Dense $4.25Co_{0.53}Fe_{0.47}-Al_{2}O_{3}$ composite was simultaneously synthesized and consolidated by pulsed current activated combustion method within 2 min from mechanically activated powders. Consolidation was accomplished under the combined effects of a pulsed current and mechanical pressure. Dense $4.25Co_{0.53}Fe_{0.47}-Al_{2}O_{3}$ with relative density of up to 96% was produced under simultaneous application of 80 MPa pressure and the pulsed current. Fracture toughness and hardness of the composite are $6MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ and $570kg/mm^{2}$ respectively.

A nanopowder of TiAl was synthesized by high energy ball milling. Dense nanostuctured TiAl was consolidated using a high frequency induction heated sintering method within 2 minutes from mechanically synthesized powders of TiAl and horizontally milled powders of Ti+Al. Properties of the TiAl obtained using the two methods were compared. The grain size and hardness of TiAl sintered from horizontally milled Ti+Al powders and high energy ball milled TiAl powder were 40 nm, 20 nm, and $630kg/mm^2$, $700kg/mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowder of TiCu was synthesized by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured TiCu was consolidated using a pulsed-current activated sintering method within 1 minute from mechanically synthesized powders of TiCu and horizontally milled powders of Ti+Cu. The grain size and hardness of the TiCu sintered from horizontally milled Ti+Cu powders and high-energy ball-milled TiCu powder were 68 nm, 27 nm and $490kg/mm^2$, $600kg/mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowders of Mo, Ta and Si were made by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured $MoSi_2-TaSi_2$ composite was sintered by the high-frequency induction heated combustion method within 2 minutes from mechanically activated powder of Mo, Ta and Si. A highly dense $MoSi_2-TaSi_2$ composite was produced under simultaneous application of a 80 MPa pressure and the induced current. Mechanical properties and microstucture were investigated. The hardness and fracture toughness of the $MoSi_2-TaSi_2$ composite were $1200kg/mm^2$ and $3.5MPa.m^{1/2}$, respectively. The mechanical properties were higher than those of monolithic $MoSi_2$.

NiTi powders were synthesized during high energy ball milling for 10 h. Highly dense nanostructured NiTi with a relative density of up to 99% was obtained within 1 minute by high frequency induction heated sintering under a pressure of 80 MPa. The grain size, microstructure, and mechanical properties of NiTi were investigated. The grain size and hardness of TiNi are about 122 nm and $590kg/mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowders of Mo, Ti and Si were made by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured $(Ti,Mo)Si_2$ compound was sintered by the pulsed current activated combustion method within two minutes from mechanically activated powder of Mo, Ti and Si. A highly dense $(Ti,Mo)Si_2$ compound was produced under simultaneous application of 80 MPa pressure and a pulsed current. The mechanical properties and micorostructure were investigated. The hardness and fracture toughness of the $(Ti,Mo)Si_2$ were $1030kg/mm^2$ and $4.9MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively. The mechanical properties were higher than monolithic $TiSi_2$.

This paper investgates the transflective liquid crystal displays (LCDs) associated with fringe-field switching (FFS) mode to achieve high image quality. In the past, several cell structures were used to fabricate transflective FFS LCDs. Their structures and characteristics are carefully examined to find their merits and demerits. In addition, we attempt to optimize cell parameters to achieve a single driving circuit.

Three known compounds, puerarol (1), pueroside B (2), and ononin (3), were isolated from an EtOAc-soluble fraction of the roots of Pueraria lobata. The isolates (1 - 3) were subjected to an in vitro bioassay to evaluate their inhibitory activity on the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Puerarol (1) exhibited a remarkable inhibitory activity on AGEs formation with $IC_{50}$ value of $2.05{\pm}0.32{\mu}M$ as compared with positive control, aminoguanidine ($IC_{50}$ value : $905.32{\pm}7.58{\mu}M$).

We have studied transflective liquid crystal displays (LCDs) associated with fringe-field switching (FFS) mode to achieve high image quality. In the past, several cell structures were used to fabricate transflective FFS liquid crystal display s. Their structures and characteristics are carefully examined to find their merits and cons. Further, optimization of cell parameters to achieve a single driving circuit is performed.

Three naphthopyrone glucosides, cassiaside (1), $rubrofusarin-6-O-{\beta}-D-gentiobioside$ (2), and $toralactone-9-O-{\beta}-D-gentiobioside$ (3), were isolated from the BuOH-soluble extract of the seeds of Cassia tora as active constituents, using an in vitro bioassay based on the inhibition of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) to monitor chromatographic fractionation. The structures of 1-3 were determined by spectroscopic data interpretation, particularly by extensive 1D and 2D NMR studies. All the isolates (1-3) were evaluated for the inhibitory activity on AGEs formation in vitro.
