  • The importance of quality control has been emphasized to maintain safety of patients and satisfaction of medical service with medical devices used in clinic. Accordingly, objective evaluation method and standards consistently has been brought up for demand to replace outdated medical devices in appropriate time and to maintain the quality of medical service. Though many studies made suggestions methods to determine what medical devices to be replaced first, these methods were difficult in practice for its complex evaluation criteria and long time to evaluate. Therefore, in this study, a simple evaluation method is developed to identify and prioritize medical devices that are ought to be replaced. For the development of this simple evaluation method, four major characteristics of technology, safety, finance, and user satisfaction, which are considered in clinics to evaluate medical device replacement, and 14 minor attributes are distinctively selected. Each characteristic is assessed in binary form of "YES" or "NO" to minimize its subjective nature. Using this method to evaluate sampled medical devices belonging to four different characteristics, devices are suggested to be replaced in the current financial year or in the following financial year, or re-evaluated by the end of this financial year. Such results of evaluation can amend the subjective nature of existing evaluation method and give objective standards more promptly.

  • The development of proxy caching is essential in the area of video-on-demand (VoD) to meet users' expectations. VoD requires high bandwidth and creates high traffic due to the nature of media. Many researchers have developed proxy caching models to reduce bandwidth consumption and traffic. Proxy caching keeps part of a media object to meet the viewing expectations of users without delay and provides interactive playback. If the caching is done continuously, the entire cache space will be exhausted at one stage. Hence, the proxy server must apply cache replacement policies to replace existing objects and allocate the cache space for the incoming objects. Researchers have developed many cache replacement policies by considering several parameters, such as recency, access frequency, cost of retrieval, and size of the object. In this paper, the Weighted-Rank Cache replacement Policy (WRCP) is proposed. This policy uses such parameters as access frequency, aging, and mean access gap ratio and such functions as size and cost of retrieval. The WRCP applies our previously developed proxy caching model, Hot-Point Proxy, at four levels of replacement, depending on the cache requirement. Simulation results show that the WRCP outperforms our earlier model, the Dual Cache Replacement Policy.

  • This study is the experiment for manufacturing the Lightweight non-cement matrix based on the blast furnace slag, paper ash. Materials like cement and blowing agent in foamed concrete is replaced by by-products fro blast furnace slag and paper ash. Further, the experiment was performed by replacing alkali with nature gypsum and α type gypsum by (0, 5, 10, 15, 20) of weight of alkali (wt.%) in order to reduce the amount of expensive alkali-activator. Consequently, in the case of the density, plain showed the lowest density and it seems that specimen adding nature gypsum 5% has the best compressive strength and flexural strength. It is detemined that the strength is lowered in accordance with the α type gypsum replacement ratio is higher. The research that it can supplement the further intensity seems to be needed.

  • This study aims to trace the response of twelve one-way sustainable concrete hollow-core slabs made by reducing cement content and using replacement of coarse aggregate by plastic aggregate. The trial mixes comprise the 25, 50, 75, and 100% replacement of natural coarse aggregate. The compressive strength of the resulting lightweight concrete with full replacement of coarse aggregate by plastic aggregate was 28 MPa. These slabs are considered to have a reduced dead weight due to using lightweight aggregate and due to reducing cross-section through using voids. The samples are tested under two verticals line loads. Several parameters are varied in this study such as; nature of coarse aggregate (natural or recycled), slab line load location, the shape of the core, core diameter, flexural reinforcement ratio, and thickness of the slab. Strain gauges are used in the present study to measure the strain of steel in each slab. The test samples were fourteen one-way reinforced concrete slabs. The slab's dimensions are (1000 mm), (600 mm), (200 mm), (length, width, and thickness). The change in the shape of the core from circular to square and the use of (100 mm) side length led to reducing the weight by about (46%). The cracking and ultimate strength is reduced by about (5%-6%) respectively. With similar values of deflection. The mode of failure will remain flexural. It is recognized that when the thickness of the slab changed from (200 mm to 175 mm) the result shows a reduction in cracking and ultimate strength by about (6% and 7%) respectively.

  • An experimental study was performed to examine the feasibility of using silicic wastes as construction materials for civil structures, and investigate its utility as a replacement for the favored nature resource to prevent the economic loss. In order to achieve this objective, mechnical properties of concrete containing silicic wastes is tested by investigating the strength development through parameters of water-binder ratios replacement 10 percent ratio with respect to curting conditions. The effect of stringth development is investigated for curing conditions when silicic wastes of 10 percent of cement-binder ratios is containde. Comparision on compressive strength of normal concrete and concrete containing silicic wastes at 28 day is conducted. The concrete with silicic wastes have larger compressive strength than of normal concrete by about 20 percent, when cured at 80 degree. The wastes concrete using silica sand shows increased strength, fracture toughness, elastic modulus and strain than the normal concrete, although the silicic wastes concrete could be able to satisfy the generally required strength for conventional concrete structures.

  • Rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the reactions of alkali metal ethoxides with 4-nitrophenyl benzoate, S-4-nitrophenyl thiobenzoate and 4-nitrophenyl thionbenzoate in ethanol at 25$^{\circ}$C. Substitution of S for O in the leaving group has not affected reactivity significantly, while the effect of the similar replacement in the acyl group has led to rate decrease by a factor of 10, although pronounced rate enhancements have been expected for both systems. The replacement of O by a polarizable S has also influenced the reactivity of the esters toward alkali metal ethoxides, i.e. the reactivity decreases as the size of the metal ion decreases. The alkali metal ions have showed inhibition effect instead of catalytic effect which would have been expected for the present system. The effect of replaced sulfur atom on the reactivity for the present system is attributed to the nature of hard and soft acids and bases.
