| Abstract | In the course of the study of polymer crystallization at high pressure, oriented crystallization of extended chain crystals of polyethylene were examined. Molten polyethylene were extruded into a die at a few hundred atm, and follwed by crystallization by high pressure application above 3000 atm. Resulting sample shows chain orientation to extruded direction. Thick lamella nearly a few thousand angstrom, which are typical feature of high pressure crystallization, were observed to be stacked parallel each other. In spite of favorable condition for crystals to grow to chain direction, remarkable growth to normal direction to them were also observed. |

| Abstract | Characteristics of iron losses in silicon steel due to inclined rotating fluxes and distorted ones are described. Iron losses due to rotating fluxes have been measured at various conditions for grain-oriented and non-oriented silicon steels by using an improved thermistor-bridge method. Loss measurements indicate that the iron loss due to the inclined rotating flux is greater than that due to the non-inclined one. However, the iron loss due to the distorted rotating flux is not always greater than that due to the non-distorted one. |

| Abstract | The assumption that vocational aptitude changed with age and with the kind of occupation was examined from the tendency of the fitted curve for the score of the aptitude test. 9 vocational aptitudes were measured by the general vocational aptitude test by Japan Labor Ministry. Subjects were 382 male workers (design engineers, turners, welders, can manufacturing workers, and crane operators) of from 20 to 59 years old, and 348 male and female students (junior high school, vocational school, and university) of from 15 to 19 years old. The design engineers' aptitudes advanced along the quadratic curve until 31 years old, but almost all the aptitudes of the other workers fell along the linear curve with age. The design engineers preserved various aptitudes until 52 years old, the turners 44, and the welders, the can manufacturing workers, and the crane operators 37. The students' aptitudes were equal to those of the workers of from 15 to 25 years old. The workers preserved Spatial aptitude and Numerical aptitude until 45 years old. This could be said in all the occupations here. Further it was made clear from the micromotion study that the influence of age was caused by therbligs |

| Abstract | Effect of the geometrical configuration of wall-reattachment fluidic device on the switching dynamics, the switching time, and its dispersion, was investigated experimentally by using a large scale model. The results obtained can be summarized as follows: 1) The switching time, its dispersion, and switching probability depend upon the connection of the input to the control port. 2) Effect of the vent and splitter on the jet in dynamic switching is explained commonly by using the margin of a given control flow rate to the switching control flow rate. 3) The switching time ,decreases as input increases, whereas its dispersion remains constant except for small input. |

| Abstract | Some behaviors of a lattice soliton in nonlinear L-C ladder lines with abrupt parameter change are investigated. The results of computer and circuit experiments show that in the case of a soliton incident upon the line of larger characteristic impedance and of higher phase velocity in linearized-line-limit, the transmitted wave evolves into larger number of solitons. The experimental results can be well explained by use of both linearization approximation for the line near the junction and the theory by Gardner, Greene, Kruskal and Miura. |

| Abstract | An absorption spectrum of γ-0 band of nitric monoxide of very dilute density was taken. An experimental electronic device showed a distinguishing power of 0.01 ppm through 10 m optical pathlength. By the aid of a data processing based on a principle developed by the authors, this sensitivity does not suffer from coexisting sulfur dioxide, which shares the absorption band with the nitric monoxide. |

| Abstract | A switch element has been developed so that a kilovolt step voltage should be supplied to a 50Ω transmission line with a subnanosecond rise time. The element is of silicon substrate with high purity and a pair of electrodes is attached by the evaporation process. The switch action is performed by the photoconductivity produced by the laser light pulse. This paper deals with a preliminary analysis, manufacturing processes and experimental results of the optoelectronic switch. A performance of 320V output with less than 4 ns risetime was obtained with sufficient persistence for more than 2×10(5) pulse shots. This switch was successfully applied to an optical waveform monitor for laser light pulses giving a resolution less than 2 ns. |

| Abstract | The purposes of this paper are primarily to research on behavior of groundwater flow in saturated and unsaturated zone and to develop the most effective methods for solving groundwater flow problems related to civil engineering practice. The mathematical model provides a finite element solution to two- or threedimensional problems involving transient flow in the saturated and unsaturated domains of nonhomogeneous, anisotropic porous media. Before progressing into the various levels of applications the input data and boundary conditions are discussed and evaluated. To demonstrate the flexibility of the finite element approach and its capability in treating complex situations which are often encountered in the field, the groundwater flow through sand bank at flood water levels and the flow through aquifer due to an excavation were analyzed. As the results there were good qualitative agreements between the numerical results and the informations received. |

