title: The perception of ideal body shape in Korean society

description: The purpose of this research is to explain the situation about the ideal body shape along with the perception towards the ideal body shape of South Koreans in contemporary society. The research was composed of two sections. The first part was the quantitative research by using the data of KGSS (Korea General Social Survey) collected in 2007 by Sungkyunkwan University. SPSS program was used as data analysis tool for this part of study. The second part was the qualitative research. The researcher went to South Korea and collected the data by using observation method. For the analysis, the researcher reviewed the researches, related articles, and advertisements from South Korean online newspapers web logs, and the observation which described the perception about the ideal body shape in South Korean thoughts in order to understand the ideal body shape situation through South Korean eyes. The research results found that the majority of South Koreans desire to lose their weights regardless of sex and age. South Korean preferred the slim body shape to the plump body shape, the former ideal body shape in Korean traditional society. Also, South Koreans both male and female have the idea that the ideal body shape can be one of the key success factors in achieving their goals besides the educational attainment and work ability.

title: The role of Vietnamese women during the Vietnam war

description: This thesis will emphasize on the contributions of the Vietnamese women towards the Vietnam War as represented in selected texts authored or co-authored by the Vietnamese women. Initially, it is found that women’s contributions in the Vietnam War do not showcase only what happened ‘during’ the war, but also how the war is affected by the aftermath of the contributions themselves. Moreover, the contributions of the Vietnamese Women are categorized by the socio-ideological differences between the North and the South. The materials chosen will determine the actuality of these distinguished contributions. It will also discuss how they are affected by the war, both during the wartime and in the postwar period. The objectives of the research are to examine the different aspects of Vietnamese women’s social roles and obligations during the Vietnam War and to investigate the influence of the Vietnam War on Vietnamese women. This research is qualitative in approach and employs the analysis of memoirs, literary texts, and historical data. A fieldwork observation was conducted at the Museum of Women in Hanoi, Vietnam. It is hoped that the findings of the research can give an answer to what extent the Vietnamese women have contributed to as well as their lives have affected by the Vietnam War.

title: Spectrometric analysis of mercury(II) ion using gold nanoparticles stabilized by dithia-diaza ligands

description: A novel method has been proposed to realize the visual and colorimetric detection of Hg(II) ions based on direct reduction of Au(III) solution to gold nanoparticle (AuNPs). Three dithia-diaza ligands: 3-AEPE, 4-AEBE and 5-AEPE, were synthesized and used as a stabilizer for preventing the aggregation of gold nanoparticles in the absence of Hg(II) ion, showing a rose-red color. In the presence of Hg(II) ion, gold nanoparticle stabilized by dithia-diaza ligand solution became purple and blue immediately when addition of reducing agent NaBH4. For spectrometric and naked eye detection, the suitable concentration of Au(III) solution, 3-AEPE, NaBH4 and Triton X-100 was 125 M, 0.3 mM, 0.6 mM and 0.1%(v/v), respectively. The suitable pH of 3-AEPE-stabilized gold nanoparticles was 1.4. By comparing with other metal ions, only Hg(II) ion can induce the aggregation of gold nanoparticles, resulting solution turns to blue rapidly. By measuring at a wavelength of 680 nm, absorbance values increased linearly as three levels of concentration of Hg(II) ion range of 0 - 1.25 M (low), 1.25 - 5.25 M (medium) and 2.25 - 10.0 M (high). The limit of detection was estimated to be 35 nM, with a relative standard deviation of 1.3% (n = 11). The acceptable recoveries of spiked samples were found in the range of 90.7 - 106.7%. Similarly, 4-AEBE and 5-AEPE ligands were able to stabilize gold nanoparticles from aggregation, but some conditions were slightly different, such as the concentration of 4-AEBE, 5-AEPE and NaBH4. However, among three dithi-diaza ligands, 3-AEPE provided the highest sensitivity and was more easily observed by naked eye. This method oﬀers advantages of simplicity, rapidity, cost eﬀectiveness and no requirement of any sophisticated instruments and it is alternatively possible method for Hg(II) monitoring in bottled drinking water. Moreover, this method has several potential advantages as optical sensor, especially no as-prepared AuNPs synthesis and shorter observation time.

