a result, the Ni-21 at.%W thin-film exhibited the greatest corrosion resistance, and maintained the electrical surface conductivity even after the severe corrosion test, which could be applicable as a surface treatment for advanced metallic bipolar plates in fuel cell or redox flow battery systems.

A lithium metal anode with high energy density has the potential to revolutionize the field of energy storage systems (ESS) and electric vehicles (EVs) that utilize rechargeable lithium-based batteries. However, the formation of lithium dendrites during cycling reduces the performance of the battery while posing a significant safety risk. In this review, we discuss various strategies for achieving dendrite-free lithium metal anodes, including electrode surface modification, the use of electrolyte additives, and the implementation of protective layers. We analyze the advantages and limitations of each strategy, and provide a critical evaluation of the current state of the art. We also highlight the challenges and opportunities for further research and development in this field. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the different approaches to achieving dendrite-free lithium metal anodes, and to guide future research toward the development of safer and more efficient lithium metal anodes.

Emerging mobile edge computing (MEC) can be used in battery-constrained Internet of things (IoT). The execution latency of IoT applications can be improved by offloading computation-intensive tasks to an MEC server. Recently, the popularity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has increased rapidly, and UAV-based MEC systems are receiving considerable attention. In this paper, we propose a dynamic computation offloading paradigm for UAV-based MEC systems, in which a UAV flies over an urban environment and provides edge services to IoT devices on the ground. Since most IoT devices are energy-constrained, we formulate our problem as a Markov decision process considering the energy level of the battery of each IoT device. We also use model-free Q-learning for time-critical tasks to maximize the system utility. According to our performance study, the proposed scheme can achieve desirable convergence properties and make intelligent offloading decisions.

The electrochemical behavior of binder-free carbon anode, comprising of only artificial and natural graphite (AG and NG) particles, for intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ion $(Li^+)$ in aluminum chloride (AICI_3)-I-ethyl­3-methylimidazolium chloride (EMIC)-lithium chloride (LiCl)-thionyl chloride $(SOCI_2)$ room-temperature molten salt (RTMS) was studied. Binder-free carbon electrodes were fabricated using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. The binder-free carbon anodes provided a relatively flat charge and discharge potentials $(0\;to\;0.2V\;vs.\;Li/Li^+)$ and current capabilities $(250-340mAh{\cdot}g^{-1})$ for the intercalation and deintercalation of $Li^+$. Stability of the binder-free carbon anodes for intercalation and deintercalation of 50 cycles was confirmed.

본 논문에서는 배터리 관리 시스템 (BMS)에서 2차 전지 배터리를 통해 흐르는 전류의 정밀한 측정을 위한 cascaded-of-integrator feedforward (CIFF) 구조의 단일 비트 2차 델타-시그마 모듈레이터를 제안하였다. 제안된 모듈레이터는 2개의 스위치드 커패시터 적분기, 단일 비트 비교기, 비중첩 클록 발생기 및 바이어스와 같은 주변 회로로 구현하였다. 제안된 구조는 낮은 공통 모드 입력 전압을 가지는 low-side 전류 측정 방법에 적용되도록 설계되었다. Low-side 전류 측정 방법을 사용하면 회로 설계에 부담이 줄어들게 되는 장점을 가진다. 그리고 ±30mV 입력 전압을 15비트 해상도를 가지는 ADC로 분해하기 때문에 추가적인 programmable gain amplifier (PGA)를 구현할 필요가 없어 수 mW의 전력소모를 줄일 수 있다. 제안된 단일 비트 2차 CIFF 델타-시그마 모듈레이터는 350nm CMOS 공정으로 구현하였으며 5kHz 대역폭에 대해 400의 oversampling ratio (OSR)로 95.46dB의 signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR), 96.01dB의 spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) 및 15.56비트의 effective-number-of-bits (ENOB)을 달성하였다. 델타 시그마 모듈레이터의 면적 및 전력 소비는 각각 670×490㎛2 및 414㎼이다.

최근, 도서지역에서는 $CO_2$ 배출의 저감을 위하여, 디젤발전기의 가동률을 줄이고 신재생에너지전원의 비중을 높여, 계통을 안정적으로 운용할 수 있는 방안들이 연구되고 있다. 특히, Carbon free를 목표로 하는 도서지역용 Micro-grid에서는 CVCF(constant voltage & constant frequency) 인버터를 기반으로 운용되는데, CVCF 인버터용 배터리의 SOC(state of charge) 상태에 따라, 계통의 부하소비 보다 신재생에너지전원의 출력이 큰 경우에 CVCF 인버터 내에서 발생하는 에너지 Sinking에 의하여, 배터리측 전압이 급격히 상승하여, 인버터의 과전압 보호동작에 의해 CVCF 인버터가 급격하게 탈락되어 계통에 정전이 발생하는 문제점이 일어날 수 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 CVCF 인버터를 기반으로 한 도서지역용 Micro-grid의 안정적인 운용을 위하여, 에너지 Sinking 시에 발생 가능한 CVCF 인버터의 탈락을 사전에 방지하는 과도상태 운용알고리즘을 제안한다. 또한, PSCAD/EMTDC의 모델링을 이용하여, 제안한 알고리즘을 적용한 Micro-grid의 과도상태 운용특성을 분석한 결과, 배터리의 전압과 SOC에 따라 CVCF 인버터가 탈락하는 과도상태를 사전에 방지할 수 있어, 본 논문의 유용성을 확인하였다.

A control scheme for the Voltage-sourced PWM converter based on space vector equations is introduced. The main advantages of this new control scheme are that sinusoidal line currents with nearly unity power factor, ripple-free DC voltage output are achevied without current sensors. The dynamical equations with battery model is derived. The proposed scheme is verified by computer simulation.
