This study was carried out to know how erosion control function of forests varies as forests develop in watersheds. The erosion control function among the forest welfare functions can be estimated by comparing sediment yield in stocked with non-stocked area. Sediment yield of reservoirs in stocked area were collected from farmland improvement associations. The sediment yields in non-stocked area were using USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) in the same reservoirs. Forests' erosion control function estimated by differences of the sediment yield between stocked and non-stocked area was static model because of no consideration on forest aging. Dynamic model was developed to consider a forest stand age. The model comprises the relationship between average forest age in watershed and sediment yield. The amount of sediment yield was different depending mother rocks. It decreased exponentially according to the forest's grow up. In case of igneous rock, the volume of sediment yield $Y_{ig}=1.4431e\;^{0.023x}$(x=average forest age), metamorphic rock $Y_{me}=4.7115e\;^{0.0694x}$, and sedimentary rock $Y_{se}=1.2808e\;^{0.028x}$.

Instead of sensory evaluation, we designed an evaluation method of the setting function of hairstyling products, based on an original theory focusing on changes in bending stress observed when a load with continuous bending is applied to human hair. Specifically, we developed a device to measure bending stress to quickly and objectively evaluate the condition of human hair, particularly its dynamic properties such as the setting function, following the application of hairstyling products. This device generates a load with continuous bending while applying a pendulum motion to a hair tress, one end of which is anchored. The setting function and holding power of resins of various molecular weight and ionic properties were evaluated using this device. The results demonstrated a close correlation with those obtained by experts' sensory evaluation. The evaluation results of bending stress and holding rate confirmed that the combined use of two different resins could improve the function of setting preparations. Evaluation using this device was able to substitute for sensory evaluation, and offers quick objective evaluation and detection of changes in the holding power of hairstyling products over time. We conclude that evaluation using this device is a promising new method.

Background and objective: This study was conducted to understand urban residents' perception of indoor plants in order to assist in the preparation of guidelines for growing plants indoors. Methods: Questionnaires were distributed to urban residents currently growing plants or with experience of growing plants. The data of 247 respondents were subjected to analysis to assess their level of interest and ability with regard to growing plants, and their recognition of the selection and function of plants. Results: Respondents showed high interest in growing plants at a level of 6.77, but their ability was moderate. This suggests that information regarding plant maintenance should be provided to urban residents. They recognized the function of plants for improving the environment as important, and expected that indoor plants would improve their mood and visual experience. Satisfaction with growing plants was high from an emotional perspective. They recognized that the function of air purification function was important even if the actual performance or effect was not great. This indicates that the function of air purification should be emphasized more. As the result of the IPA, plants should be selected in consideration of morphological characteristics such as leaf, flower and fruit, and continuously managed to maintain their characteristics. Since the performance of pots was less satisfactory compared to their importance, they should be selected so that they harmonize better with plants and are of the appropriate size to fit the space. The type of plants is an important factor in plant selection in order to perform an environmental function, and the flower color and pot size are important in terms of aesthetics and healing. Conclusion: When horticulture information on indoor plants is provided to urban residents, first, it should be provided to satisfy the functions of the plants required by urban residents and in order to promote and maintain the proper growth of plants. Second, various contents that utilize components should be developed to achieve plant function so that resident can determine the function of plants and select the type, quantity, and shape of plants to achieve the desired function.

Weight bearing is effective during rehabilitation of gait, in the elderly and disabled people. Various training devices using weight bearing function were developed along with treadmill walking; however, no device has been developed in conjunction to walking on the ground. Here, we designed a rail type frame of a gait rehabilitation system for body-weight support (BWS) function, and analyzed its mechanical safety in the static weight bearing condition of a vertical axis. Computational simulations were performed to analyze structure of the driving parts, which are connected with a rail and driving rollers and the lower plate of the BWS. Structural analyses showed the drivers and BWS were safe, when simulated at 135kg weight under static conditions. Thus, this rail type rehabilitation system can be used for gait training of the elderly and disabled.

We present the first measurement of the angular two-point correlation function for AKARI $90{\mu}m$ point sources, detected outside of the Milky Way plane and selected as candidates for extragalactic sources. This is the first measurement of the large-scale angular clustering of galaxies selected in the far-infrared after IRAS. We find a positive clustering signal in both hemispheres extending up to ~ 40 degrees, without any significant fluctuations at larger scales. The observed correlation function is well fitted by a power law function. However, southern galaxies seem to be more strongly clustered than northern ones and the difference is statistically significant. The reason for this difference - technical or physical - is still to be found.

A well-holder type piezoelectric chloramphenicol (CAP) immunosensor which was prepared by binding an anti­CAP antibody to the chemisorbed monolayers of various thiol or sulfide compounds over the gold electrode surface of quartz crystals through a carboxyl-amine coupling procedure, using the activation with l-ethyl- 3-(3-dimethylarninopropyl)carbodiimide­HCl and N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide, was determined for its responses to CAP, CAP succinate, and water-soluble CAP. The reaction phase used in the well holder was 0.01 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), and the solvent for analyte dissolution varied according to the solubility of the individual analyte. The analyte detection which was indicated by a steady-state frequency shift was finished within 10 min, except for CAP dissolved in methanol. The responses of CAP succinate and water-soluble CAP in the reaction phase were very stable, while a minute fluctuation was found with CAP.

The in vivo immunomodulatory function of the activity of murine natural killer (NK) cells induced by high mannuronic acid-containing alginate (HMA) was examined. HMA was injected i.p at doses of 25 and 100 mg/kg. The NK activity was 3 times higher with 100 mg/kg HMA than the baseline. In addition, in vitro studies of splenocytes cultured with HMA for 20 h showed a significant increase in NK activity at E:T ratio of 100: 1; a 160$\%$ and 210$\%$ increase at 10 and 100 $\mu$g/mL, respectively. There was a six fold increase in interferon-$\gamma$ production in a postculture of splenocytes with 100 $\mu$g/mL HMA. HMA had no suppressive effects on the lymphocyte function in the presence or absence of mitogens. This suggests that HMA is useful in cancer immunotherapy.

The optimization of a batch-type quartz crystal microbalance (QCM)-precipitation sensor measuring acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was conducted. To covalently bind AChE onto the gold electrode of a QCM surface, glutaraldehyde cross-linking to a cystamine self-assembled monolayer was tried at different cystamine concentrations. At the optimum conditions of the QCM-precipitation sensor, 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 8.0), containing 0.01% Tween 80, was used as the reaction buffer, with the enzyme amount of 5 units for immobilization and the substrate concentration of 50 mg/ml. The current biosensor might find a future applicability to the sum parameter detection on organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides.

Multi-layer neural networks with error back-propagation algorithm have a great potential for identifying nonlinear systems with unknown characteristics. However, because they have a demerit that the speed of convergence is too slow, various methods for improving the training characteristics of backpropagition networks have been proposed. In this paper, a fuzzy division method is proposed to improve the convergence speed, which can find out an effective fuzzy division by the tuning of membership function and independently train each neural network after dividing the network model into several parts. In the simulations, the proposed method showed that the optimal fuzzy partitions could be found from the arbitray initial ones and that the convergence speed was faster than the traditional method without the fuzzy division.
