This paper deals with contrastive analysis and interlanguage with respect to adjective ordering. It aimed to investigate how similar and different the orders of descriptive adjectives are in English and Korean, and how Korean EFL learners perceive the sequences of English descriptive adjectives. Data were collected from native English speakers and native Korean speakers and Korean EFL learners. The contrastive analysis showed that the order of English adjectives was size, opinion, condition, age, color, shape, material, and origin, whereas the Korean order was condition, age, opinion, color, size, shape, material, and origin. The relative order of the interlanguage was shown to be age, size, opinion, shape, condition, color, origin, and material, with the exceptions of the order of condition preceding age and that of size being the same position as condition. The interlanguage data manifested different aspects of ordering when compared with English and Korean: Some adjective combinations were similar to both English and Korean; Some were different from English or Korean; Some were different from both English and Korean. These ordering patterns are discussed in terms of such principles as the nouniness principle, the subjectivity/objectivity principle, the iconic principle, etc. On the basis of these results, some helpful suggestions are made.

A statistical thermodynamic theory of thermotropic main-chain polymeric liquid crystalline melts is developed within the framework of the lattice model by a generalization of the well-known procedure of Flory and DiMarzio. According to the results of Vasilenko et al., the theory of orientational ordering in melts of polymers containing rigid and flexible segments in the main chain is taken into account. When the ordering of flexible segments in the nematic melt is correlated with that of rigid mesogenic groups, the former is assumed to be given as a function of the ordering of rigid mesogenic cores. A free energy density that includes short-range packing contributions is formulated. The properties of the liquid-crystalline transiton are investigated for various cases of the system. The results calculated in this paper show not only the order-parameter values but also the first-order phase transition phenomena that are similar to those observed experimentally for the thermotropic liquid-crystalline polymers and show the transitional entropy terms which actually increase upon orientational ordering. In the orientational ordering values, it is shown that mesogenic groups, flexible segments, and gauche energy (temperature) may be quite substantial. Finally, by using the flexibility term, we predict the highly anisotropic mesophase which was shown by Vasilenko et al.

This letter proposes a simplified maximum likelihood detection (SMLD) scheme to improve the detection performance of multiple-input multiple-output receivers. The SMLD detects V streams according to the first detected V sub-streams. Through an ML test, the most probable stream is selected. Moreover, to detect the layer with the worst post-detection SNR accurately, reverse ordering is applied to the SMLD. Simulation results show that the performance of the Vertical Bell Laboratories layered space-time (V-BLAST) system can be improved by adopting the SMLD technique. In the case of reverse ordering, the SMLD can achieve a similar ML performance with significant reduction in computational complexity.

Detailed studies of high resolution TEM inages on the modulated structure caused by Zn vacancy ordering along [110] direction in BZT sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 90 hours had revealed that the images which had hexagonal patterns were similar to those obtained from the structure which had no modulation, These images had appeared over the wide ranges from -30 nm to -42 nm in defocus values and from 2 nm to 20 nm in thickness. The computer simulated images showed that the modulation due to Zn vacancy ordering had made a small change in contrast in the interior of hexagonal pattern, which was very difficult to differenciate in experiments. The image which demonstrated the modulated structure very well was the one which obtained at -52 nm in defocus value and 16 nm in thickness.

Crystal structure and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3) $O_3$ (BMN) ceramics were investigated. Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3) $O_3$ has the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure. The 1:2 ordering and relative density of specimens increased with small Mg deficiency(x). The variation of Q${\times}$ $f_{0}$ with Mg deficiency is very similar to that of 1:2 ordering and relative density. The highest Q${\times}$ $f_{0}$ achieved in this investigation is about 96,000 for Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3) $O_3$. The improvement of Q${\times}$ $f_{0}$ with Mg-deficiency is related to the increase of degree of ordering and relative density of the specimen.

