This article is concerned with the overview of the activated carbon fibers. Firstly, this review provides a comprehensive survey of the overall processes for the synthesis of the activated carbon fibers from the carbonaceous materials. Subsequently, the physicochemical properties such as pore structures and surface oxygen functional groups of the activated carbon fibers were discussed in detail. Finally, as electrochemical applications of the activated carbon fibers to electrode materials for electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC), the electrochemical characteristics of the activated carbon fiber electrodes and the various methods to improve the capacitance and rate capability were introduced. In particular, the effect of pore length distribution (PLD) on kinetics of double-layer charging/discharging was discussed based upon the experimental and theoretical results in our work. And then we discussed in detail the applications of the activated carbon fibers to adsorbent materials for purification of liquid and gas.

In industry pneumatic control system has become a important means to obtain automation because of its simplicity, fast speed and low cost. However Due to of the compressibility of air and damping friction between moving parts, it is difficult to achieve high speed driving, accurate positioning and stopping without overshoot in one pneumatic control system. This paper describes the dynamic behaviors of pneumatic linear actuator. The results will be very useful in the prediction of actuated dynamics and for the manufacturers to improve the techniques in their redesign and get better performance. Also, the experimental data is very important for the dynamic simulation and theoretical analysis.

Bimodal Tram is driven by both engine and Lithium Polymer battery pack which consists with 168 cells of LPB(80Ah, 650Vdc). LPB pack is very frequently charged and discharged in driving. Temperature inside of LPB pack makes an great effect on both charging and discharging capacity which seem to be related with LPB internal resistance. LPB internal resistance is increasing or little decreasing with the decreased temperature under 10 - $20^{\circ}C$ and the increased temperature over $30^{\circ}C$ which is similar to the temperature characteristics of single LPB cell. This paper has analyzed the driving characteristics of LPB pack for bimodal tram is running with either battery mode or hybrid mode.

The epilayer of vertically stacked, self-assembled InAs Quantum Dots (QDs)was grown by MBE with solid sources in non-cracking K-cells, and the sample was fabricated to a FET structure using a conventional technology. The device characteristic and performance were studied. At 77K and room temperature, the threshold voltage shift values are 0.75V and 0.35 V, which are caused by the trapping and detrapping of electrons in the quantum dots. Discharging and charging curves form the part of a hysteresis loop to exhibit memory function. The electrical injection of confined electrons in QDs products the threshold voltage shift and memory function with the persistent electron trapping, which shows the potential use for a room temperature application.

Considering the world's environmental problem, HEVs are projected as one of the solution. The keys of the HEV cruise control are expanding the use of electric motor and operating the internal combustion engine in the efficient region. This paper presents a new structure of SOC sustaining model where state-machine control is used. The proposed model defines battery charging and discharging as states and SOC of the battery as control variables. In this paper, we introduce various methods in deterministic rule-based control for HEV and describe a new SOC sustaining controller used by state-machine.

In LD driver with HBT's. the speed characteristics of HBT's are deteriorated very much mainly due to the source resistance(Rs) of the signal applied to the LD driving HBT. We improved the bandwidth of LD driver by 2-5GHz with modifications of EF buffer. Because the modified buffers are composed of EF structure, their bandwidths are decreased rapidly as Rs is increased. When Rs is large these buffers decrease the bandwidth of the LD driver rather than increase it. To solve this problem, we propose a new buffer structure which contaings new charging and discharging path for the parasitic collector capacitance of the HBT. For Rs>100${\Omega}$, it shows superior characteristics of improving bandwidth to the EF buffers. It also shows good gain characteristics.

In this paper, an analogical method for measuring the electrical characteristics of the silent discharge in the Na2CO3 electrolyte is proposed by using an electrical equivalent model which consist of charging and discharging circuits. The electrical equivalent model is constructed with the use of zener diode and capacitor, and the electrical characteristics can be obtained by the voltage and charge traces which appear a simple parallelogram on the oscilloscope. The area enclosed by the parallelogram could be considered of the energy input per cycle, and is independent of the applied voltage waveform but dependent on the maximum applied voltage.

In this paper, the oxide currents of thin silicon oxides is investigated. The oxide currents associated with the on time of applied voltage were used to measure the distribution of voltage stress induced traps in thin silicon oxide films. The stress induced leakage currents were due to the charging and discharging of traps generated by stress voltage in the silicon oxides. The stress induced leakage current will affect data retention in memory devices. The oxide current for the thickness dependence of stress current and stress induced leakage currents has been measured in oxides with thicknesses between $109{\AA}$, $190{\AA}$, $387{\AA}$, and $818{\AA}$ which have the gate area $10^{-3}cm^2$. The oxide currents will affect data retention and the stress current, stress induced leakage current is used to estimate to fundamental limitations on oxide thicknesses.

A new low-cost asymmetric current-fed energy-recovery circuit (ERC) for a plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed. LC resonant circuit biased by $V_s/2$ and composed of single switch is used as ERC on both sides of the PDP, slow discharging and fast charging times can be employed, and inductor currents are built up before the PDP is charged and discharged. Therefore, it features a low cost, fully charged/discharged PDP, zero voltage switching (ZVS), low electromagnetic interference (EMI), low current stress, no severe voltage notch, and high energy-recovery capability.
