  • This study proposes a novel islanding detection method for distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems with multi-inverters based on a combination of the power line carrier communication and Sandia frequency shift islanding detection methods. A parameter design method is provided for the novel scheme. On the basis of the designed parameters, the effect of frequency measurement errors and grid line impedance on the islanding detection performance of PV systems is analyzed. Experimental results show that the theoretical analysis is correct and that the novel method with the designed parameters has little effect on the power quality of the inverter output current. Non-detection zones are not observed, and a high degree of reliability is achieved. Moreover, the proposed islanding detection method is suitable for distributed PV systems with multi-inverters.

  • This study suggests the novel thermoplastic toughening agent, which can be applied in the monomer forms without increasing the viscosity of the epoxy resin and polymerized during the resin curing. The diazide (p-BAB) and dialkyne (SPB) compounds are synthesized and mixed with the epoxy resin and the carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites are prepared using vacuum infusion process (VIP). Then, flexural and drop weight tests are performed to evaluate the improvement in the toughness of the prepared composites to investigate the potential of the novel toughening agent. When 10 phr of p-BAB and SPB is added, the flexural properties are improved, maintaining the modulus as well as the toughness is improved. Even with a small amount of polytriazolesulfone polymerized, due to the filtering effect of the solid SPB by the layered carbon fabrics during the VIP, the toughening and strengthening effect were observed from the novel toughening agent, which could be added in monomer forms, p-BAB and SPB. This suggests that the novel toughening agent has a potential to be used for the composites prepared from viscosity sensitive process, such as resin transfer molding and VIP.

  • In this paper, we attempted to apply a novel engineering-based artificial intelligence education program to elementary gifted students in computing convergence and confirm changes in their convergence attitudes. To this end, we analyzed previous research on novel engineering and artificial intelligence education for talented students, and based on this, we selected books to learn artificial intelligence concepts and principles for each topic and completed a 15-session educational program. The developed program was applied to 10 giftedness in computing convergence over 15 lessons, and as a result of conducting the same convergence attitude test before and after class, it was confirmed that it had a positive effect on convergence attitude. This study is significant in that it suggests the possibility of novel engineering for artificial intelligence convergence education of gifted students.

  • The single-vessel multienzyme UDP-${\alpha}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucose recycling system was coupled with a forward glucosylation reaction to produce novel glucose moiety-conjugated derivatives of different tetracycline antibiotic analogs. Among five tetracycline analogs used for the reaction, four molecules (chlorotetracycline, doxytetracycline, meclotetracycline, and minotetracycline) were accepted by a glycosyltransferase enzyme, YjiC, from Bacillus licheniformis to produce glucoside derivatives. However, the enzyme was unable to conjugate sugar units to rolitetracycline. All glucosides of tetracycline derivatives were characterized by ultraviolet absorbance maxima, ultra-pressure liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array, and high-resolution quadruple time-of-flight electrospray mass spectrometry analyses. These synthesized glucosides are novel tetracycline derivatives.

  • 본 논문에서는 Novel Engineering(NE) 기반 메이커 교육이 우리나라 초등 교육과정의 성취기준을 달성하기에 적합한 방법인지를 분석하여 확인한다. NE는 공학과 문해력의 융합교육으로 책 속에서 문제 상황을 찾아 이를 해결하기 위해 공학적 산출물을 만드는 문제 해결 교육 방법이다. 국내에서는 초등학생을 대상으로 NE의 적용에 대한 연구가 점점 늘고 있으나, 교육과정 적합성과 관련된 연구는 매우 부족하다. 본 논문에서는 2015 개정 실과 및 국어 교육과정의 분석을 통하여 NE와 초등 교육과정 간의 연관성을 확인하였다.

  • In this work, we demonstrated a low noise and high linearity low noise amplifier (LNA) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) with novel active bias circuit for LTE applications. The device technology used in this work relies on a process involving a $0.25-{\mu}m$ GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (PHEMT). The LNA MMIC with a novel active bias circuit has a small signal gain of $19.7{\pm}1.5dB$ and output third order intercept point (OIP3) of 38-39 dBm in the frequency range 1.75-2.65 GHz. The noise figure (NF) is less than 0.58 dB over the full bandwidth. Compared with the characteristics of the LNA MMIC without using the novel active bias circuit, the OIP3 is improved about 2-3 dBm. The small signal gain and NF showed no significant change after using the active bias circuit. The novel active bias circuit indeed improves the linearity performance of the LNA MMIC without degradation.

  • The developments of double skin composite (DSC) walls with novel enhanced C-channel connectors (DSCW-EC) were reported. Followed axial compression tests on prototype walls were carried to evaluate structural performances of this novel DSC composite structures. The testing program consists of five specimens and focused on the layout of the novel enhanced C-channel (EC) connectors, which include the web direction of C-channels, steel-faceplate thickness, vertical and horizontal spacing of C-channels. Crushing in concrete core and buckling of steel faceplate were two main observed failed modes from the compression tests. However, elastic or plastic buckling of the steel faceplate varies with designed parameters in different specimens. The influences of those investigated parameters on axial compressive behaviors of DSCW-ECs were analyzed and discussed. Recommendations on the layout of novel EC connectors were then given based on these test results and discussions. This paper also developed analytical models for predictions on ultimate compressive resistance of DSCW-ECs. Validation against the reported test results show that the developed theoretical models predict well the ultimate compressive resistance of DSCW-ECs.

  • In this paper, a novel multiple description image coding (MDC) scheme is proposed, which is based on the characteristics of the human visual model. Due to the inherent characteristics of human vision, the human eye can only perceive the change of the specific thresholds, that is, the just noticeable difference (JND) thresholds. Therefore, JND model is applied to improve MDC syetem. This paper calculates the DCT coefficients firstly, and then they are compared with the JND thresholds. The data that is less than the JND thresholds can be neglected, which will improve the coding efficiency. Compared with other existing methods, the experimental results of the proposed method are superior.

  • A series of functionalized furans were synthesized by way of a palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of 2,3,5-trisubstituted furans with aryl chlorides through C-H bond cleavages at C-4 position. The feature of the reaction was facilitative preparation of furan derivatives with good functional group tolerance. All reactions gave the desired products in moderate to good yields in the presences of $BuAd_2P$ and t-BuOK in DMF at $120^{\circ}C$ after 15 h.
