Abstract: There is provided a cooperative driving control method based on a vehicle security status. The cooperative driving method according to an embodiment includes: identifying a security status of a cooperative driving target vehicle; determining a cooperative driving strategy according to the identified security status; and controlling driving according to the determined cooperative driving strategy. Accordingly, cooperative driving may be performed or excluded based on a security status of a target vehicle, so that an accident may be prevented from being caused by cooperative driving with a problematic vehicle, and safety of a driver and an occupant may be guaranteed.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on a winding axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes a first active material portion coated with an active material layer and a first uncoated portion not coated with an active material layer along a winding direction. At least a part of the first uncoated portion is defined as an electrode tab by itself. The first uncoated portion includes a first portion adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly, a second portion adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly, and a third portion interposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first portion or the second portion has a smaller height than the third portion in the winding axis direction.

Abstract: A positive electrode active material may include a lithium layer doped with a first doping element and a transition metal layer doped with a second doping element. An I(003)/I(006) peak intensity ratio in X-ray diffraction measurement is equal to or less than 23.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on an axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes an uncoated portion at a long side end thereof and exposed out of the separator along a winding axis direction of the electrode assembly. A part of the uncoated portion is bent in a radial direction of the electrode assembly to form a bending surface region that includes overlapping layers of the uncoated portion, and in a partial region of the bending surface region, the number of stacked layers of the uncoated portion is 10 or more in the winding axis direction of the electrode assembly.

Abstract: An electrode assembly, a battery, a battery pack and a vehicle including the same are provided. In the electrode assembly, the uncoated portion of an electrode includes a segment region divided into a plurality of segments, and the segment region includes a plurality of segment groups separated by a group separation pitch along a winding direction. One end of the electrode assembly includes a plurality of segment alignments. In winding turns corresponding to the plurality of segment alignments, group separation pitches of segment groups disposed in a same winding turn are substantially identical, and separation pitches of the segment groups is greater in a winding turn of a region adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly than in a winding turn of a region adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly.

Abstract: A method for generating a heart model reflecting action potential duration restitution is provided, which can visually output the maximum slope of the correlation between a relaxation period and an action potential duration at every point included in a three-dimensional heart model.

Abstract: A method and system for operating a mobile device according to a rate of change of a touch area are provided. The system includes a touch screen for creating a touch event according to a touch and a controller. The controller detects the rate of change of the touch area, according to information of a location where the touch event occurred and the occurrence of the touch event. The controller performs a function linked to the touch event detected location, by varying a property of the function according to the rate of change of the touch area.
