The stress distributions on a human mandible for 18 load cases under two different boundary conditions (mouth open and closed), using the three dimensional finite element modeling were studied. Also, the expected fracture loads for each load cases were calculated by using the Von-Mises yield criterion. The model of a mandible with all teeth was composed of 2402 hexahedron elements and 3698 nodes. CAD techniques were used to analyze the 3-dimensional results. The conclusions of this study were as follows: 1. In the mouth open state, the maximum stress occured at the condyle neck; when the lateral load was exerted, the maximum stress occured at the load side condyle. 2. In the mouth closed state, when the loads were exerted on the mandibular body and chin, the maximum stress occured at the loaded area, and when the loads were exerted on the angle and ramus, the maximum stress occured at the condyle neck. 3. The expected fracture loads in each load case were calculated using the Von-Mises yield criterion, and it was confirmed that the mandible in the mouth open state was more easily fractured than that in the mouth closed state, and the expected fracture loads are lesser in the cases that load direction is parallel at mandibular plane than 45°. 4. The magnitudes of the expected fracture loads increased in the order of angle, ramus, body and chin in case of the mouth closed state, while chin, body, angle and ramus in case of the mouth open state. 5. The Von-Mises stress concentration regions analyzed by F.E.M. corresponded well with the results of clinical studies.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is caused by X-linked recessive disorderliness. It induces severe anemia when a patient with G6PD deficiency is exposed to oxidative stress that occurs with administration of an antimalarial drug, primaquine. The distribution of G6PD deficiency remains unknown while primaquine has been used for malaria treatment in Myanmar. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of G6PD deficiency and its variants in Chin State, Myanmar. Among 322 participants, 18 (11 males and 7 females) demonstrated a G6PD deficiency. Orissa variant was dominant in the molecular analysis. This would be related to neighboring Indian and Bangladeshi population, in which Orissa variant was also reported as the main mutation type. The screening test for G6PD deficiency before primaquine treatment appears to be important in Myanmar.

In this study, two magnetic actuator models are chosen to interpret dynamic characteristics. First model has no permanent magnet, on the contrary second has magnet that hold plunger to keep steady state. Both models are dynamically analyzed according to input current, and also compared with spending time and magnetic force at that moving is finished.

The last four years of joint botanical collections by the governments of Myanmar and South Korea in Natma Taung National Park and adjacent areas in the Chin State of Myanmar have revealed the presence of 20 naturally occurring species of angiosperms new to the flora of Myanmar. Plants not previously recorded include species originally considered to be only found in neighboring mega-diverse countries. Examples (e.g., for India) include Boehmeria manipurensis Friis & Wilmot-Dear (Urticaceae), Trigonotis hookeri Benth. ex C. B. Clarke (Boraginaceae) and Mycetia radiciflora (C. B. Clarke) Airy Shaw (Rubiaceae); those for China include Microtoena delavayi Prain (Lamiaceae), Pimpinella kingdon-wardii H. Wolff (Apiaceae) and Senecio diversipinnus Y. Ling (Asteraceae). The data presented in this report are expected to be useful sources for phytogeographical studies of these species.

In this paper we shall give some decompositions derived from cyclic subautomata or neighborhoods of the automaton. Also we shall discuss some characterizations of cyclic automata when an automaton is maximal cyclic refinement. If m $\in$ M is totally reachable state, we shall see that {$mX^{\ast}$} is minimal.

Field work conducted in Natma Taung National Park, Chin State, Myanmar, in 2015 to make a checklist of lycophytes and ferns resulted in the discovery of four fern species not previously recorded in the flora of Myanmar. All occur in other countries in southeastern Asia, and in other tropical areas. The species are as follows: Adiantum monochlamys (Adiantaceae), Ctenitis decurrentipinnata (Dryopteridaceae), Pteris tripartita, and Paragymnopteris vestita (Pteridaceae). These findings will enable us to update the checklist of ferns of Myanmar.

A novel state of health estimation method for hybrid electric vehicle lithium battery using sliding mode observer has been presented. A simple R-C circuit method has been used for the lithium battery modeling for the reduced calculation time and system resources due to the simple matrix operations. The modeling errors of simple model are compensated by the sliding mode observer. The design methodology for state of health estimation using dual sliding mode observer has been presented in step by step. The structure of the proposed system is simple and easy to implement, but it shows robust control property against modeling errors and temperature variations. The convergence of proposed observer system has been proved by the Lyapunov inequality equation and the performance of system has been verified by the sequence of urban dynamometer driving schedule test. The test results show the proposed observer system has superior tracking performance with reduced calculation time under the real driving environments.
