Digital images of cultural relics captured using line scan cameras present limitations due to uneven intensity and low contrast. To address this issue, this report proposes a colour linear array image enhancement method that can maintain a constant colour. First, the colour linear array image is converted from the red-green-blue (RGB) colour space into the hue-saturation-intensity colour space, and the three components of hue, saturation, and intensity are separated. Subsequently, the hue and saturation components are held constant while the intensity component is processed using the established intensity compensation model to eliminate the uneven intensity of the image. On this basis, the contrast of the intensity component is enhanced using an improved local contrast enhancement method. Finally, the processed image is converted into the RGB colour space. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method can significantly improve the visual effect of colour linear array images. Moreover, the objective quality evaluation parameters are improved compared to those determined using existing methods.

Because of their small mass, volume, solid state construction and long life, light-emitting diodes(LEDs) hold promises as a lighting source for intensive plant production system. Spectral characteristics and light intensity of LEDs were tested to investigate their feasibility as artificial lighting sources for growth and morphogenesis control in transplant production system. Blue, green, and red LEDs had a peak-emission wavelength at 442nm, 522nm, and 673nm, respectively. Their half width defined as the difference between upper and lower wavelength in the intensity equivalent to 50% of the maximum intensity showed 26nm, 41nm, and 74nm, respectively. Photosynthetic photon flux(PPE) at the distance of 9cm under the LEDs array was measured as $235{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ for red, $109{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ for green, and $75{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ for blue LEDs. At the same distance, green LEDs had the illuminance of 13,0001x, nine to ten times higher than those of red and blue LEDs. Red, green, and blue LEDs at a distance of 9cm had the irradiance of $46W{\cdot}m^{-2},\;19W{\cdot}m^{-2},\;8W{\cdot}m^{-2}$, respectively. Light intensity of blue, green, and red LEDs increased linearly in proportion to the magnitude of the current applied to the operating circuit. Thus the light intensity of LEDs was controlled by the applied current in operating circuit.

Objective: Transgenic technology is widely used for industrial applications and basic research. Systems that allow for genetic modification play a crucial role in biotechnology for a number of purposes, including the functional analysis of specific genes and the production of exogenous proteins. In this study, we examined and verified the cumate-inducible transgene expression system in chicken DF1 and quail QM7 cells, as well as loxP element-mediated transgene recombination using Cre recombinase in DF1 cells. Methods: After stable transfer of the transgene with piggyBac transposon and transposase, transgene expression was induced by an appropriate concentration of cumate. Additionally, we showed that the transgene can be replaced with additional transgenes by co-transfection with the Cre recombinase expression vector. Results: In the cumate-GFP DF1 and QM7 cells, green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression was repressed in the off state in the absence of cumate, and the GFP transgene expression was successfully induced in the presence of cumate. In the cumate-MyoD DF1 cells, MyoD transgene expression was induced by cumate, and the genes controlled by MyoD were upregulated according to the number of days in culture. Additionally, for the translocation experiments, a stable enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP)-expressing DF1 cell line transfected with the loxP66-eGFP-loxP71 vector was established, and DsRed-positive and eGFP-negative cells were observed after 14 days of co-transfection with the DsRed transgene and Cre recombinase indicating that the eGFP transgene was excised, and the DsRed transgene was replaced by Cre recombination. Conclusion: Transgene induction or replacement cassette systems in avian cells can be applied in functional genomics studies of specific genes and adapted further for efficient generation of transgenic poultry to modulate target gene expression.

Since the protection the of human being from natural disaster and atmospheric factors have become an essential requirement, some attempts have been taken place to provide shelter and create a safe environment to a more comfortable life with welfare. For this purpose, using existing resources in nature and exploiting them in a different manner have been taken into account. Initially, the performed exploitations for construction had the least damage to the environment, but over time and as a result of population growth, aggressive exploitation of nature has led to destroying effects on the environment and resulted in consequences such as pollution and environmental destruction. Thus, the construction industry has been identified as the top pollutant factors of the environment. Among various construction factors, the building materials used in this industry are considered as the most important effective factors on the environment, as they have direct influences on the environment from the beginning of construction of the final steps. This research focuses on the review of the most of the existing green materials definitions and various approaches towards using eco-efficient construction materials. It presents and discusses possible ways of reducing the destructive effects on the environment by selecting and using green materials, review current literature and highlight the necessity of applying such materials in future constructions in all communities. This paper provides a base for this purpose that sustainable development communities and environment is realized by elimination of environmental pollution and approaching the criteria of green building by using sustainable materials.

This study was conducted to investigate the response of the human body to stress induced by wall recording of subway stations in the city center. The experiment was conducted as a simulation exercise, and six images were selected and produced based on Subway Line 2, a representative underground space in Seoul. The study participants included 24 male and female college students. A three-minute experiment was conducted, during which the participants were shown the control image and green wall image once each. To measure psychological status, the following measurement indicators were used: Semantic Differential, Positive Affect and Negative Affect Schedule and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Physiological changes were investigated by tracking participants' heart rate and blood pressure. Results showed that parasympathetic and sympathetic nerves were activated in the presence of the green wall in the subway station. The psychological evaluation analysis revealed that negative affect toward underground space decreased, while positive affect increased. This study found that the green wall in subway stations has a stable effect on the human body, both psychologically and physiologically. In the future, green walls in underground spaces can be used to reduce psychological stress and increase physiological relaxation.

The major purposes of this study were to analyze main features of US Green Building Council's LEED for Homes rating system and examine residents' satisfaction on their LEED-certified homes and neighborhoods. The first part of this article shows the structure and features of the LEED for Homes rating system and the process to obtain credits of this rating system. The investigation to assess residents' satisfaction targeted LEED certified home residents in Midwest in the United State. The satisfaction was assessed in relation to socio-demographic and housing characteristics. To collect data, a quantitative survey was administered to the residents of LEED-certified homes in Midwest in the US. A total of 605 surveys was sent out and 235 were collected, yielding a 38.8% response rate. Findings revealed that LEED-certified home residents were highly satisfied with their homes and neighborhood although neighborhood satisfaction was lower than housing satisfaction. Residents' income and education were the significant socio-demographic factors that show significant relationships with housing satisfaction. Residents' home ownership, length of residence, housing types were significant housing characteristics on their satisfaction while the levels of LEED certifications (i.e., certified, silver, gold, and platinum) were not significantly related to housing satisfaction. The findings of this study suggest the importance of developing effective strategies for those who are less educated, lower income classes, renters, or multi-attached housing residents for more successful development of LEED-certified homes in the future.

In this study, green barium strontium silicate phosphor ($BaSrSiO_4:Eu^{3+}$, $Eu^{2+}$) was synthesized using a solid-state reaction method in air and reducing atmosphere. Investigation of the firing temperature indicates that a single phase of $BaSrSiO_4$ is formed when the firing temperature is higher than $1400^{\circ}C$. The effect of firing temperature and doping concentration on luminescent properties are investigated. The light-emitting property was the best when the molar content of $Eu_2O_3$ was 0.025 mol. Also, the luminescent brightness of the $BaSrSiO_4$ fluorescent substance was the best when the particle size of the barium was $0.5{\mu}m$. $BaSrSiO_4$ phosphors exhibit the typical green luminescent properties of $Eu^{3+}$ and $Eu^{2+}$. The characteristics of the synthesized $BaSrSiO_4:Eu^{3+}$, $Eu^{2+}$ phosphor were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy. The maximum emission band of the $BaSrSiO_4:Eu^{3+}$, $Eu^{2+}$ was 520 nm.
