According to Transactional Distance Theory (TDT), which is defined as understanding the effects of distance learning in the cognitive domain, the current study constructs a theoretical framework to measure student satisfaction and Bloom's Taxonomy Theory (BTT) to measure students' academic achievements. This study aims to evaluate and identify the possible cognitive capacity influencing K-12 students' academic achievements and satisfaction with modular distance learning during this new phenomenon.

Nevertheless, a previous study on the artificial kidney has paid little attention to the optimization of factors and levels for reducing the solidification of the artificial kidney during the hemodialysis procedure. Thus, this study proposes an integrated model that uses the Taguchi method, omega formula, and back-propagation network to determine the optimal factors and levels for addressing this issue.

Root mean square values of muscular electromyographic signals indicated that the shape of foil handles significantly influenced distribution of working strength of each muscle group. Use of the Pistol-Viscounti type of foil handle showed better distribution of strength among the 5 muscle groups than did other types of foils.
