For the quantitative analysis of an unknown sample a calibration curve should be obtained, as analytical instruments give relative, rather than absolute measurements. Therefore, researchers should make standard samples with various known concentrations, measure each standard and the unknown sample, and then determine the concentration of the unknown by comparing the measured value to those of the standards. These procedures are tedious and time-consuming. Therefore, we developed a polymer based microfluidic device from polydimethylsiloxane, which integrates serial dilution and capillary electrophoresis functions in a single device. The integrated microchip can provide a one-step analytical tool, and thus replace the complex experimental procedures. Two plastic syringes, one containing a buffer solution and the other a standard solution, were connected to two inlet holes on a microchip, and pushed by a hydrodynamic force. The standard sample is serially diluted to various concentrations through the microfluidic networks. The diluted samples are sequentially introduced through microchannels by electro-osmotic force, and their laser-induced fluorescence signals measured by capillary electrophoresis. We demonstrate the integrated microchip performance by measuring the fluorescence signals of fluorescein at various concentrations. The calibration curve obtained from the electropherograms showed the expected linearity.

This study used the method that measure the participants' responds on the experiment, and the measurement means is a survey. The primary factor plan is $5{\times}2{\times}3{\times}2$. The independent variable are neckline(5), trousers or skirt style(2), somatotype(3), culture(2), and the dependant variables are physical visual effect and the favor of clothe design. In cases of Korean, thin somatotype had better were V-neckline suit for looking shoulders wide because they have too narrow shoulders, and were pants suit than skirt suit for looking pelvis major. thin somatotype person who wants to look tall should wear china collar or tailored collar suit with pants. If she wears round neckline suit with skirt, the lower part of body and the height look tall. Pants suit with V neckline and skirt suit with china collar make standard somatotype looked having wide shoulders. Standard somatotype person with wide shoulder should avoid this style. The size of waist and pelvis was looked thick in round neckline and was looked thin in V neckline. So it will be better to find the right suit for one's weakness. Obesity had better wear V neckline to look neck slim and not wear stand and tailored collar. When obesity person wears pants suit, she is looked having slim waist than skirt suit. In case of American, thin somatotype in pants suit looks much taller than in skirt suit when she wears round neckline and stand collar suit. Standard somatotype has no difference because it is the basic shapes. Generally, it goes with all kinds of suit design. The belly and pelvis of American's obesity look fatter and bigger than Korean's obesity. The same with Korean, round neckline suit makes obesity looked belly and pelvis fat and big.

The research related to testing pupils' achievement in the field of Measurement and Measure in initial teaching of geometry points to an insufficient adoption of the basic components of the length measurement concept among pupils. In order to discover the cause, we looked at the basic components on which the procedure of measuring length using a ruler is based, highlighted the possibilities of introducing the procedure in measuring length, and determined pupils' achievement during the procedure of measuring length using a ruler. The research sample consisted of 145 pupils, out of which 72 were the 2^nd grade pupils and 73 were the 4^th grade pupils. A descriptive method was applied in the research. The technique we used was testing, and for the statistical data processing we used a χ² test. The results of the research show that, when drawing a straight line of a given length using a ruler, there is no statistical difference in achievement between the 2^nd and 4^th grade pupils, nor in the pupils' knowledge regarding drawing a ruler independently, while drawing a straight line of a given length using a "broken" ruler 4^th grade pupils are statistically better. The results of the research indicate that pupils' achievement is better in doing standard tasks than in non-standard ones, given that the latter require conceptual knowledge. The components of the concept of length measurement using ruler have not been sufficiently developed yet, and these include: zero-point, partitioning a measured object in a series of consecutive measurement units and their iteration. We shed more light on the critical stage in the procedure of length measurement - the transition from non-standard to standard units and the formation of the length measurement scale. For further research, we propose to look at the formation of the concept of length measurement using the ruler through all its components and their inclusion in the mathematics curriculum, as well as examining the correlation of pupils' achievement in the procedure of measuring length with their achievement in measuring area (and volume).

There are several antenna calibration methods, so-called 3-Antenna Method, Standard Site Method, and Standard Antenna Method which measure the antenna gains or antenna factors. These methods yield the free space or quasi free space antenna gains in only the frequency domain. In this paper, an antenna calibration method using the time domain in the open area test site is discussed. The reflected waves due to the ground are traced in the time domain. After they are removed by the time gating function of network analyzer, the free space transmission coefficient $S_{21}$ is extracted. Such a way is applied to the broad band horn antenna ranging 1 GHz to 18 GHz, and the free space gains are obtained by Friis transmission equation. The method is checked by Standard Site Method in open area test site. The results show comparatively good agreement except for 18 GHz.

