Coal Fines

At the present time, coal production wastes up to 2 % of fine fraction, which has adverse impact on the environment. On the other hand, coal fines can be a feedstock to obtain different products of chemical processing—benzines, oils, briquettes, etc. For this reason, it is necessary to develop dedicated technologies to utilize fine waste in manufacture of products having high added value. The experimental results demonstrate usability of wheat bran as a binder in coal waste briquetting. It is found how the binder and the briquetting conditions influence the physical and mechanical properties and combustion characteristics of coal briquettes. The optimized coal briquetting conditions are: carbonization of feedstock, use of binder in quantity of 25–30 mass%, briquetting pressure of 4 MPa. Thus, the authors have analyzed the influence of the briquetting conditions on the properties of coal briquettes, and have tested the earlier developed approaches to transformation of Oi-Karagai coal fines into a target product of high added value. The authors appreciate participation of A. Karagulanov, fellow of the Al-Farabi Kazakh National University in this study. The work was performed with the grant support of the Ministry of Education and Science RK-A RO 08957618.

National Universities

A new world-class university policy called the Designated National University scheme was introduced in Japan in 2017. Six national universities are now given a distinguished legal status, differentiating them from all other national universities, and are expected to be competitive with leading universities worldwide. However, the government expects the selected universities to be capable of generating their own income. In light of the uncertainty surrounding the highly complex mechanism linking knowledge activities at universities and industrial commercialization, this appears to be a risk-taking policy.

Very recently, the former spokesman of China's Ministry of Education launched a public attack on the national fervor for English learning in his personal blog (Xinhua News, 2013). He forcefully argued that too much time and energy has been spent on learning English as a foreign language, which has seriously jeopardized Chinese citizens’ first-language education, and called for the cancellation of English lessons in the primary school curriculum. Following this, the Beijing municipal commission of education announced its plan to reduce the English section of the National University Entrance Qualifying Exam (or gaokao) from 150 points to 100 points in major cities by 2016 so as to downplay the importance of English in the education system. A further report states that education authorities are also considering scrapping mandatory English lessons before the third grade. Shandong and Jiangsu provinces, as well as Shanghai, may remove English from the gaokao entirely (The Guardian, 2013).

Abstract Although the training of liver transplant procedure is highly important to young transplant surgeons, it is too hard to secure the learning opportunity, especially in the countries like Japan whose organ transplants from deceased-donors are relatively rare. In such a situation, the surgical training in large animals such as pigs seems to be helpful in improving their skills. Consequently, under the assist by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) in Japan, we established a simulation work of whole liver transplantation using laboratory pigs in the context of interinstitutional frame called the Six National University Consortium in Liver Transplant Professionals Training (SNUC-LT) Program. For this purpose, in this procedure, to guarantee stable circulatory dynamics during the anhepatic phase of pigs, we created a porto-caval-jugular shunt which is followed by addressing liver dysfunction, portal hypertension and intestinal congestion. Here, we describe the precise practical procedure. We believe that our procedure enables young transplant surgeons to gain surgical skills efficiently and effectively in addition to making a model animal in an experimental field.

Over 20 years of Korea-Vietnam relationship, Korea has become the biggest investor in Vietnam, and Vietnam the forth on the list of Korea’s most important partners. There are over 135,000 Koreans living in Vietnam and out of 123,000 Vietnamese living and working in Korea, there are 40,000 Vietnamese wives to Korean husbands. Currently, in Korea there are 4 universities that have faculties or departments of the Vietnamese language or of Vietnamese Studies, with a large number of alumni who have successfully found jobs. Demand is higher than supply capacity. Vietnamese proficiency is not only essential to Koreans living and working in Vietnam and Korea-based companies with Vietnamese employees but also will be valuable to children of thousands of Korean-Vietnamese families in the coming years. The Ministry of Education of Korea has just announced a policy stating that the Vietnamese language will be one of the eight second languages in the national university entrance examination, which will bring to Vietnamese language teaching new opportunities and prospects.

Inter-floor noise, i.e., noise transmitted from one floor to another floor through walls or ceilings in an apartment building or an office of a multi-layered structure, causes serious social problems in South Korea. Notably, inaccurate identification of the noise type and position by human hearing intensifies the conflicts between residents of apartment buildings. In this study, we propose a robust approach using deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to learn and identify the type and position of inter-floor noise. Using a single mobile device, we collected nearly 2000 inter-floor noise events that contain 5 types of inter-floor noises generated at 9 different positions on three floors in a Seoul National University campus building. Based on pre-trained CNN models designed and evaluated separately for type and position classification, we achieved type and position classification accuracy of 99.5% and 95.3%, respectively in validation datasets. In addition, the robustness of noise type classification with the model was checked against a new test dataset. This new dataset was generated in the building and contains 2 types of inter-floor noises at 10 new positions. The approximate positions of inter-floor noises in the new dataset with respect to the learned positions are presented.

The Council of Education Reform of the Executive Yuan in Taiwan raised the issue of incorporating national universities in 1996. After that initial effort, the Ministry of Education in 2000 revealed its proposal to incorporate national universities in a White Paper on higher education policy. In 2003–2006 the government has tried at least twice to sell the policy to legislators in Taiwan's parliament (the Legislative Yuan). The first attempt was made in 2003 when the government submitted its bill to revise the University Act. In the bill, a whole chapter was devoted to regulations concerned with the incorporation of universities. The proposal promised university corporations autonomy, and, in particular, more flexible personnel and accounting systems. The bill, however, failed to pass the Committee of Education and Culture in the Legislative Yuan. In October 2005, the Ministry of Education tried again by including only one article related to the incorporation of universities in the bill. That article was to provide universities with a legal foundation for incorporation, but the Legislative Yuan passed the bill without including that particular article. It thus failed again. The Ministry of Education has not, however, given up on its policy of incorporating universities. In a special NT$50 billion dollar aid package to universities, the government required that all recipients include a plan for incorporation. In order to receive the special assistance, most universities have chosen not to resist. The incorporation of national universities in Taiwan is an issue that needs to be closely watched in the future.
