This paper describes the numerical simulation results of tidal current and water exchange in the Seto Inland Sea. Two kinds of computational conditions were prescribed at the open boundary. One is the simple sinusoidal waves of M2 component for Case-1, and another is the composite waves by 28 tidal components for Case-2. Then water exchange computations between the Seto Inland Sea water and Pacific Ocean water were carried out by using the computed flow field of Case-1. In this study, following conclusions are obtained. The computed tidal harmonic constants of M2 component for both cases agree with the observed harmonic constants of M2 component. Around narrow strait, tidal residual flow of Case-2 is larger than that of Case-1 because of the non-linearity of tidal current. The particles thrown into the computed flow field of Case-2 are more dispersed and transported than those of Case-1 by the influence of the non-linearity of tidal current and tidal residual flow. Comparing the computed salinity distribution with the observed salinity distribution, the case of the diffusion coefficient of 500 m2/s gives the most appropriate result. Using these computed flow field and substance dispersion result, the residence time of the Seto Inland Sea is estimated about 200 days.

This paper employs data on patent applications for the glass industry’s float process from 1954 through 2015. Furthermore, it assesses whether the S-curve of technological progress emerges. Assigning time to the horizontal axis, something like the S-curve emerges in the US and Europe but not in Japan. The S-curve represents the physical limits of technology. Specifically, Foster (1986) defined the S-curve as the function that expresses the relation between the amount of effort expended toward performance improvement and its outcome. The magnitude of the effort expended depends on the company as well as social factors. This paper performs company-level analysis using actual data to examine (1) the extent to which companies respond to the demands of the market and (2) the effect of the grant-back clauses in licensing agreements suggested by Ogami (2015).

Once a company begins its development process, putting products into the market as quickly as possible to get a return on investment is the fundamental corporate activity. A product’s time to market can be categorized into the development time for the product and production processes and production ramp-up time. Existing studies have focused on reducing development time by primarily increasing efficiency. However, no matter how much a company shortens its development time, there may be a delay in the return on investment if production ramp-up takes too much time. This paper analyzes the processes of Hyundai Steel, a major Korean steel manufacturer. Moreover, it examines the process of its implementation of blast furnace technology through mass production. The company used a strategy that maximized the learning effect by implementing three blast furnaces with the same specifications in succession and without delay. They planned to implement the blast furnaces with no overlap in the implementation schedule, which enabled the same ramp-up team to start up production successively. Thus, the team was able to leverage the experience gained in ramping up one blast furnace for ramp-ups of subsequent blast furnaces. This learning effect enabled them to successfully reduce the ramp-up time linearly, as shown on a semilog graph.

早期の段階での算数に焦点を当て通常の学級で実施するアセスメントを開発した。本研究では多層指導モデルMIM(海津, 2010; 海津・田沼・平木・伊藤・Vaughn, 2008)のプログレス・モニタリング(PM)としての機能を有するかについて検証した。対象は小学校1年生400名。MIM-PM算数版を年間通じて定期的に実施した。妥当性の検証では反復測定による分散分析の結果, 実施回における主効果が認められ, 回を経るごとに得点が高くなる傾向が示された。標準化された学力検査算数とも比較的高い相関があった。また, 既存のMIM-PM読み版とテスト・バッテリーを組み, 双方の得点傾向から3群(算数困難群, 高学力群, 低学力群)に分類し, 比較分析を行った。3群の学力検査算数の得点でも差異がみられた。算数困難群は全体の5.15%であった。実施回×学力特性群の2要因混合計画の分散分析を行った結果, 有意な交互作用, 2要因とも主効果が認められた。MIM-PM算数版の実施により把握できた算数困難群や低学力群は, 高学力群のような有意な得点上昇が一貫してみられなかったが, 当該学習に関する直接的な指導が実施されている期間では有意な伸びが確認された。MIM-PM算数版の活用でつまずきの早期把握の可能性が示唆された。

A small displacement, about two meters or less, of a manganese ore deposit is called "Hitokase Danso", meaning "one-frame fault". The movement on the fault had evidently occurred before the manganese deposit was formed, and most of the shear zones have been mineralized by various manganese ores. The manganese ore deposit itself, therefore, has not been displaced by the fault movement, although slickensides on such later formed manganese minerals indicate the renewed movement of minor scale along the one-frame fault.

