Salicornia herbacea is a type of salt marsh plant that has been used in traditional medicine to treat several diseases. Isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside (I3G) and quercetin-3-O-glucoside (Q3G) are major flavonoids in S. herbacea that are known to exert various pharmacological activities. Therefore, our study sought to validate and optimize an HPLC/UV-based analytical method for I3G and Q3G yield quantification, as well as to determine its limit of detection, limit of quantification, linearity, precision, and accuracy. Upon testing a concentration range of 31.5-1.9 ㎍/mL the results exhibited good linearity (r² ≥0.9996 and r² ≥0.9999 for I3G and Q3G, respectively), and the procedure was deemed precise (relative standard deviation of ≤3.19 and ≤3.85%, respectively), and accurate (102.6-105.0 and 92.9-95.2%, respectively). The results showed that our proposed method could be used for rapid I3G and Q3G evaluation in S. herbacea.

More than 1 billion mobile apps (smartphone applications) have been released worldwide. Competition among developers of apps that are available in app stores has intensified because of increasing demand. App icons with an appealing design can instantly increase attention. Miryoku Engineering methods were used and combined with the Kansei interface model to examine the relationship between attractive icons and users. The evaluation grid method (EGM) is a qualitative method that was used to evaluate the icons, and Quantification Theory Type I is a quantitative method that was used to analyze the influence of design elements in icons. Eight attractive factors of app icons were determined using EGM, and six specific factors were identified using questionnaires. The quantitative results indicated that user cognition and emotion were influenced by the various design elements. The impact on the attractive factors of a single design element differed among users with diverse backgrounds. App icons were assessed on the basis of aesthetics to identify attractive factors and thereby assist designers in understanding and implementing design elements and improving the overall visual appeal of their apps. The result of this investigation is crucial to the presentation of app icons in online app stores.

Model-based predictions of structural behavior are negatively affected by uncertainties of various type and in various stages of the structural analysis. The present paper focusses on dynamic analysis and addresses the effects of uncertainties concerning material and geometric parameters, mainly in the context of modal analysis of large-scale structures. Given the large number of uncertain parameters arising in this case, highly scalable simulation-based methods are adopted, which can deal with possibly thousands of uncertain parameters. In order to solve the reliability problem, i.e., the estimation of very small exceedance probabilities, an advanced simulation method called Line Sampling is used. In combination with an efficient algorithm for the estimation of the most important uncertain parameters, the method provides good estimates of the failure probability and enables one to quantify the error in the estimate. Another aspect here considered is the uncertainty quantification for closely-spaced eigenfrequencies. The solution here adopted represents each eigenfrequency as a weighted superposition of the full set of eigenfrequencies. In a case study performed with the FE model of a satellite it is shown that the effects of uncertain parameters can be very different in magnitude, depending on the considered response quantity. In particular, the uncertainty in the quantities of interest (eigenfrequencies) turns out to be mainly caused by very few of the uncertain parameters, which results in sharp estimates of the failure probabilities at low computational cost.

Objective: The main objective of this study is to propose a user-centered assessment metric for ubiquitous services. Background: As the ubiquitous era took off, the interactions between ubiquitous services and users have come to take an important position. It is essential to conceptualize a new assessment model that considers human-system interaction capability with a user-centered design perspective. Method: The evaluation model for the interactivity of ubiquitous service was approached from the concept of usability and inter-personality of services. As a validation study, suggested assessment metric was utilized to evaluate the u-Home service. Priority weighting of each assessment metric was derived using the quantification type-I analysis. Results: To evaluate interactivity, this study suggested a quantitative metric for user testing performed after classifying the interactivity characteristics to contextualization; ubiquity; user experience; and service capability. Conclusion: This study suggest the metric for the ubiquitous service that are experienced in real life, and introduced the concept of ubiquitous service interactivity. Application: The suggested evaluation metric can be used to evaluate interactivity level of ubiquitous service and identify the potential problem and usability requirements at the early stage of service development.

In planning public service systems such as waterworks, the design population is very important factor. Owing to the limitations of the indirect method, two new models, which take into consideration urban characteristics, were developed to accurately predict external migration rate (EMR), which is an essential component in estimating reliably the design population. The root mean square error (RMSE) between the model values and observed values were 10.12 and 15.58 for the metropolitan cities and counties respectively and were lower compared to RMSE values of 27.31 and 28.79 obtained by the indirect method. Thus, the developed models provide a more accurate estimate of EMR than the indirect method. In addition, the major influencing factors for external migration in counties were development type, ageing index, number of businesses. On the other hand, the major influencing migration factors for cities were project scale, distance to city center, manufacturing size, population growth rate and residential environment. Future medium and long-term studies would be done to identify emerging trends to appropriately inform policy making.

본 연구는 임상도 상의 특성인 영급, 경급 및 수관밀도를 이용하여 임목의 축적 및 탄소저장량을 추정하는 기법을 개발하고자 하였다. 먼저 국가산림조사(강원도 중심)를 바탕으로 한 임목축적 자료를 임상도 제작 당시의 축적으로 전환하였으며, 이 자료와 임상도 특성과의 관계를 수량화I방법을 통하여 임목축적 추정 모형을 개발하였다. 임상도 특성이 임목축적 추정에 기여하는 바를 알 수 있는 제곱 편상관계수의 크기를 비교해 본 결과, 영급이 가장 큰 기여를 하고 있었으며, 다음이 수관밀도, 임상, 경급의 순이었다. 임목축적 추정치 중 최소치는 활엽수림의 영급 II, 경급 '소', 수관밀도 '소'인 분류기준에서 ha당 $20.0m^3$이고, 최대치는 침엽수림의 영급 VI, 경급 '대', 수관밀도 '밀'인 분류기준에서 ha당 305.0이었다. 임상별로 침엽수림은 ha당 $30.5{\sim}305.0m^3$, 활엽수림은 ha당 $20.0{\sim}200.4m^3$, 혼효림은 ha당 $23.8{\sim}238.1m^3$로 추정되었다. 임상별 탄소저장량을 비교해 보면, 임상에 무관하게 경급 '대', 수관밀도 '밀'인 분류기준에서 임목축적에 따른 영급별 탄소저장량이 최대인 것으로 나타났다. 본 임상도 특성을 이용한 임목축적 추정은 산지 전용 또는 산지 재해에 의한 임목축적의 감소 및 탄소저장량 변화를 충분히 추정할 수 있을 것이며, 일선 산림관계자 또는 정책입안자의 산림경영 의사결정에도 유효한 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

Probable human carcinogenic compounds nitrosamines, have been detected as by-product impurities in sartan pharmaceuticals in recent years which has drawn worries for medication safety. To provide a sensitive and effective method for the quality control of sartan pharmaceuticals, this study established a feasible gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous determination of 13 nitrosamines. The target analytes were separated on a DB-WAX Ultra Inert column (30 m × 0.25 mm; i.d., 0.25 ㎛) and were then subjected to electron impact ionization in multiple reaction monitoring mode. The established method was validated and further employed to analyze authentic samples. Limits of detection (LODs) and limits of quantification (LOQs) of the 13 nitrosamines were 15-250 ng/g and 50-250 ng/g, respectively, which also exhibited intra-day and inter-day accuracies of 91.4-104.8%, thereby satisfying validation criteria. Five nitrosamines, viz., N-nitrosodiethylamine, N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosodiphenylamine, N-nitrosomorpholine, and N-nitrosopiperidine were detected at concentrations above their LODs in 68 positive samples out of 594 authentic samples from seven sartans.
