  • The $Ag/TiO_{2-x}N_x$ nanoparticles were synthesized by photochemical deposition in a $TiO_{2-X}N_X$ suspension system. The prepared products were characterized by means of XRD, Uv-vis and photoluminescence spectra (PL). Its photocatalytic activity was investigated by the decomposition of methylene blue (MB) solution under illumination of visible and ultraviolet light, respectively. Compared to $TiO_{2-x}N_x$, the photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared $Ag/TiO_{2-x}N_x$ is obviously enhanced due to the decreasing recombination of a photoexcitated electron-hole pairs. The Mechanism in which photocatalytic activity is enhanced has been discussed in detail.

  • Students taking linear model courses have difficulty in determining which parametric functions are estimable when the design matrix of a linear model is rank deficient. In this note a special form of estimable functions is presented with a linear combination of some orthogonal estimable functions. Here, the orthogonality means the least squares estimators of the estimable functions are uncorrelated and have the same variance. The number of the orthogonal estimable functions composing the special form is equal to the rank of the design matrix. The orthogonal estimable functions can be easily obtained through the singular value decomposition of the design matrix.

  • The purpose of this study is to explore a characteristic for raising the percentage of employment of the special high-school. And consider the specialization concept appearing on the stage as these means and analysis the actual operation condition. There are various of the major cause factors of the special high-school and these factors were judged on having a negative effect of raising the percentage of employment of the special high-school. Also, the study were suggested various improvement plan for minimizing negative effect of these factors. Based on the findings, the study showed that grasp the situation of the special high-school and improving plan and present the political plan.

  • A new model-based clustering algorithm is proposed. The idea starts from the assumption that observations are realizations of Gaussian processes and so are correlated. With a special covariance structure, the posterior probability that an observation belongs to each cluster is computed using the ECM algorithm. A preliminary result of small-scale simulation study is given to compare with the k-means clustering algorithms.

  • We show how some interesting results involving series summation and the digamma function are established by means of Riemann-Liouville operator of fractional calculus. We derive the relation $$ \frac{\Gamma(\lambda)}{\Gamma(\nu)} \sum^{\infty}_{n=1}{\frac{\Gamma(\nu+n)}{n\Gamma(\lambda+n)}_{p+2}F_{p+1}(a_1, \cdots, a_{p+1},\lambda + n; x/a)} = \sum^{\infty}_{k=0}{\frac{(a_1)_k \cdots (a_{(p+1)}{(b_1)_k \cdots (b_p)_k K!} (\frac{x}{a})^k [\psi(\lambda + k) - \psi(\lambda - \nu + k)]}, Re(\lambda) > Re(\nu) \geq 0 $$ and explain some special cases.

  • Fisher Linear Discriminant(FLD) is a sample and intuitive linear feature extraction method in pattern recognition. But in some special cases, such as un-separable case, one class data dispersed into several clustering case, FLD doesn't work well. In this paper, a new discriminant named K-means Fisher Linear Discriminant, which combines FLD with K-means clustering is proposed. It could deal with this case efficiently, not only possess FLD's global-view merit, but also K-means' local-view property. Finally, the simulation results also demonstrate its advantage against K-means and FLD individually.

  • This paper examines how costume, as a means of communication, acts on an individual a society, and a nation by analyzing especially the costume-wearing activities of Gandhi, an Indian national leader, in the nineteenth-century India colonized by Britain. The results are as follows. 1. Change of costume in Gandhi's case corresponds with mental change. 2. Gandhi's costume-wearing activities show his social status. 3. Gandhi's costume acts as a means of communication ; it manipulates and rules social events, transforming social -political identities. Thus, costume has a close relation to man's life. And it is an important means of communication influencing man and man's environments.

  • In this paper, we have determined the degree of approximation of function belonging of Lipschitz class by using Deferred-Generalized Nörlund (D𝛾𝛽.Npq) means of Fourier series and conjugate series of Fourier series, where {pn} and {qn} is a non-increasing sequence. So that results of DEGER and BAYINDIR [23] become special cases of our results.

  • A series of heavy rainfall, typhoon and earthquake disasters caused a proportionately large number of deaths among the elderly in the year 2004 in Japan. In response to these tragedies, the national government set up committees to reduce damage within the disaster vulnerable population for the next three years. The discussions in the committee led to a new conceptualization that disaster vulnerability was caused by a lack of interaction between a person's special needs and the environment's capacity and resources to meet them. This person-in-environment model of hazard vulnerability was applied to those who resided in the Nankai-Tonankai tsunami hazard-prone area. 123 home care service users were interviewed in terms of their self-evacuation ability, degree of social isolation, and building weakness as well as tsunami exposure risks. Results were quantified and scores of person-in-environmentmodel hazard vulnerability were obtained. These scores were then used to visualize socially created vulnerability by means of weighted kernel density mapping of both persons with special needs (PSN's) and persons with special needs at times of disaster (PSND's).

  • This article reviews the tailoring of engineered cementitious composites (ECC), a type of high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites with a theoretical design basis, for special attributes or functions. The design basis, a set of analytic tools built on micromechanics, provides guidelines for tailoring of fiber, matrix, and fiber/matrix interfaces to attain tensile ductility in ECC. If conditions for controlled multiple cracking are disturbed by the need to introduce ingredients to attain a special attribute or function, micromechanics then serve as a systematic and rational means to efficiently recover composite tensile ductility. Three examples of ECCs with attributes of lightweight, high early strength, and self-healing functions, are used to illustrate these tailoring concepts. The fundamental approach, however, is broadly applicable to a wide variety of ECCs designed for targeted fresh and/or hardened characteristics required for specific applications.