Decreases in saliva secretion compromise food mastication and swallowing, reduce mucosal immune function, and increase the risk for oral diseases like dental caries. Chlorella is a green alga that contains a variety of nutrients including amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. In our previous study, Chlorella-derived multicomponent supplementation did not affect salivary flow rates in healthy young individuals, but Chlorella-derived supplementation attenuated a decrease in saliva secretion that was observed during a kendo training camp. Hence, we hypothesized that Chlorella-derived supplementation increases saliva secretion in individuals with lower rates of saliva flow. Sixty-four subjects took Chlorella-derived tablets for four weeks. Before and after supplementation, saliva samples were collected by chewing cotton. In the complete study group, there was no difference in saliva production before and after supplementation (1.91 ± 0.11 ml/min before vs 2.01 ± 0.12 ml/min after). Analysis of subgroups based on saliva production before supplementation found an increase in saliva secretion in the lower saliva flow group (1.18 ± 0.06 vs 1.38 ± 0.08 ml/min), but no change in the higher saliva flow group (2.63 ± 0.11 vs 2.64 ± 0.15 ml/min). These results suggest that Chlorella-derived multicomponent supplementation increases saliva production in individuals with lower levels of saliva secretion.

Objective The Great East Japan Earthquake and the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster forced the evacuation of residents and led to many changes in the lifestyle of the evacuees. A comprehensive health check was implemented to support the prevention of lifestyle-related disease, and we analyzed changes in lipid metabolism before and after these disasters. Methods Subjects included Japanese men and women living near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture. Annual health checkups, focusing on metabolic syndromes, were conducted for persons ≥40 years of age by the Heath Care Insures. Results A total of 27,486 subjects underwent a follow-up examination after the disaster, with a mean follow-up of 1.6 years. Following the disaster, the prevalence of hypo-high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterolemia increased significantly from 6.0% to 7.2%. In the hypo-HDL cholesterolemia group, the body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and LDL-C level increased significantly in men after the disaster. On the other hand, in the normal HDL-C level group, the BMI, blood pressure, glucose and lipid metabolism, and liver function were adversely affected. The decrease in HDL-C was significantly greater in evacuees than non-evacuees in the normal HDL-C level group. Furthermore, a multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the evacuation was significantly associated with the incidence of hypo-HDL cholesterolemia. Conclusion This is the first study to evaluate how the evacuation affected the incidence of hypo-HDL cholesterolemia and led to an increase in cardiovascular disease. This information may be important in the follow-up and lifestyle change recommendations for evacuees.

We have been developing a thermo-key system that segments human regions from video in real-time using thermal information. We developed a new segmentation method for this system based on Bayesian estimation, which uses both chroma and thermal information integratively. Segmentation algorithms were previously based on a simple threshold processing of thermal images, which often results in wrong segmentation of objects/environments whose temperatures are close to body temperature. Trained with only a few sets of chroma and thermal images, our algorithm can extract human regions from video with much higher accuracy compared to previous algorithms.

[Purpose] This study investigated the effects of neurofeedback (NFB) and computer-assisted cognitive rehabilitation (CACR) on the relative brain wave ratios and activities of daily living (ADL) of stroke patients. [Subjects and Methods] Forty-four participants were randomly allocated to the NFB (n=14), CACR (n=14), or control (CON) (n=16) groups. Two expert therapists provided the NFB, CACR, and CON groups with traditional rehabilitation therapy in 30-minute sessions, 5 times a week, for 6 weeks. NFB training was provided only to the NFB group and CACR training was provided only to the CACR group. The CON group received traditional rehabilitation therapy only. Before and after 6 weeks of intervention, brain wave and ADL evaluations were performed, and the results were analyzed. [Results] The relative ratio of beta waves, only showed a significant increase in the frontal and parietal areas of the NFB group. Significant changes in ADL were shown by all three groups after the intervention. However, there were no significant differences between the NFB and CACR groups and the CON group. [Conclusion] Our results suggest that CACR and NFB are effective at improving cognitive function and ADL of stroke patients.

The hyper-variable segments (323∼327 bp) of the mitochondrial D-loop for 169 Carassius auratus fishes in Japan were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction and the amplified products were sequenced directly and compared. A dendrogram showing three major clusters was generated with the sequence data for 37 haplotypes at 66 polymorphic sites. One cluster (cluster I) exclusively consisted of the gengorobuna, which was regarded as an independent (sub) species. The triploid ginbuna belonged to two remaining clusters, mainly in the diploid ginbuna cluster (cluster III) and partially in the goldfish cluster (cluster II). This finding suggests that the triploid ginbuna has been derived from two different maternal lineages. The triploid ginbuna was considered to have come into existence during the last ice age on the basis of this phylogenetic data. No geographic differentiation was observed with respect to the triploid ginbuna sampled at three different localities in Japan; the Shibuta River in Kanagawa, Lake Imba in Chiba and Lake Biwa in Shiga. The phylogenetic tree also demonstrated a monophyletic relationship amongst the nigorobuna, the nagabuna and the ginbuna, sharing cluster III. The nigorobuna and nagabuna populations have most likely arisen from geographic and temporal variations within the ginbuna populations. We also discuss the evolutionary origin of the triploid in view of its paternal ancestors.
