The purpose of this paper was to review NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, which is an updated version of the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (1989). With releasing the previous version, NCTM has affected mathematics education in other countries as well as in the United States. The Principles and Standards for School Mathematics was revised in line with current technology and requirement of students, who will live in the 21st century. However, many mathematics teachers and educators do not know about the contents of this new version even though most of them already know what the version is about. In this paper, the author addressed the contents of the version with his personal opinions and suggested some lessons from the version.

A dual-band bio-implantable compact antenna with a meander-line structure is presented. The proposed meander-line antenna resonates at the industrial, scientific, and medical (2.4 GHz) and wireless medical telemetry (1.4 GHz) bands. The meander-line structure is selected as a radiating patch given its versatile and effective design. With a dimension of only 10 mm × 10 mm × 0.635 mm, the designed antenna is compact. Considering a skin phantom, the proposed antenna was designed, optimized, and simulated. The Rogers RT/duroid 6010 substrate material with high dielectric constant was used to fabricate the meander-line dual-band implantable antenna, which was validated experimentally. The superstrate was made of the same material. Experiments were conducted on skin-mimicking gel. The designed meander-line antenna has a high peak gain of -21 dBi at 2.4 GHz, and its maximum specific absorption rate is compliant with IEEE safety standards.

The measurement of absolute humidity of gases is essential in many industries. The effect of temperature on aluminum oxide and chilled mirror dew-point hygrometers is investigated. The temperature of laboratory, pipe line, and sensor is varied and the dew point is measured by two different aluminum oxide hygrometers. In all cases, the dew point of hygrometers is increased as the temperature is elevated. The reason behind this observation is due to desorption of water from the inside of pipe line and/or sensor surroundings at elevated temperature that result in the increase of the absolute humidity. Moreover, the sensor itself shows a certain degree of temperature dependency in sensing the humidity especially at low temperature. It is also studied that chilled mirror dew-point hygrometer may indicate a higher dew point than the reference at high temperature because the cooling capability of mirror is decreased at high temperature. Our study will provide evidences in the incorporation of the temperature effect as uncertainty factors in the standard calibration procedure for dew point hygrometers.

In this study, we demonstrate ultrahigh-resolution spectral-domain optical coherence tomography with a 200-kHz line rate using a superluminescent diode with a -3-dB bandwidth of 100 nm at 849 nm. To increase the line rate, a subset of the total number of camera pixels is used. In addition, a partial-spectrum detection method is used to obtain OCT images within an imaging depth of 2.1 mm while maintaining ultrahigh axial resolution. The partially detected spectrum has a flat-topped intensity profile, and side lobes occur after fast Fourier transformation. Consequently, we propose and apply the super-Gaussian window function as a new window function, to reduce the side lobes and obtain a result that is close to that of the axial-resolution condition with no window function applied. Upon application of the super-Gaussian window function, the result is close to the ultrahigh axial resolution of 4.2 ㎛ in air, corresponding to 3.1 ㎛ in tissue (n = 1.35).

The Seoul subway is acting the center of public transportation after the opening of the first line on August 15, 1974. and the subway line of the DC traction system is running and building to the ninth line. However, the main insulation parts used in overhead contact line are now imported from overseas products. Therefore, this paper considers domestic manufacture technology, supply easiness and economic effectiveness of insulation products and reviews the safety of support insulator used in rigid conductor line, stem insulator used in movable bracket and AC/DC different phase section insulator that localization development is necessary.

The fault current through the earth originated from a power line ground fault might cause arcing through the soil to an adjacent pipeline, which might bring about not only a catastrophic accident such as gas explosion and oil leakage but also a hazard to the safety of workers responsible for the maintenance and repair of the pipeline. In this paper we investigated the arcing phenomena through soil between a power line tower and a pipeline and outlined the standards for the separation distance of a buried pipeline adjacent to the power line tower.

In this paper, a free-space material measurement technique is discussed in W-band(75~110 GHz). For the accurate measurement of S-parameters of an MUT(Material Under Test) in free space, a W-band quasi-optical free-space material measurement system, less affected by the measurement environments, is discussed, and GRL(Gated Reflect Line) method for calibrating the measurement system is described. Proposed technique is verified for 'Air' and measurement results for arystal plates of thickness 1.1 mm, 2 mm, 2.75 mm and 5 mm are also shown.

This paper presents an optical sampling technique which can be used to overcome the limited bandwidth of a commercial electronic sampling oscilloscope for pulsed signal measurement. Employing an ultrafast laser with 0.1 ps pulse duration, 20 GHz electromagnetic pulses were generated through a fast photodiode. These pulses were transmitted through a microstrip line and sampled with an optically triggered electro-optic system. Two sampled 20 GHz pulses - measured independently over the transmission line with a non-contacting electro-optic method and conventional electronic one through a coaxial cable - were compared.

Objective: This study was performed to investigate the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in auto workers of a mission assembly plants. Background: Most studies of musculoskeletal disorders have used car assembly line workers as their participants. However, little research has been done on musculoskeletal disorders afflictions of mission assembly line workers. Method: Through a focus group interview with an ergonomist and a manager at a mission assembly plant site, a questionnaire was developed for musculoskeletal disorders. The questionnaire consisted of five parts, demographic factors, musculoskeletal disorder symptoms, and musculoskeletal disorder experiences; 137 workers participated in this survey. The surveys were analyzed by correlation and Chi-squared analysis. Results: Musculoskeletal disorder symptoms and serious pain were reported in the neck, shoulder, back, and fingers. These problems were statistically related to various demographic factors, such as age, stature, stretching, and work satisfaction. Conclusion: Treatment of musculoskeletal disorders should consider the workers' traits. If there is no specific cause of the pain, developing stretches and exercises before and after work should be applied to prevent musculoskeletal disorders. Application: The results of this study can be used to develop guidelines to prevent injury in auto workers at mission assembly plants.
