The objective of this work was to investigate the gas permeation properties of CO₂ and CH₄ for PEBAX^®/TS-530 hybrid membranes and compare with pure PEBAX^®-1657 membrane. With FTIR and XRD it was possible to confirm that TS-530 was dispersed well in PEBAX^® matrix. Compared with pure PEBAX^® membrane, ideal separation factor for PEBAX^®/TS-530 (10 wt%) hybrid membrane was enhanced a little. As the amount of TS-530 was increased, the gas permeability coefficients of both CO₂ and CH₄ were increased, while the ideal separation factor was decreased. This results were explained by the reduction of crystallinity of polyamide block and interchain distance caused by introduction of inorganic nanoparticles. And fumed silica might tend to agglomerate, resulting in forming nonselective nanogaps in the hybrid materials, thus the diffusivity would be enhanced at the expense of diffusivity selectivity.

This paper addresses the analysis and design of fuzzy control systems for a class of complex single input single output nonlinear systems. Firstly, the nonlinear system is represented by well-known Takagai-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model and the global controller is constructed by compensating each linear model in the rule of TS fuzzy model. The design of conventional TS fuzzy-model-based controller usually is composed of two processes. One is to determine static state feedback gain of each local model and the other is to validate the stability of the designed fuzzy controller. In this paper, we propose an alternative of the design of TS fuzzy-model-based controller. The design scheme is based on the extension of conventional optimal control theory to the design of TS fuzzy-model-based controller. By using the proposed method the design and stability analysis of the TS fuzzy model-based controller is reduced to the problem of finding the solution of a set of algebraic Riccati equations. And we use the recently developed interior point method to find the solution of AREs, where AREs are recast as the LMI formulation. One simulation example is given to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed fuzzy controller design method.

Si(100) surfaces were exposed to gas-phase thermal-energy hydrogen atoms, H(g). We find that thermal H(g) atoms etch, amorphize, or penetrate into the crystalline silicon substrate, depending on the employed Ts range during the H(g) exposure. We find that etching is enhanced as Ts is lowered in the 300-700K range, while amorphous silicon hydride (a-Si:H) formation dominates at a Ts below 300K. This result was well explained by the fact that formation of the etching precursor, SiHx(a), and amorphization are both facilitated by a lower Ts, whereas the final step for etching, SiH3(a) + H(g) longrightarrow SiH3(g), is suppressed at a lower Ts. we also find that direct absorption of H(g) by the crystalline bulk of Si(100) substrate occurs within a narrow Ts window of 420-530K. The bulk-absorbed hydrogen evolved out molecularly from Si(100) at a Ts 80-120K higher than that for surface monohydride phase ($\beta$1) in temperature-programmed desorption. This bulk-phase H uptake increased with increasing H(g) exposure without saturation within our experimental limits. Direct absorption of H(g) into the bulk lattice occurs only when the surface is atomically roughened by surface etching. While pre-adsorbed hydrogen atoms on the surface, H(a), were readily abstracted and replaced by D(g), the H atoms previously absorbed in the crystalline bulk were also nearly all depleted, albeit at a much lower rate, by a subsequent D(g) at the peak temperature in TPD from the substrate sequentially treated with H(g) and D(g), together with a gas phase-like H2 Raman frequency of 4160cm-1, will be presented.

The study was designed to evaluate the seasonal influences on cross-bred cow milk composition and paneer yield in Dhauladhar mountain range of sub-himalayan region. Fifty samples from each season were collected from a herd of $Jersey{\times}Red\;Sindhi{\times}Local$ cross-bred cows during summer (April-June), rainy (July-September) and winter (November-February) and analyzed for fat, total solids (TS) and solids not fat (SNF). Paneer was prepared by curdling milk at $85{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ with 2.5 per cent citric acid solution. Overall mean for fat, TS and SNF content of milk and paneer yield were 4.528, 13.310, 8.754 and 15.218 per cent respectively. SNF and TS content varied among seasons being highest in winter (8.983% and 13.639%) followed by summer (8.835% and 13.403%) and lowest in rainy season (8.444% and 12.888%). Paneer yield was lowest (14.792%) in rainy season and highest (15.501%) in winter season.

This paper proposes a QoS/QoE guaranteeing scheme by reassembling packets that have already been delivered to the end systems under the condition that there is no other way to fulfill user's QoS/QoE with the current network conditions. The proposed scheme is a QoS/QoE provisioning scheme that can be applied when IPTV streaming packets have not been consecutively received by the receiver. The receiving end system modifies the continuous counter field in the MPEG-2 Transport Stream and reassembles packets based on this information. In the simulation, broadcasting streaming environment has been implemented in order to verity the QoS/QoE performance of the proposed scheme under the good and poor network conditions.

Objectives: This was to examine and explore the elements of Size Korea 6th 3D head anthropometric database and to provide basic information for the selection of respirators in Korea. Methods: This was a pilot study for the first year of work in a two-year-project initiated at KOSHA in 2021. 3D head dimensions data were obtained from the Size Korea Center managing the Size Korea 6th 3D national anthropometry survey databases. The 3D head dimensions data, including 45 dimensions, were used in line with ISO standards (e.g., ISO/TS 16976-2) for examinations, comparisons, statistical analyses, etc. Results: A total of 3,088 subjects were finally determined in this study. The main features were: Male subjects were 52.5%; the highest age group was 15-29 at 36.7%; unhealthy weight group based on BMI was 31.7%; and survey area was the capital region. For the 6th 3D head dimensions data with 45 items, the means and standard deviations for 'Face length' were 115.9±7.5 cm for males and 107.3±6.9 cm for females respectively while those for 'Face width' item were not available since there was no such item in the data. Numerous findings were discussed accordingly. Conclusions: This study showed that there were likely requirements for improvements in the 6th 3D head anthropometric data as follows: Standardization of Korean and English terms; addition of head dimensions items missed in the Size Korea survey; and reliability of generalizability for subjects, suggesting that the study results can be used for further studies or improvement of respirator selection in Korea.

The present study aimed to examine the moderating effects of marital satisfaction (MS) on the association between the number of chronic disease (CD) and depressive symptoms (DS) among ol der men and women. The 6th wave of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing was utilized and the sample was married men (N=585) and women (N=460) aged 65 and over. Multiple regression analysis using SPSS WIN 25.0 and Process Macro was used to test moderating effects of MS. Control variables were age, education, household income, parent-child relationship satisfaction, self-rated health, cognitive function, current smoking status and CD of spouse. Resul ts from elderly men showed the moderating effect of MS was significant. Specifically, those with more CD were more likely to report higher level of DS in the low MS group. However, the effect of CD on DS was not significant in the high MS group. Results from elderly women showed the moderating effect of MS was not significant. This study showed the moderating effect of MS on the association between CD and DS differed by gender in later life. It suggests practical intervention to utilize the resources of spouses is in need to promote mentally healthy aging even though having chronically ill in later life.
