Various problems such as increase of power loss and voltage instability may often occur in the case of low load power factor. The demand of reactive power increases continuously with the growth of active power and restructuring of electric power companies makes the comprehensive management of reactive power a troublesome problem, so that the systematic control of load power factor is required. In this paper, the load power factor sensitivity of generation cost is derived and it is used for effectively determining the locations of reactive power compensation devices and for enhancing the load power factor appropriately. In addition, voltage variation penalty cost is introduced and integrated costs including voltage variation penalty cost are used for determining the value of load power factor from the point of view of economic investment and voltage regulation. It is shown through application to a large-scale power system that the load power factor can be enhanced effectively using the load power factor sensitivity and the integrated cost.

The focus of this study is on the enhancement of flatness for the shielded slot plate, one of main components of the MCFC stack. The shielded slot plate is to get curvature during manufacturing process since it is produced by forming operation from only one side of it. Therefore, a correction die is proposed to place just after the main die to apply unbending on the curved plate to get almost flat product. In the design for the correction die, four kinds of design factors are selected to study which factor is the most influencing one affecting the flatness of the plate. From the experimental results using Taguchi method, it has been revealed that the Young's modulus of urethane die is the most critical factor.

본 논문에서는, drain 전압과 substrate bias에 종속적인 관계를 갖는 short-channel enhancement-mode IGFET의 threshold전압에 대한 보다 개선된 모델을 제시한다. 특히, 최근에 발표된 몇몇 모델들에 비해. short-channel effect에 의한 correction factor를 정확히 해석함으로써 오차를 충분히 줄일 수 있었으며, 본 모델을 이용하여 계산한 이론값은 약 1μm 정도의 채널 길이를 갖는 device에 대해서도 실험값과 잘 일치한다.

This article reviewed transport behaviours of electroactive species in ionic compounds, focusing on chemical diffusion of Li through the transition metal oxide in a current flowing condition. For this purpose, a distinction has been first briefly made between migration and diffusion with respect to current, driving force and charge of electroactive species considered. Then, the equations for chemical diffusion are derived theoretically in open-circuit and current flowing conditions. Finally, the experimental methods such as ac impedance spectroscopy and current (potential) transient techniques are described in details for characterising chemical diffusion. In addition, the role of the thermodynamic enhancement factor in chemical diffusion is discussed.

Microlens array (MLA) films have been used as brightness-enhancement components in many illumination systems, such as a backlight, which should meet the industrial needs of low cost and high brightness performance. A hexagonally-arranged MLA (HA-MLA) was chosen due to its high filling factor, which was a prerequisite for achieving high brightness-enhancement capability. The moir$\acute{e}$ fringes produced in a film stack composed of two HA-MLA were investigated, under four different lens configurations, by optical simulation. It was found that randomizing the lens configuration, while keeping the filling factor high, was effective way to develop high-gain MLA films for backlight applications.

Square lattice nano-hole arrays with diameters and periodicities of 200 and 500 nm, respectively, are fabricated on InGaN/GaN blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) using electron-beam lithography and inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching processes. Cathodoluminescence (CL) investigations show that light emission intensity from the LEDs with the nano-hole arrays is enhanced compared to that from the planar sample. The CL intensity enhancement factor decreases when the nano-holes penetrate into the multiple quantum wells (MQWs) due to the plasma-induced damage and the residues. Wet chemical treatment using KOH solution is found to be an effective method for light extraction from the nano-patterned LEDs, especially, when the nano-holes penetrate into the MQWs. About 4-fold CL intensity enhancement factor is achieved by the KOH treatments after the dry etching for the sample with a 250-nm deep nano-hole array.

This paper estimates the derailment factor of running train on the curved track. To estimate the derailment factor, wheel loads and lateral forces of train are measured on the track. The selected measuring points are the 400R and the 600R in the Honam line, the 300R and the 400R in the Janghang line, respectively. The derailment factors are evaluated from the wheel loads and lateral forces which are measured on the all axles of running trains.

This study investigates the effects of sociocultural influences and body image on appearance enhancement behaviors (facial management, clothing selection, and weight/figure management). For data collection, a questionnaire was administrated to 562 female college students in Gwangju City, Chonnam area and Chonbuk area, Korea, from May 23 to June 10, 2011. To analyze the data, a SPSS 18.0 statistics package was used, and descriptive statistical analysis, frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and regression analysis were conducted. The results were as follows. First, sociocultural influences were divided into three factors: parental influence, media influence, and peer influence. Overall sociocultural influences had positive effects on appearance enhancement behavior. Second, body image was divided into two factors: weight-concern and appearance-concern. Sociocultural influences had significant effects on overall body image. Third, body image appeared to have positive effects on overall appearance enhancement behavior.

The low load power factor causes various problems such as the increase of the power loss and the voltage instability. The demand of reactive power increases continuously with the growth of active power and the restructuring of electric power companies makes the integrated management of ractive power troublesome, from which the systematic control of load power factor is required. In this paper, the load power factor sensitivity of the generation cost is derived and its effects in supplying the reactive power and enhancing the load power factor are analyzed in a small-scale power system. The load power factor sensitivity of the generation cost is applied for determining the locations and capacities of reactive power compensation devices. It is shown that the generation cost can be reduced and the system power factor can be enhanced effectively using the load power factor sensitivity.
