工業環境中揮發性有機化合物(VOCs)的洩漏不僅危害人體健康，更可能導致工安事故。現有氣體感測器常存在選擇性低、反應時間長等限制。本研究開發高選擇性與快速反應的奈米材料導電式氣體感測器，以實現即時監測。 研究中合成並測試六種銀奈米 (Ag-MPC)材料：Ag@C6、Ag@C12、Ag@C16、Ag@MCP、Ag@C12/MCP及Ag@C12/MBT複合材料。在500-5000 ppm濃度範圍內偵測1-丁醇、正辛烷及間二甲苯等目標氣體的電阻變化。實驗結果顯示，Ag@C12經官能基修飾後，對1-丁醇具有明顯的選擇性。我們開發基於Arduino微控制器的即時監測系統，透過運算放大器電路實現高精度的電阻變化檢測。可以在工業環境中持續監測VOCs濃度並即時示警。未來將著重於優化訊號放大電路、開發新型官能基修飾材料、實現複雜氣體混合物的組分分析。開發成本低、反應快、選擇性好的感測系統，為工業安全監測領域提供實際應用價值。

The country of Nepal, although beautiful, is facing many challenges due to its geography, lying between the towering Himalayas and the vast plains of Terai. The narrow mountain roads, prone to landslides and poor infrastructure, often result in frequent accidents. This situation is worsened by the delayed emergency response, as accidents are often reported much later than the time they occur. In the past ten years, over 15 major bus accidents have killed hundreds of people, and in 2024 alone, more than 80 deaths were reported. In response, the "Third Life" project was developed to improve emergency response time and save lives.The project has two main components: first, a device equipped with GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), a GPS module (Global Positioning System), a gyroscopic sensor, and a microcontroller to detect accidents in real-time within seconds of the incident. Second, once an accident is detected, live coordinates are sent directly to emergency services and police stations for immediate assistance.This project is not only vital for Nepal but also for countries with similar terrain and infrastructure challenges. The "Third Life" project aims to save many lives that are lost due to delayed reporting, ensuring quicker emergency responses.A tragic example of this was the 2024 Trishuli bus accident, where many lives were lost when the bus plunged into the river. To date, the bus has not been recovered. Our project aims to create a waterproof device that, when connected to a satellite, will send live coordinates to emergency services, ensuring 100% reliability. This device could help locate the bus, which is still missing, within seconds.Ultimately, this initiative offers more than just safety it restores peace of mind and hope for the families of victims, providing them with a chance for a better future despite the tragedy.

By fostering collaboration with municipalities and insurance companies, Safe CrossWalk aims to transform urban mobility, saving lives and creating smarter, safer cities.

原始生命的形成被推論是由化學分子透過自發性化學反應組成簡單的代謝路徑，再由這些路徑組合成為複雜的代謝網絡，最終形成原始的生命。由於自營性的代謝路徑可將無機性的CO₂固定為有機物可謂形成生命的前提，因此推論在自營性微生物所擁有的一種生物固碳路徑，可將CO₂固定進入三羧酸循環的「逆向三羧酸循環」被認為是原始細胞最初形成的代謝路徑之一。然而，以化學反應的自由能考量，自2-Oxoglutarate到Isocitrate 此固碳反應並非自發性反應，並由異檸檬酸脫氫酶催化。異檸檬酸脫氫酶在逆三羧酸循環中是決定固碳反應速率的關鍵酵素之一，在當今正向三羧酸循環中亦具重要的調節細胞能量代謝的功能。有鑑於此，本研究探討源自古老地球環境的嗜熱自營菌Aquifex aeolicus 中異檸檬酸脫氫酶的酵素性質，並期待本研究成果對生命起源的探究及發展新穎固碳技術能有所助益。

本研究從2022年APMO第五題的代數題目出發，題目為a1,a2,a3,a4∈ℝ，(4∑k=1)ak2=1，試求出(a4-a1)(3∏k=1)(ak-ak+1)的最小值。我們希望將原問題的四個未知數，希望推廣到n個未知數的通解。我們首先用算幾不等式及其他幾何性質算出了n=2~4的解，其中包括了偏微分求切平面的方法。在研究n的未知數的通解時，我們利用實數的完備性說明最小值一定存在，接著我們利用舉例以及反證法，發現到n個未知數時其最小值會小於0，以及最小值成立時各項相加會等於0，我們運用這些特別的性質，並且使用了各種不等式得出n=2(mod4)的通解。最後我們用拉格朗日乘數可以求出n=k(mod2k)的局部最小值，還有部分相加與相減的關聯性，未來希望能求出絕對的最小值和最大值。

