The purpose of this paper is to introduce an L-metrical non-linear connection $N_j^{*i}$ and investigate a conformal change in the Finsler space with $({\alpha},\;{\beta})-metric$. The (v)h-torsion and (v)hvtorsion in the Finsler space with L-metrical connection $F{\Gamma}^*$ are obtained. The conformal invariant connection and conformal invariant curvature are found in the above Finsler space.

The ($\alpha$,$\beta$)-metric is a Finsler metric which is constructed from a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a differential 1-from $\beta$;it has been sometimes treated in theoretical physics. The condition for a Finsler space with an ($\alpha$,$\beta$)-metric L($\alpha$,$\beta$) to be projectively flat was given by Matsumoto [11]. The present paper is devoted to studying the condition for a Finsler space with L=$\alpha$\ulcorner$\beta$\ulcorner or L=$\alpha$+$\beta$\ulcorner/$\alpha$ to be projectively flat on the basis of Matsumoto`s results.

This paper presents the experimental results on the strength behavior and failure modes of box beam-to-circular column connections in steel piers. Previous research introduced parameters such as joint central angles, extension of horizontal stiffeners, and use of equivalent web depth, which ignored strength behavior and failure modes of box beam-to-circular column connections. The use of equivalent web depth $d_2$ is not reasonable when central angle ${\alpha}$ is closer to $90^{\circ}$; therefore, a monotonic loading test has been performed for eight connection specimens. From the test, it is identified that the connection with the circular column is stronger than the connection with the box-sectioned substitution column. Also, the strength of the beam-to-column connections with horizontal stiffeners is higher than the one of the no column stiffeners. The concrete-filled effect of box beam-to-circular column connection is also investigated, and the experimental yield strength of the connection is compared with the theoretical one. Also, more a reasonable equivalent web depth is suggested. The failure modes of connection are clearly defined.

In this paper, we establish a number system in $R^n$ which arises from a Haar wavelet basis in connection with decompositions of certain Cuntz algebra representations on $L^2$( $R^n$). Number systems in $R^n$ are also of independent interest [9]. We study radix-representations of $\chi$ $\in$ $R^n$: $\chi$:$\alpha$$_{ι}$ $\alpha$$_{ι-1}$…$\alpha$$_1$$\alpha$$_{0}$ ㆍ$\alpha$$_{-1}$ $\alpha$$_{-2}$ … as $\chi$= $M^{ι}$$\alpha$$_{ι}$ $\alpha$＋…M$\alpha$$_1$＋$\alpha$$_{0}$ ＋ $M^{-1}$ $\alpha$$_{-1}$ ＋ $M^{-2}$ $\alpha$$_{-2}$ ＋… where each $\alpha$$_{k}$ $\in$ D, and D is some specified digit set. Our analysis uses iteration techniques of a number-theoretic flavor. The view-point is a dual one which we term fractals in the large vs. fractals in the small,illustrating the number theory of integral lattice points vs. fractions.s vs. fractions.

PURPOSE. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between microleakage and screw loosening at different types of implant-abutment connections and/or geometries measuring the torque values before and after the leakage tests. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three different abutment types (Intenal hex titanium, internal hex zirconium, morse tapered titanium) with different geometries were connected to its own implant fixture. All the abutments were tightened with a standard torque value then the composition was connected to the modified fluid filtration system. After the measurements of leakage removal torque values were re-measured. Kruskal-wallis test was performed for non-parametric and one-way ANOVA was performed for parametric data. The correlation was evaluated using Spearman Correlation Test (${\alpha}=0.05$). RESULTS. Significantly higher microleakage was found at the connection of implant-internal hex zirconium abutment. Observed mean torque value loss was also significantly higher than other connection geometries. Spearman tests revealed a significant correlation between microleakage and screw loosening. CONCLUSION. Microleakage may provoke screw loosening. Removing torque values rationally decrease with the increase of microleakage.

