  • This study look into a role change and geographical inertia of the central place. The place is selected and progressed as the center which is the joining of physical condition and social situation of the region. The central place is the role change according to social change but it has geographical inertia as the central place. The result is as follows. Firstly, the role of regional center is changed. This sample region is the center of a national defense and administration and traffic in Three-Country period. But the role of the national defense is disappeared with the unity of the three countries. A traffic center facility was lost because of traffic axis changed from the east-west line to the north-south line when Ko-Ryo period. A facility loss as a traffic center leads to diminish the administration function and the movement of the regional center within that area. Secondary. the new regional center function was maintained by the joining of an outside and inside peoples. It maintained the geographical inertia by Confucianism culture instead of administration function. Thirdly, it had geographical location movement within the area.

  • We investigate the degeneracy in the pattern of central microlensing perturbations of a pair of planetary systems where the planets are located from the primary with projected separations in units of the Einstein radius s and $s^{-1}$, respectively. From this, we confirm the fact that although alike, the patterns of central perturbations induced by a close (s < 1) planet and a wide (s > 1) planet are not identical and the degree of difference depends on the planet/primary mass ratio and the planet-primary separation. We find that the difference can be greater than 5% for planetary systems with lensing parameters located in the parameter space of (1/1.8 < |s| < 1.8, q > $5{\times}10^{-3}$), (1/1.3 < |s| < 1.3, q > $1{\times}10^{-3}$), and (1/1.2 < |s| < 1.2, q > $5{\times}10^{-4}$), where q represents the planet/primary mass ratio. Although this range occupies a small fraction of the entire parameter space of planetary systems, we predict that the chance of resolving the close/wide degeneracy would not be meager considering that the planet detection efficiency is higher for planets with resonant separations (s $\sim$ 1) and heavier masses. We also find that the differences between the perturbation patterns are basically caused by the effect of the planetary caustic. This explains the tendency of the perturbation difference where (1) the difference increases as the planet/primary mass ratio increases and the separation approaches the Einstein radius, (2) the region of major difference is confined within the region around the line connecting the central and the planetary caustics, and (3) a wide (close) planetary system has a more extended central perturbation region toward the (opposite) direction of the planet.

  • Statement of problem : Clinically, maxillary first premolar has a high risk of fracture. This is thought to be caused by the susceptible figure which the maxillary first premolar has In other words, sharp cusp angles of the premolar is thought to influence this situation. Purpose : This study was to know stress distribution of all-ceramic crown according to the cusp angle. Material and Method : It was manufactured a three dimensional finite element model simplified maxillary first premolar, and then analyzed stress distribution when cusp angle was each $80^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, $100^{\circ}$, $110^{\circ}$ and $120^{\circ}$. Results and conclusion : 1. The von Misses stress showed that stress decreases as cusp angle increases in the central groove of the occlusal surface. 2. It showed that maximum principal stress was centered at the region of the central groove of the occlusal surface and a region which the force was inflicted. And also it appeared high on the lingual and buccal side of finish line. 3. The X axis of normal stress was focused in the central groove of the occlusal surface. The Y axis normal stress appeared high in the central groove of the occlusal surface, buccal and lingual side. 4. The Stress near the finish line showed a low value compared with stress in the region of the central groove of the occlusal surface. 5. It shows that the most dangerous angle for tooth fracture was on $80^{\circ}$ of the cusp angle and low on $120^{\circ}$ of its.

  • The central molecular zone (CMZ) is a region of rich molecular gas located in the inner few hundred parsecs in barred spiral galaxies. We study the size and morphology evolution of the CMZ of Milky Way-like galaxies both in isolation and in interaction by using N-body/hydrodynamic simulations. Specifically, we examine the gas flows and star formation activities in the central region of the galaxies. We focus in particular on the effects of galaxy interactions, including flybys and minor mergers, on the evolution of the CMZ.

