The Cam-Clay model for isothermal mechanical behaviour of clays has been extended to take account the effects temperature on stressstrain behaviour. assumptions used in constructing new are based published results and data presented paper. allows prediction how heating cooling affect volume changes, pore-water pressures, strengths both normally consolidated overconsolidated saturated clays. It permits modelling observed reductions overconsolidation ratio with increasing temperature....
Abstract To enhance local flood disaster mitigation, participatory approaches for community‐based risk communication are proposed using the workshops based on a Plan‐Do‐Check‐Action (PDCA) cycle. In our case study, floods due to heavy rain and river flooding was implemented at Kosen community in Kumamoto City, Japan, during 2006–2007. A hazard evacuation route map were produced verified through virtual desktop drills. The fundamental resident data obtained drills analyzed with respect timing...
Normalized pulse volume (NPV) derived from the ear has potential to be a practical index for monitoring daily life stress. However, NPV not yet been validated. Therefore, we compared an finger using transmission photoplethysmography as reference, with middle and four sites of reflection during baseline while performing cold warm water immersion in ten young six middle-aged subjects. The results showed that logarithmically-transformed (lnNPV) values was significantly lower, only at finger,...
Two models are proposed for describing the stress–strain behavior of sand–bentonite (buffer) mixtures at elevated temperatures: (1) isothermal pseudoelasticity and (2) elastic-plasticity. Data to support come from consolidated undrained triaxial compression tests performed on dense saturated buffer specimens effective confining stresses up 9.0 MPa temperatures 26°, 65°, 100 °C. Measurements indicate that volumes decrease with increasing temperature if carried out under drained conditions....
Taking a bath sometimes poses risk for subjects with chronic cardiopulmonary disorders, due to the thermal effect and water pressure on his/her body. The ECG measurement would be helpful early recognition of abnormal cardiac beats respiratory conditions. This paper describes new attempt improve previous bathtub techniques that had electrodes placed inside were intrusive subjects’ bathing experience. study is concerned initial development method measure an electrocardiogram (ECG) through tap...
We report a new methodology for detecting heat illness based on continuous tympanic temperature monitoring. This is relevant to industrial workers, astronauts, and pilots, as well athletes. Here we evaluate the method in Grand Touring (GT) car racers closed-cockpit category who can face life-threatening hyperthermia.The system comprises an earpiece containing infrared-radiation-type thermometer microspeaker. In 10 healthy subjects, using temperature-controlled water bath laboratory,...
The demand for ubiquitous healthcare monitoring has been increasingly raised prevention of lifestyle-related diseases, acute life support or chronic therapies inpatients and/or outpatients having disorder and home medical care. From these view points, we developed a non-conscious system without any attachment biological sensors operations devices, an ambulatory postural changes activities system. Furthermore in this study, order to investigate those applicability the monitoring, have new...
Abstract Selective identification of men with clinically significant prostate cancer (sPC) is a pivotal issue. Development risk model for detecting sPC based on the imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) bi-parametric magnetic resonance (bpMRI) clinical parameters in Japanese cohort expected to prove beneficial. We retrospectively analyzed bpMRI findings from 773 biopsy-naïve patients between January 2011 December 2016. A was established using multivariate logistic regression analysis...
The effectiveness of nivolumab plus ipilimumab for metastatic renal cell carcinoma with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus remains unclear.A 75-year-old male was diagnosed and treated ipilimumab. mass regressed all pulmonary nodules except one lesion diminished. To avoid thrombotic complications, radical nephrectomy thrombectomy were performed. No viable malignant cells revealed histopathologically. Although continued after the surgical interventions, remaining did not change. Considering...
As a model problem of the stationary free boundary for Navier–Stokes equations in vessel whose wall has contact with surface, we are concerned this paper value Stokes an infinite sector slip and stress conditions. Existence unique solution is proved weighted Sobolev spaces by means Mellin transform.
Introduction Cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma is a multilocular cystic variant of Wilms tumor that always presents in children. However, we encountered an elderly patient with nephroblastoma. Therefore, report it. Case presentation A 74‐year‐old male presented left renal detected ultrasonography. Contrast‐enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed 4 cm septa, which suggested cell carcinoma. performed radical nephrectomy. The definitive diagnosis was...
The present, we are left various problem and subjects when go ahead with city planning of welfare.For example, there many factors stairs, slopes so on. Their problems prevent user a wheel chair from running comfortably in the city. Especially, on sidewalk, This study states one important problems, that is direction slope. For front free wheel, some usually take acts revising line. We think users burdened this action seriously. purpose study.I make clear relevance to moving speed.the locus...
Recently, many researchers focus on glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) and carbon (CFRP) materials because these have superior mechanical properties. Therefore, their electrical insulation performance must be revealed. Especially, the discharge which occurred under barriers has not been So, we investigated phenomena GFRP CFRP barriers. In this study, used a needle-plane short air gap in chamber. The barrier was placed 2 mm below brass needle electrode 5 above plane electrode. Synthetic (N...
This special issue of the Journal Disaster Research focuses on disaster storytelling, an emerging concept in risk reduction. Despite its popularity and importance, individual practices activities, as they tend to be spontaneous local, have received only limited attention from academia not been given by research community. The papers included this volume contain multi-dimensional discussions including ones that focus concepts theory, functions museums, tourism, local communities, UNESCO...
「軌道用敷石」とは，近代の都市交通の主役を担ってきた路面電車に欠かせない「板石舗装」〔1957（昭和32）年には全国の軌道敷舗装の78.84%を占めていた〕の表層に用いられる舗装材である．板石舗装用材として最も普及した軌道用敷石は，路面電車を支えてきた重要な石材だった．本研究ではこれまであまり研究されてこなかった軌道用敷石の体系化の基礎資料として，軌道用敷石の規格と産地を調査し，整理することを目的とした．その結果，軌道用敷石は舗装材の要求性能を満たす仕様（材質，形状，寸法，許容差，仕上げ）が明確な規格品であり，国内の主要6ヶ所の産地（茨城県稲田，群馬県沢入，山梨県塩山，岐阜県恵那，広島県倉橋島，香川県小豆島）から明治から昭和にかけて全国に供給された花崗岩であることが明らかになった．