In this paper, we have designed and implemented a system that utilizes a radar sensor to measure distance between a sensor and objects. The sensor module creates raw data and uploads the data on the distance measuring system, which detects the presence of objects by using standard deviation and average filters. The experiment found that an algorithm using average filters measured people with error rates of up to 9.7 meters and a maximum error rate of 0.02 meters or less. While in an algorithm using standard deviations, it was found that an object is measured at an error rate of up to a maximum distance of 9.7 meters and a maximum error rate of 0.15 meters. Therefore, we have concluded that if a distance was measured by using a radar sensor, algorithms using average filters resulted in a higher accuracy than standard deviations filters.

In light-frame timber construction, the shear wall is one of the most important components that provide resistance to lateral loads such as earthquakes or winds. According to KDS (Korea Design Standard) 42 50 10, shear walls are to be constructed using wood-based structural sheathing, with studs connected by 8d nails spaced 150 mm along the edge and 300 mm in the field. Even though small-scale residential timber building can be designed to exhibit seismic resistance using light-frame timber shear walls in accordance with KDS 42 50 10, only the abovementioned standard type of timber shear wall is available. Therefore, more types of timber shear walls composed of various materials should be tested to measure their seismic resistance, and the results should be incorporated into the future revision of KDS 42 50 10. In this study, the seismic resistance of shear walls composed of structural timber studs and wood-based structural sheathing with reinforced nailing is tested to evaluate the effects of the reinforcement. For the nailing reinforcement, shear wall specimens are constructed by applying nail spacings of 75-150 mm and 50-100 mm. For the shear wall specimens with one sheathing and reinforced nailing, the shear strengths are 1.7-2.0 times higher than that of the standard shear wall (nail spacing of 150-300 mm). The shear strength of the shear walls with sheathing on both sides is 2.0-2.7 times higher than that of the standard shear wall.

In this study, an attempt was made to measure uncertainties involved in the VOC analysis for the VOC working standards prepared by a dilution technique using Tedlar bags. For this purpose, VOC standard gases of benzene, toluene, xylene, and styrene were prepared at four different concentrations (4, 8, 20, and 40 ppb). These standard samples were then loaded on to the GC system equipped with air server/thermal desorption (AS/TD) system. Each of these four standard concentrations was analyzed individually to derive their respective calibration results. These calibration data sets were then compared across four different compounds. According to this comparison, differences in calibration patterns were moderately insignificant within the selected concentration range of 4~40 ppb. It was also observed that the loss of styrene standard was fairly high compared to other VOCs investigated simultaneously. The results of our study suggest that the analytical uncertainty associated with the preparation of VOC starndard gas using a dilution technique can be assessed in a fairly reasonable manner for samples with a narrow concentration range.

As the demand for natural gas increases with industrial development, the supply of natural gas is expected to become unstable with a shortage of imported natural gas. It is hence necessary to meet this demand by introducing and developing various types of natural gas, such as pipeline natural gas (PNG) and substituted natural gas (SNG), in addition to liquefied natural gas (LNG). The components included in PNG as well as their concentrations must be measured accurately, and a standard gas should be developed to accurately measure hydrocarbons ($C_6-C_{10}$), which are trace components included in natural gas. The components in the primary standard gas mixtures (PSMs) developed in the present study were hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, and decane with concentrations of $10-30{\mu}mol/mol$ with methane as the balance gas. Standard hydrocarbon ($C_6-C_{10}$) gas mixtures were prepared in aluminum cylinders by a gravimetric method with traceability following ISO 6142 with raw material gases, for which the purity of each component was analyzed completely. The prepared standard gas mixtures were analyzed by to evaluate the preparation consistency between the standard gas mixtures, the adsorbability of the cylinders, the variation of the stability, and the uncertainty. The results showed that aluminum cylinders have little adsorptive loss on their internal surfaces with excellent long-term stability. The developed standard gas mixture, containing hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, and decane with concentrations of $10-30{\mu}mol/mol$, showed an uncertainty in a range of 0.79 % - 1.63 %.