本文研究了一個信息完全公開的組合遊戲，探討當一群人被完全隨機的分配到模型裡時，其初始位置與特定位置所形成的包圍關係，並探討最佳的人力分配。本研究通過座標解析與不等關係的代數運算等方法，成功找出獲勝條件對於遊戲雙方的限制，並進一步解決問題。在研究的過程中，也將結論擴展到不同模型，探討不同模型對於遊戲造成的影響，並比較其結論有何區別。

sRNA在各種物種的精子功能中起著至關重要的作用。在秀麗隱桿線中，當缺少精子相關的sRNA「ALG-3/4 26G sRNA」會導致其在25度時不孕。此外，IFE-1是人類真核轉譯起始因子EIF4E的直系同源基因，主要表達於雄性生殖細胞系統中。在先前研究中我們觀察到當「真核轉譯起始因子IFE-1有缺陷」或「精子缺少相關sRNA」時，亦會導致精子具有缺陷。由於三者的相似性，我們認為IFE-1和26G sRNA的生成路徑有關。因此我們假設IFE-1參與協助酵素NYN-3辨認並切割msd-1 mRNA模板後促進26G sRNA生成。我們使用Western Blot、IP、螢光顯微鏡等方法，探討了IFE-1和MSD-1::GFP的關係，發現在ife-1正常的情況下，高溫對於MSD-1::GFP的表現量沒有影響。並且因該蛋白只表現在公蟲精子，我們可以推論msd-1:gfp 只作用於公蟲精子。而此疑似可正向調控基因表現的26G sRNA，有望發展成有別於過往sRNA藥物抑制基因表現的一種新基因治療方法。

在現今社會，個人越來越依賴自主學習以提升技能和知識，而舞蹈學習尤其受到關注。然而，在沒有專業指導的情況下，學員往往難以掌握舞蹈動作的細節，也難以清楚地評估自己的表現與標準示範之間的差距。 為了應對這一挑戰，本研究利用人體姿態識別演算法OpenPose，捕捉舞蹈者的關節點。通過這項技術，針對舞蹈的標準動作、力度、流暢度等方面，成功地開發出一款自動評分系統。 通過人體姿態識別技術，我們能夠深入分析舞蹈動作的細節，讓學員與標準舞蹈動作進行比較，以確認學習上的差異。我們希望通過這項研究，學員能在沒有專業指導的情況下，利用網路平台創建更有效且有趣的自主學習環境。

On average, the agricultural sector uses 70% of water withdrawals worldwide to produce crops1 and contributes to the eutrophication of lakes by using nutrients that are leached from the soils into lakes and reservoirs2. Vertical farming has great potential to remedy some of these issues. By growing plants vertically in controlled environments with artificial light and reusing the water, vertical farms use op to 99% less water3 and can produce up to 10 times the yield per square meter4 compared to traditional greenhouses. This improved efficiency comes at a cost; on average, vertical farms use more than 600% more energy per kilogramme of crop compared to traditional greenhouses5. 55% of this energy use is due to the use of artificial lighting6. Even though a lot of research is conducted on yield optimisation of crops in vertical farming, few research articles focus on the growth efficiency of crops to reduce the energy use in vertical farms. Only a few previous studies have tested photoperiods under 10 h·d-1. This study focuses on reducing the energy costs of light use in vertical farms by finding the photoperiod with highest energy use efficiency for the leafy vegetable arugula (eruca sativa). Energy use efficiency is defined as fresh mass per unit of electricity input (measured in kWh). In this study, arugula plants were exposed to LED growth light, with photoperiods ranging from 0 h·d-1 to 24 h·d-1 (0 h·d-1, 4 h·d-1, 7 h·d-1, 9 h·d-1, 12 h·d-1, 14 h·d-1, 16 h·d-1 and 24 h·d-1) and a PPFD of 800 μmol·m-2·s-1. The photoperiod 7 h·d-1 had the highest energy use efficiency of all photoperiods and, if used in vertical farms, this could account for approximately a 10 percent decrease in energy per kilogramme used in vertical farms (a 4 kWh decrease), with the planting density of 1400 plants per m2. This could amount to a yearly energy saving of 4,000,000 kWh per vertical farm (based on the yearly harvest of the vertical farm Nordic Harvest). This could help make vertical farming a more sustainable plant production for the future and in turn, help farming protect our water resources instead of consuming and polluting.

Viruses Both enveloped and non-enveloped viruses conceal their membrane-penetrating peptide, usually within a glycoprotein of the virion membrane, inside the coat, or within the virion lumen. Cellular signals expose membrane-penetrating peptides that influence the virus during its entry. Instances of cellular signals regulating virus entry include receptors, enzymes, and substances like proteases, metal ions, and reducing agents. Recently, motor proteins or virus maturation have been seen to regulate virus entry through mechanical processes.
