Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) studies on 59 cinnamaldehyde analogues as Farnesyl Protein Transferase (FPTase) inhibitors were investigated using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) with the PLS region-focusing method. Forty-nine training set inhibitors were used for CoMFA with two different grid spacings, $2{\AA}\;and\;1{\AA}$ Ten compounds, which were not used in model generation, were used to validate the CoMFA models. After the PLS analysis, the best predictive CoMFA model showed that the cross-validated value $(r^2_{cv})$ and the non-cross validated conventional value$(r^2_{ncv})$ are 0.557 and 0.950, respectively. From the CoMFA contour maps, the steric and electrostatic properties of cinnamaldehyde analogues can be identified and verified.

In this paper, a new semi-analytical solution for estimating the pull-in parameters of electrically actuated functionally graded (FG) nanobeams is proposed. All the bulk and surface material properties of the FG nanoactuator vary continuously in thickness direction according to power law distribution. Here, the modified couple stress theory (MCST) and Gurtin-Murdoch surface elasticity theory (SET) are jointly employed to capture the size effects of the nanoscale beam in the context of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. According to the MCST and SET and accounting for the mid-plane stretching, axial residual stress, electrostatic actuation, fringing field, and dispersion (Casimir or/and van der Waals) forces, the nonlinear nonclassical equation of motion and boundary conditions are obtained derived using Hamilton principle. The proposed semi-analytical solution is derived by employing Galerkin method in conjunction with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) method. The proposed solution approach is validated with the available literature. The freestanding behavior of nanoactuators is also investigated. A parametric study is conducted to illustrate the effects of different material and geometrical parameters on the pull-in response of cantilever and doubly-clamped FG nanoactuators. This model and proposed solution are helpful especially in mechanical design of micro/nanoactuators made of FGMs.

To achieve high transport current without degradation under magnetic field, it is essential to artificially generate the pinning sites at which moving magnetic flux can be pinned. In this work, $ZrO_2$ nanodots were formed on the substrate surface using electro-spray deposition method. On top of the nanodots, the extended and effective pinning centers can be created. The positively charged Zr precursor solution was sprayed out from the needle using the corona discharge phenomena. Then, the sprayed precursor was deposited onto the negatively charged substrate surface followed by the heat treatment under the controlled atmosphere. Using the electrostatic force among the charged particles of precursor, evenly distributed and nano-sized dots were formed on the substrate surface. The size and density of the nanodots were studied by Atomic Force Microscopy. Also discussed are the effect of the deposition time and solution concentration on the size and density of the nanodot and processing variables in electro-spray method for the effective flux pinning centers in the superconducting films.

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are some of the most efficient electrochemical energy sources for transportation applications because of their clean, green, and high efficiency characteristics. The optimization of catalyst layer morphology is considered a feasible approach to achieve high performance of PEMFC membrane electrode assembly (MEA). In this work, we studied the effect of the solvent on the catalyst layer of PEMFC MEAs fabricated using the electrostatic spray deposition method. The catalyst ink comprised of Pt/C, a Nafion ionomer, and a solvent. Two types of solvent were used: isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and dimethylformamide (DMF). Compared with the catalyst layer prepared using IPA-based ink, the catalyst layer prepared with DMF-based ink had a dense structure because the DMF dispersed the Pt/C-Nafion agglomerates smaller and more homogeneously. The size distribution of the agglomerates in catalyst ink was confirmed through Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and the microstructure of the catalyst layer was compared using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In addition, the electrochemical investigation was performed to evaluate the solvent effect on the fuel cell performance. The catalyst layer prepared with DMF-based ink significantly enhanced the cell performance (1.2 A cm-2 at 0.5 V) compared with that fabricated using IPA-based ink (0.5 A cm-2 at 0.5 V) due to the better dispersion and uniform agglomeration on the catalyst layer.

Charged micro-particles are widely used as the key components for many electrical applications such as an e-paper, a touch panel, a printer toner and an electronic ink. Among them, the e-paper is an emerging reflective type display using the charged particles that has the advantages of the extremely low power consumption and sunlight readability. To create images on the e-paper, we confine black positively-charged and white negatively-charged particles between bottom and top electrodes and selectively apply the electric field. When the Coulomb force by an applied electric field is greater than the adhesion force between the charged particle and the electrode, the particles' transition happens resulting in the change of color between black and white. Therefore, the adhesion force is a very important factor for designing and estimating e-paper's operation. In this study, we constructed a basic model for particle's transition and an adhesion force equation describing particle's transition with three different forces: electrostatic image force, Van der Waals force and gravitational force. The simulation results showed that the gravitational force is negligible for the interesting range for the charge and the radius, and the adhesion force can be strongly dependent on the particle's charge and radius.

