Kang-ning Han,Wei Zhou,Reng Qin,Sa Yang,Lian-Hua Ma 한국섬유공학회 2021 Fibers and polymers Vol.22 No.2

Damage evolution of carbon fabric-reinforced polymer composite with various off-axis angles during theprogressive bending tests was monitored by acoustic emission and Micro-CT. Meanwhile, the acoustic emission signals canbe post-processed by k-means clustering methods. The results indicate that the maximum load and stiffness of laminatesdecrease with the increase of off-axis angle. Three key points (linear growth point, maximum load point and fail point) areselected to research the progressive damage. The existence of the Kaiser effect is observed. With the increase of off-axisangle, the damage degree and the load shared by the elastic-plastic matrix increase. The bending of matrix can enhance thefracture toughness and restrain the damage. The complementary technology can provide a basis for health monitoring ofCFRP laminates.

Ning, Xiao Feng,Li, He,Kang, Tae-Hwan,Han, Chung-Su Korean Society for Agricultural Machinery 2012 바이오시스템공학 Vol.37 No.3

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the storage and quality characteristics of brown rice under the low temperature warehouse conditions using ambient cold air in the winter. Methods: This new technique maintains rough rice warehouse temperature below $15^{\circ}C$ without cooling operation until the end of May. Four hundred tons of rough rice were stored in the low temperature grain warehouse, and were aerated from the top to the bottom using ambient cold air in February. The quality of rough rice was evaluated from February through October. Results: The results were as followings. Moisture contents of rough rice in the low temperature storage had decreased less than the ordinary temperature storage. Cracked rate of brown rice in the ordinary temperature storage and low temperature storage increased by 4~10.8% and 1.6~7.2%, respectively. The germination rate of rough rice under the ordinary and the low temperature warehouse decreased by 15.0~25.0% and 1.7~8.0%, respectively. The acid value of brown rice under the ordinary and the low temperature warehouse increased by 3.67~6.72 KOH mg/100g and 3.08~4.08 KOH mg/100g, respectively. Conclusions: The result indicates that low temperature storage using ambient winter air showed better maintaining germination of rice, less change of physiological activities and cracked kernel, and better maintaining of rice quality, comparing the ordinary temperature storage.

Ning, Xiao Feng,Kang, Tae-Hwan,Kim, Oui-Woung,Han, Chung-Su Korean Society for Agricultural Machinery 2012 바이오시스템공학 Vol.37 No.2

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the optimal sorting factors in establishing an efficient sorting technology for brown rice. Methods: The brown rice varieties used in this study were Il Pum, Chu Cheong, Dong Jin, Un Gwang, Nam Pyeong, and Dae An. These were classified into whole grain, unriped grain, and green dead rice. The shape factors were analyzed based on length, width and thickness of the grains. Results: The results revealed that the maximum length among whole grain, unriped grain, and green dead rice was observed in Dae An variety while Chu Cheong variety showed the minimum. Further more, Il Pum brown rice showed the maximum width while Dong Jin variety showed the minimum. In the case of thickness, the maximum was observed in Un Gwang variety and that of the minimum among Nam Pyeong variety for both whole grain and unriped grain. Conclusions: The length and width can be used as determinants in sorting factors of whole grain and green dead rice, and the thickness can be considered as optimum sorting factor of whole grain and unriped grain.

Kang, Nai-Min,Xiao, Ning,Sun, Xiao-Jun,Han, Yi,Luo, Bao-Jian,Liu, Zhi-Dong Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2013 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.14 No.6

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess prognosis after resection of giant tumors (including lobectomy or pneumonectomy) in the mediastinum. Materials and Methods: Patients with resection of a giant tumor in the mediastinum of the thoracic cavity received ICU treatment including dynamic monitoring of vital signs, arterial blood pressure and CVP detection, determination of hemorrhage, pulmonary function and blood gas assay, treatment of relevant complications, examination and treatment with fiber optic bronchoscopy, transfusion and hemostasis as well as postoperative removal of ventilators by invasive and non-invasive sequential mechanical ventilation technologies. Results: Six patients were rehabilitated successfully after ICU treatment with controlled postoperative errhysis and pulmonary infection by examination and treatment with fiber optic bronchoscopy without second application of ventilators and tubes after sequential mechanical ventilation technology. One patient died from multiple organ failure under ICU treatment due to postoperative active hemorrhage after second operative hemostasis. Conclusions: During peri-operative period of resection of giant tumor (including lobectomy or pneumonectomy) in mediastinum ofthe thoracic cavity, the ICU plays an important role in dynamic monitoring of vital signs, treatment of postoperative stress state, postoperative hemostasis and successful removal of ventilators after sequential mechanical ventilation.

