Citation frequency is an important factor in evaluating journal quality and is used as a measure of journal impact. The citation index of a paper plays an important role in linking papers with groups of other academic papers, forming a huge and complex network. This study examines the intellectual structure of apparel research through the bibliometric citation analysis of The Research Journal of the Costume Culture (RJCC). In order to analyze the changes in the intellectual structure of the RJCC, we used the Korea Citation Index's (KCI) data (highly citing journals and highly cited journals). The NodeXL, a social network analysis tool, was used to examine the connection structure between journals. In order to identify the academic influence of the RJCC, we used the KCI journal citation index. Our findings indicate that the RJCC has a high centrality index among the clothing-oriented journals in the same life sciences field. A look at the journals citing the RJCC and the journals cited within the RJCC also showed that more journals of diverse fields have been recently linked through their citations. This suggests that a convergence of interdisciplinary research is underway in the field of clothing. As a result of examining international journals cited in the RJCC, it was confirmed that they were cited in prominent international journals in various fields.

This study was planned to prepare the high strength hydrogel ophthalmic lens containing isocyanate group and nanoparticles. HDI with carbon nanoparticles were used as additives for the basic combination of HEMA, MA and MMA, and the materials were copolymerized with EGDMA as the cross-linking agent and AIBN as the initiator. The mixture was heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for an hour to produce the high performance hydrogel ophthalmic lens by cast mold method. Measurement of the physical characteristics of the produced material showed that the refractive index was in the range of 1.4027~1.4600, water content 25.21~44.01%, contact angle $54.18{\sim}72.94^{\circ}$, visible light transmittance 53.03~92.09%, and tensile strength 0.1024~0.2359 kgf and breaking strength was 0.0872~0.2825 kgf. The results showed an increase of refractive index while the decrease in water content. And also, the breaking strength was highest when the addition ratio of HDI was 5%(wt). As a result of the absorbance measurement, no significant difference was observed in all the samples, so it can be judged that the stabilization of nanoparticles in the polymer was maintained.

This study aims to identify the efficiency by applying diverse index to the positions of vertex in the network among the network analysis methods in order to identify the relational location features of caves. The first consideration was about the relational location features according to the linking degree and centrality of cave. The second consideration was about the structural equivalence between caves or between caves and the surrounding tourists attractions. A variety of index examined in this study is very efficient for identifying the positions of caves in the network. Furthermore, the relational location features in consideration of surrounding tourists attractions identified the availability of more objective and quantitative expression. In particular, when there are other caves around a cave, it is also very useful to identify the structural equivalence or comparison with other caves.

This paper investigates the issue of performance testing on web browsing environments. Among the typical non-functional characteristics, index of link validity will be deeply explored. A framework to certify link correctness in web site is proposed. All possible navigation paths are first formulated to represent a usage model with the Markov chain property, which is then used to generate test script file statistically. With collecting any existing failure information followed by tracing these testing browsed paths, certification analysis may be performed by applying Markov chain theory. The certification result will yield some significant information such as: test coverage, reliability measure, confidence interval, etc. The proposed mechanism may provide not only completed but also systemic methodologies to find any linking errors and other web technologies errors. Besides, an actual practice of the proposed approach to a web-based system will be demonstrated quantitatively through a certification tool.

The z-transform method is a basic mathematical tool in analyzing and designing sampled-data control systems. However, since the z-transform method relates only the sampling-instants signals, another mathematical tool is necessary to describe the continous signals between the sampling instants. For this purpose the delayed and the modi fled z-transform methods were developed. The definition of the modi fled z-transform includes a sample in the interval [-T,0] of the original signal in its series expression, where the signal value is always zero for any physical system. From this reason one step skew of the time index always appears in its application formulas. This introduces an unnecessary operation and a gap in linking the mathematical formula and its physical interpretation. Considering the conceptual difficulty and application inconvenience, a method of using the advanced z-transform in analysis of sampled-data control systems is developed as a replacement of the modi fled z-transform. With one formulation of the advanced z-transform, now it is possible to relate both the signals of the sampling instants and those in between without any complication and conceptual difficulty.

Background: The understanding of ecosystem services can be quantified and qualitative to assess the impacts of changes in the ecosystem to support human well-being. In the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, sustainable use of ecosystem services has attracted the interest of a range of decision-makers. However, although there is a concern for biodiversity, natural ecosystem, and their services, linking ecosystems with conservation planning remains challenging. Results: This study assessed the first qualitative ecosystem services provided by the Mundok wetland with decision makers of the West/Yellow Sea region. Furthermore, this study applied the Rapid Assessment Wetland Ecosystem method to support natural resources management, improving living conditions. We identified that cultural and supporting services index are highly provided, but preparing a plan to increase the provisioning and regulating services in Mundok wetland is necessary. Conclusions: The assessment results can provide helpful information for ecosystem services assessment, habitat conservation, conservation planning, and decision-making at local level.

The maximum drying shrinkage velocity was proposed to verify bulk and stiffness improvement mechanism during drying according to papermaking parameters. It was based on the wet-web shrinkage behavior without the restraint of wet-web during drying, so intact drying impact could be measured. Bulking agent reduced the drying shrinkage and the maximum drying shrinkage velocity, so paper bulk increased and paper strength decreased. When adding cationic starch to stock with the bulking agent for strengthening, the bulk was increased further with additional decreasing of the drying shrinkage and the maximum drying shrinkage velocity. Paper strength also increased except tensile stiffness index with decreasing the drying shrinkage and the maximum drying shrinkage velocity. When using additional strength additives for strengthening of fiber interfaces extended by bulking agent and cationic starch, amphoteric strength additive increased paper stiffness without loss of paper bulk. It was considered that the added amphoteric strength additives were cross-linked to the stretched cationic starch and this cross-linking increased elasticity of fiber-polymer-fiber interfaces without changing the drying behavior. Paper bulk could be increased with decreasing the maximum drying shrinkage velocity. The drying shrinkage of paper also could be controlled by fiber-to-fiber bonding interfaces by the bulking agent. In this case, paper strength including stiffness was decreased by reducing fiber-to-fiber bonding but it could be improved by strengthening fiber-to-fiber interfaces with polymer complex without loss of bulk.
