Site-specific N application for corn is one of the precision crop management. To implement the site-specific N application, various nitrogen stress sensing methods, including aerial image, tissue analysis, soil sampling analysis, and SPAD meter readings, have been used. Use of side-dressing, an efficient nitrogen application method than a uniform application in either late fall or early spring, relies mainly on the capability of nitrogen deficiency detection. This paper presents map-based variable rate nitrogen application based using a multi-spectral corn nitrogen deficiency(CND) sensor. This sensor assess the nitrogen stress by means of the estimated SPAD reading calculated from the corn leave reflectance. The estimated SPAD value from the CND sensor system and location information form DGPS of each field block was combined into the field map using a ArcView program. Then this map was converted into a raster file for a map-based variable rate application software. The relative SPAD (RSPAD = SPAD over reference SPAD) was investigated 2 weeks after the treatments. The results showed that the map-based variable rate application system was feasible.

Purpose : The solar shading device carries out roles in a reduction of the cooling load and an improvement of the thermal comfort of occupants by adjusting incident solar radiation. In addition, The shading device enhances the visual sensation comfort by controlling the optical properties. In order to improve building performance and comfort of occupancy, interests in application of the shading devices are getting increasing. This study investigated the application and effectiveness of the external shading device design using statistical analysis. The outcome of this paper could be utilized for the realization of status quo and for an estimation of effectiveness of the shading device Method : The period of data gathering was between 2003 and 2014 and total 459 cases of practical building project were investigated. Firstly, this study defined qualification of the shading devices; the shading device should have minimum protruding lengths of 150mm to outside and have the function of shading control. This paper investigated application rate of the shading device in real project, regional rate of application, annual change of application, materials and types. Result : The statistical analysis showed that the application rate of shading devices was 25.7% in total 459 building design projects. The application rate in central and southern region was 25.3% and 27.0% respectively. Meanwhile, Jeju region showed 22.2%, which was the lowest rate although this area needs more shading devices. The application number of the shading device was the smallest in 2007, but the rate gradually increased after that. The applications was the largest in 2014 due to growing interest of the shading devices in the building.

The use of snap-fit features is highly recommended to reduce overall product cost and manufacturing time by reducing the number of parts and eliminating assembly with conventional fasteners. Application to particular product for integral attachment using snap-fit features is needed. Alternative attachment concept for specific application has been introduced. In this study, the optimal attachment design based on the given design objectives is identified using newly developed alternative attachment concept for the specific application to LCD monitor case assembly. Integral attachment using snap-fit features applies the systematic procedure and the intensity analysis.

North Korean market created by reunification of the Korean Peninsula is expected to serve as a new growth engine to the already-developed construction industry of South Korea. Improvement on deteriorated construction facility of North Korea is a project in urgent need at the initial stage of reunification. Prior to market entry of the Korean peninsula under these circumstances, economic feasibility analysis on construction technology application must be preceded by considering reunification period. Therefore, this study conducts an economic feasibility analysis on construction facility improvement project of North Korea considering application period of technology developed by South Korea. Results of this study are expected to be utilized in future reunification process as the basis for establishing relevant guidelines for construction facility improvement project of North Korea.

Boron has been considered to play a nutritionally important role in humans and animals, but its biochemical functions are not clearly understood. Though there are signs that boron affects the mineral and hormone metabolisms, there is no comprehensive epidemiological evidence establishing a relationship between a boron intake and osteoporosis due to the excretion of calcium in the bones. In this study, we investigated the influence of boron intake on the calcium excretion of old female mice in the menopause. The concentrations of calcium in backbone, thigh bone, blood, kidney, liver, and spleen were investigated by using instrumental neutron activation analysis.

During the fourth industrial revolution, the amount of data available to users has surged. And it became a stepping stone for various convergence technologies such as ECMA script, WebAssembly, and web of things using web technology. Also, as the amount of data shared on the web increases, the web has emerged as the most influential media in modern life. As a result, web developers have tried to deliver data quickly over the Web. So, various web application analysis tools appeared, and developers tried to find a solution to solve the speed problem by analyzing the web application. However, the performance of web application analysis tools has not improved significantly. Most existing analytical tools require direct installation, require expertise on the Web to perform analysis, and do not have function to analysis new technologies such as WebAssembly. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the design of a new reporting solution that can solve problems of existing web application analysis tool.

The field of load modeling has attracted the attention since it plays an important role for improving the accuracy of stability analysis and power flow estimation. Also, load modeling is an essential factor in the simulation and evaluation of power system performance. However, conventional load modeling techniques have some limitations with respect to accuracy for nonlinear and composite loads. Thus, precision load modeling technique and reasonable application method is needed for more accurate power system analysis. In this paper, we develop an intelligent load modeling method based. on neural network and application techniques for power system. The proposed method makes it possible to effectively estimate the load model for nonlinear models as well as linear models. Reasonable application method is also proposed for stability analysis. To demonstrate the validity of the proposed method, various experiments are performed and their results are presented.

Many packages for a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been developed to discover genetic variants. Although variations across studies must be considered, there are not many currently-accessible packages that estimate between-study heterogeneity. Thus, we propose a python based application called Beta-Meta which can easily process a meta-analysis by automatically selecting between a fixed effects and a random effects model based on heterogeneity. Beta-Meta implements flexible input data manipulation to allow multiple meta-analyses of different genotype-phenotype associations in a single process. It provides a step-by-step meta-analysis of GWAS for each association in the following order: heterogeneity test, two different calculations of an effect size and a p-value based on heterogeneity, and the Benjamini-Hochberg p-value adjustment. These methods enable users to validate the results of individual studies with greater statistical power and better estimation precision. We elaborate on these and illustrate them with examples from several studies of infertility-related disorders.
