In this study, we collected data used to formulate the relationship between quantitative metrological parameters in CRT display and the perceived focus quality. Human perception of the focusing quality was evaluated in terms of user feedback scores regarding the character legibility from four highly trained inspectors. Thirteen CRT monitors from five different manufacturers were compared relatively with respect to the norm monitor. The profile of electron beam such as spot size and the shape of distribution made by electron beam, contrast, convergence of RGB beams, and luminance characteristics were measured using a precision measurement system. Linear regression analysis and artificial neural network models were used to formulate the relationship between human perception and the quantitative measurements. The accuracy of the formulated linear regression model ($R^2$=0.515) was not satisfactory but the nonlinear neural network model ($R^2$=0.716) was fairly convincing and robust even the utilized data included subjective differences.

c-Jun N-terminal kinase-3 (JNK3) is a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family (MAPK), and plays an important role in neurological disorders. Therefore, identification of selective JNK3 inhibitor may contribute towards neuroprotection therapies. In this work, we performed hologram quantitative structure-activity relationship (HQSAR) on a series of thiophene trisubstituted derivatives. The best predictions were obtained for HQSAR model with $q^2=0.628$ and $r^2=0.986$. Statistical parameters from the generated QSAR models indicated the data is well fitted and have high predictive ability. HQSAR result showed that atom, bond and chirality descriptors play an important role in JNK3 activity and also shows that electronegative groups is highly favourble to enhance the biological activity. Our results could be useful to design novel and selective JNK3 inhibitors.

In the past a few decades, various kinds of cells have been examined in laboratories all over the world, and their interesting results have been expressed through various methods in journal publications. For a representative example, the increment or reduction of cell numbers during a bio-related experimental process has been demonstrated using the hazard ratio in survival analysis or in the form of a graph. In addition, the condition of cells such as their normality or abnormality would be indicated by the images of the cell nuclei or membranes treated with proper fluorescent labeling. However, the above methods seem to not be quantitative but rather qualitative assessments, which might be difficult to provide people with the eidetic understanding through parameters or numerical data. With adequate suggestions on any indices enabling the explanation for cell conditions, some analyses may be underestimated due to the lack of objectiveness caused by merely linguistic evaluation for the cell conditions, not numerally scientific interpretation. Therefore, in this study, we would suggest some indices enabling quantitative analysis on the cellular conditions.

In this paper, the Superconductor flywheel energy storage system (SFESS) was used for the load frequency control (LFC) of an interconnected 2 area power system. The robust SFESS controller using quantitative feedback theory (QFT) was designed to improve control performance in spite of parameter uncertainty and unexpected disturbances. An overlapping decomposition method was applied to simplify SFESS controller design for the interconnected 2 area power system. The model for simulation of the interconnected 2 area power system included the reheat steam turbine, governor, boiler dynamics and nonlinearity such as governor deadband and generation rate constraint (GRC). To verify robust performance of proposed SFESS controller, dynamic simulation was performed under various disturbances and parameters variation of power system. The results showed that the proposed SFESS controller was more robust than the conventional method.

Dynamic motion difference between normal subjects and low-back pain (LBP) patients has been investigated in terms of kinematic variables such as range of motion, velocity and acceleration of the back and hip. Ten healthy subjects and ten LBP patients were recruited in this study. Electro-goniometer such as Lumbar Motion Monitor and Hip Monitor have been used for quantitative measurement of the trunk motion during repetitive flexion and extension for ten seconds. Results indicated that the velocity and acceleration of the back and hip were important parameters to quantitatively identify LBP patients. The consistency of cyclic trunk motion and the relationship between the back and hip were measured in terms of Variance Ratio and Phase Angle in order to accurately assess the motion characteristics of LBP patients. In particular, the hip motion has been proven to be a very important factor in describing the kinematics of damaged lower back. The functional evaluation technique suggested in this study will be a tool to assist physicians for an accurate diagnosis and timely rehabilitation along with current image diagnosis techniques.

In this study, quantitative sensitivity analysis on rockfill material influencing the dam crest displacement of Concrete-Faced Rockfill Dam(CFRD) subjected to earthquake loading was carried out. The purpose of this study is to indicate the most important input parameter and to show the quantitative variation of displacement at the crest of CFR type dam during earthquake loading with this input parameter. From the sensitivity analysis, it was found that the crest displacement of CFR type dam subjected to dynamic loading was absolutely affected by the shear modulus of rockfill material and the effect of friction angle of it was negligible. This relative difference of sensitivity was more outstanding in case of crest settlement than in case of crest horizontal displacement. Also, it was found that the extent of effect of shear modulus on the displacement at the crest of CFRD due to dynamic loading decreased as maximum amplitude of input acceleration increased.

