A linear carbon chain with pure sp hybridization has been intensively studied for the application of its intrinsic electrical properties to electronic devices. Owing to the high chemical reactivity derived from its unsaturated bond, encapsulation by carbon nanotubes (CNT) is provided as a promising method to stabilize the geometry of the linear carbon chain. Although the influence of CNT on the carbon chain has extensively been studied in terms of both electronic structure and geometries, the electron transport properties has not been discussed yet. In this regard, we provide the systematic atomic-scale analyses of the properties of the linear carbon chain within CNT based on a computational approach combining density-functional theory (DFT) and matrix green function (MGF) method. Based on the DFT calculations, the influence of CNT on electronic structures of the linear carbon chain is provided as well as its electrical origin. Via MGF calculations, we also identify the electron transport properties of the carbon chain - CNT complex.

Thermal transport in nanomaterials is not only scientifically interesting but also technological important for various future electronic, bio, and energy device applications. Among the various computation approaches to investigate lattice thermal transport phenomena in nanoscale, the atomistic nonequilibrium Green's function approach based on first-principles density functional theory calculations appeared as a promising method given the continued miniaturization of devices and the difficulty of developing classical force constants for novel nanoscale interfaces. Among the nanometerials, carbon atomic chains, namely the cumulene (all-doulble bonds, ${\cdots}C=C=C=C{\cdots}$) and polyyne (alternation of single and triple bonds, ${\cdots}C{\equiv}C-C{\equiv}C{\cdots}$) can be considered as the extream cases of interconnction materials for nanodevices. After the discovery and realization of carbon atomic chains, their electronic transport properties have been widely studied. For the thermal transport properties, however, there have been few literatures for this simple linear chain system. In this work, we first report on the development of a non-equilibrium Green's function theory-based computational tool for atomistic thermal transport calculations of nanojunctions. Using the developed tool, we investigated phonon dispersion and transmission properties of polyethylene (${\cdots}CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2{\cdots}$) and polyene (${\cdots}CH-CH-CH-CH{\cdots}$) structures as well as the cumulene and polyyne. The resulting phonon dispersion from polyethylene and polyene showed agreement with previous results. Compared to the cumulene, the gap was found near the ${\Gamma}$ point of the phonon dispersion of polyyne as the prediction of Peierls distortion, and this feature was reflected in the phonon transmission of polyyne. We also investigated the range of interatomic force interactions with increase in the size of the simulation system to check the convergence criteria. Compared to polyethylene and polyene, polyyne and cumulene showed spatially long-ranged force interactions. This is reflected on the differences in phonon transport caused by the delicate differences in electronic structure.

탄소나노물질은 대표적인 나노물질로써, 풀러렌, 탄소나노튜브, 그래핀 등을 포함한다. 탄소나노물질은 다양한 분야에서 널리 이용되고 있는데, 생산, 사용, 처리 등의 단계에서 환경에 노출될 수 있고, 일단 노출이 되면 다양한 계로 확산되어 여러 생태학적 수용체에 큰 위협이 될 수 있다. 탄소나노물질이 토양환경에 노출되었을 때, 물의 흐름을 따라 토양을 통과하여 지하수에 노출될 가능성 여부를 판단하기 위하여 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 토양이 탄소나노물질의 이동을 제한하는 역할을 잘하는 것으로 판단될 경우에는, 탄소나노물질의 지하수 노출 가능성이 상당히 낮아질 것이다. 본 논문에서는 최근까지 토양 매질체에서 탄소나노물질의 이동과 관련하여 수행된 연구들을 정리하였다. 또한, 이러한 연구들을 통해 알려진 탄소나노물질의 이동에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 제시하였다. 그리고, 탄소나노물질의 이동을 모사하는데 이용되는 DLVO이론, 콜로이드 여과이론 그리고 이동모델을 제시하였다. 최근, 국내에서도 탄소나노물질의 생산과 상업적, 환경적 이용이 급속히 증가하고 있다. 따라서, 국내에서 생산되고 유통되는 탄소나노물질의 토양환경에서 이동에 관한 연구들이 향후에도 다양한 토양 환경조건에서 수행되어야 할 것으로 보인다.

The concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), which is one of the major greenhouse gases, continues to rise with the increase in fossil fuel consumption. In order to mitigate global warming the amount of CO2 discharge to the atmosphere must be reduced. Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technology is now regarded as one of the most promising options. To complete the carbon cycle in a CCS system, a huge amount of captured CO2 from major point sources such as power plantsshould be transported for storage into the marine or ground geological structures. Since 2005, we have developed technologies for marine geological storage of CO2,including possible storage site surveys and basic design of CO2 transport and storage process. In this paper, the design parameters which will be useful to construct on-shore and off-shore CO2 transport systems are deduced and analyzed. To carry out this parametric study, we suggested variations in thedesign parameters such as flow rate, diameter, temperature and pressure, based on a hypothetical scenario. We also studied the fluid flow behavior and thermal characteristics in a pipeline transport system.

