Under optimized condition mild pressure in combination with specific temperature for heat treatment transform the 6-gingerol into 6-shogaol. The purpose of this study was to optimize the conditions used for heat treatment under pressure for increasing 6-shogaol content in ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe). A central composite experimental design was used to evaluate the effects of application temperature ($70-130^{\circ}C$) and temperature-holding time (95-265 min) on the transformation of 6-shogaol. The experimental values were shown to be in significantly good agreement with the predicted values (adjusted determination coefficient, $R^2{_{Adj}}=0.9857$). 6-Shogaol content increased as the application temperature and temperature-holding time increased. By analyzing the response surface plots, the optimum conditions of heat treatment (temperature and time) for increasing 6-shogaol content were found to be $127^{\circ}C$ and 109 min, respectively. Under these optimal conditions, the predicted 6-shogaol content was 3.98 mg/g dried ginger. The adequacy of the model equation for predicting the optimum response values was effectively verified by the validation data.

Outdoor cultural buildings and their accessories receive different amounts of solar radiation depending on their location's latitude, azimuth, and tilt. Shading is also affected by the surrounding terrain and objects, necessitating individual and quantitative shading analysis. In July 2019, this study conducted a shading analysis on the tops, midpoints, and bottoms of wooden pillars in the azimuth of Cheongpunggak, a traditional building in South Korea's National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage. The shading analysis found that the solar access/shade predicted by the solar trajectory meter was 30 minutes slower than measured in the field. The highest solar access and solar radiation levels came from the south, followed by the west, east, and north. The pillars' bases received the highest solar access and solar radiation, followed by their midpoints and tops. Solar access was high at tilt 90°, but solar radiation was high at tilt 0°, due to the light-collection efficiency and the irradiance. Shading on the pillars' tops was caused by the roof eaves, while shading on the midpoints and bases were affected by the surrounding pillars, topography, and other objects. Simultaneous solar access at the tops, midpoints, and bottoms was possible for 365 days for the northwest, west, and southwest pillars but only from October to March for the south and southeast pillars.

Currently, the field of textile is expanding the scope of its research, which focuses on non-material values such as emotion. This study suggests possibilities for and applications of emotional textile design, using digital craft via empirical research focusing on the emotional significance of textile design. The results, obtained with a subjective evaluation scale developed for this study, were used to verify whether there is statistical significance in the differences between textile design using digital technology and textile design using digital craft. The experiment indicated certain meaningful implications for application of digital crafts through the application of textile design. First, ethnic emotions were not found to be significant but did increase in all three comparative analyses. Second, both modern and classical emotions decreased. Third, comparisons between digital textile machine and digital textile machine and craft showed a significant difference in sensibility. Lastly, the comparison of 3D printing and 3D printing and craft indicated a significant increase in elegance. Therefore, textile design using digital craft is thought to be able to deliver an ethnic, fun, and elegant sensibility, following the digital technology used. If the results derived from this study are used appropriately in the development and production of textile design, it can effectively support the development of emotional textile design. In addition, the results of this study provide objective data for the design of emotional textile through digital craft, which will provide important implications for the academic world and for practical production.

The research was conducted with the purpose of providing effective safety and quality control system for assistive products for handicapped those are used extensively. Assistive products couldn't be classified independently due to collision with the act of medical device and lack in legal basis. The issues about safety and quality have been solved by other legal frames on a case by case basis. We couldn't find any abroad case of independent safety and quality control policy. For the practical solution, this article suggested hybrid classification system mixed with existing policies. Each classified branches are allocated to the appropriate policy of safety and quality control so those are ease of understanding and prospect. And also a delicacy process was suggested not to leave off any assistive products. Through these suggests of the improvement it is expected that blind areas of safety and quality control for assistive products for handicapped could be solved and identity of assistive products could be established to provide product safety for handicapped and boost relevant industries.