title: ESTIMATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF DIESEL ENGINE VALVE CLEARANCE ON INTAKE MANIFOLD PRESSURE PULSATIONS
title: ОЦЕНКА ВЛИЯНИЯ ТЕПЛОВЫХ ЗАЗОРОВ ГАЗОРАСПРЕДЕЛИТЕЛЬНОГО МЕХАНИЗМА ДИЗЕЛЯ НА ПУЛЬСАЦИИ ВО ВПУСКНОМ КОЛЛЕКТОРЕ

description: The paper considers the infl uence of the out-of-adjustment degree of a D-240 diesel engine valve clearance on angular acceleration at the crankshaft speedup, fuel consumption and a type of absolute pressure waveform in the intake manifold. The laboratory bench includes: a D-240 diesel engine of an MTZ-82 tractor, a MotoDoc III engine tester with a low air pressure sensor and a fuel pipe pulse detector, a digital engine power indicator IMD-C, and digital fuel fl ow meter DFM-100. The nominal valve clearance of 0.25 mm was set for all valves. The experiment involved three phases (without valve clearance control, with  nominal valve clearance values and with valve clearance values much higher than nominal) and two variants: with a mounted and dismantled air fi lter. The nominal valve clearance values give better acceleration and fuel consumption, which can be caused
by both better air supply and the device inaccuracy. The waveforms obtained differ insignifi cantly, which can be attributed to their low practical utility for diagnosing the out-of-adjustment condition of valve clearances. However, the wider valve clearances cause an iterative echo vibration impulse, which is defi nitely related to impact processes in the valve mechanism. It has been experimentally proved that a method of analyzing vibro-acoustic waveforms of a running engine is more informative for detecting the considered defect.

title: The Stimulation of inflammatory cytokine release under hypoxic condition in human deciduous dental pulp cells

description: Objective: Oxygen plays an important role in signal transduction and regulation of cell behavior. The aim of this study was to investigate the response of SHED to hypoxia (2%O2) especially on the inflammatory cytokine release. Materials and methods: Dental pulp cells were obtained from exfoliated deciduous teeth. Cells were cultured and put under hypoxic condition (2%O2) for 6, 9, 12, and 15 hours. The number of cells was determined by metabolic assay (MTT assay). The changes in RNA expression were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and the amount of protein was measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Result: The results showed that 2% oxygen could significantly up-regulate IL-6 expression and secretion after 12 hours under hypoxia condition. Cobalt chloride (CoCl2) could also increase IL-6 secretion in a dose-dependent manner. Hypoxia could up-regulate Rex-1 expression and the use of IL-6 neutralizing antibody demonstrated the role of IL-6 in Rex-1 induction. Discussion: The data from this study suggested that the HIF-1α dependent up-regulation of IL-6 expression is a late response. The hypoxia-induced IL-6 can induce Rex-1 expression in SHED and may play a role in cell tissues repair or cell proliferation/ differentiation in response to the low oxygen environment.

