The modular multilevel cascade converter (MMCC) is a new family of multilevel power converters with modular realization and a cascaded pattern for submodules. The MMCC family can be classified by basic configurations and submodule types. One member of this family, the Hexverter, is configured as Double-Delta Full-Bridge (DDFB). It is a novel multilevel AC/AC converter with direct power conversion and comparatively fewer required components. It is appropriate for connecting two three-phase systems with different frequencies and driving an AC motor directly from a utility grid. This paper presents the dq model of a Hexverter with both of its AC systems by state-space representation, which then simplifies the continuous time-varying model into a periodic discrete time-invariant one. Then a generalized multivariable optimal control strategy for regulating the Hexverter's independent currents is developed. The resulting control structure can be adapted to other MMCCs and is flexible enough to include other control criterion while guaranteeing the original controller performance. The modeling method and control design are verified by simulation results.

죽상동맥경화증(atherosclerosis)은 동맥에 플라크가 쌓여 혈류 장애를 일으키는 만성 혈관염증 질환으로 심장병과 뇌졸중을 일으킬 수 있다. 하지만 대부분은 동맥이 심하게 좁아질 때까지 증상이 없기 때문에 조기 발견이 중요하다. 본 논문은 튜브 모양의 혈관에서 경화성 병변을 효과적으로 진단하기 위해 MRI 영상에 혈관 중심을 기준으로 극좌표 변환을 적용하였다. 그리고, 극좌표 영상의 각도별 연속된 신호정보를 이용하는 SE-LSTMNet 모델을 제안한다. 학습된 모델은 검증 데이터에 대해 정확도 0.9194, 민감도 0.9370, 특이도 0.8796, F1 score 0.8700, AUC 0.9719의 분류 성능을 보였다.

We report the effect of physical load on the stability of organic solar cells under physical loads. The active layers in organic solar cells were fabricated with bulk heterojunction films (BHJ) films of poly (3-hexylthiophene) and phenyl-$C_{61}$-butyric methyl ester. The loading time was varied up to 60 s by keeping the physical load constant. Results showed that the open circuit voltage was not influenced by the physical load but other solar cell parameters were sensitive to the loading time. The fill factor was very slightly increased at 15 s, while short circuit current density was well kept for 30 s. The power conversion efficiency was reasonably maintained for 45 s but became significantly decreased by the continuous loading for 60 s.

현대 무선 통신에서는 제한된 주파수 자원을 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 스펙트럼 효율성이 매우 중요한 문제로 여겨지고 있다. 또한 시스템구조 측면에서는 저 가격, 저 전력 및 초경량에 목표를 두고 제작되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 직접 디지털 주파수합성기(DDS ; Direct Digital Synthesize.)를 이용하여 스펙트럼 효율이 우수한 BCPFSK(Binary Continuous Phase Frequency Shift Keying)를 직접 변조하였으며, 시스템 구조로는 직접 변환(Direct Conversion) 구조를 적용하여, 433 MHz대의 BCPFSK 출력을 갖는 송 ·수신기를 설계하고 성능을 평가하였다.

Application of pervaporative extraction of ethanol to simultaneous saccharification and fermentation(SSF) of cellulose was investigated. From batch experiments, optimum cellulose substrate and enzyme loadings were found to be 10% and 15 IFPU/g cellulose, respectively. The cellulose conversion was lowered in fed-batch system due to the ethanol accumulation. The activity of the yeast Saccharomyces uvarum used in this study was significantly reduced at ethanol concentrations above around 40 g/L. From pervaporation experiments using PDMS membrane, ethanol was efficiently separated at 38$^\circ C$ and 10 mmHg of a down stream pressure. The pervaporation unit with 240 cm$^2$ of surface area was combined into the SSF reactor. The continuous removal of ethanol by pervaporation during SSF resulted in an improved cellulose conversion. Within the scope of this experiment, ethanol yields in the pervaporative SSF and simple SSF were 68.3% and 56.6%, respectively. The permeate flux for SSF broth pervaporation was about one-half that for the pervaporation of aqueous ethanol solution. Accordingly, the development of a membrane with higher ethanol selectivity and flux will increase the feasibility of this technology.

