Free vibration of non-uniform embedded nanoplates based on classical (Kirchhoff's) plate theory in conjunction with nonlocal elasticity theory has been studied. The nanoplate is assumed to be rested on two-parameter Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation. Non-uniform material properties of nanoplates have been considered by taking linear as well as quadratic variations of Young's modulus and density along the space coordinates. Detailed analysis has been reported for all possible casesof such variations. Trial functions denoting transverse deflection of the plate are expressed in simple algebraic polynomial forms. Application of the present method converts the problem into generalised eigen value problem. The study aims to investigate the effects of non-uniform parameter, elastic foundation, nonlocal parameter, boundary condition, aspect ratio and length of nanoplates on the frequency parameters. Three-dimensional mode shapes for some of the boundary conditions have also been illustrated. One may note that present method is easier to handle any sets of boundary conditions at the edges.

This study investigated trends in university students' acceptance of family diversity, familism, family strengths. Participants in this study were 388 university students (193 male, 195 female). The major findings were as follows: Respondents' recognition of family concept is modified from traditional family notion to modern conception. The general trends regarding the level of familism showed that males' level was higher than females'. The respondents' family strength was influenced by a blood permanency of father, family priority, reverence for parent and the tie that bind child, functional perceptions of family. The most important variable in terms of influence on university students' family strength was that of familism. These results implied that the familism was partly influential to family strengths.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of an insight-oriented nursing program on schizophrenic patients' insight, positive and negative syndromes, and depression. Method: A non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design was utilized. For this research, a total of 34 subjects were selected at a psychiatric hospital in Daegu during the period ranging from Oct. 1st, 2005 to Feb. 11th, 2006 (experimental group=17, control group=17). Result: After the treatment, between the experimental and control groups, there wasa significant difference in the level of SUMD(t=-4.52, p=.000) and positive syndrome(t=6.97, p=.013), but no significant difference in the negative syndrome(t=-1.81, p=.079) and depression(t=2.23, p=.145). Conclusion: The results of this study show that the insight-oriented nursing program works well for schizophrenic patients. Therefore, it is recommended that this program should be used in clinical practice as an effective nursing intervention for schizophrenic patients.

The through-thickness variations of strain and microstructure of high-speed hot rolled 1050 pure aluminum sheet were investigated. The specimens of 1050 aluminum were rolled at temperatures ranging from 410 to $560^{\circ}C$ at a rolling speed of 15 m/s without lubrication and quenched in water at an interval of 30ms after rolling. The redundant shear strain induced by high friction between rolls and the aluminum sheet was increased largely beneath the surface at a rolling reduction above 50%. Recrystallization occurred in the surface regions of the specimen rolled to reduction of 65% at $510^{\circ}C$, while only recovery occurred in the other regions.

The paper first proposes an empirical algorithm for detecting dust-loaded airmass observed by Sea Wide Field-of-view Scanner (SeaWiFS). The proposed dust index formula is based on the curvature of the spectral reflectance estimated from the SeaWiFS band 4 (510 nm band) through band 8 (865 nm band) data, assuming "clear ocean water" reflectance. Evaluation of the algorithm is made over several typical Asian dust images including the ones over the Pacific in April, 1998, when a major dust event was reported. The study analyzes the performance and the characteristics of the algorithm by comparing the satellite-derived dust index images with contemporaneous columnar concentration of dust particles predicted by a numerical dust transport model. The comparison reveals several small-scale differences although their dust distribution patterns show good agreement generally.

New random copolymers of phenylsilyl- and alkoxy-substituted phenylenevinylene, DMPS(9)-MEH(1)-PPV, DMPS(5)- MEH(5)-PPV and DMPS(1)-MEH(9)-PPV, have been synthesized by the Gilch dehydrohalogenation route, and the light-emitting properties of these polymers have been studied. The synthesized polymers were completely soluble in common organic solvents, and exhibited good thermal stability, almost up to $380^{\circ}C$. They showed UV-visible absorbance and photoluminescence (PL) in the ranges of 422-510 and 513-590 nm, respectively, according to their feed ratios. Electroluminescent devices were fabricated with these polymers as emitting layers, and ITO and Al as anode and cathode, respectively. DMPS(1)-MEH(9)-PPV, DMPS(5)-MEH(5)-PPV and DMPS(9)-MEH(1)-PPV exhibited EL emission maxima at 575 nm, 565 nm, and 541 nm, respectively.

ZnO crystals with a baseball bat shape were synthesized without any catalysts through a simple thermal oxidation of ZnS powder in alumina crucible under air atmosphere. SEM images demonstrated that the bat structure was composed of two pieces of ZnO crystals, i.e hexagonal-shaped rod and inverted cone-shaped rod. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern revealed that the ZnO crystals had wurtzite hexagonal structure. Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectrum showed that the ZnO was of high purity. A strong green emission peak at 510 nm was observed in cathodoluminescece spectrum.

The newly-found thiol peroxidases (TPx) with a conserved cysteine as the primary site of catalysis are capable of catalyzing the thiol-dependent reduction of peroxides. However, the cellular distributions of the isoforms remain poorly understood. As a first step in understanding the physiological functions of the TPx isoforms, we examined the cellular and tissue distribution of the isoenzymes in various bovine tissues. The tissue distributions of TPx isoenzymes indicate that two types of TPx are widely distributed throughout all of the tested tissues. These two forms are the predominant proteins, with levels of the proteins being quite different from each other. The level of predominant TPx proteins, named type II (TPx II) and type V (TPx V), appeared to be very different with respect to tissue type. The cellular distribution and level of TPx isoenzymes also varied with the types of cells. Immunoblot analysis of the mitochondrial and cytosol fractions from various tissues indicates that TPx III is a unique mitochondrial form. Based on the different tissue and cellular distribution of TPx isoenzymes, we discuss the physiological function of TPx isoenzymes, especially the ubiquitous TPx II.

ZnO crystals with octahedral shape were synthesized by thermal evaporation technique. $ZnF_2$ powder was used as the source material. The thermal evaporation and oxidation of $ZnF_2$ powder was carried out for 1 hr at $1,000^{\circ}C$ in air under atmospheric pressure. SEM images showed that the ZnO crystals produced by oxidizing $ZnF_2$ vapor possessed a characteristic octahedral shape. XRD spectrum revealed that the ZnO octahedron had hexagonal wurtzite structure. In the room temperature photoluminescence spectrum, a strong green emission peak at around 510 nm was observed.