Online monitoring of IGBT junction temperature based on V_ce measurement

Cao, Han,Ning, Puqi,Chai, Xiaoguang,Zheng, Dan,Kang, Yuhui,Wen, Xuhui The Korean Institute of Power Electronics 2021 JOURNAL OF POWER ELECTRONICS Vol.21 No.2

In this paper, an online junction temperature monitoring method based on the on-state voltage under high collector current density measurements for IGBT power modules is proposed. Unlike the conventional junction temperature monitoring method, the presented method can extract the junction temperature during operation without altering the modulation strategy or topology of the converter. The proposed method is verified by simulations and the JEDEC-51 standard recommended approach. To accurately extract the on-state voltage during operation, a measurement circuit that combines the advantages of both the active MOSFET clamp and the diode clamp is designed and tested. It has been shown to have good accuracy and a rapid response time. After the calibration results are obtained, the presented method is applied to a three-phase voltage source converter controlled by a closed-loop SVPWM modulation strategy.

마늘의 저온저장 후 2차 건조가 품질에 미치는 영향

마늘은 일반적으로 0~-4°C의 저온에서 저장하는 방법이 널리 이용되고 있으며, 저온저장 후 상온보관 시 마늘은 휴면이 일직 타파되고 생육이 촉진되어 품질이 떨어지게 된다. 그리고 저장온도가 낮고 상온과의 온도 차이로 마늘의 표면에 결로가 생기며, 이 결로로 인해 발생된 수분이 마늘의 미생물 생장을 촉진시켜 부패율 증가에 큰 원인이 되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 문제점에도 불구하고 저온저장 후 상온 유통 시 후처리에 대한 연구가 매우 미진한 상태이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 마늘의 저온저장 후 건조처리 방법에 따라 상온 보관성 향상 및 품질에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 적정 저장 및 2차 건조조건을 확립 제시하였다. 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 마늘의 중량감소율은 2차 건조조건에 따라 40°C 2일 건조조건에서 2.5~4.1%로 가장 크게 나타났다. 그러나 2차 건조 후 상온보관에 따른 마늘의 중량감소율은 40°C 2일 건조조건에서 5% 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 2차 건조 후 상온보관 기간에 따른 마늘의 맹아율은 상온보관 15일까지 20% 급속히 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 30일이후부터는 소폭 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 2차 건조조건에 따른 마늘의 맹아율은 건조하지 않은 조건에서 그 증가폭이 10% 정도 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 2차 건조조건 중 35°C 3일과 40°C 2일 건조조건에서의 맹아 생장이 가장 작은 것으로 나타났다. 저온저장 후 2차 건조조건에 따른 마늘의 부패율 변화는 저온저장 후 2차 건조하지 않은 조건에서 부패율이 5~10% 높았으며, 40°C 2일 건조조건에서의 부패율이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 저온저장 후 상온보관에 따른 마늘의 경도변화는 저온저장 후 2차 건조를 수행하지 않은 조건에서 그 변화 폭이 20~50 gf 크게 나타났고, 2차 건조 후 상온보관에 따른 마늘의 경도 감소는 35°C 2일과 40°C 2일 건조조건에서 작은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 마늘의 저온저장 후 상온보관 시 적정조건은 저온저장 직후 2차 건조를 하며, 2차 건조조건 중 40°C 2일 동안 건조하는 것이 마늘의 고품질 유지를 위해 바람직한 것으로 판단된다. The purpose of this study was to investigate secondary drying effects on garlic quality, and to define the optimal secondary drying conditions for garlic preservation. The secondary drying tests used garlic that was naturally dried once and stored at low temperature. After secondary drying, the garlic was stored in a warehouse at room temperature. Tests were performed at different low-temperature storage periods (60, 105, 150, 195, and 240 days), secondary drying temperatures (35 and 40°C), drying times (1, 2, 3 days), and room temperature storage periods (15, 30, and 45 days). The results were compared with a non-secondary drying condition control. In general, the 40°C-2 days dry conditions showed the lowest weight-loss rate (5%) and rotting rate during room temperature storage. The sprouting rate increased by 20% during the initial 15 day-room temperature storage, along with a small increase after 30 days of room temperature storage. Increases in drying temperature and the period of secondary drying conditions caused a decrease in firmness. In addition, the sprouting rate was 10% higher, and rotting rate 5∼10% higher, for the non-drying condition, compared to drying conditions. Based on our results, the 40°C-2 days drying condition is the optimal secondary drying condition for garlic storage.