The CO molecules adsorbed on Ni(111) surface is studied in the cluster approximation employing EH method with self-consistent charge iteration. The effect of CO coverage is simulated by allowing the variation of valence state ionization potentials of each Ni atom in model cluster according to the self-consistent charge iteration method. The CO coverage dependent C-O stretching frequency shift, adsorption site conversion, and metal work function change are attributed to the charge transfer between metal surface and adsorbate. For CO/Ni(111) system, net charge transfer from Ni surface to chemisorbed CO molecules makes surface Ni atoms be more positive with increasing coverage, and lowers Ni surface valence band. This leads to a weaker interaction between metal surface valence band and Co $2{\pi}^{\ast}$ MO, less charge transfer to a single CO molecule, and the bule shift of C-O stretching frequency. Further increase of coverage induces the conversion of 3-fold site CO to lower coordination site CO as well as the blue shift of C-O stretching frequency. This whole process is accompanied by the continuous increase of metal work function.

생성물의 분리 및 효소의 회수를 위하여 수평흐름 한외여과장치를 부착한 기포탑에서 섬유소의 연속적인 효소 가수분해 반응을 연구하였다. 기포탑을 효소 가수분해 반응 공정에 이용할 경우 기체유속의 범위는 1-3cm / sec로 기포의 합체현상이 발생하지 않는 dispersed bubble flow 영역이 적합하며 혼합도 거의 완전하게 이루어짐을 확인하였다. 효소 회수장치에 한계분자량이 $10^4$인 여과막을 사용하였을 경우 효소의 활성이 저하되지 않은 채 대부분이 회수되었고 glucose 및 cellobiose의 배제율은 0이었다. 따라서 수평흐름 한외 여과장치는 효소의 연속회수장치로 작합하였으며 반응생성물이 연속적인 분리로 섬유소의 당화율을 증가시켰다. 화분식 반응의 경우 반응시간이 8시간이내에서 실험치는 성능식에 잘 부합되었으나 반연속식 및 연속식 반응의 경우에는 이론값과 차이가 있었다. 이는 반응기 내에서의 효소의 변성에 기인된다. 반연속식 및 연속식 반응의 경우 희석율을 증가시킴에 따라 전환율은 증가하나 반응액중의 환원당의 농도는 낮아진다. 따라서 적정한 기질 공급속도 및 희석율은 효소의 회수비용, 생성물의 농축비용 및 기질의 공급비용등의 경제적 요소를 고려하여 판단하여야 한다. 이상의 결과로부터 수평흐름 한외여과장치를 효소 회수장치로 기포탑에 응용할 경우, 효소의 재사용이 가능할 뿐 아니라 당화율을 증가시킴으로서 연속반응기로 효과적이라고 판단되었다.

In this paper, a digital controller for satisfying time response requirements for UPS inverters is designed in a fixed sampling time. The CRA (Characteristic Ratio Assignment) is used as the continuous time design method to deal with the problems of overshoot and settling time. The main design approaches are the inward and outward approaches based on a double-loop feedback structure. The continuous-time controller is discretized by the emulation method. The performances of the proposed controller are evaluated through several simulations carried out with Simpower System Toolbox 3.0 from Simulink$^{(R)}.

Electro-chemo-mechanical devices or artificial muscles based on conducting polymers (CP) are presented as bilayers, CP/adhesive polymer, or as triple layers, CP/adhesive polymer/CP. Those soft and wet materials, working in aqueous solutions of a salt, mimic the composition of most organs from animals. Under electrochemical control, so working as new electrical machines, they produce continuous, reverse and elegant bending movements, mimicking those produce by animal muscles. By means of the current a perfect controls of the movement rate is attained giving soft and continuous movements. Muscles able to sense the chemical and mechanical conditions of work or muscle having tactile sense, as will be presented here, are being developed. All of them are founded on the non-stoichiometric nature of the soft and wet materials.
