The purpose of this research was to determine the influence of screening technologies (AM vs. FM) in the color reproduction aimed at the G7 master compliance. The quality of digital color printing is determined by these influential factors: screening method applied, type of printing process, ink (dry-toner or liquid-toner), printer resolution and the substrate (paper). For this research, only the color printing attributes such as the G7 colors hue and chroma, gray balance, and overall color deviations were analyzed to examine the significant differences that exist between the two screening technologies (AM vs. FM). These are the color attributes which are monitored and managed for quality accuracy during the printing. Printed colorimetry of each screening from the experiment was compared against G7 ColorSpace GRACoL 2013 (CGATS21-2-CRPC6) in CIE L* a* b* space using an IDEAlliance (Chromix/Hutch Color) Curve 4.2.4 application interface with an X-Rite spectrophotometer with an i1iO table. The measured data of each screening were run through this application (Curve 4.2.4). The data of each screening were analyzed by using the Verify Tool of the Curve 4.2.4 application to determine the pass/fail of G7 master compliance levels using G7 ColorSpace tolerances (G7 Grayscale, G7 Targeted, and G7 Colorspace). Analyzed data from the experiment revealed that the printed colorimetric values of each screening (G7 Grayscale, G7 Targeted, and G7 Colorspace) are in match (aligned) with the G7 master compliance levels (reference/target) colorimetric values (G7 Grayscale, G7 Targeted, and G7 Colorspace). Therefore, the press run was passed by the Curve 4 application for both screening technologies tested.

The purpose of this applied research was to determine the influence of device link profile (DLP) in the color reproduction aimed at the G7 master compliance. The quality of digital color printing is determined by these influential factors: screening method applied, type of printing process, ink (dry-toner or liquid-toner), printer resolution and the substrate (paper). For this research, only the color printing attributes such as the G7 colors hue and chroma, gray balance, and overall color deviations were analyzed to examine the significant differences that exist between the two output profiles [Output Device Profile (ODP) vs Device Link Profile (DLP)]. These are the color attributes which are monitored and managed for quality accuracy during the printing. Printed colorimetry of each profile from the experiment was compared against G7 ColorSpace GRACoL 2013 (CGATS21-2-CRPC6) in CIE L* a* b* space using an IDEAlliance (Chromix/Hutch Color) Curve 4.2.4 application interface with an X-Rite spectrophotometer with an i1iO table. The measured data of each profile were run through this application (Curve 4.2.4). The data were analyzed by using the Verify Tool of the Curve 4.2.4 application to determine the pass/fail of G7 master compliance levels using G7 ColorSpace tolerances (G7 Grayscale, G7 Targeted, and G7 Colorspace).

Therefore, the press run was passed by the Curve 4 application for both the profiles used/tested towards aiming for G7 master compliance.

The purpose of this applied research was to determine the Color Managed Digital Printing Workflow (CMDPW) consistency (4th C of the color management) over a period of time [100 days, (N = 100)]. The quality of digital color printing is determined by these influential factors: screening method applied, type of printing process, calibration method, device profile, ink (dry-toner or liquid-toner), printer resolution and the substrate (paper). For this research, only the color printing attributes such as the overall average color deviation [ACD, ΔE (2000)] and the solid ink density (SID) were analyzed to examine the CMDPW process consistency in a day-to- day digital printing operation. These are the color attributes which are monitored and managed for quality accuracy during the printing. Printed colors of the random sample size (n = 80) were measured against the GRACoL2013 standards to derive the colorimetric/densitometric values. Reference colorimetric values used in the analysis were the threshold deviations (acceptable color deviations) as outlined in the ISO12647-7 standards (GRACoL2013). A control charts analysis was applied for further determining the process (CMDPW) SID and ACD variation. The data collected were run through multiple software applications (MS-Excel/SPSS/Minitab) to apply various statistical methods. Analyzed data from the experiment revealed that the printed colorimetric values were in match (aligned) with the GRACoL 2013 (reference/target). Since the SID values of CMYK colors were in control throughout the process, this enabled the CMDPW to produce consistent acceptable color deviation (Average Printed ΔE (2000) = 2.978; SD = 0.437; Acceptable Threshold color deviation is ΔE (2000) ≤ 3.00).