An assessment of the subtalar joint in cerebral palsies can contribute to predict the function of ambulation in CP children. Ambulation is one of the most important function to guarantee the CP children independent life. This paper is to investigate some relationships between the function of standing and walling and the assessment of the subtalar joint in children with Cerebral palsy. And also to present the correlation between the ambulation and the Gross Motor Function Measures in children with cerebral palsy. Sixty-eight children with cerebral palsy were participated in this study. Evaluations of the subtalar pint parameters were performed by the goniometer and the angle finder, and the GMFM scores were measured by their teacher and researcher trained technically. A regression analysis was applied to figure out the relationship between the subtalar pint parameters(ROM and RCSP) and the function of standing and walking. A correlation analysis was employed to see how much the subtalar pint parameters could be predicted from GMFM scores in walling and standing. The results were as follows: 1) The significant differences were not observed between the total ROM, RCSP and the function of standing(F=8.065, p<.001) and walking(F=6.511, p<.001) in CP children. 2) The subtalar pint parameters(total ROM, RCSP) have the lower relevance to the function of standing and walling in CP children.(p>.05) 3) The total ROM and RCSP in both feet have the significant differences between the CP children and the normal children.(p<.001) 4) The GMFM scores were significantly correlated with the function of walling and standing in CP children.(r=247, p<.05) In this research, it is found that the significant relevance between the quantitative analysis of subtalar pint in children with cerebral palsy and the gross motor function of ambulation in standing and walling. However, it is difficult to predict the direct relationship of subtalar pint parameters and the function of ambulation, because subtalar pint scores and GMFM are only measured as quantities not qualities. Therefore, it is more reasonable to investigate the influence of subtalar pint parameters on ambulation in children with cerebral palsies, adding to the multifocal assessment of the children, rather than vice versa.

This paper summarizes the results of a study which uses the recently developed Optical Profile Microscopy technique (Dove and Frost, 1996) as the basis for investigating the role of geomembrane surface roughness on the shear mechanism of geomembrane/geotextile interfaces. The alternative roughness parameters which consider the direction of shearing are described. These directional parameters are compared with the existing roughness parameters, and the relationship between these directional and non-directional parameters are investigated. Then, the relationship between interface shear strength and surface roughness quantified at the interface is investigated. The results show that interface friction can be quantitatively related to the surface roughness of the geomembrane. The peak and residual interface strengths increase dramatically through the use of textured geomembranes as opposed to smooth geomembranes. For the smooth geomembranes, the sliding of the geotextile is the main shear mechanism. For the textured geomembranes, the peak interface strength is mainly mobilized through the micro-texture of the geomembrane, however, the residual interface strength is primarily attributed to macro scale surface roughness which pulls out and breaks the filaments from the geotextile. The results of this study can be extended to the other interfaces such as joints in rock mass, and also can be used to provide a quantitative framework that can lead to a significantly improved basis for the selection and design of geotextiles and geomembranes in direct contact.

Quantitative strucrure-activity relationships between the toxicity (LD$\_$50/) and molecular properties of amine and nitro compounds were tested. The all 19 compounds showed low correlations below 0.500 to their LD$\_$50/ values. When amine or nitro compounds were taken separately, the correlation between the calculated chemphysico parameters and LD$\_$50/ were also poor (r$^2$=0.4911, 3967 repectively). The overall relationships among the QSAR parameters were investigated. Molecular weight shows a high correlation with total surface area (r$^2$=0.9287); 0.9090 for zero-order connectivity and second-order connectivity : 0.8784 for bioconcentration factor and second-order connectivity. When amine compounds were taken to perform the statistical treatment, the relationships between parameters were as follows: 0.8436 for volume-negentropy; 0.8925 for volume-bioconcentration factor; 0.9929 for zero-order connectivity-Kow; zero-order connectivity-bioconcentration factor; 0.9141 for zero-order connectivity-solubility; 0.9718 for solubility-bioconcentration factor; 0.9894 for solubility-bioconcentration factor and 0.9319 for Kow-bioconcentration factor. On the other hand, nitro compounds showed different relationships as follows: 0.8952 for volume-I/O character; 0.9520 for volume-total surface area: 0.9351 for volume-molecular weight; 0.9351 for volume-MW; 0.9961 for Kow-Koc; 0.8455 for Kow-bioconcentration factor; 0.8879 for Koc-bioconcentration factor; 0.9987 for MW-total surface area respectively.
