The extent of variation in the composition and amount of carotenoids among a large number of phenotypic variants, induced from a single wild type parent by N-methyl-N'-nitrosoguanidin treatment, has been compared be...

The lightweight technique for automobile is urgently needed to achieve the aim of CO2 emission control. In this paper, the mechanical properties and the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of carbon fiber reinforced polypr...

Novel binary liquid crystalline systems were obtained by mixing amorphous side-chain polymethacrylate (SCP) and polar compounds. Their thermal and orientational properties were examined by DSC measurement, polarizing mic...

Liquid crystalline polyurethanes (LCPUs), having azobenzene mesogenic groups, formed a nematic phase on heating and cooling processes. Liquid crystalline binary mixtures were obtained by mixing LCPUs and strongly polar c...

This study fabricates 50SiO2・50GeO2 and 50SiO2・(50-x)GeO2・xR2O (R: Na, K, Rb, and Cs, x = 5?40) glasses using the conventional melt-quenching method. Their photoluminescence characteristics were investigated by mea...

Semiconductor integrated circuits use ultra-flat substrates called wafers, in which minute irregularities are eliminated to the utmost limit. To produce such a flat substrate, a polishing technique called chemical mechan...

Introducing alkyl chains into π-conjugated organic molecules is a well-established strategy for tuning solubility, crystallinity, and photophysical properties without significantly perturbing their electronic structures...

Both mercury and selenium distribution in the ordinary muscle of Japanese scad (Decapterus maruadsi), preserved under a fasting environment, was investigated in order to clarify the influence of fasting, which is general...

Video consultations constitute an emerging technology in Danish general practice, offering new ways for physicians and patients to interact. While previous studies have shown video consultations to be time-efficient, the...

Abstract This study assessed previous research aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of freeze-thawing on meat quality. Specifically, it focuses on assessing the physicochemical alterations in meat resulting from freez...

Elimination behavior of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) molecules adsorbed on Cu(II)-supported hydroxyapatite (Cu-HAp) using warmed ultrapure water was investigated, and H2S adsorption ability of Cu-HAp before and after exposure ...

Background Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a frequent and prominent phenomenon in major depressive disorder (MDD). Even though its prevalence and risk factors are relatively well understood, the potential mechanisms o...

This paper examines how the guiding principle of human-centered AI can be reflected in the social acceptance of self-driving cars in relation to the reduction in the number of traffic accidents, which has been cited as a...

With ever increasing concern on energy diversification, energy efficiency and environmental protection, electric vehicles (EVs) including the pure EV (PEV), hybrid EV (HEV) and fuel-cell EV (FEV) are becoming attractive ...

With the growth of the portable device with camera, we can take a variety of photos. In addition, with the higher resolution of the camera, it becomes possible to recognize a character in the scene taken by the camera. T...

Recently, various issues in self-propelled multi-storey car parks are becoming social concerns: accidents thefts, difficulty in finding a parking space, limited space for getting in/out of cars, and less friendly environ...

Purpose of this study is to develop a method for accurate capillary area extraction from a captured image using RGB and HSV features. Experiments were conducted with eleven subjects. The proposed method utilizing OpenCV...

Despite all of the information-gathering media, it remains unclear whether or not any website structures allow easy access to information for the visually impaired. In this study, visually impaired people who use screen ...
