Geotechnical materials such as silt, fine sand, or coarse granular soils may be unstable under undrained shearing or during rainfall infiltration starting an unsaturated state. Some researches are available describing the instability of coarse granular soils in drained or undrained conditions. However, there is a need to investigate the instability mechanism of unsaturated silty soil considering the effect of degree of compaction and net confining stress under partially and fully drained conditions. The specimens in the current study are compacted at 65%, 75%, & 85% degree of compaction, confined at pressures of 60, 80 & 120 kPa, and tested in partially and fully drained conditions. The tests have been performed in two steps. In Step-I, the specimens were sheared in constant water content conditions (a type of partially drained test) to the maximum shear stress. In Step-II, shearing was carried in constant suction conditions (a type of fully undrained test) by keeping shear stress constant. At the start of Step-II, PWP was increased in steps to decrease matric suction (which was then kept constant) and start water infiltration. The test results showed that soil instability is affected much by variation in the degree of compaction and confining stresses. It is also observed that loose and medium dense soils are vulnerable to pre-failure instability i.e., instability occurs before reaching the failure state, whereas, instability in dense soils instigates together with the failure i.e., failure line (FL) and instability line (IL) are found to be unique.

This paper explores notable shifts in the restaurant startup market following the lifting of social distancing measures. Key trends identified include an escalated interest in startups, a heightened focus on the quality and diversity of food, a relative decline in the importance of delivery services, and a growing interest in specific industry sectors. The study's data collection spanned three years, from April 2021 to May 2023, encompassing the period before and after social distancing. Data were sourced from a range of online platforms, including blogs, news sites, cafes, web documents, and intellectual forums, provided by Naver, Daum, and Google. From this collected data, the top 50 words were identified through a refinement process. The analysis was structured around the social distancing application period, comparing data from April 2021 to April 2022 with data from May 2022 to May 2023. These observed trend changes provide founders with valuable insights to seize new market opportunities and formulate effective startup strategies. In summary, We offer crucial insights for founders, enabling them to comprehend the evolving dynamics in food service startups and to adapt their strategies to the current market environment.

In recent years, entrepreneurship has become a significant movement in Vietnam. Vietnamese youth has paid more attention on entrepreneurship. Local brand fashion is currently booming in Vietnam. Many young Vietnamese choose to start up in local brand fashion. Vietnamese government has show strong commitment to support entrepreneurial movement among young people. Purpose: The research focused on assessing the determinants of entrepreneurial intentions in local brands fashion in Vietnam. Research design, data and methodology: The sample size consist of 293 young Vietnamese who are passionate on starting up their business in fashion. The research method employ Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and SPSS software is used to analysze the collected data. Data collection involved a mixed-methods approach, combining surveys and case studies. Results: The research findings confirm the determinants of entrepreneurial intentions in local brand fashions are Attitude towards behavior, Subjective norms, Cognitive behavioral control, Entrepreneurship education, and Capital. Conclusion: The study not only delved into the influencing elements for starting a business but also examined the current landscape of the youth-oriented local fashion brand market. Managerial implications are provided to promote entrepreneurial intention among young Vietnamese in fashion industry. Limitations and further research are also discussed to provide recommended research directions for future studies.

Station blackout (SBO) risk is one of the most significant contributors to nuclear power plant risk. In this paper, the sequence probability formulas derived by the convolution approach are compared with those derived by the conventional event tree/fault tree (ET/FT) approach for the SBO situation in which emergency diesel generators fail to start. The comparison identifies what makes the ET/FT approach more conservative and raises the issue regarding the mission time of a turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump (TDP), which suggests a possible modeling improvement in the ET/FT approach. Monte Carlo simulations with up-to-date component reliability data validate the convolution approach. The sequence probability of an alternative alternating current diesel generator (AAC DG) failing to start and the TDP failing to operate owing to battery depletion contributes most to the SBO risk. The probability overestimation of the scenario in which the AAC DG fails to run and the TDP fails to operate owing to battery depletion contributes most to the SBO risk overestimation determined by the ET/FT approach. The modification of the TDP mission time renders the sequence probabilities determined by the ET/FT approach more consistent with those determined by the convolution approach.

This paper is suggested an optimal switching angle of a switched reluctance motor drive system for maximum energy ratio. A new magnetizing method with a low-frequency increasing the energy conversion ratio that is related to the efficiency of motor is proposed As results, it improves the efficiency about 2[$\%$]. And a torque ripple is also reduced compared with that of the conventional switching angle magnetizing approach. In order to start softly regardless of a large ripple torque, the profile of phase current is predicted and current control mode was adapted when it is operated under the starting speed.

In this paper, for the development of a safe and reliable DC home appliance suitable for DC home power supply system, we classified a number of inherent problems with help of the comparative analysis of existing AC and new DC home appliance. Several new technical problems of DC home appliances are mainly linked to the DC transient state. Among them, this paper concentrates on start-up inrush current problem, uni-polarity problem, and heavy DC load control problem. And to address these problems, we herein present an implementation of robust safety circuits for DC home appliances. Specifically, we investigate several multi-circuit countermeasures and select the best among them through comparative evaluation, based on theoretical, simulational, and experimental results.

The goal of this paper is optimal switching angle of switched reluctance motor drive system for maximum energy ratio. A new magnetizing method with a low-frequency increasing the energy conversion ratio that is related to the efficiency of motor is proposed. As results, it improved the efficiency about $2[\%]$. And a torque ripple is also sufficiently reduced compared with that of the conventional switching angle magnetizing approach. In order to start softly regardless of a large ripple torque, the profile of phase current is predicted by the ANFIS, and current control mode was adapted when it is operated under the starting speed. Variable implementations on the fields will guarantee the more practical drive system.

Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM) is rotated by reluctance force generated between rotor pole and stator pole. So SRM must be switched by exciting current according to rotor position. but SRM takes the advantages of high speed driving and very simple structure. The single phase SRM can not be start by itself and torque ripple is generated more than multi-phase SRM. But mechanical structure and driver is simpler than multi-phase SRM. The single phase SRM driver is composed with the absolute encoder and DSP to control exciting section and current, and is supplied by constant voltage. So The paper is intend to measure the speed charactrer of double silent pole type SRM by using the unipolar driving curcuit.