| Abstract | This paper describes a method for measuring very small transmission loss of impulsive signals. The correlative fluctuations within input and output signals are eliminated effectively by the analog simultaneous differencer. The difference and normal signals are alternately sampled and accumulated by the digitizer and the microcomputer, that is, the microcomputer 2-channels box-car integrator is realized. The difference and normal accumulated data are transferred to the personal computer, which calculates the ratio of the difference to normal accumulated data, i.e. the estimated attenuation in nepers. By the experiments of electrical and optical impulse transmissions, the minimum measurable attenuations become respectively 2.7×10(-4)NP and 6.0×10(-4)Np. Even the latter value is the smallest so far as the authors know. |

| Abstract | In order to apply the numerical method to practical groundwater flow problem in the field, the hydraulic properties must be estimated. In this paper, new methods of analyzing drawdown tests were developed and illustrated with some examples to determine hydraulic properties of aquifer. Drawdown tests sometimes have to be performed near the boundary of the aquifer or in the much groundwater supplied aquifer. In such instances, the assumption that the aquifer is of infinite areal extent is no longer valid. Therefore the analytical solutions of unsteady flow due to drawdown test are derived in the conception of "Island Model" that the shape of groundwater level is fixed by the circular water supply which is equilibrium with the pumping rate. By using these solutions, new methods of analyzing drawdown tests which are performed in a confined aquifer and an unconfined aquifer were given respectively and the effect of influence region was evaluated. The example analysis to determine permeability and storage coefficient were shown. As the results,the propriety of the solutions is verified comparing the analytical results with the drawdown test data taken from a real aquifer project. |

| Abstract | Algorithms for system identification applying throughout Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to the major calculating operations are introduced. It is shown that by using data of about as twice length as system settling time and by truncating the incorrect correlation functions resulting from them, errors owing to finiteness of data can be avoided. It is shown that so as to suppress the effects owing to statistical fluctuation of input data or output noise, superposition of data in frequency domain is effective, and also the damping terms of poles or zeros can be efficiently evaluated by utilizing the phase change of the spectra of the impulse response sequence. The proposed method can be efficiently applied to relatively higher order systems or relatively rapidly time-variant systems because of high accuracy and high speed processing of FFT. Moreover, it needs not to assume the order of the system a priori, and yields a reasonable lower order approximating system in itself. |

| Abstract | In this paper the discharge coefficient of a sluice gate placed at the sudden expansion of an open channel is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Lateral and vertical expansions are treated in the study. The coefficients obtained for channels with sudden expansion are compared with those for the straight channel. For free efflux, experimental results show that the coeffcients for expanded channels are always larger than those for a straiaht one,and that the coefficient for a channel to be fully expanded to both lateral and vertical directions takes about 1.2 times larger value than that for a straight one. For submerged efflux, the coefficient is obtained theoretically by using the efflux model shown in this study. The theoretical results explain the experimental ones fairly well. The coefficient for lateral expansion is always smaller than that for a straight channel. The minimum downstream water depth required to submerged efflux for the expanded channels becomes smaller than that for a straight channel. |

| Abstract | In this paper, ozonation of organic substances which are found in wastewater is discussed regarding following respects; (1)removal ratios of COD(Cr) and TOC, (2)removal properties, and (3)oxidation products. The main results are summarized as follows. (l)Ozonation quickly removes proteins and amino acids, but mildly polysaccharides and n-saturated carboxylic acids. (2)The initial removal of COD(Cr) or TOC is quite rapid, but, as the reaction continues, it slows down so drasti-cally that one may suspect that it has completed. (3)Starch and albumine are decomposed to the smaller molecular compounds. (4)The COD(Cr) /TOC ratio of each substance which is chosen in this study decreases. This means that ozonation results in the formation of oxygenated fragments of the original molecule-occurs by bond fission or partial oxidation. (5)Proteins are indispensable components in frothing because they are surface active. They are removed by not only oxidation but also foaming, however, the removal by foaming is not so large. |

| Abstract | The purposes of this paper are primarily to research on behavior of groundwater flow in saturated and unsaturated zone, and to present the fundamentals of the theory of groundwater flow. This paper discusses the physics of the saturated-unsaturated groundwater motion. Evaluations confirm the early belief that Darcy's law is of the nature of statistical result giving the empirical equivalent of Navier-Stokes equations. The governing equation of saturated-unsaturated flow in porous media is derived from the law of mass conservation and from the Darcy's law and Richard's equation of motion and is compared with the Klute's diffusion equation which has been widely used in the analysis of unsaturated flow. As a result; it is concluded that the governing equation has the advantage that can be applied for the whole flow region. Typical boundary conditions are enumerated. |

