Low inflation and sustainable growth have been the major macroeconomic goals being pursued by every developing country, Vietnam inclusive. The effect of inflation on economic growth has been intensively analyzed by a variety of studies, but the empirical evidence more often than not remains controversial and ambiguous. One common hypothesis of previous studies is that they have assumed that the effect of inflation on growth is symmetric. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the asymmetric effect of inflation and money supply on economic growth using the Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag approach introduced by Shin, Byungchul, and Greenwood-nimmo (2013) for Vietnam over the period 1990-2017. Empirical results provide evidence that the effects of inflation on economic growth are negative and asymmetric in the long run. The impact of money supply on growth is positive in both the short-run and long-run. Accordingly, the impact of the increase in the inflation rate is bigger than the decreasing in the long-run. This different impact is significant and high inflation will destruct economic activities. As a result, the study provides empirical evidence for the authorities to plan monetary policies and control the rate of inflation to achieve sustainable economic development in the long-run.

A simple bimodal model has been developed to analyze charged particle coagulation by modifying previously suggested bimdal model for evolution of particle generation and growth. In the present model, two monodisperse modes are used and 40 charge nodes are assigned to each mode to account both change of the particle size and charge distribution. In addition, we also implemented the effect of electrostatic dispersion loss in the present model. Based on the developed model, we analyzed coagulation of asymmetric bipolar charged particles by computing evolutions of particle number concentration, geometric mean diameter of particles, charge asymmetric ratio and geometric standard deviation of particle size distribution for various initial charge asymmetric ratios. The number concentration of asymmetric bipolar charged particles decreases faster than that of neutral particles but that does not give faster growth of particles since the electrostatic dispersion loss overwhelms particle growth by coagulation.

This study presents that the orientation and the geometry of seed affect on the growth behavior of melt processed single grain REBCO bulk superconductor and its magnetic properties. The effects of seed geometry have been investigated for thin $30mm{\times}30mm$ rectangular powder compacts. Single grain REBCO bulk superconductors have been grown successfully by a top seed melt growth method for 8-mm thick vertical thin REBCO slab. Asymmetric structures have been developed at the front surface and at the rear surface of the specimen. Higher magnetic properties have been obtained for the specimen that c-axis is normal to the specimen surface. The relationships between microstructure, grain growth and magnetic properties have been discussed.

A numerical study was conducted on the optimum magnetic field intensity and asymmetric factor for uniform axial oxygen concentration in 8 inch silicon single crystal growing process by magnetic Czochralski method. For constant shape of cusp field, a change of coil and crucible position were compared. In case of symmetric cusp field, magnetic field intensity variation shows concave downward with crystal growing for uniform, axial oxygen concentration. A numerical results show similar value of standard deviation of average oxygen concentration for uniform oxygen concentration between coil and crucible position change. In case of asymmetric cusp field. asymmetric factor is increased with crystal growing to have uniform oxygen concentration.

The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of oil prices on economic growth and exchange rate in Saudi Arabia during the period 1980-2020. For this purpose, the linear and nonlinear ARDL models are estimated. The linear ARDL model shows that the oil price and economic growth are cointegrated. Moreover, the two variables have a significant positive association in the long run. However, the oil price has no significant impact on the exchange rate. When estimating the nonlinear ARDL model, it has been shown that oil price is only cointegrated with economic growth but not with the exchange rate. The estimation of nonlinear effects using the nonlinear ARDL model shows that economic growth is affected by both positive and negative oil shocks in the long run. However, the impact of positive shocks is higher than those of negative shocks. Moreover, results show that the short-run effects of positive and negative oil shocks are not statistically significant. Regarding the exchange rate, our results show that the effects of positive and negative oil shocks are not statistically significant. Consequently, this study concludes that the oil price has an asymmetric effect on economic growth in Saudi Arabia, but not on the exchange rate.

There are many debates on the topic of the relationship between oil prices and economic growth. Through the repeated processes of conformations and contractions on the subject, two main issues are developed; one is how to define and drive oil shocks from oil prices, and the other is how to specify an econometric model to reflect the asymmetric relations between oil prices and output growth. The study, thus, introduces the unobserved component model to pick up the oil shocks and a first-order Markov switching model to reflect the asymmetric features. We finally employ unique oil shock variables from the stochastic trend components of oil prices and adapt four lags of the mean growth Markov Switching model. The results indicate that oil shocks exert more impact to recessionary state than expansionary state and the supply-side oil shocks are more persistent and significant than the demand-side shocks.

1. Introduction : The growth of membrane science was initiated by the invention of asymmetric membrane which can be formed by the technique known as phase inversion. The basic procedure of phase inversion involves casting a thin film of polymer solution onto a suitable substrate followed by immersion in a coagulation bath (quench step). Therefore, events occurring during the quench period, at which time solvent-nonsolvent exchange and eventual polymer precipitation take place, can play a controlling role in the determination of ultimate membrane structure.

First topic of this paper aims to clarify how oxygen and heat transfer in silicon melt under cusp-shaped magnetic fields. We obtained asymmetric temperature distribution by using time dependent and three-dimensional calculation. Second topic is study on molecular dynamics simulation, which was carried out to estimate diffusion constants of oxygen in silicon melt.

It has been established that disk displacement of the temporomandibular joint(TMJ) can cause mandibular asymmetry in growing subjects. One of the causes of internal derangement of TMJ seems to be the result of poor positioning of the joint structure in unilateral cross bite, and the subsequent occlusal trauma transferred to the functioning unit of the mandible, the joint and disc. Transverse discrepancy of the maxillary and the mandibular posterior dentoalveolar units was often found in mandibular asymmetric subjects. Most of the asymmetry in growing subjects becomes worse with further growth if left untreated. However once sufficient posterior overjet is gained through orthodontic treatment, many cases have shown improvement in facial asymmetry. Furthermore, the position of condyles in computed tomogram(con-beam CT) changed from anatomically unfavorable position to more concentric position.