Crystal structure and microwave dielectric properties of $Ba(Mg_{1/3-x}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ (BMN) ceramics were investigated. $Ba(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ has the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure. The 1:2 ordering and relative density of specimens increased with small Mg deficiency(x). The variation of Q-value with Mg deficiency is very similar to that of 1:2 ordering and relative density. The highest $Q{\times}f_0$ achieved in this investigation is about 96,000 for $Ba(Mg_{1/3-0.02}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. The improvement of Q-value with Mg-deficiency is related to the increase of degree of ordering and relative density of the specimen.

In this paper, we propose an efficient datapath placement algorithm to minimize track density. Here, we consider each datapath element as a cluster, and merge the most strongly connected two clusters to a new cluster until only one cluster remains. As nodes in the two clusters to be merged are already linearly ordered respectively, we can merge two clusters with connecting them. The proposed algorithm produces circular linear ordering by connecting starting point and end point of the final cluster, and n different linear ordering by cutting between two contiguous elements of the circular linear ordering. Among the n different linear ordering, the linear ordering to minimize track density is final solution. In this paper, we show and utilize that if two clusters are strongly connected in a graph, the inner product of the corresponding vectors mapped in d-dimensional space using spectral method is maximum. Compared with previous datapath placement algorithm GA/S $A^{［2］}$, the proposed algorithm gives similar results with much less computation time.

Lanthanum manganites have been extensively studied for the application to magnetic devices since the colossal magnetoresistance of these compounds has been observed [1]. The critical temperatures, Tc, of manganites La/sub 0.7/Ca/sub 0.3-x/Ba/sub x/MnO₃ increased as the content of Ba increased except the abrupt jump near the critical concentration. The step like behavior of the critical temperature for a similar compound has been known to be related to the structural phase transition [2]. To understand the step like behavior of Tc, the EXAFS technique is applied to the La/sub 0.7/Ca/sub 0.3-x/Ba/sub x/MnO₃ compound system. The ordering between the manganese and oxygen was examined by this method. The EXAFS analysis shows that the coordination numbers were not changed before and after the phase transition, the bonding distance between manganese and oxygen is about 1.94 ± 0.02 Å, which is consistent with other work [3] and the Debye waller parameters were about σ²= 0.0037 ± 0.0005 Ų for x=0.0 and x=3.0, respectively. The value of Debye-Waller parameter for x=0.09 is about σ² = 0.0050 ± 0.0005 Ų in about phase transition concentration. Based on the Debye-Waller parameters, it is shown that the ordering between manganese and oxygen is significantly reduced near the phase transition concentration.

First-principles investigations on the hybrid one dementional hexagonal hybrboron-nitride nano ribbons (BNNRs) with a armchair graphene nano-ribbons(AGRNRs), are presented. Electronics properties of the mixed armchair BNC nano-ribbon (BNCNRs) structure show control of a band gap on all cases at the special K-point. And we have studied, the band gap is direct in all cases. The band gap of mixed ABNCNRs could be divided into three groups (${\Delta}3p$, ${\Delta}3p+1$ and ${\Delta}3p+2$) and decrease with the increase of the width. Also these results show similar to the AGNRs case. Different from the band gap value ordering of AGNRs (${\Delta}3p+1$ > ${\Delta}3p$ > ${\Delta}3p+2$), the ordering of ABNCNRs is ${\Delta}3p$ > ${\Delta}3p+1$ > ${\Delta}3p+2$. The discrepancy may come from the differences between the edges of AGRNRs and the boundaries of hybrid BNCNRs. In addition, the bandgap of ABNCNRs are much smaller than those of the corresponding AGNRs. Our results show that the origin of band gap for BNCNRs with armchair shaped edges arises from both quantum confinement effect of the edges. These results similar to thecase of AGNRs. These properties of hybrid BN/C nano-ribbon structure may offer suitable bandgap to develop nnanoscale electronics and solar cell beyond individual GNRs and BNNRs.
