Opis:
For an environmental-friendly sustainable society, the global environmental problems should be solved. Here we outline our recent results of environment purification materials with smart functions. For the effective adsorbent for remediation process, zeolite coated with layered double hydroxide (LDH) was prepared by the precipitation of LDH on zeolite-LTA under hydrothermal treatment. This multifunctional material has a possible application for simultaneous uptake of harmful cations and anions, and minimizes environmental pollution during municipal and industrial water management. For novel material for the nuclear waste management, zeolite with hydroxyapatite layers on its surface was obtained by a hydrothermal method on the basis of the cation exchange of Ca2+ in zeolite for NH4+ in solution. The novel nanocomposite is an ideal material for adsorbing and fixing radioactive elements for geological time-scale.

Opis:
The spatial variability of some physicochemical properties of topsoils/subsoils under secondary forest, grassland fallow, and bare-soil fallow of three locations was evaluated. The data were analyzed and described using classical statistical parameters. Based on the coefficient of variation, bulk density, total porosity, 60-cm-tension moisture content, and soil pH were of low variability. Coarse and fine sand were of moderate variability. Highly variable soil properties included silt, clay, macroporosity, saturated hydraulic conductivity, organic matter concentration, and cation exchange capacity. Overall, soil pH and silt varied the least and the most, respectively. Relative weighting showed that location dominantly influenced the soil variability, except for soil porosity and organic matter concentration influenced mostly by land use. Most of the soil data were normally distributed; others were positively skewed and/or kurtotic. The minimum number of samples (at 25 samples ha-1) required to estimate mean values of soil properties was highly soil property-specific, ranging from 1 (topsoil pH-H2O) to 246 (topsoil silt). Cation exchange capacity of subsoils related fairly strongly with cation exchange capacity of topsoils (R2 = 0.63). Spatial variability data can be used to extrapolate dynamic soil properties across a derived-savanna landscape.

Opis:
Lowland sawah farmers often puddle to improve soil hydrophysical conditions for rice, but the puddling intensity beyond which no extra yield increases occur is unknown. Agro- nomic effects of six mechanical puddling intensities were assessed in three Nigerian inland-valley bottoms. All puddled plots, irrespec- tive of intensity, produced similar effects at all three locations. At 10 days after transplanting, soil bulk density of all puddled plots re- presented mean decreases relative to control plots of about 22.4, 15.8, and 31.7% at Akaeze, Adani, and Ejeti, respectively. Soil bulk density and moisture content upon saturation were similar during 40-120 days after transplanting. All puddled plots consistently showed taller plants and greater tillering than control plots only at Ejeti. Grain yields were similar among treatments in Akaeze and Adani (mean, 3.71 and 6.42 Mg ha -1 , respectively), but one-pass puddling yielded numerically highest in both locations. At Ejeti, grain yields followed the trend for plant growth, with mean values of 4.36 and 1.81 Mg ha -1 for puddled and control plots, respecti- vely. One-pass puddling may be sufficient for sawah rice grown late particularly in less humid environments.

Opis:
Two contrasting approaches toward an epidemic study were illustrated as a pilot study; the regression analysis which is rather conventional methodology used in the past/present epidemic studies, and the other is the classifier analysis which is in the soft computing toolbox. The dataset we used for this study is obtained from a part of a cohort study which principally focused on a fatigue syndrome of the elementary and junior high school educates. In the classifier analysis we employed a major supervised machine-learning algorithm, K-Nearest Neighbour (K-NN), coupled with Principal Component Analysis (PCA). As a result, the performance that was found by cross validation method in the classifier analysis provides better results than that of the regression analysis. Finally we discussed the availability of both analyses with referring the technical and conceptual limitation of both approaches.

Opis:
In multi-unit auctions for a single item, the Vickrey–Clarke–Groves mechanism (VCG) attains allocative efficiency but suffers from its computational complexity. Takahashi and Shigeno thus proposed a greedy based approximation algorithm (GBA). In a subject experiment there was truly a difference in efficiency rate but no significant difference in seller’s revenue between GBA and VCG. It is not clear in theory whether each bidder will submit his or her true unit valuations in GBA. We show, however, that in a subject experiment there was no significant difference in the number of bids that obey “almost” truth-telling between GBA and VCG. As for individual bidding behavior, GBA and VCG show a sharp contrast when a human bidder competes against machine bidders; underbidding was observed in GBA, while overbidding was observed in VCG. Some results in a numerical experiment are also provided prior to reporting those observations.

Opis:
We examined optimal cyclic uniaxial stretches for stem cell-to-tenocyte differentiation by applying a wide range of cyclic mechanical stimuli. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) were subjected to three types of cyclic elongation of 5%, 10%, or 15% at a cyclic frequency of 1 Hz for 24 h or 48 h, and differentiation into tenocytes was assessed by two methods: real-time polymerase chain reaction determination of gene expression levels and western blotting analysis of protein expression levels. The gene expression levels of the differentiation markers type I collagen (Col I), type III collagen (Col III), tenascin-C (Tnc), and scleraxis (Scx), all of which are constituents of tendon tissue, were increased when cells were exposed to 10% stretching stimulation. The levels of Col I and Tnc protein synthesis levels were also higher in the cells with 10% stretching stimulation than in those subjected to other stimuli. The results indicated that 10% stretching stimulus was efficient to induce the differentiation of hBMSCs into tenocytes. In addition, the changes in gene and protein expression levels were strongly correlated with cell orientation angle. The results presented here suggest that mesenchymal stem cell-to-tenocyte differentiation is strongly associated with cumulative elongation load on the cells. This work provides novel insights into the differentiation of tenogenesis in a strain-induced environment and supports the therapeutic potential of hBMSCs.

