The purpose of this study was to study and compare problems of members of community Phya Prasit towards saving in two aspects: knowledge of saving and perspective of saving. The samples were classified by gender age occupation status education and monthly income. The samples in this research were 126 members of community Phya Prasit. The study participants selected by simple random sampling. The test with 23 items and questionnaires of rating scales with 24 items were used as the research instrument. Percentage mean standard deviation t - test for independent sample F - test and Scheffe’s test analysis were statistical method to analyze data. The results were as follows: 1. Since income of the members of community were relatively low no extra revenue and debt to be paid. So guidelines for the development on savings were as follows: training to make plan for savings promote to make the household account training to make extra money training planned to spending and training to make the knowledge of investment. 2. Problems of members of community Phya Prasit towards saving: in aspect of knowledge on saving of members of community were relatively low while perspective of saving was in a great extent. 3. There were significant difference for problems of members of community Phya Prasit in aspect of knowledge of saving at the 0.05 level among members of community Phya Prasit in different gender and different age. 4. There was significant difference for problems of members of community Phya Prasit in aspect of perspective of saving at the 0.05 level among members of community Phya Prasit in different occupation.

Kansei engineering or effective engineering is an important product development methodology in which users’ or customers’ feelings and demands on the product are translated into important parameters for product design. On the other hand effective engineering is an application of users’ opinion mood and feelings in product design which seems to guarantee that the product will meet the demand of customers. This idea was first developed in early 1970s in Japan. Now it is widely used in both Asian countries such as Japan Korea Taiwan and European countries such as Sweden Spain and France. It is widely used in various fields like applied science and psychological science. This paper discusses the application of Kansei engineering in various daily-used products in both Japanese and Western lifestyles. The perspectives presented in this article are based on the authors’ engineering knowledge.

The objective of this research was to develop a high performance monitoring software for extended database of mobile weather station by using embedded computer. The monitoring system could measure and record temperature relative humidity wind speed and direction rainfall solar radiation and UV index. The software could convert these parameters and sent them from mobile unit to base unit within 60meters distance via 868.0MHz of radio frequency. The embedded computer was used as for database and host of the monitoring software. This software was developed by using LabVIEW with large MySQL database. The software could work perfectly. That is it could monitor and display any parameter in real time in both graphic and numerical data. It could also produce a report in correct format of research information. The Monitor system could work with the embedded computer. The mobile weather station could be used in remote areas with photovoltaic energy system and storage battery specially designed for them.

This research was aimed to investigate for pineapple leaf paper drying. In this study process of drying the paper as a final step after the other. Paper drying time takes in solar energy to dry naturally for at least 2-3 days or more without natural sunshine. Solar hybrid energy dryer was designed for drying faster than traditional drying. The development of solar hybrid energy dryer ability to operate continuously. The solar dryer receives the heat from sunshine by passing into the solar panel dimension 1 x 2.6 m2 . The panel was installed on the top of the oven which declined 15 degree from the ground. The dimension of the oven is 1 x 1.05 x 1.30 m3 and have added heat to paraphrase another 2 rooms and heater 4 kW with controller and have added heat to paraphrase another 2 rooms. The dryer installed heater 4 kW with temperature controller and blower 0.22 kW serves as the circulation of heat in the oven to constant flow of 0.138 m3 / s. Experiment research test 3 types ; the use of solar energy alone the use of solar heater with a temperature of 50 55 and 60 °C and the heater only at 50 55 and 60 °C with three temperature settings. The variables in the study such as temperature humidity in the dryer humidity and Solar energy affect the pineapple leaf paper drying time. Experimental results from solar heater hybrid with 60 °C temperature setting was dried in minimum period of 3 hours and half at an average initial moisture content 1043.70% db to the final moisture content of 9.12% db. Highest average temperature in the dryer was 64.33 °C with electrical energy consumption 10.5 kWh. The use of only solar drying was dried in maximum period of 5 hours at an average initial moisture content 1070.98% db to the final moisture content of 15.84% db. Highest average temperature in the dryer was 39.89 °C with minimum electrical energy consumption 10.5 kWh.

Thailand’s gem and jewelry industry is widely considered one of the greatest potential markets in the world. One of the important processes is producing the body jewellery or casting. The lost-wax castingtechnique is a popular technique used widely. However it can also be a source of many defects such as porosity tarnishing incomplete form filling and water stain. There is not finding causes of problems affecting the cost of production labor energy and time increased. This research aims to study the production problems and deficiencies of work piece in the actual work from10 casting industriesto identifying and preventing all these problems. This study will be helpful to entrepreneurs gems and jewelry industry to use as guidelines to prevent defects reduce waste reduce production costs and improve the casting process for the piece even more quality. The study found that most of the production process is the main the machinery / equipment and material problems the problem of secondary respectively by this process the main problem is the casting and foundry molds the injection and the candles prototype and mold making rubber the order is a minor respectively work piece for defects in castings are very common a flaw was found in the specimens I have a 6 specimen defects found in wax and defects found in rubber molds and prototypes the defect occurs in each style be caused by a wide variety of cases. Problems encountered in this study the most hole of the shrinkage problem problem of casting porosity the hole of the bubble the cracking problem the cast is not full the problem is the ceiling.