In this paper, the unipolar corona-needle charger was developed and its capabilities were both numerically and experimentally investigated. The experimental corona discharges and particle losses in the charger were obtained at different corona voltage, aerosol flow rate and particle diameter for positive and negative coronas. Inside the charger, the electric field and charge distribution and the transport behavior of the charged particle were predicted by a numerical simulation. The experimental results yielded the highest ion number concentrations of about $1.087{\times}10^{15}ions/m^3$ for a positive corona voltage of about 3.2 kV, and $1.247{\times}10^{16}ions/m^3$ for a negative corona voltage of about 2.9 kV, and the highest $N_it$ product for positive and negative coronas was found to about $7.53{\times}10^{13}$ and $8.65{\times}10^{14}ions/m^3$ s was occurred at the positive and negative corona voltages of about 3.2 and 2.9 kV, respectively, and the flow rate of 0.3 L/min. The highest diffusion loss was found to occur at particles with diameter of 30 nm to be about 62.50 and 19.33 % for the aerosol flow rate of 0.3 and 1.5 L/min, respectively, and the highest electrostatic loss was found to occur at particles with diameters of 75 and 50 nm to be about 86.29 and 72.92 % for positive and negative corona voltages of about 2.9 and 2.5 kV, respectively. The numerical results for the electric field distribution and the charged particles migration inside the charger were used to guide the description of the electric field and the behavior of charged particle trajectories to improve the design and refinement of a unipolar corona-needle charger that otherwise could not be seen from the experimental data.

새로운 2-(4-chloro-5-(2-chloroallyloxy)-2-fluorophenyl)-3-thioalkoxy-2,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydroisoindol-1-one 유도체의 hexahydroisoindol-1-one 고리상 R-치환기 변화에 따른 논피(Echinochloa crusgalli)와 벼(Orysa sativa L.)에 대한 제초활성에 관한 비교 분자장 분석(CoMFA) 모델을 유도하고 두 초종에 대한 선택성에 관하여 논의하였다. 가장 양호한 두 모델(B2 및 R7)의 통계결과는 교차 확인값 $q^2({r^2}_{cv.}=0.529{\sim}0.755)$과 비교차 확인값$({r^2}_{ncv.}=0.937{\sim}0.945)$에 기초하여 가장 양호한 예측성을 보였다. 그리고 논피에 대한 모델(B2)의 예측성과 적합성이 벼에 대한 모델(R7) 보다도 통계적으로 양호하였다. 또한, 두 모델과 기여도로부터 정전기장과 hexahydroisoindol-1-one 고리상 S-phenyl 기의 ortho-위치에 있는 입체장이 두 초종 간 선택적인 제초활성에 미치는 중요한 요소이었다.

N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide 및 N-phenyl-2-thienylsulfonamide 유도체(1-34)들의 phenyl 및 theinyl 고리상치환기(R1-R5) 변화에 따른 모잘록병균(Pythium ultimum)의 살균활성에 관한 3차원적인 정량적 구조와 활성과의 관계(3D-QSARs)들을 비교 분자장 분석(CoMFA)과 비교분자 유사성 지수분석(CoMSIA) 방법으로 각각 검토하였다. 전반적으로 CoMSIA 모델들의 통계값은 atom based fit 정렬보다는 field fit 정렬시에 높은 값을 나타내었으나 CoMFA모델의 경우에는 차이가 없었다. 그리고 CoMSIA (FF1) 모델($r_{cv.}^2\;(q^2)=0.674$ 및 $r_{ncv.}^2=0.964$)이 CoMFA (AF5) 모델($r_{cv.}^2\;(q^2)=0.616$ 및 $r_{ncv.}^2=0.930$)보다 상관성과 예측성이 양호하였다. CoMSIA (FF1) 모델의 정보에 따라 살균활성은 분자의 정전기장과 소수성장에 의존적이었다. 또한, CoMSIA (FF3) 모델의 등고도 분석 결과로부터 N-phenyl 고리상 R4-치환기의 친수성과 수소결합 받게로서의 성질인 모잘록병균의 살균활성에 기여할 것으로 예상되었다.