Opis:
Located on the eastern margin of Eurasia, the Japanese Archipelago hosts a unique modern fauna of terrestrial vertebrates including landbirds which show a high proportion of endemic species/subspecies. Despite its potential importance in taxonomy and biogeography, the Pleistocene landbird fossil record has been scarce on Japanese islands, providing little information on the history of the unique fauna in the region. In this study, fossil remains of non-passeriform landbirds from the Middle–Late Pleistocene (Marine Isotope Stages [MIS] 9 and 5e) of Shiriya, northernmost Honshu Island, Japan, are revised with extensive osteological comparisons. As a result, the presence of at least six non-passeriform landbird species, represented by 71 specimens, was confirmed: Syrmaticus sp., Coturnicini gen. et sp. indet., Columbidae gen. et sp. indet., Apus sp., Haliaeetus sp., and Accipitridae gen. et sp. indet. The Shiriya paleoavifauna is the first substantial Pleistocene landbird fauna reported from the central Japanese islands so far, and suggests that the overall landbird fauna in northern Honshu in the last interglacial period (MIS 5e) was not drastically different from the present one, in contrast to the presence of several extinct land mammals and seabirds in the local fauna. The occurrence of Syrmaticus despite the supposedly colder climate in that time than today suggests that the distribution of modern S. soemmerringii might not be totally defined by climatic factors, but probably affected by a biogeographic barrier at the strait between Honshu and Hokkaido islands.

Opis:
We propose a practical simple local navigation system inspired by the sequence learning mechanism of the entorhino-hippocampal system. The proposed system memorizes a route as sequences of landmarks in the same way humans do. The proposed local navigation system includes a local route memory unit, landmark extraction unit, and learning-type matching unit. In the local route memory unit, the concept of the sequence learning mechanism of the entorhino-hippocampal system is implemented using a fully connected network, while a sequence of landmarks is embedded in the connection matrix as the local route memory. This system has two operation modes: learning and recall modes. In learning mode, a sequence of landmarks, i.e. a local route, is represented by enhanced loop connections in the connection matrix. In recall mode, the system traces the stored route comparing current landmarks with the stored landmarks using the landmark extraction and learning-type matching units. The system uses a prospective sequence to match the current landmark sequence with the recalled one. Using a prospective sequence in the route comparison allows confirmation of the correct route and deals with any slight change in the current sequence of landmarks. A certainty index is also introduced for judging the validity of the route selection. We describe a basic update mechanism for the stored landmark sequence in the case of a small change in the local route memory. The validity of the proposed system is confirmed using an autonomous mobile robot with the proposed navigation system.

Opis:
Lubrication can effectively reduce the needed thrust if a discrete layer of lubricant is maintained between a pipe and the excavated soil. A lower frictional force allows greater jacking lengths to be achieved. The reduction of frictional stress around the pipe strongly affects the efficiency of lubrication injection. The lubricant must be designed to form a layer in the surrounding soil, be pressurized to overcome ground water pressure and stabilize the over-cutting area. The lubricant should also fill the over-cutting area completely to minimize surface settlement. However, for a commercial lubricant to be effective, it has been suggested that ingredients such as sodium and potassium be eliminated. As a result, in order that a lubricant does not lose its function as a support against the overburden pressure of an over-cutting area and to enable a reduction in thrust, a higher quality lubricant which can overcome these problems must be developed as soon as possible. In this paper, in order to examine the characteristics and behaviour of a material developed as a lubricant and backfilling for a deeper strata excavation system such as a pipe jacking, a fundamental investigation is performed and the various results are discussed.
Smarowanie może skutecznie zmniejszyć wymagany nacisk jeśli warstwa smaru jest utrzymana pomiędzy rurą a urobkiem. Niższa siła tarcia pozwala na osiągnięcie większych długości podczas mikrotunelingu. Redukcja naprężeń wokół rury silnie wpływa na efektywność wprowadzania smaru. Smar musi być zaprojektowany w taki sposób, aby tworzyć warstwę w otaczającej glebie, musi być wtłaczany pod ciśnieniem aby pokonać nacisk wód gruntowych oraz stabilizować drążoną powierzchnię. Smar powinien również wypełniać drążoną powierzchnię aby całkowicie zminimalizować osiadanie powierzchni. Jednakże, aby smar komercyjny był efektywny zdecydowano się na eliminację takich składników jak sód czy potas. W efekcie, aby smar nie stracił swojej funkcji jako wsparcie przeciw przed naciskiem nadkładu powierzchni drążonej i uaktywnić redukcję parcia, należy jak najszybciej opracować wyższej jakości smar, który poradzi sobie z wyżej wymienionymi problemami. W celu sprawdzenia charakterystyki i zachowania się materiału stanowiącego smar oraz wypełnienie dla systemu wykopu głębszych warstw jak w przypadku mikrotunelingu, przeprowadzono badania, których wyniki i omówienie znajdują się w poniższym referacie.
