This study investigates the influence of the innovativeness of consumers on extended products in brand extensions. 300 surveys were distributed and 283 were used in the final analysis. The results of this study show that consumers evaluate similar product category (i.e., sportswear) better than a dissimilar category (i.e., cosmetics) in brand extension. In addition, innovative consumers evaluated extended product better regardless of similarity with the original brand. The results showed that consumers with higher level of innovativeness were less likely to evaluate differently between a similar product and dissimilar product categories in apparel brand extension.

In the context of total quality management, customer satisfaction is a key factor of success. Customer needs have been in the past described with rather vague words. In order to lead in the competitive market, product designers must be willing to interpret and reflect customer perceptions of a product on the design. The objective of this research is to develop a systematic process capable of linking customer preferences on a product to the design of product elements or specifications. The design process consists of multivariate statistical analyses, semantic differentials, and multidimensional scaling techniques under the framework of a methodology known as quality function deployment which is frequently used to construct a quality design process. The process being established is expected to serve as an effective means to communicate between the customer and the designer through proper representational schemes of design elements.

The terminology such as ecology, environment problems, ecosystems, ecofactory, and others related to environmental problems have been recently used in manufacturing systems, since the modern industries have to consider a global ecological crisis. The indifference of recent environmental problems which may be faced now has been paid attention to all engineering areas. In this paper, manufacturing functional requirements such as disassembly, disposal, disposal, or recycling are considered in the integrated product design development, which have not been considered well in the preliminary design stage. Those functions will contribute to reduce the waste and to long the product life cycle, which also satisfies the business benefits and customer requirements. The concurrent design concepts should be applied to integrate all possible factors. Therefore, few practical concurrent engineering tools are presented in here. The objective of this paper is to develop a called green manufacturing systems for integrated product design development by concurrent design concept which can give the desirable result in product design.

Recent research has examined how changing a buyer's purchasing policy can improve the efficiency of buyer-seller transactions for a single product. This paper extends the analysis to consider transactions involving multiple products. We show that under certain conditions, coordinating purchases across products is more efficient for the buyer and the seller than maximizing transctions efficiency for each separate product. In contrast to the single product case, the original prices of the products sometimes can support efficient, coordinated transactions across products. Mechanisms like quantity discounts, which are necessary to enforce efficient transactions for a single product, are therefore not always necessary for efficient, coordinated transactions of multiple products. When such mechanisms are required, we show that product bundling by the seller can be used to maximize transactions efficiency across products.

In the previous studies. we confirmed the anti-inflammatory components of Kalopanax pictus bark using activity-guided fractionation in vivo. For the elucidation of anti-inflammatory mechanism, we evaluated the effects of these components on the inhibition of NF-$\sub$K/B activity and human leukocyte elastase. A cell-based assay system developed in our laboratory was used in transfectant RAW 264.7 cells. (omitted)

In this research, the has been speculation about effects of pH, alkalinity, and chloride, each of which are major factors in water for the corrosion of copper pipes frequently used as the distribution system throughout the world. It is believed that these factors release a corrosion by-product. The results show the following that the first, for each water sample of pH 7, 8 and 9, various concentrations of alkalinity at 10, 50, 100, 150 mg/L was tested. It was found that conditions of higher pH led to decreased concentrations of copper by-product. For each pH, higher alkalinity produced higher concentrations of copper by-product. the second, higher chloride concentrations led to decreased concentrations of copper by-product. Apparently this was due to the Nantokite(CuCl) formation on the inner walls of the copper pipes with the passage of time. The third, when 25, 50mg/L of chloride were added, the average decreasing rate of copper release concentration was 45.7, 66.7%, respectively.

This paper describes the implementation process of Virtual Modeling system for a customer-oriented product. The human sense is measured and analyzed by physical design factors and can be applied also for the product design. The first step implementing virtual modeling is to make a human sensibility("Kansei") database. Human sensibility database is constructed with the relational data of Kansei words and design factors. The next step is extraction the design information from the human sensibility database by fuzzy inference algorithm. This design information is used for the input data for the graphic database. Virtual implementation software compounds 3D shape of product. The final product can be modified according to the customer's requirement.quirement.

An advanced TFT-LCD structure was proposed to increase aperture ratio (AR). In this structure, metal layers formed below the data lines are used as light-blocking layers, achieving higher AR ratio than that of a conventional structure. Since average misalignment between the metal light-blocking layers and pixel electrodes is smaller than that of black matrixes on color filter glass, substantially less light-blocking areas are needed to achieve misalignment margin. The AR of the LCD panel fabricated by using proposed structure was enhanced by 18.7 % over that of the conventionally structured panel.

Mangifera indica Linn. (MI) (Family: Anacardiaceae) is commonly known worldwide as mango and ‘Aam’ in India. MI shares an important place in treatment of several diseases in various ancient system of medicine like Ayurveda and other Indian System of Medicine and some other Traditional Medicines world wide. Almost all the parts of MI have been used in oriental medicine, so in this review attempt has being made to review the history, traditional uses, phytoconstituents and therapeutic potentials of mango.

Recently, the variation of industry has been changed faster and faster than before. It is using Rapid Prototyping Method to cope with fast change. This technology used to make a prototype, master pattern of manufactured product by vacuum casting, and so on. But this method has errors by contraction as a necessity. this error has been caused because the shape of prototype is smaller than CAD data. So we must solve the problem about precision of product. Therefore in this study, we will reduce the errors like contraction of material by manufacturing of rapid prototype product. Through these courses, we will enhance a precision of product.
