Syntactic And Semantic Interpretations Of Control Constructions In British And American Sports News Articles, Abhinan Wongkittiporn Jan 2019

Syntactic And Semantic Interpretations Of Control Constructions In British And American Sports News Articles, Abhinan Wongkittiporn

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

This study observes control constructions, traditionally known as to- infinitives, null infinitives, and -ing infinitives to examine their occurrence and connection with syntactic functions and semantic interpretations. The data is from sports news articles in British and American English. From previous studies, semantic interpretation and language variation are the reasons for the appearances of most control constructions. However, most previous studies only paid attention to specific types of control constructions, specific verbs and positions (i.e. Verb Phrase complements) in academic and fiction texts. This study observes all types of control constructions. While interpreting the appearance of control constructions in British …

Development Of Flotation Enhanced Stirred Tank (Fest) Process For Petroleum Hydrocarbons Removal From Drill Cuttings, Marina Phea

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

This work aims to develop the treatment process for the removal of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) from DC by using the combination of air floatation and stirring processes, called Flotation Enhanced Stirred Tank (FEST). Initially, stirring, induced air flotation (IAF), and dissolved air flotation (DAF) are individually investigated over DC washing. Afterward, the combination process between “stirring-DAF” and “stirring-IAF-DAF” are continuously observed for finding the better conditions of TPH removal efficiency. To optimize the operational terms of the treatment process, the Design of Experiment (DOE) is applied to design the experimental conditions within the central composite design-response surface methodology (CCD-RSM). …

A Reinforcement Learning Model For Lending Problems With Limited Budget And Insufficient Data, Radaporn Autravisittikul Jan 2019

A Reinforcement Learning Model For Lending Problems With Limited Budget And Insufficient Data, Radaporn Autravisittikul

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Traditional lending policy requires sufficient data for making lending decisions, therefore, some small companies could not access to the fund. In this study, we propose a decision making model that can decide whether to accept or reject a sequence of unfamiliar loan applications while having a limited budget. Our model does not have any knowledge about the incoming loans, therefore, it can predict the default probability with low accuracy at the beginning. The model can learn by observing the outcomes of the accepted loans. The model's budget increases every time the model accepts a fully paid loan and decreases when …

A Comparison Of Microrna Profiles Between Rat Incisors And Molars, Sirawit Nipakasem Jan 2019

A Comparison Of Microrna Profiles Between Rat Incisors And Molars, Sirawit Nipakasem

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Unlike the molar, rodent incisor is a distinct organ that have continuously growth at distal end of tooth throughout its lifetime to compensate for abrasion. The key of continuous growth is the result of delayed root formation and prolonged crown formation that possibly made by stem cell niche, so-called cervical loop, which involve various genes and signaling pathways. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding single stranded RNAs that involved in biological mechanisms of dental development. To study the role of miRNA, we extracted total RNA from the dental pulp tissue collected from the apical part, coronal part of incisors and molars, …

Pm2.5, Pm10 Air Pollution And Associated Heavy Metals In Traffic Congested And Construction Areas Of Bangkok, Paphinwit Thammasaroj

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

The capital city of Thailand, Bangkok, is facing a serious problem caused by overpopulation and traffic congestion. In the this work, particulate matter, both PM2.5 (diameter < 2.5 μm) and PM10 (diameter < 10 μm) were quantified at the road nears construction areas and road with high traffic; compared with a control area. The sampling area comprised of Pattanakarn Road and Srinagarindra Road located on the eastern route, located between the inbound and outbound junction. Mini-volume air sampler was used to collect PM2.5, while cyclone air samplers were used to collect PM10. The samples were collected from November to December 2018, for 12 hours per day for 5 days at each sites. The collected samples were then digested by using microwave digestion for heavy metal components like Fe, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb. Then, they were analyzed by Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (GFAAS) to quantify the heavy metal concentrations. Video recorders were installed at each sampling areas to monitor the traffic flow and it was found that construction areas were the most crowded. The average PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations in the construction areas were higher than those in traffic areas with no construction and the background site (a park), which had no impacts from construction and traffic. Heavy metals associated with particulate matter emitted during construction activities is an emerging environmental issue; however, construction activities are required for convenience and development. This study provides important data required to monitor the future trends of air pollution sources.