Carbon nanotubes hold much promise as future materials for safe storage of hydrogen. In this paper, hydrogen transport mechanisms in single-walled carbon nano-tubes (SWNTs) for various temperatures and chiral indices were studied using molecular dynamics simulation method. The SWNT models of zigzag (10,0), chiral (10,5) and armchair (10,10) with hydrogen molecules inside were simulated at temperatures ranging from 253K to 373K. Movements of hydrogen molecules ($H_2$) inside a SWNT were analyzed using mean-square displacements and velocity autocorrelation functions.

As environmental problems around the world become serious, Korea has also raised the greenhouse gas reduction in the building sector to 32.8% compared to 2018, and efforts to reduce carbon in buildings are expanding. Recently, research is being actively conducted to reduce carbon in the long term by expanding the scope of greenhouse gas indirect emissions (Scope3), and even within the domestic Green Standard for Energy and Environmental Design(G-SEED) by quantitatively evaluating the environmental impact of buildings during the entire life cycle. However, it is difficult to accurately evaluate the carbon emission of the transportation process by assuming the material transport distance in the evaluation of the Life Cycle Assessment(LCA). Therefore, in this study, the main building materials of the building were selected through case evaluation and the carbon emission of the material transport process was derived based on the actual transport distance, and this was compared and analyzed with the theoretical LCA results.

최근 전세계적으로 환경에 대한 관심이 커지고, 국제사회가 '탄소중립'을 선언하면서 '탄소'를 고려한 다양한 수단선택모형 연구가 실시되고 있으나, 탄소에 대한 개인성향을 반영한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 탄소저감형 이동수단(전동킥보드 등)을 포함한 대중교통 서비스로 SPT(Sustainable Public Transit)라는 새로운 수단을 제시하고, 수도권 통근자를 대상으로 실시한 SP(Stated Preference)조사를 활용하여 요인분석을 통해 응답자의 탄소에 대한 개인성향을 분석한 후, 다항로짓모형을 활용하여 SPT에 대한 수단선택모형을 구축하였다. 분석 결과, SPT 잠재선호에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 성별, 소득, 개인성향('새로운경로 탐색에 대한 열정', '수단간 환승 선호', '탄소저감지식', '탄소저감실천') 변수가 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 본 연구는 수단선택모형 구축시 수단의 속성변수로 탄소배출량을 선정하거나, 탄소저감과 관련한 개인성향 변수를 구축했다는 부분에서 의의가 있다.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies involve three major stages, i.e., capture, transport, and storage. The transportation stage of CCS technologies has received relatively little attention because the requirements for $CO_2$ transport differ based on the industry-related conditions, geological, and demographical characteristics of each country. In this study, we analyzed the properties of $CO_2$ transport using a pipeline. This study has important implications for ensuring the stability of a long-term CCS as well as the large cost savings, as compared to the small cost ratio as a percentage of the entire CCS system. The state of $CO_2$, network topologies, and node distribution are among the major factors that influence $CO_2$ transport via pipelines. For the analysis of the properties of $CO_2$ transport using a pipeline, the $CO_2$ pipeline connections were visualized by the simulator developed by Lee [11] based on the network topologies in $CO_2$ transport. The case of Korean CCS technologies was applied to the simulation.

A fully coupled fluid flow, heat, and solute transport model was developed to investigate turbulent flow, solidification, and macrosegregation in a continuous casting process of steel slab with EMBR. Transport equations of mass, momentum, energy, and species for a binary iron-carbon alloy system were solved using a continuum model. The electromagnetic field was described by the Maxwell equations. A finite-volume method was employed to solve the conservation equations associated with appropriate boundary conditions. The effects of intensity of magnetic field and carbon segregation were investigated. The electromagnetic field reduces the velocity of molten flow in the mold and an increase in the percentage of C in steel results in a decrease of carbon segregation ratio.

The KN-12 transport cask has been designed to transport 12 PWR spent nuclear fuel assemblies and to comply with the regulatory requirements for a Type B(U) package. The containment boundary of the cask is defined by a cask body, a cask lid, lid bolts with nuts, O-ring seals and a bolted closure lid. The containment vessel for the cask consists of a forged thick-walled carbon steel cylindrical body with an integrally-welded carbon steel bottom and is closed by a lid made of stainless steel, which is fastened to the cask body by lid bolts with nuts and sealed by double elastomer O-rings. In the cask lid an opening is closed by a plug with an O-ring seal and covered by the bolted closure lid sealed with an O-ring. The cask must maintain a radioactivity release rate of not more than the regulatory limit for normal transport conditions and for hypothetical accident conditions, as required by the related regulations. The containment requirements of the cask are satisfied by maintaining a maximum air reference leak rate of $2.7{\times}10^{-4}ref.cm^3s^{-1}$ or a helium leak rate of $3.3{\times}10^{-4}cm^3s^{-1}$ for normal transport conditions and for hypothetical accident conditions.