This research focuses on determining the impact of human resource management activities on the compatibility and work results of employees of Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE) listed companies. The paper includes five parts: introduction, literature review, research methodology, research results, and conclusion and policy implications. The data are collected from the survey of 350 listed companies in HOSE, in which 315 survey notes filled with sufficient information are used for analysis. The paper employs both qualitative method and quantitative method. Group discussion of 10 experts is for qualitative research. Quantitative method performs analysis of Statistics, Cronbach's Alpha, EFA analysis, CFA analysis and SEM model. The results of the research clearly indicate that human resource management (HRM) activities are measured through improving the ability, improving the motivation and improving the opportunity. While compatibility is measured through suitability, connection and sacrifice; whereby HRM activities of ability improvement have a positive effect on the job suitability and connection; HRM activities of motivation improvement have a positive effect on the job suitability, connection and sacrifice; and HRM activities of opportunity improvement have a positive effect on the job suitability, sacrifice and connection; Finally, the job suitability, sacrifice and connection positively affect the work results of employees.

PURPOSE. This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effect of implant connection design (external vs. internal) on the fit discrepancy and torque loss of zirconia and titanium abutments. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Two regular platform dental implants, one with external connection ($Br{\aa}nemark$, Nobel Biocare AB) and the other with internal connection (Noble Replace, Nobel Biocare AB), were selected. Seven titanium and seven customized zirconia abutments were used for each connection design. Measurements of geometry, marginal discrepancy, and rotational freedom were done using video measuring machine. To measure the torque loss, each abutment was torqued to 35 Ncm and then opened by means of a digital torque wrench. Data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA and t-test at ${\alpha}=0.05$ of significance. RESULTS. There were significant differences in the geometrical measurements and rotational freedom between abutments of two connection groups (P<.001). Also, the results showed significant differences between titanium abutments of internal and external connection implants in terms of rotational freedom (P<.001). Not only customized internal abutments but also customized external abutments did not have the exact geometry of prefabricated abutments (P<.001). However, neither connection type (P=.15) nor abutment material (P=.38) affected torque loss. CONCLUSION. Abutments with internal connection showed less rotational freedom. However, better marginal fit was observed in externally connected abutments. Also, customized abutments with either connection could not duplicate the exact geometry of their corresponding prefabricated abutment. However, neither abutment connection nor material affected torque loss values.

In connection with the studies for developing new enzymes that could be useful in organic synthesis, practical preparation of racemic and enantiopure forms of ${\gamma}$-hydroxy-${\alpha}$-keto acids has been successfully achieved. For racemic form of ${\gamma}$-hydroxy-${\alpha}$-keto acids, indium-mediated allylation of aldehydes with 2-(bromomethyl)acrylic acid has been employed as a key step. Oxidative cleavage of the thus formed 2-methylenebutyrolactones provided the desired ${\alpha}$-ketobutyrolactones. Enzymatic resolution of the ${\gamma}$-hydroxy-${\alpha}$-methylene esters provided the desired${\gamma}$-hydroxy-${\alpha}$-methylene acids which were successfully converted to ${\gamma}$-hydroxy-${\alpha}$-ketobutyrolactones in optically pure forms.

Mesenchymal cells from the leg buds of stage 24-chick embryos differentiated into chondrocytes when plated at high density. Treatment of high density micromass culture of chick mesenchymal cells with cytochalasin D(CD, 2 $\mu$M for 24 h) resulted in inhibition of chondrogenesis. CD treatment was found to affect the expression of the contractile protein $\alpha$-smooth muscle actin ($\alpha$-SM actin). In control cultures, $\alpha$-SM actin uniformly expressed from culture day 2, but the CD-treated cells induced expression of $\alpha$-SM actin from the first day of culture followed by a continuous increase. Expression of pan-cadherin (P-cadherin) decreased as chondrogenesis proceeded in the control culture, whereas the CD-treated cells showed sustained expression. These results propose a close connection of chondrogenic differentiation with expression of $\alpha$-SM actin and P-cadherin.
