The recent trend of higher output engines with more auxiliary parts is resulting in greater heat generation in the engine compartment. In order to maximize the heat dissipation and eliminate the inefficient flow in the engine compartment, it is necessary to understand the flow field under the hood. In this respect, experimental study as well as numerical analysis should be conducted. The automated measuring system was constructed to obtain three dimensional mean flow data with high accuracy. The measurements have been made on a vehicle with a steady incoming air flow. The result shows that there exists a high degree of non-uniformity in the mean flow velocity at the front of radiator.

ER clutch is a device using ER fluid, so called "intelligent material" and is a controlled system with electric field strength. Currently, the temperature of ER fluid increases and affects the performance of ER clutch when ER clutch is operating. This study was undertaken to estimate this performance variation due to temperature rise of ER fluid. An analytic heat transfer model of concentric cylinder type ER clutch was developed and with this model, effects of changing geometric, kinetic parameters of ER clutch and ER fluid properties were described. In conclusion, compared with neglecting thermal effects, a performance of ER clutch was very differential and for uniform performance of ER clutch, we have to improve thermal stability of ER fluid. ER fluid.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate psychological capital, sense of community and stress in relation to school adjustment and to identify factors influencing school adjustment in middle school students. Methods: This study population consisted of 150 middle school students. Data were analyzed using t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Results: The mean score for school adjustment in middle school students was 3.68 out of 5 points. School adjustment explained 34% of the variance in sense of community (${\beta}=.39$, p<.001), positive psychological capital (${\beta}=.35$, p<.001), academic performance (${\beta}=.26$, p<.001), and stress (${\beta}=-.21$, p<.001). Conclusion: The results of our research suggest that sense of community is an important variable influencing school adjustment in middle school students. Therefore, to promote school adjustment in middle school students, it is necessary to develop and implement active educational strategies promoting sense of community, positive psychological capital, academic perfomance, and controlling stress.

A ceramic floor with improved thermal conductivity and efficiency has been developed in this study. The new ceramic floor minimizes the shrinkage rate to below 0.07% and shows almost no cleavage. There is no need to repaire the ceramic floor because its bottom surface is flat. It especially shows an excellent perfomance in the test of a compressive strength ($300kg/cm^2$ based on 28 days), a flexural strength ($64kg/cm^2$ based on 28 days), and a convenient pressing. It is lighter than the present floor and it is expected to be applicable for a self-leveling ceramic motar in the residences and apartments. It shows an excellent character in the thermal conductivity and other physical properties compare to the present cement mortar.

Determination of xanthan gum as watersoluble-polymer in commercial cosmetic samples was carried out by High Perfomance Liquid Chromatography(HPLC). An $C_{18}$ reversed-phase column and the selected ELSD detector was applied. The 25mM ammonium acetate/acetonitrile was used for the mobile phase of gradient conditions. The analysis results of HPLC showed good linearity with correlation coefficient of $r^2=0.9993$ in the rage of $50.3{\sim}604.1{\mu}g/ml$ and detection limit of $12.0{\mu}g/ml$.

Purpose: This study seeks to bridge between the research by Lawrence (1999) and Retegan (1992), where the focus of TQM on his studies rests on customer satisfaction. Whereas in this study trying to recompile TQM by involving the variables Innovation and competitive advantage to stimulate managerial performance improvement where performance measurements include various measurements such as financial performance, marketing performance, and production performance in the property industry. Research design, data, and methodology: Total sample are 105 respondents coming from middle to top level of management in the property sector in Indonesia. To empirically prove the results of this study using multiply regression analysis as a test tool for analysis. Results and Findings: The results of this study confirm that TQM has a positive effect on market competition, innovation, and company performance indirectly. However, it does not have a significant impact if it is directly related to TQM on company performance. In this case, TQM for property companies in Indonesia would not have been possible without the role of innovation and market competition. So that the managerial implications of this study also confirm that TQM is essential and feels obligatory to be implemented optimally.

The objective of this paper is to investigate and analyze the behaviour of prestressed I section structural members constructed with ultra high perfomance steel fiber reinforced cementitious concrete (SFR-UHPC). This material is known as reactive powder concrete (RPC) mixed with domestic materials and its compressive strength is over 150MP. The parameters of test specimens were span to depth ratio, prestressing force, prestressing wire placement and web width. Most influential parameter to determine the failure mode between shear and flexural action was proved to be shear span ratio. The characteristics of ultra high-strength concrete is basically brittle, but due to the steel fiber reinforcement behaviour of this structure member became ductile after the peak load. As a result of the test, the stress block of compressive zone should be redefined. The proposed analytical calculation of internal force capacity based by plastic analysis gave a good prediction for the shear and flexural strength of specimens. The numerical verification of the finite element model which constitutive law developed for Mode I fracture of fiber reinforced concrete correctly captured the overall behaviour of the specimens tested.

The simultaneous analysis of sun screen agents in commercial cosmetic samples was carried out by High Perfomance Liquid Chromatography(HPLC). The cosmetic samples are directly dissolved in Tetrahydrofurane(THF) and filtered using $0.45{\mu}m$ filter. The water/methanol/THF was used for the mobile phase of gradient conditions. An Extend C18 reversed-phase column and the selected UV/Visible detector was applied. The analysis results of HPLC showed good linearity with correlation coefficient of $r^2$=0.9992 in the rage of $50{\sim}800{\mu}g/mL$ and detection limit of $0.01{\mu}g/mL$.

Chrysanthemum boreale Makino is widely distributed in Korea, China, Japan and Southeast Asian countries. C. boreale is one of the herbs used for treating various inflammatory diseases in oriental medicine. The present study was conducted to identify biologically active compounds from the leaves and stems of C. boreale. We isolated two sesquiterpene sactones from the leaves and stems of C. boreale using silica gel column chromatography and recyclic high perfomance liquid chromatography. The lactones were characterized by their spectroscopic data (NMR, IR, MASS). These compounds were subjected to Farnesyl Protein Transferase (FPTase) inhibition, Nitric Oxide (NO) release inhibition and apoptosis inhibition. The structur of the following isolated compound were elucidated 8,10-${\small{O}$-Acetyl-2-methoxy-10-hydroxy-3,11(13)-guaiadiene-12,6-olide and 4,10-dihydroxy-8-${\small{O}$-Acetyl-2,11(13)-guaiadiene-12,6-olide. In the NO release inhibition assay, compound 2 showed strong activities, with an $IC_{50}$ value of $7{\mu}g/mL$, whereas compound 1 did not exhibit significant activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of over $14{\mu}g/mL$ against murine macrophage.

A simple and practical method for the determination of caffeine in coffee, black tea and green tea was studied. The analysis of caffeine was performed by reverse phase high perfomance liquid chromatography using a ${\mu}-Bondapak$ C18 column at isocratic condition with methanol-acetic acid-water (20: 1: 79) on UV detector at 280 nm. The extraction and clean-up of caffeine in sample is based on combing a simple pretreatment with the use of a Sep-Pak Alumina A cartridge. The average recoveries of caffeine from several samples were 95.2 -101.3%, the relative standard deviation for the whole procedure was 0.10 ~ 0.62%, and the detection limit of caffeine in sample solution was about $0.1\;\mu\textrm{g}\;per\;ml$.
