Inductive Micro Displacement Detecting System with High Sensitivity and Low Linearity Error
No full textA newly designed inductive micro displacement detecting system is presented. The proposed inductive system consists of driving coils, position-detecting coils, cores, and closed-loop formed magnetic blocks. The cores and magnetic blocks are made of Mn-Zn ferrite. When AC sine wave is applied to the driving coils, the time derivative flux is generated within the system, and then induced voltages arise in the position-detecting coils according to the core\`s position. Putting the cores to be moved proportionally to the input displacement, the induced voltage is proportional to input displacement. The parameters that affect the system characteristics are turn ratio, air-gap size, excitation frequency, overlap area, load resistance, capacitance effect, and so forth. Based on the experimental results, the system parameters are selected in such a way as to have high sensitivity ad stable responses. The sensitivity of the proposed inductive displacement-detecting system is greater than 2800mV.V-1mm-1 and the linearity error is below ±0.10% in the range of ±200㎛

A Comparative Study on Publishers’ Adult Book Clubs Marketing Strategies in the UK and South Korea
No full textThis dissertation aims to produce useful advice for publishers who are planning to organise their own reading group. Particularly, I focus on publishers’ book club marketing strategies which are expected to build a strong relationship with consumers and maximize their marketing efficiency.
This research mainly observed publishers’ adult book clubs in the UK and South Korea. These countries have different market situations and historical context, and therefore each publisher performs various marketing activities within their individual tactics and goals. In order to discover useful recommendations which can be mutually beneficial for improving the book club marketing, I analyse similarities and differences of the overall book club trends between these countries.
In Britain, publishers commonly tend to cooperate with existing, already well-organised reading groups, rather than organising their own new book clubs. However, there are several successful publishers’ book clubs operating on social media as well. I mainly observed three publishers’ book clubs: Hurricane Book Club (Pan Macmillan), Page Turners (Penguin Books) and Virago Modern Classic Book Club (Virago). I also interviewed the marketers who are in charge of these book clubs. I found that most book club marketing strategies are functioning effectively in the whole marketing chain. Common book club activities in Britain such as social media campaigns, author events and promotional materials are very well-integrated with the ordinary marketing and PR plans. The book clubs give additional opportunities to promote their titles, and can target specific audiences who voluntarily belong to their book club. This helps publishers to minimise their effort and budget on marketing.
In South Korea, although private reading groups have been fewer than in Western countries, these are recently getting popular with the younger generation. The boom of reading groups met the needs of Korean publishers that had been seeking a method to reduce marketing costs. Furthermore, book clubs which can build a consumer relationship without retailers strongly attracted publishers. Over the past few years, several publishers started organising their own book clubs. I mainly analysed three publishers’ book clubs: Minum Book Club (Minumsa), Book Club Munhakdongne (Munhakdongne) and Chaegingnundang (Changbi) and also interviewed three marketers who are in charge of these book clubs. The most distinctive feature throughout the overall Korean trend is that a paid membership model is thriving. Based on a large budget from their annual fee, publishers could provide numerous giveaways and events for their members exclusively. These book club activities reinforced loyalty of their brands. Furthermore, several gigantic book clubs drew huge attention from media and the public, so their brand awareness is enhanced as well.
The analysis of the book club activities potentially provides useful marketing advice for publishers in both countries. British publishers might consider the paid membership which can provide rich giveaways and events without a huge financial burden. This membership model also gives more opportunities to build a solid brand reputation. Publishers in South Korea should consider how they design the book club activities to harmonise with the whole marketing plan of their company in order to manage the heavy workload they put into their book club. They also need to put more effort into concentrating on generating a buzz about the titles they want to highlight

Direct exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlodibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD) increases infectivity of human erythrocytes to a malarial parasite
No full textDirect exposure to 10 nM 2,3,7,8-TCDD caused a 75% increase and a 2-fold increase in the infectivity of isolated human erythrocytes to P. falciparum after 48 hours when the parasites were in an unsynchronized or synchronized state of growth, respectively. Treatment of human erythrocytes with 10 μM sodium orthovanadate (NaOV), an inhibitor of plasma membrane Ca-ATPase and phosphotyrosine phosphatase, decreased parasitemia by 30%. Co-treatment of RBCs with TCDD and NaOV completely blocked the TCDD-induced increase in parasitemia. Because erythrocytes are anucleated, these results are discussed as evidence for biochemical changes by TCDD without requiring the activation of gene products.open