Unemployment is one of the economic problems in Indonesia. Judging from the level of education that was completed there were unemployment from the level of college graduates. This encourages the level of competition in getting jobs to be more stringent, so that college graduates (bachelor of Statistics in IPB) must have the preparation of various factors to maintain the quality of their graduates. The quality of college graduates can be seen from the length of time waiting to get a job. This study aims to determine the influential factors in getting a job for graduates of the IPB Statistics degree, so that the CHAID method can be used in this study. The results of CHAID's analysis in this study in the form of tree diagrams using α = 10% explained that the factors influencing the waiting period variables were sex, internship, and the ability to master statistical software, where the accuracy value generated by the classification model was 79.3 %.

The study aimed to identify and compare the factors affecting health-related quality of life (HRQoL) depending on the occupational status of cancer survivors. This study was a secondary data analysis from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from 2014 to 2018. Hierarchical multivariate linear regression was used to investigate the factors affecting the HRQoL of each group. Non-working cancer survivors had significantly lower HRQoL than working cancer survivors (p < 0.001). A hierarchical multiple regression model showed that demographic, health-related, and psychological characteristics explained 62.0% of non-working cancer survivors’ HRQoL (F = 4.29, p < 0.001). Among the input variables, health-related characteristics were the most influential factors (ΔR2 = 0.274, F = 9.84, p < 0.001). For working cancer survivors, health-related characteristics were the only variable that was statistically associated with HRQoL (F = 5.556, p < 0.001). It is important to enhance physical activities and manage the chronic disease to improve the HRQoL of working cancer survivors. Further, managing health-related characteristics, including depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation, is necessary for non-working cancer survivors. Regarding working survivors, psychological factors such as depressive symptoms and suicidal tendencies did not affect HRQoL. Therefore, an early and effective return to work program should be developed for the improvement of their HRQoL.

The aim of this research is to investigate related effect of dyeability to linen textiles related to different printing parameters. The study investigated the change in color characteristics when printing on linen fabrics with an inkjet MIMAKI Tx400-1800D printer with pigmented TP 250 inks. The dependence of color reproduction on linen fabrics on the number of print head passes, number of ink layers to be coated, linen fabric density, and different types of linen fabric was investigated. All this affects the quality of print and its mechanical properties. The change in color characteristics on different types of linen fabrics was determined experimentally. We determine at which print settings the most accurate color reproduction can be achieved on different linen fabrics. The difference between the highest and the lowest possible number of head passages was investigated. The possibilities of reproducing different linen fabric colors were determined.

This paper proposes a novel high capacity servo press system with two servo motor inputs and high ratio force amplifier mechanism for metal forming. First, the press structure was expressed. The force amplifier was made of seven-bar mechanism which possesses quick-return character and high ratio force amplifier. The symmetric structure balanced the force in horizontal direction, and dispersed the forces on two transmission routes. In theoretical study of the new structure, kinematic and dynamic analyses were obtained by examining the geometry of the structure. The performance of press was discussed by example demonstration. Finally, the kinematic experiments and metal forming experiments were carried out on the prototype machine by using grating scale system. The measured data match the theoretical calculation well, which validates the feasibility of this new press mechanism.

For accurate and quantitative immunohistochemical localization of antigens it is crucial to know the solubility of tissue proteins and their degree of loss during processing. In this study we focused on the solubility of several cytoskeletal proteins in cat brain tissue at various ages and their loss during immunohistochemical procedures. We further examined whether fixation affected either solubility or immunocytochemical detectability of several cytoskeletal proteins. An assay was designed to measure the solubility of cytoskeletal proteins in cryostat sections. Quantity and quality of proteins lost or remaining in tissue were measured and analyzed by electrophoresis and immunoblots. Most microtubule proteins were found to be soluble in unfixed and alcohol fixed tissues. Furthermore, the microtubule proteins remaining in the tissue had a changed cellular distribution. In contrast, brain spectrin and all three neurofilament subunits were insoluble and remained in the tissue, allowing their immunocytochemical localization in alcohol-fixed tissue. Synapsin I, a protein associated with the spectrin cytoskeleton, was soluble, and aldehyde fixation is advised for its immunohistochemical localization. With aldehyde fixation, the immunoreactivity of some antibodies against neurofilament proteins was reduced in axons unveiling novel immunogenic sites in nuclei that may represent artifacts of fixation. In conclusion, protein solubility and the effects of fixation are influential factors in cytoskeletal immunohistochemistry, and should be considered before assessments for a quantitative distribution are made.