title: Transmitting traditional Lanna music in the modern-day city of Chiang Mai

description: To study the transmission of traditional Lanna music in Chiang Mai, the urban center of northern Thailand. The first objective of this thesis is to provide a detailed record of the various ways traditional Lanna music is being passed on in the city of Chiang Mai. The second objective is to analyze the relationship between these different types of transmission and the spectrum of traditional and adapted styles of Lanna music in Chiang Mai. These objectives are addressed in this thesis through qualitative research. Interviews, observations and document research provide most of the information in this thesis. By corroborating the various accounts, the author has been able to present historical background on traditional Lanna music culture in Chiang Mai, followed by a detailed record of the different ways traditional Lanna music is currently passed on in the city. In reference to the first objective, it was determined that the activities for transmitting traditional Lanna music in Chiang Mai are both diverse and widespread. In considering the second objective, a non-causal link was observed between the increased variety of transmission - using such modern means as technology and formal classroom instruction - and the recent expansion of musical styles derived from traditional Lanna music. The final analysis presented in this thesis shows that the range of activities that transmit traditional Lanna music in Chiang Mai today can be organized on two scales: from informal to formal transmission, and from deliberate to incidental. At present, the main factor blurring the distinction between formal and informal transmission is the system of withayakon (lit. expert, in this case a teacher or accomplished musician/ensemble); the principle agent responsible for breaking down the division between deliberate and incidental transmission is technology. This research concludes that the traditional Lanna music environment in modern-day Chiang Mai is a diverse, vibrant and natural expression of Chiang Mai society today. The diversification of three key types of historical transmission - mukhapatha (master-pupil rote instruction), khru phak lak jam (observation and imitation) and transmission through music at events - show the extension in modern times of the foundations of traditional Lanna music transmission in Chiang Mai. This confirms that artists and academics have successfully found ways to incorporate traditional Lanna music into the living music culture of modern-day Chiang Mai.

title: The noun phrase structure in the Zhuang Dialect of Tian Deng

description: The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze the structure of noun phrase in the Zhuang dialect of Tian Deng. This study further aims at providing an in-depth study of the classifier system of Southern Zhuang, in order to establish whether noun classifiers can be regarded a distinct category from numeral classifiers, and whether they are involved in encoding definiteness. In order to meet these objectives, the analysis is based on naturalistic data collected during two months of fieldwork in the Dizhou village, Tiandeng County, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The findings are as follows. Modifiers come in three sub-types: quantifying modifiers, deictic modifiers, and attributive modifiers. Quantifiers primarily occur in prenominal position, as in Sinitic languages, and deictic and attributive modifiers in postnominal position, as in Tai languages. Although a classifier can occur with a noun in absence of any modifier, doubts remain as to the existence of a fully productive noun classifier system. Indeed, only the classifier tu4 ‘CLF:NON-HUMAN’ was found to routinely co-occur with a noun, both in citation form and in conversational data. At any rate, it can be established that it is not involved in encoding definiteness, though there is evidence supporting a correlation with specificity.

title: The new chronic kidney disease model and role of cytokine accumulation in the sepsis susceptibility of chronic kidney disease

description: Chronic kidney disease (CKD), the progressive worsening of kidney functon resulting from the decrease in nephron (functional kidney unit) number, leadng to end-stage renal failure and death. The 2 million end stage renal disease patients by 2010 plaes a substantial burden on global health care delivery systems. CKD was reported as an important prognostc factor in the patient with sepsis, CKD patients have a higher prevalence, severity and mortality of sepss compared with normal. Knowing the cause of immune compromised in CKD should ntiate better patient management. The study on sepsis in predisposng CKD should be more resemble human sepsis conditon and results n better opportunity of successful translation. We conducted the seres of experiments to initiate proper CKD model and use that model for sepsis studies. Concerning CKD in human definition, we could not find proper CKD model from prevous literatures. Then we established new modified kidney remnant model. We found this model in Cd-1 or 129 S3 but not C57BL/6 showed progressive worsening in kidney function (serum creatinine, glomerular filtration rate), histology, albuminuria, blood pressure and other comorbdity characters. The hypertension treatment by Olmesartan but not hydralazine reduced kidney fibrosis, in part, reciprocal to human condition. Additionaly, the resistance of C57BL/6 overcame by Angitensin II but not DOCA-salt hypertension. We proposed modified kidney remnant model in CD-1 and in C57BL/6 with Angiotensin II as a proper CKD models. Subsequently, we used this model in CD-1 in sepsis study. We found the accumulation of several cytokines followed kidney njury. However, HMGB1 but not VEGF of other cytokines in CKD causes spleen apoptosis and worsen sepsis condition. The anti HMGB1 treatment in sepss with pre- existing CKD but not in previously healthy mice was effective. In conclusion, we invented new proper CKD model and reported spontaneous spleen apoptoss after CKD. Then we found that HMGB1 is an important modulator for sepss severty in CKD. HMGB1 might be an nterestng treatment target in sepsis with pre-existng CKD.

