In this study, we present the development of a compact and lightweight nanosecond pulsed power supply designed to improve performance plasma actuators for flow control on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). While traditional AC supplies are commonly used in actuators, offer advantage operating over wider range Reynolds numbers, making them highly desirable.

A superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) is very attractive for use in high-energy-resolution photon detectors because of its small energy gap. To detect a single photon, the Josephson current STJ has had to be suppressed by an external magnetic field.

乳牛の繁殖と牛乳の尿素濃度(尿素態窒素,Milk urea-nitrogen; MUN)との関係を解明するため,民間の3牧場において14ヵ月間にわたり毎月1回ずつ個体ごとの牛乳試料を採取した(148頭から延べ1,091点).この間に人工授精された129頭につきMUNと受胎の関係を追跡した.別途,12カ所の牧場においてバルク乳を毎月1回ずっ1年間にわたり採取し,そのMUNと当該サンプル時(月)の受胎率(月間の授精が4頭以上の場合)の関係を調べた.その結果,(1) 個体別のMUNは4~23mg/dlの範囲にあった.MUNが18mg/dl以上の牛では受胎例がなかったが,それ以下においては受胎成績との関係を認めず,乳蛋白質率と受胎成績にも関係がなかった.(2) バルク乳(144例)のMUNは8~16mg/dlの範囲にあり,このうち1ヵ月に4頭以上に授精を行なったのは62例あったが,バルク乳のMUNと受胎率には関係を認めなかった.以上,MUNが18mg/dl以上の乳牛では受胎例がなかったが,バルク乳のMUNが8~16mg/dlの範囲では牛群の受胎率には影響ないものと思われた.
コークス炉内熱および物質移動現象の解明を目的として, 軟化溶融層・セミコークス層の粘性, 軟化溶融層の膨張および物性値の熱分解反応率依存性を考慮したコークス塊内熱応力モデルを開発した.また小型乾留炉を用いた実験を行いコークス層変形挙動を観察・測定した.その結果物性値を熱分解反応率依存で与えた場合は, 温度依存で与えた場合と比較して昇温速度が大きい場合でも変位挙動を良好に再現したため, 熱物性値の熱分解反応率依存性を考慮する必要性が示された.またクリープ解析結果は弾性解析結果と比較して実験値と良好に一致し, 乾留過程における塊変形挙動解析を行うためには軟化溶融層・セミコークス層の粘性を考慮する必要があることが示された.さらに加熱壁の拘束を与えた場合の最大主応力の推算結果は, 実験の傾向と定性的に一致し, 本解析モデルおよび壁面拘束方法の妥当性が示された.
