The accusative of this field of study is to build up a more effective research to obtain and to understand the effects and the relation between/on the process parameters depth of cut, spindle speed and cutting feed rate on the surface roughness and to build a multiple regression model and predict the surface roughness values of machining parameters in the end-milling process. By the settling of experiments is to be designed and begin the enactment of surface quality and surface finish for the end-milling process have been performed. This set of experiments can provide brainstorm into the troubles of operating and controlling the finish of machined surfaces when the machining process parameters are aligned to obtain a certain surface finish. The set of experiments and the model, which includes the effect of depth of cut, spindle speed and cutting feed rate, and the interaction between any two-variable, which predict the surface roughness values with an accuracy of about 5.22 %.

Sequential pattern mining has been a focused theme in data mining. Sequential pattern mining algorithms provide better performance for short sequences but are inefficient at mining long sequences, since long sequences generate a large number of frequent subsequences. To avoid the limitations of sequential pattern mining algorithms, closed sequential pattern mining algorithms were developed. Closed sequential pattern mining produces less number of patterns and works more efficiently than sequential pattern mining. In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm CSPgrow to find out closed sequential patterns. To improve the performance, we developed an Extension Checking pruning method. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm CSPgrow outperforms ClaSP.

This paper gives a non-invasive approach for the measurement of blood glucose concentration in the blood, with the use of fluorescence radiation. By directing the fluorescence radiation at the target trytophan, the reflected radiation from tryptophan is detected at the detector and converted into a measurable signal. This value will correlate with the blood glucose concentration.

The study discusses improving safe blood donation in Nigeria and the roles of the mass media in achieving same in Nigerian hospitals. In this regard, it answers the questions: What is blood? What is blood donation? And is safe blood donation adequate in Nigeria? Beyond the relevant answers given on the above questions, it also explains the roles of mass media in improving safe blood donations among Nigerians. Besides this, it recommends among others that the federal government, state government, private hospitals and concerned Nigerians should encourage mass media campaigns continuously on the need for safe blood donations to save lives. It also upholds that the federal and state governments should establish more blood banks in their health facilities, in order to spur the people, who would become aware through the mass media, to access same for safe blood donations. Keywords: Improvement, Safe Blood, Donation, Roles, the Mass Media

This article analyses the market reaction to stock splits announcements, using a unique Indian sample over the period 2001 to 2010. Our event study finds a significantly positive Cumulative Average Abnormal Return (CAAR) around the announcement date. Liquidity increases lead to higher stock price changes, which supports the liquidity improvement hypothesis. Further, firm size and abnormal returns are inversely related, which is in line with the attention hypothesis.

The aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between assertiveness and early maladaptive schemas .The statistical population include all of AL Zahra university students in the year 2013-2014, in which, by using random sampling,150 students were selected. To gather data, two questionnaires of Young’s maladaptive schemas (75 items) and assertive questionnaire (40 items) of Gambril&Richi was used. Data analysis performed by using Pearson correlation test andmultiple Regressions. Results showed that there is positive significant relationship betweenmaladaptive schemas of emotional deprivation, subjugation, self-sacrifice, emotional inhibition and defectiveness / shame and assertiveness and there is an inversion relationship between Entitlement schemas and assertiveness.