| Abstract | This paper deals with the experimental study of hydraulic properties of unsaturated soil. In treating unsaturated zone, a great deal more data are required than are required for the saturated zone, but these properties of soils must be known to apply the finite element approach to actual groundwater flow problems. The purposes of this paper are to propose a rational basis of getting experimental relationships between prossure head() and hydraulic conductivity(K) and between pressure head() and volumetric moisture content(θ) with "the instantaneous profile method" in a laboratory. An apparatus was constructed and test procedures were developed to measure pressure head and volumetric moisture content by using pressure transducers and low-energy gamma ray attenuation. The technique of a low-energy gamma radiation apparatus does provide a means for accurate measurement of water content without disturbing the system into which water is moving. Furthermore rapid measurement of water content becomes possible at any position in a soil so that water content changes with time may easily be followed. The tensiometer~transducer system provides a most valuable means of measuring pressure head with rapid response and with provision of a complete record of the pressure head changes with time. |

| Abstract | The amorphous Fe(100-x)B(x) alloys with 18 ≤ x ≤ 42 were prepared by applying a rf-sputtering technique. The chemical composition of the sputtered films was well controlled by varying the area ratio of B plate to Fe plate, which were used as a composite target. The crystallization temperature of the amorphous films linearly rises with increasing of B content up to x = 36, but falls in a composition range of 36 ≤ x ≤ 42. The amorphous Fe(100-x)B(x) films exhibited ferromagnetism in the whole compositions studied in the present work. The internal magnetic field of the amorphous films decreases with increasing of B content, since the charge transfer increases with B atom in the system Fe(100-x)B(x). |

| Abstract | Grinding force has a close relation to grinding inputs such as grinding wheel, work material, interference condition, grinding speed, grinding fluid and machine condition, and therefore varies widely with grinding inputs. On the other hand, grinding force affects significantly grinding outputs which are efficiency and quality evaluated with surface roughness, accuracy, surface integrity and so on. It is important to make clear the relations between grinding inputs and grinding force in order to control grinding outputs. In this paper, from the above point of view, the relations between grinding inputs and grinding force are experimentally investigated. It is pointed out that the normal grinding force, the tangential grinding force and its ratio are determined by the product of speed ratio of work speed to wheel speed and setting depth of cut as for interference conditions, and by the product of square of dressing feed and cutting depth of. dresser as for dressing conditions. Furthermore as for characteristics of work materials, the normal grinding force has a close relation to the yield stress, and the force ratio is related to the elongation of work material. |

| Abstract | A new method based on the principle of flow injection analysis is presented for the semiautomated determination of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in environmental water samples. The method is rapid and continuous, and suitable for the monitoring of COD in wastewaters. The apparatus used was simply constructed by parts commercially available for high performance liquid chromatography. Teflon tubing heated with a boiling water was used as a reactor and simultaneously used for mixing coils and transmission lines. The operating conditions were examined to apply the determination of COD in wastewaters by using glucose as a standard COD substance. The procedures recommended are as follows: Both 4.9x10(-4) M potassium permanganate and 6.7 % sulfuric acid solutions are individually pumped, 20 μl of a sample solution is injected into the flow of the sulfuric acid solution, and then mixed with a mixing joint. The mixed solution is transported to a flow cell situated in a spectrophotometer fixed at a wavelength of 525 nm, and decrements of absorbance are recorded. The peaks were reproducibly obtained at a concentration range of 10 - 200 mg-COD 1(-1). Chloride up to 1000 mg 1(-1) was not interfered at all. Various wastewater samples were analyzed by the proposed method at a sampling rate of 30 samples per hour, and the apparent COD values obtained were compared with the manual COD ones obtained by JIS method. |

| Abstract | In the case of non-invasive measurement of bioelectric potential from body surface, the influence of the skin impedance has been investigated by using strict equivalent circuits of skin impedances. The relationship between the characteristic of skin impedance and the wave distortion was made clear. Furthermore, in the case of electrocardiograph, the shift potential of indifferent electrode to standard potential was obtained by means of simulation, and the distortions caused by connective resistances of a central terminal and skin impedance were quantitatively explained. |

| Abstract | The aim of this paper is to propose new automatic mesh generator for the finite element analysis of threedimensional structures consisted of plates and beams. The strategy of the proposed one is as followings; Firstly, subdivide the structure into two-dimensional and one-dimensional structural components. Secondly, generate mesh pattern for each of them, and finally combine them so that they reconstruct the original configuration. By using the proposed method the modeling of, for example, steel bridge structures for Finite Element Analysis is easily and also fastly completed. Some examples of the application of the proposed method are presented, and from the examination of the results further important informations for the design of better method are also given in this paper. |
