Recently, in many reptiles (14 genera of turtles in five families), common characteristics of incubation temperatures are known to determine the sexes of hatchlings in many species of turtles, including the map turtles, painted turtles and snapping turtles, emys turtle, etc. According to many researcher's reports, in general, incubation at $25^{\circ}C$ (cooler temperatures) produces all or mostly males, however, incubation at $31^{\circ}C$ (higher temperatures) or higher produces all or mostly females. Exceptionally, even cooler temperature ($20^{\circ}C$) produce females, they produced all or mostly females. Accordingly, it is well-known that incubation temperature is the sex determining agent in these turtles. However, this paper presents study of the sex ratio and nest ecology in natural spawning nest: Observations on hatching sex ratios of eggs collected from natural nests of T. sinensis are similar to a previous report of the same genus Trionyx in the soft-shelled turtles. However, this genus (or species) showed some different phenomena to other kinds of turtles such as various kinds turtles mentioned above. After collection of naturally spawned eggs (17 eggs of T. sisnensis) on the natural nests, a laboratory experiment by the constant incubation temperatures was conducted with natural fluctuating soil temperatures in the natural nest with the soft-shelled turtle, T. sinensis. And also laboratory experiments were conducted using constant incubation temperatures of $25^{\circ}C$ (cooler temp.) and $30^{\circ}C$ (higher temp.) with the turtle, T. sinensis. Exceptionally, it was confirmed that the first and second incubation temperatures can't control sex-determination in the freshwater soft-shelled turtle, T. sinensis. The sex ratio approximated 1:1 (${\chi}^2=0.06$, P>0.05 (the Ist experiment). And the sex ratio approximated 1:1 independently of incubation temperature (${\chi}^2=0.33$, P>0.05 (the 2nd experiment). Consequently, temperature has no effect on sex determination in the genus Trionyx in a soft-shelled turtle.

In this study, non-stoichiometric 1-x$[(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})_{0.97}(Nb_{0.96}Sb_{0.04})O_3]$ + x $CeMnO_3$ + 0.8 mol%CuO + 0.2 wt% $Ag_2O$ (x=0, 0.005) ceramics were prepared by a conventional mixed oxide and carbonate method, their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated with the variations of sintering temperature. As $CeMnO_3$ substitution incereased, the density, piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) and dielectric constant($\varepsilon_r$) were increased and the mechanical quality factor(Qm) was decreased. At the sintering temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$, the density, electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$), dielectric constant($\varepsilon_r$) and piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) of 0.5mol% $CeMnO_3$ specimen showed the optimun values of 4.475 $g/cm^2$, 0.437, 552 and 166 pC/N, respectively. However, the mechanical quality factor($Q_m$) showed the minimum value of 380.

Background: In the present study, the age- and sex-adjusted Constant score (CS) in a normal Indian population was calculated and any differences with other population cohorts assessed. Methods: The study participants were patients who visited the outpatient department for problems other than shoulder and healthy volunteers from the local population. Patients without shoulder pain/discomfort during activity were included in the study. Subjects with any problem that might affect shoulder function (e.g., cervical, thoracic spine, rib cage deformity, inflammatory arthritis) were excluded. Constant scoring of all participants was performed by trained senior residents under the supervision of the senior faculty. Shoulder range of movement and strength were measured following recommendations given by the research and Development Committee of the European Society for Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (2008). A fixed spring balance was used for strength measurement; one end was fixed on the floor and the other end tied with a strap to the wrist of the participant, arm in 90° abduction in scapular plane with palm facing down. Results: Among the 248 subjects (496 shoulders), the average age was 37 years (range, 18-78 years), 65.7% were males (326 shoulders) and 34.3% females (170 shoulders). The mean CS was 84.6±2.9 (males, 86.1±3.0; females, 81.8±2.9). CS decreased significantly after 50 years of age in males and 40 years of age in females (p<0.05). The mean CS was lower than in previous studies for both males and females. Heavy occupation workers had higher mean CS (p<0.05). A linear standardized equation was estimated for calculating the adjusted CS for any age. Conclusions: Mean CS and its change with age differed from previous studies among various population cohorts.

The LC filter design procedure of the inverter output filter is described. The transfer function of the filter output voltage to the load current is described with the capacitor value and the system time constant considering the system controller. By using the closed form of the relation between the filter capacitor value and the system time constant, the capacitor value can be calculated with the given system time constant and vice versa. It is more practical for the implementation of power and control circuit of inverter. And as the effect of the load current to the voltage distortion can be calculated from the closed form, it is possible to analyze the system how much the voltage waveform is distorted in case of the nonlinear load. All the proposed design procedure is verified with the simulation and experimental results.

Due to advancements in power electronics and inverter topologies, the current controlled multilevel voltage-source pulse width modulated (PWM) inverter is usually preferred for accurate control, quick response and high dynamic performance. A multilevel topology approach is found to be best suited for overcoming many problems arising from the use of high power converters. This paper presents a comprehensive review and comparative study of several current control (CC) techniques for multilevel inverters with a special emphasis on various approaches of the hysteresis current controller. Since the hysteresis CC technique poses a problem of variable switching frequency, a ramp-comparator controller and a predictive controller to attain constant switching frequency are described along with its quantitative comparison. Furthermore, various methods have been reviewed to achieve hysteresis current control PWM with constant switching frequency operation. This paper complies various guidelines to choose a particular method suitable for application at a given power level, switching frequency and dynamic response.

Stability constant, composition of copper (II)-oxamidoxime complex were determined by spectrophotometric method. The ratio of copper (II) and oxamidoxime in the above complex was 1 : 1, and its stability constant was calculated to be $2.4{\times}10^{22}$. The complex solution gave constant absorbancy between the pH range of 4.5 to 6 at 600 $m{\mu}$ in which Beer's law applicable in the concentration range of 0.3 to 2.0 ppm studied in this work. It was noted that some metals such as Fe(III), Ni(II), Co(II), U(VI) interfere copper determination by this method.

The combustion characteristics, ignition delay, p-t, dp/dt, Q-t of diesel oil and fish oil blended diesel oils was investigated according to pressure and temperature in a constant volume combustion bomb. The results are as follows: 1) The influence of temperature and pressure on the ignition delay was almost constant in high temperature, regardless of the blending rates, and the ignition delay was shortest in the 60% blend. 2) The maximum pressure was high in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend. 3) The rate of pressure rise was high in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend. The rate of maximum pressure rise was significantly higher with pure diesel oil than with two blends. 4) The amount of accumulative heat release was large in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend.

A parallel-resonant converter with zero-voltage-switching, pulse-width-modulation(ZVS-PWM) control is proposed. Similar to the previously proposed series-resonant counterpart, it has a simple structure and can be controlled at a constant switching frequency using an active-clamp technique. The nearly constant current output characteristic of the parallel-resonant converter lends itself beneficially to precisely controlled constant current power supply applications. An experimental breadboard featured an accuracy of $\pm$1% for an output current of 2A, with an efficiency of 75%.
