In recent years, many people have shown greater interest in plant-based proteins because of their health benefits and lower impact on the environment. This study will look at the physical and chemical properties of chickpeas and red beans. It will also create a plant-based burger that tastes and feels similar to meat-based burgers while providing comparable nutrition. We will steam the ingredients and then analyze important properties such as texture, color, water activity (aW), pH, and how well they retain water and oil. Additionally, we will conduct a sensory evaluation to understand consumer preferences.

The railway brake system usually uses compressed air brake system which uses high-pressure air to press the brake shoe on the surface of the wheel to reduce the speed of the train. Repeated friction generates heat at the contact surface, increasing thermal stress on the cast iron brake shoe. The purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal stress on a prototype of cast iron brake shoe using the finite element method compare the analytical results to the actual brake shoe and redesign a brake shoe prototype to reduce thermal stress. Based on the results of the thermal stress study using the finite element method, it has shown that the location of the thermal stress on the prototype brake shoe according to the location of the crack on the real brake shoe. The brake shoe's design which includes single notch in the center of brake shoe which is can help to reduce thermal stress. The results from this study should be validated with the results from the field test to evaluate both of thermal distribution and braking efficiency in term of braking distances as well.

This project presents the development of a single-frequency GPS-based total electron content measurement tool. It applies theories related to total electron content in the ionospheric layer and the measurement of total electron content using GPS time delay to design the single-frequency GPS total electron content measurement tool. The tool consists of an antenna, a single-frequency GPS satellite receiver, a data processing unit for evaluating and calculating total electron content, and a display unit for showing total electron content data. The performance of the single-frequency GPS total electron content measurement tool is tested by comparing it with total electron content data obtained from the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model, which is a global reference model for electron content. The tool is also put to practical use. The results of the comparison and practical applications conclude that the single-frequency GPS-based total electron content measurement tool can be effectively utilized, with the difference from the IRI model being 50 TECU

The design site of 22 hectares of agricultural land in this area is located in Tatata District, Iglenburg Province. The design concept of this area aims to encourage farmers and communities to earn income from the agricultural products produced in this area, and emphasizes that this area is a "living market", which can not only create food from a variety of crops, but also establish a balanced ecosystem and promote biodiversity in this area. The market will become a sustainable market area, which is not only beneficial to society in promoting economy, but also beneficial to the environment. The area will serve as a social and learning center, where community members can fully exchange agricultural information and experience and stimulate the economy in the community in another way.

Cancer is one of the major health issues in Thailand, particularly as the country enters an aging society. The risk of chronic diseases among the elderly often results in limitations in treatment, making it difficult for most patients to achieve a complete recovery. This necessitates continuous care and the provision of accurate information and guidance about cancer. However, current health record systems for patients lack effective interconnectivity, which hinders data analysis and the development of patient care models. Additionally, incorrect information about cancer spread across social media can lead to misunderstandings among elderly patients. To address these issues, researchers have developed a chatbot system that utilizes Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology to understand human language and accurately respond to questions about elderly cancer patient care. The chatbot provides reliable and up-to-date information based on medical knowledge sourced from a database reviewed by healthcare professionals. Furthermore, a web application has been developed to record and analyze patient assessments according to medical standards, enabling healthcare providers to plan and develop appropriate treatment approaches in a better way. This system also facilitates data sharing and connectivity across hospital systems, allowing information to be used to enhance the precision and modernity of treatment approaches. In addition, the chatbot acts as an assistant, providing information and guidance to patients, reducing the workload of healthcare staff in answering questions and encouraging patients to take a more active role in managing their own health.

This research confirms the potential of bamboo fiber as a sustainable raw material for the textile industry, demonstrating exceptional properties that meet both functional requirements and environmental friendliness. The study focuses on integrating sustainability concepts with material innovation, encompassing fiber property analysis, production process development, and product design. The research objectives were to: 1) develop the properties of bamboo fiber for production; 2) study factors in designing environmentally friendly textile products from bamboo fiber; and 3) forecast future prospects for environmentally friendly textile product design using bamboo fiber. The findings revealed that 60-day-old bamboo possessed optimal properties for fiber separation, with an average fiber size of 5.32 μm, smaller than other natural fibers, resulting in superior moisture absorption and ventilation properties. When blended with recycled polyester fiber in a 30:70 ratio, the yarn exhibited strength and unique tactile characteristics. Although the antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus were low, the fibers demonstrated excellent whiteness and softness. Factor analysis identified four key components in product design: Local Materials, Green Products, Healthy, and Sustainability. Consumer satisfaction evaluation of the prototype products showed high levels of acceptance, with the model explaining 84.7% of consumer satisfaction. The developed production process reduced chemical usage and hazardous waste. Furthermore, utilizing fast-growing bamboo minimized long-term environmental impact, contributing to sustainable development in Thailand's rural communities across economic, environmental, and occupational stability dimensions. The research demonstrates that developing bamboo fiber blended with recycled polyester creates sustainable products that meet consumer demands for health consciousness, local material utilization, and green product promotion. Commercial implementation of these products can enhance economic value and promote environmentally friendly product development in the future.

This study aims to investigate the encapsulation of anthocyanins in water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsions and their spray-drying process to enhance anthocyanin stability against external factors such as light, temperature, and pH changes. The W/O/W emulsion was prepared using suitable surfactants and dried using a spray dryer at an inlet temperature of 120–140°C and an outlet temperature not lower than 80°C. The results showed that the composition ratios of water, oil, and surfactants significantly influenced the physical and chemical properties of the emulsion, as well as the encapsulation efficiency of anthocyanins. The spray-dried W/O/W emulsion demonstrated effective anthocyanin retention and improved long-term stability, making it applicable for food and health-related products.

This piece represents the collection of all human elements, applied to design for maximum efficiency, following the principles of Modern designers who embraced the famous phrase "Form follows Function." Every line and structure of the design is carefully considered for user comfort and practical use, while reflecting the idea that the user's experience is central to the design process. The beauty emerges from the harmony between function and form, not only meeting functional needs but also enhancing the aesthetic of Modernist design in a complete and meaningful way.
