This study is on sealing leakage holes where are in landfills to make clay cakes with clay particles, which have a negative surface charge using the method of electrophoresis. Generally, electrophoresis is the motion of charged particles in a colloid under the influence of an electric field; particles with a positive charge go to the cathode and negative to the anode. In this study in order to develop the prevention system of leakages of the leachate in landfills, one-dimensional electrophoresis tests were conducted for determining the properties of the motion of the electrophoresis and cutoff using the method of electrophoresis depending on various the effect factors such as types of clays, concentrations of the clays, and applied electric field. In case of the experiments of determining the optimum clays, Na and Ca-Bentonite, Na and Ca-Montmorillonite, which have greater zeta-potential, cation, exchange capacity as well as ability of cutoff, and Micro-cement inducing cementation were chosen and then the effect of those clays was investigated. Moreover, the properties of the motion and settling of the clays were investigated following electric field varied from 0 to 1V/cm at different concentration of the clays in order to determine both the properties of the motion of the clays and the efficiency of electric field when applying different direct current. Ultimately, the ability of cutoff was examined through measuring the permeability of the clay cakes derived from the one-dimensional electrophoresis tests.

The electro-reheoligical(ER) effect refers to the abrupt change in viscosity in certain suspensions on application of an electric field. This paper presents experimental results on material properties of an ER fluids subjected to electrical fatigues. As a first step, two types of EF fluids are made of arabic gum and methyl cellulose(MC) choosing 25% of parti-cle weight-concentration. Following the construction of test mechanism for electrical durability of ER fluid, the dynamic yield shear stress and current density of the ER fluids are experimentally distilled as a function of electric field. The yield shear stress of operated ER fluids are distilled and compared with those of unused ER fluids.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is being spotlighted as a next-generation power semiconductor material owing to the characteristic limitations of the existing silicon materials. SiC has a wider band gap, higher breakdown voltage, higher thermal conductivity, and higher saturation electron mobility than those of Si. When using this material to implement Schottky barrier diode (SBD) devices, SBD-state operation loss and switching loss can be greatly reduced as compared to that of traditional Si. However, actual SiC SBDs exhibit a lower dielectric breakdown voltage than the theoretical breakdown voltage that causes the electric field concentration, a phenomenon that occurs on the edge of the contact surface as in conventional power semiconductor devices. Therefore in order to obtain a high breakdown voltage, it is necessary to distribute the electric field concentration using the edge termination structure. In this paper, we designed an edge termination structure using a field plate structure through oxide etch angle control, and optimized the structure to obtain a high breakdown voltage. We designed the edge termination structure for a 650 V breakdown voltage using Sentaurus Workbench provided by IDEC. We conducted field plate experiments. under the following conditions: $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, and $75^{\circ}$. The experimental results indicated that the oxide etch angle was $45^{\circ}$ when the breakdown voltage characteristics of the SiC SBD were optimized and a breakdown voltage of 681 V was obtained.

A polymer-based multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) field emission device was fabricated from a composite dispersion of MWCNTs and waterborne polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). The waterborne PMMA synthesized through the emulsion polymerization method was added to minimize the reagglomeration of dispersed MWCNTs with surfactants in water, and increase the adhesion between the and the substrate. The field emission properties of the fabricated device were optimized by adjusting the density of the emitter and the adhesion between the MWCNTs and the substrate. These were done by controlling the polymer concentration added to the MWCNT dispersion, as well as the amount of spray coating on the substrate. The results confirm the successful fabrication of a polymer-based MWCNT field emission device with a low field of 1.07 $V/{\mu}m$ and a good electric field enhancement factor of 2445. The device was fabricated by adding 0.8 mg/mL of polymer solution to the MWCNT dispersion and applying 20 cycles of spray coating. Application of this same MWCNT/polymer composite solution to a flexible polymer substrate also resulted in the successful fabrication of an electric field emission device with uniform emission and long time stability.

The piezoelectric properties and the doping effect for $0.95Pb(Zr_xTi_{l-x})O_3+0.O5Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$compositions were studied. Also, the heat generation and the change of electromechanical characteristics, the important problem in practical usage, were investigated under high electric field driving. As a experiment results under low electric field, the value of $k_p$ and ${\varepsilon}_{33}^T$ were maximized, but $Q_m$ was minimized $(k_p=0.57, Q_m=1550)$ in the composition of x=0.51. In order to increase the values of $Q_m$, $Nb_2O_5$ was used as a dopant. As the result of that, the grain size was suppressed and the uniformity of grain was improved. Also, the values of $k_p$ decreased, and the values of $Q_m$ increased with doping concentration of $Nb_2O_5$ . As a experiment results under high electric field driving, when vibration velocity was ower than 0.6[m/s], the temperature increase was 20[℃], and the change ratio of mechanical quality factor was less than 10[%]. So, its electromechanical characteristics was very stable. Conclusively, piezoelectric ceramic composition investigated at this paper is suitable for application to high power piezoelectric devices.

