Integrated quantitative assessments of urban hydrogen refueling stations in economic, environmental, and safety aspects

As the hydrogen society emerges, hydrogen refueling stations (HRSs) should be installed to accommodate the demand for fuel-cell electric vehicles. In this study, to determine the acceptable HRS for urban areas, off-site and on-site HRSs were investigated using techno-economic, li...

The Golden Cage: How Algorithmic Nurturing Systemically Erodes Human Autonomy Under Artificial General Intelligence

The proliferation of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) presents a systemic paradox within complex socio-technical systems: while enhancing efficiency, AGI may subvert human autonomy through comfort-based alignment rather than overt coercion. Although algorithmic management re...

Directionally Aligned, Defect-Suppressed Non-oxidatively Exfoliated Graphene Flakes for High EMI Shielding Performance

Abstract In this study, we report the development of high-performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding composites incorporating directionally aligned non-oxidatively exfoliated graphene flakes (NOGF) within a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. The NOGF was synthesize...

Impact of AIoT-Enabled Cold Chain System Implementation on Operational Performance: Moderating Effect of ISO Certification

Background: This study examines the relationships among resource reduction awareness (RRA), AIoT-enabled Cold Chain System (CCS) implementation, supply–demand control (SDC), perceived operational performance (OPF), and ISO certification from a Lean Logistics perspective. Method:...

Diagnosing patulous Eustachian tube dysfunction using the nine-step and inflation tests

This study evaluated the diagnostic value of the nine-step test and an inflation test for patulous Eustachian tube (PET). We prospectively analyzed 27 ears from 18 patients with definite PET who underwent ventilation tube insertion, and 18 ears from 18 control participants with t...

Integrative multi-omics analyses reveal that exogenous indole-3-lactic acid enhances growth by modulating various metabolic pathways in Lemna aequinoctialis culture

Lemna aequinoctialis is an aquatic plant with high potential for feed, food, and pharmaceutical resources due to its rapid propagation and rich metabolite profile. In this study, we investigated the effect of indole-3-lactic acid (ILA) on the growth and metabolomic, lipidomic, an...

Efficacy of Polyhexamethylene Biguanide Antibacterial Gel Coating of Orthopedic Implants in Infection Control and Immune Modulation

ABSTRACT With the growth of the older adult population and the increasing incidence of traumatic injuries, the use of orthopedic devices has risen significantly. However, in addition to material‐related limitations, one of the most serious challenges associated with these devices...

Defining the problem of pandemic resource allocation: perspectives from healthcare providers and civil society advocates in South Korea

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic raised ethical questions about how scarce medical resources should be defined and allocated. Existing debates have largely focused on triage criteria and distributive principles, with less attention to how different social and institution...

Accuracy Verification and Correction of a Depth-Camera-Based Digital Measurement System for Pelvic Balance Assessment in the Trendelenburg Test

This study proposes a markerless, single-camera depth-sensing system for digitally quantifying pelvic-balance ability in the Trendelenburg test, and verifies its accuracy and reliability against a marker-based motion capture (MC) reference and manual measurement (MM) in 16 health...
