The process parameter in optimized KOH alkali activation of soft carbon series coke material in high purity was set with DOE experiments design. The activated carbon was produced by performing the activation process based on the set process parameters. The specific surface area was measured and pore size was analyzed by $N_2$ absorption method for the produced activated carbon. The surface functional group was analyzed by Boehm method and metal impurities were analyzed by XRF method. The specific surface area was increased over 2,000 $m^2/g$ as the mixing ratio of activation agent increased. The micro pores in $5{\sim}15{\AA}$ and surface functional group under 0.4 meq/g were obtained. The contents of the metal impurity in activated carbon which is the factor for reducing the electrochemical characteristics was reduced less than 100 ppm through the cleansing process optimization. The electrochemical characteristics of activated carbon in 38.5 F/g and 26.6 F/cc were checked through the impedance measuring with cyclic voltammetry scan rate in 50~300 mV/s and frequency in 10 mHz ~100 kHz. The activated carbon was made in the optimized activation process conditions of activation time in 40 minutes, mixing ratio of activation agent in 4.5 : 1.0 and heat treatment temperature over $650^{\circ}C$.

The cardiac activation process uslng three dimensional ventricular model is simulated. To study this theme, we constructed a cardiac ventricular model and simulated the cardiac activation process using the action potential duration and the activation time. The cardiac ventricular model is generated by the loglcal combination of the elliptic equations. The action potential duration could be obtained from the fact that It Is linearly distributed between model cells. The cardiac activation process was simulated by the law of "all-or-none". Based on the activation time and the action potential duration the cardiac potential at the arbitrary time after the activation of the model cell was computed. To test the validity of model, the comparison of the results of model simulation with the physiological data was performed. In conclusion, this model shows the simular results which is comparable to the 1 Pal conduction of the cardlac excitation.xcitation.

This paper describes the construction of an anisotropic three dimensional ventricular model based on the bidomain model. The cardiac activation process in the normal cardiac cell and the myocardial ischemic cell are simulated by the Huygen's principle. The depolarization process in the myocardial ischemia displays the delayed activation compared to the normal state. The repolarization process is simulated by the myocardial potential at the arbitrary ellapsed time after activation process. Using the potential data, the equivalent cardiac source at the arbitrary time can be computed. In conclusion, this simulation suggests the possibilities of the depolarization and the repolarization process in the normal and abnormal myocardiac cells.

고분자 전해질막 연료전지의 대량 생산을 위하여 막-전극 접합체(MEA) 활성화 방법의 개발이 중요한 현안이다. 현재 개발된 MEA활성화 방법은 시간이 많이 소요됨으로 인해 수소의 사용량 또한 증가하여 연료전지의 상용화에 큰 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 통상적인 활성화 방법은 활성화 원리를 주로 전해질 수화 관점에서 이해하였다. 반면, 본 논문에서 제안된 순환전압전류(cyclic voltammetry, CV) 활성화 방법은 전해질 및 촉매적 관점에서 별도로 분리하여 이해하였다. 따라서 전해질 관점에서는 상대 습도 100%인 가습된 질소를 공급하여 전극 및 막의 전해질을 수화시키는 과정으로 구성되고, 촉매적 관점에서는 CV 사이클을 수행하여 백금 촉매에 흡착되어 있는 불필요한 오염물질, 또는 산화피막을 제거하는 과정으로 수행된다. CV 활성화법은 2.5 h 내에 활성화가 종료되어 활성화 시간을 크게 단축시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 수소 사용량도 기존 활성화 방법에 비하여 1/4 이하로 감소시킬 수 있어서 효과적인 연료전지 활성화 방법으로 제안하고자 한다.

Naphtha cracking bottom oil was reformed with heat treatment and then spun at $310^{\circ}C$. These pitch-based carbon fibers were carbonized at $1000^{\circ}C$ after oxidation at $280^{\circ}C$, for 90 min. These fibers were chemically activated with molar ratio of KOH/CF (1 : 1) at different temperatures ($250{\sim}900^{\circ}C$) for 1 hr. The process of activation was characterized with DTA, TGA, BET surface area and pore size distribution. The activation of fibers by KOH was performed by several process. One is the reduction process that carbon fiber was reacted with $K_2O$ produced from dehydration process above $400^{\circ}C$. The other is the process that $K_2CO_3$ was directly reacted with carbon fiber. At $800^{\circ}C$, the activation was performed by catalyzed mechanism that $K_2O$ was obtained from the reaction of metal potassium with $CO_2$, then was changed to $K_2CO_3$. At $870^{\circ}C$, the activation was also observed that activation mechanism was promoted by metal catalyst with $CO_2$ from decomposition of $K_2CO_3$. The specific surface area of prepared activated carbon fibers was dependent on the activation mechanism. The specific surface area was in the range of $1519{\sim}2000\;cm^3/g$ and was the largest prepared at $870^{\circ}C$. The pores developed were mostly micropores which was very narrow and uniform. The total pore volume was $0.58{\sim}0.77\;cm^3/g$.

In this study, new evaluation method for the stability and corrosion resistance properties of passive films has been suggested by means of observation of self-activation process in open-circuit state and galvanostatic nanoscale reduction test. The experiments were performed for air-formed oxide film in case of plain carbon steel, and for anodically passivated films formed in aqueous sulfuric acid solutions in case of titanium and 304 stainless steel. From these experimental results, we derived two parameters, $i_{0}$ and $q_{0}$, which characterize the self-activation process and the properties of passive film on a stainless steel surface. The parameter $i_{0}$ was defined as the rate of self-activation, and $q_{0}$, the reduced amount of charge during the self-activation process. In conclusion, it is considered that the stability and corrosion resistance of passive metals and alloys can be evaluated quantitatively by three parameters of $\tau_{0}$, $q_{0}$, and $i_{0}$, which easily obtain by means of observing the self-activation process and galvanostatic nanoscale reduction test.

For commercialization of fuel cell electric vehicles, one of the key objectives is to reduce cost of full stack assembly. Regarding Membrane Electrode Assembly, the major issue is to improve fuel cell activation process in the initial Hydrogen Oxidation Reaction and Oxygen Reduction Reaction. In this research, the VD (Vacuum Drying) process has been developed for improvement of activation process. The VD condition is developed by controlling the temperature and degree of vacuum to remove the remaining solvent of electrode. Consequently, the electrode applied to VD process showed the low characteristics such as 3.5% of remaining solvent content and the improved efficiency such as 15% of activation process speed.

Effect of activation energy and crystallization kinetics of polyethylenes (PEs) on the dynamics and stability has been investigated by changing rheological properties and crystallization rate in film casting process. The effect of changes of these properties has been shown using a typical example of short-chain branching (SCB) in linear polyethylenes. SCBs in linear polymers generally lead to the increase of the flow activation energy, and to the decrease of the crystallization rate, making polymer viscosity lower in the case of equivalent molecular weight. In general, the increment of the crystallinity of polymers under partially crystallized state helps to enhance the process stability by increasing tension, and lower fluid viscoelasticity possesses the stabilizing effect for linear polymers. It has been found that the fluid viscoelasticity plays a key role in the control of process stability than crystallization kinetics which critically depends on the cooling to stabilize the film casting process of short-chain branched polymers operated under the low aspect ratio condition.