title: Persistence and transmission of monness in beliefs and rituals : a case study of mons at Ko Kret, Changwat Nonthaburi

description: This thesis is to study the persistence and transmission of Monness in beliefs and rituals of the Mons at Ko Kret, Amphoe Pak Kret, Changwat Nonthaburi in the central part of Thailand. This thesis also attempts to identify Monness in present day ritual contexts, including transforming elements. Fieldwork was conducted during 2010-2011 in three Mon villages of Ko Kret: Village I (Ban Lat Kret), Village VI (Ban Sao Thong Thaung) and Village VII (Ban Ong Ang). The main methodologies employed were participant observation and interviewing the key informants, as well as the villagers. Data from the fieldwork indicates the persistence and transmission of Monness in three types of rituals: rites of passage, e.g., birth, adulthood, marriage and death; Buddhist rituals; and rituals related to spirits. Traditional elements remaining regarding rites of passage are few as a result of modernity and acculturation. However, concerning funeral rites, the practices still follow the old traditions, with some elements transformed to suit time and the present social conditions. Mon Buddhist rituals include, among others, Songkran, Tak Bat Nam Phueng, and Tak Bat Dok Mai Thoop Tien. At the same time, beliefs in ancestral spirits and guardian spirits have been retained and annual worship must be performed to show gratitude to such spirits for their protection. The analysis reveals that elements of Monness in present day ritual contexts can be traced through the arrangement of ritual spaces, ritual objects, musical instruments, songs, performing arts, costumes, ritual texts and ritual food. The last part of this thesis considers factors determining the transmission of Mon beliefs and rituals which are found to be involved with ethnic consciousness, the role of local leaders, the role of Mon people at Ko Kret, and the geographical features of Ko Kret. Finally, suggestions for further studies on Mons at Ko Kret are provided.

title: 26 November 2018 San Rafael HailPixel Survey Data and Analysis

description: The following collection is used to demonstrate the HailPixel survey technique as part of an AGU GRL publication. The following is an abstract for this paper: A new technique, named "HailPixel," is introduced for measuring the maximum dimension and intermediate dimension of hailstones from aerial imagery. The photogrammetry procedure applies a convolutional neural network for robust detection of hailstones against complex backgrounds and an edge detection method for measuring the shape of identified hailstones. This semi-automated technique is capable of measuring many thousands of hailstones within a single survey, which is several orders of magnitude larger than population sizes from existing sensors (e.g., a hail pad). Comparison with a co-located hail pad for an Argentinan hailstorm event demonstrates the larger population size of the HailPixel survey significantly improves the shape and tails of the observed hail size distribution. When hailfall is sparse, such as during large and giant hail events, the large survey area of this technique is especially advantageous for resolving the hail size distribution. The dataset contains the DEM and orthomosaic imagery, processing reports, final location of hail centroids, final measurements of hail major and minor axis, subset offsets and hail pad data. For more information applying the subset offsets to calculate the true position of the hail centroids please see the paper.

title: Multiple change-point autoregressive moving average model

description: This thesis presents a new method to obtain multiple change-points. These change-points are used in a Multiple Change-point AutoRegressive Moving Average (MARMA) model for a fluctuated time series prediction. A change-point is captured by using a sample reduction strategy. The statistical residual normality test is used to validate the change-point detection in our strategy. If the residual series is not normally distributed, the initial point will be removed until the residual series has normality or not enough sample is left. The in-sample dataset is selected from the dataset in the last cluster. In this framework, we examine one-step ahead prediction of an annual sunspot data between the year 1920 and 2008 and ten specific daily closing prices of Thai Stock Exchange, during the year of 2010 to 2012. These ten indices are ADVANC, AOT, BANPU, CPALL, DTAC, JAS, KBANK, LOXLEY, PTT and STANLY. The result of the multiple change-point autoregressive moving average models obtains a better performance than the threshold autoregressive models; the autoregressive integrated moving average models and the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models using R programming. The prediction accuracy is reported by the mean absolute error, root mean square error, mean absolute percentage error and mean square error.