The COVID-19 virus is a β-genus virus that causes infection by mediating the angiotensin convertible enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, which is distributed in large numbers in the human respiratory tract. The disease requires effective post-management of antibody production by complete healers and vaccinators because there is no perfect remedy for the virus infection. This study aimed to develop recombinant proteins specifically responsive to neutralizing antibodies in clinical specimens and use them to develop a rapid diagnostic kit to diagnose neutralizing antibodies quickly and conveniently against the COVID-19 virus and confirm the possibility of commercialization through a performance evaluation. Rapid diagnostic kits using COVID-19 S1 RBD recombinant proteins can be applied to rapid diagnostic kits, with positive percentage agreement (PPA) and negative percentage agreement (NPA) of 100% and 98.3%, respectively, compared to the U.S. FDA-approved ELISA kits. If the performance of the rapid diagnostic kit is improved and neutralizing antibodies can be analyzed quantitatively using quantitative analysis equipment, it can be used as important data to predict immunity to the COVID-19 virus and determine additional vaccinations.

Ground Component Command (GCC) has been developing operational planning and execution systems to implement "Decisive Integrated Operations", which is the concept of ground operations execution, and achieved remarkable results. In particular, "Simultaneous Offense-Defense Integrated Operations" is developed mainly to neutralize enemies in deep areas and develop favorable conditions for the allies early by simultaneously attacking and defending from the beginning of the war. On the other hand, it is limited to providing scientific and reasonable support for the commander's decision-making process because analyzing the effects of the deep operation with existing M&S systems is impossible. This study developed a model for analyzing the effects of deep operations that can be used in the KJCCS. Previous research was conducted on the effects of surveillance, physical strike, and non-physical strike, which are components of deep operations to find the characteristics and limitations and suggest a research direction. A methodology for analyzing the effects of deep operations reflecting the interactions of components using data was then developed by the GCC, and input data for each field was calculated through combat experiments and a literature review. Finally, the Deep operations Effect CAlculating Model(DECAM) was developed and distributed to the GCC and Corps battle staff during the ROK-US Combined Exercise. Through this study, the effectiveness of the methodology and the developed model were confirmed and contribute to the development of the GCC and Corps' abilities to perform deep operations.

Air pollution caused by particulate matters (PM) has become a global issue. PM is known to threaten human health by causing respiratory and cardiovascular disease. PM can be introduced to human gastrointestinal track through food intake, causing inflammation and changes in gut microbiota. Even at low PM concentrations, prolonged exposure to PM can cause significant accumulation of PM in food products. The adsorption of PM onto food surfaces is expected to be strongly influenced by the properties of food surfaces, but few studies have been reported. This paper examines several important food surface properties that may affect the interactions between PM and food surfaces, including surface wettability, surface charge, and surface microstructure. Understanding the adsorption of PM onto food surfaces can provide useful guidance for classifying PM-sensitive foods and controlling food chains, including cultivation, processing, preservation, and cooking, to ensure food safety against PM.

In the future, artificial intelligence (AI) technology is expected to become a general-purpose technology (GPT), and it is predicted that AI competency will become an essential competency. Several nations around the world are fostering experts in the field of AI to achieve technological proficiency while working to develop the necessary infrastructure and educational environment. In this study, we investigated the status of software education at the liberal arts level at 31 universities in Seoul, along with precedents from domestic and foreign AI education research. Based on this, we concluded that an AI literacy education model is needed to link software education at the liberal arts level with professional AI education. And we classified 20 AI-related lectures released in the KOCW according to the AI literacy competencies required; based on the results of this classification, we propose a model for AI literacy education in the liberal arts for undergraduate students. The proposed AI literacy education model may be considered as AI·SW convergence to experience AI along with literacy in the humanities, deviating from the existing theoretical and computer-science-based approach. We expect that our proposed AI literacy education model can contribute to the proliferation of AI.

Previous studies for the assessment of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) were perfomed for areas where a large amount of SGD was observed. Newly developed assessment methods were proposed that was based on an analytic solution using sharp interface model. The proposed mathematical equations used the existing observed groundwater level and hydrogeological data of Jeju Island as input data. The quantitatively assessed FSGD values were compared to the basin-scale recharge estimation values in Seong-San area in eastern Jeju. As a result of the study, it was estimated that the amount of FSGD in the Seongsan area ranges from about 2.65 to 9.15% of the amount of areal-recharge. Through the analysis of the FSGD combined with the analytic model, it is to be provided as a scientific tool to establish a more reasonable coastal water resource management plan.