The objective of the current study is to determine cross-sectional profile of intermediate dies in order to improve the plastic strain homogeneity which directly affects not only the dimensional accuracy but also the mechanical properties of final product by redesigning the intermediate dies using the conventional electric field analysis (EFA) method. Initially, the multi-pass shape wire drawing was designed by using the equivalent potential lines from EFA. The area reduction ratio was calculated from the number of passes in multi-pass shape wire drawing but constrained by the capacity of the drawing machine and the drawing force. In order to compensate for a concentration of strain in a region of the cross section of the wire, the process for multi pass wire drawing from initial round material to an intermediate die was redesigned again using the electric field analysis. Both drawing process designs were simulated by the finite element method in which the strain distribution and standard deviation plastic strain of the cross section of drawn wires were examined.

The numerical simulation of wind and ozone ($O_3$) transport in mountainous regions was performed with a computational fluid dynamics technique. A dry deposition model for $O_3$ was designed to estimate $O_3$ deposition in complex terrain, and the qualitative validity of the predicted $O_3$ concentration field was confirmed by comparison with observed data collected with passive samplers. The simulation revealed that wind velocity increases around ridge lines and peaks of mountains. The areas with strong wind corresponded well with the sites of tree decline at high altitudes, suggesting that it is an important factor in the localization of tree/forest decline. On the other hand, there is no direct relationship between forest decline and $O_3$ concentration. The $O_3$ concentration, however, tends to increase as wind velocity becomes higher, thus the $O_3$ concentration itself may be a potential secondary factor in the localized decline phenomena. While the diffusion flux of $O_3$ is not related to localized tree decline, the pattern of advection flux is related to those of high wind velocity and localized tree decline. These results suggest that strong wind with large advection flux of $O_3$ may play a key role in the promotion of tree/forest decline at high mountain ridges and peaks.

The electrorheological (ER) behavior of suspensions in silicone oil of silica gel powder (average particle size 49 $\mu$m) absorbed water was investigated at room temperature with electric fields up to 2.4 KV/mm. In this paper, for development of succcessful ER fluids used for wide temperature range later, we would like to know a fundamental understanding of water on ER effect. As a first step, the ER fluids involving water activated silica gel were measured not only the electrical characteristics such as dielectric constant, current density and electrical conductivity but also the rheological properties on the strength of electric field, the quantity of dispersed phase and absorbed water. From the experimental results that water absorbed to the particles directly affects to the surface charge density of electric double layer model proposed by Schwarz and makes dielectric constant and current density of ER fluids increase. The current density and dynamic yield stress $($\tau$_y)$ of water activated silica gel suspensions was in exponential proportion to the strength of electric field, the quantity of dispersed phase and absorbed water. And the optimum water quantity and weight concentration of silica gel for electrorheological effect were 4-5 wt% and 15 wt%, respectively.

In this paper, the effect of $O_2$ concentration on NO removal and $NO_2$ generation by corona discharge from simulated flue gas was measured and estimated for the wire-plate reactor. $NO_2$ removal rate was 0$\sim$30[%] under about 3.4[%] of oxygen concentration, however, it was difficult to remove NOx over 3.4[%] of oxygen concentration. It may be due to generate $NO_2$ from $N_2$ and $O_2$ molecules and converse NO to $NO_2$ by 0 and $O_3$. Magnetic field applied to electric field in plasma was very effective for NOx removal under 2[%] of $O_2$ concentration.

In this paper, the electromagnetic shielding performance of a BiMODAL Tram is investigated by means of an electromagnetic analysis tool, called HFSS. For the purposed of doing this, first, three-dimensional finite element modeling for the tram including electronic devices and engine room is carried out. Then, for quantitatively assessing the electromagnetic shielding performance of the tram's body, concentration indexes for electric field magnitude and time-average stored electric energy are introduced. From numerical results, it is inferred that the tram's body can protect the electronic devices and engine room against external electromagnetic waves from 30 MHz to 100 MHz.