  • We use smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) models to study the evolution of galactic spin and the distribution of gas and young stars in the inner region of the galaxies through galaxy encounters. Specifically, we perform numerical simulations of interactions of a late- or an early-type galaxy with either a late- or an early-type galaxy with and without a gas halo at the closest approach distances of 25 and 50 kpc. We find that an early-type galaxy encountering a late-type galaxy have a higher galactic spin and more gas and young stars in the central region of the galaxy after the collision. We are analyzing the role of a gas halo on the changes of galactic spin and central mass distribution during various galaxy-galaxy encounters.

  • The incidence of esophageal cancer in Kazakhstan was analysed for the period of 1989-2010 years, with a focus on trends by age, gender and region. The highest rates of incidence were evident in the Western regions. The dynamics for cancer of the esophagus in the Republic demonstrated decrease, except in the Karaganda region, where a tendency for increase was noted. Considerable variation between regions pointed to differences in risk factor exposure which need to be targeted for future control efforts.

  • Purpose: Pathologic tooth migration (PTM) commonly occurs in the anterior region and is associated with periodontal disease. The treatment of PTM of anterior teeth can be complex and time consuming, and a multidisciplinary approach is often required. Materials and Methods: The patient was a 38-year-old woman with a chief complaint of saving and realigning her elongated maxillary left central incisor. This paper describes the successful combined periodontal regenerative (guided tissue regeneration) and prosthetic treatment and a 2-year follow-up of maxillary central incisor with pathologic tooth migration, deep intrabony defect, and poor prognosis. Results: The right maxillary central incisor was restored by laminate veneer and the left by all-ceramic crown. The patient had no pain and discomfort and was satisfied with the outcomes of her treatment for 2 years. She has maintained her recall program at the Department of Periodontology at 3 months interval. Conclusion: The key step in the successful treatment of PTM in anterior region is to obtain a high level of cooperation from the patient. Maintenance of the treatment result of PTM is dependent on the continuous preservation of periodontal health.

  • An elastic-plastic solution for cavity expansion problem considering strength degradation, undrained condition and initial anisotropic in-situ stress is established based on the Tresca yield criterion and cavity expansion theory. Assumptions of large-strain for plastic region and small-strain for elastic region are adopted, respectively. The initial in-situ stress state of natural soil mass may be anisotropic caused by consolidation history, and the strength degradation of soil mass is caused by structural damage of soil mass in the process of loading analysis (cavity expansion process). Finally, the published solutions are conducted to verify the suitability of this elastic-plastic solution, and the parametric studies are investigated in order to the significance of this study for in-situ soil test.

  • Using VLT/MUSE and ALMA data, we present a spatially-resolved analysis of the central part of NGC 5728. We find enhanced star formation (${\sim}1.8M{\odot}/yr/kpc2$) at a region where AGN gas outflows intersect the star formation ring. In contrast, significantly weaker CO emission (~3.5 times) is found at the same region compared to other regions in ring, suggesting positive AGN feedback on star formation. On the other hand, we detect gas outflows outside of the spiral arms, implying that the inflowing gas in the arms is removed (i.e., negative feedback). Even though the positive and negative feedback are expected at the central part of NGC 5728, the impact of the AGN feedback in galaxy scale may be insignificant.

  • A wide tree-ring data network from Western Himalayan region as well as from Central and Peninsular India have been established by the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune, India. This includes several ring width and density chronologies of Himalayan conifers (Pinus, Picea, Cedrus, Abies)covering entire area of Western Himalaya and teak (Tectona grandis L.F.) from central and peninsular India. Many of these chronologies go back to $15^{th}$ century. Tree-ring based reconstructed pre-monsoon (March-April-May) summer climate of Western Himalaya do not show any significant increasing or decreasing trend since past several centuries. High altitude tree-ring chronologies near tree line-glacier boundary are sensitive to the winter temperature. Unprecedented higher growth in recent decades is closely associated with the warming trend over the Himalayan region. Dendroclimatic analysis of teak (Tectona grandis) from Central and Peninsular India show significant relationship with pre-monsoon and monsoon climate. Moisture index over the region indicates strong association with tree-ring variations rather than the direct influence of rainfall. It is evident that, two to three consecutive good monsoon years are capable of maintaining normal or above normal tree growth, even though the following year is low precipitation year.
