| Abstract | Some modifications of an asynchronous ring arbiter are proposed. This arbiter is composed of a chain of cells. Each cell has one to one correspondence to a device. In the chain, there exists only one privilege to arbitrate conflicts of requests from many devices. A class of modifications is high speed arbiters, obtained by increasing the number of connecting wires between two adjacent cells. As the results, the time required for the privilege to pass through a cell decreases by about one-half compared with the original arbiter. Another class of modifications is arbiters with priority rules. They are obtained by adding a few hardware to the original arbiter. The priority order of request acknowledgements in all the cells is specified. Using above modifications, conflicts of requests in many digital systems may be feasibly arbitrated. |

| Abstract | A simple system was developed for the fully automatic and continuous measurement of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in wastewater samples based on colorimetry of dichromate. A sample and a solution of sulfuric acid (1+1) containing 2mM potassium dichromate are continuously pumped with a double-reciprocating micro-pump at each flow rate of 0.3 ml/min. The wastewater sample is filtered at first with a 100-mesh stainless filter and then mixed with the dichromate solution in the mixing joint. The mixture is introduced into a reaction coil made of poly(tetrafluoroethylene) tubing (1 mm i.d., 3 mm o.d., and 20 m length), being placed in an oil bath (120℃). After reaction, the mixture passes into a quartz tubular flow-through cell (10 mm path length, 18 μl volume) in a spectrophotometer, and the absorbance is measured at 445 nm. The COD value of the sample is automatically estimated from the amount of decreased absorbance. The system was successfully applied to COD measurement of some waters, and to continuous monitoring of COD in wastewater of university laboratories. The system was also evaluated by comparing with the flow injection analyzer system previously developed by the authors. |

| Abstract | In this paper, the analysis of transient performance of two-phase induction motor driven by a voltage source inverter with current limiter is described. The motor is represented by using a two-axis model, that is, the Kron primitive machine. The state equations of mechanical-electrical system are derived. The calculation method with a discrete point of time is employed in order to decrease the CPU time of computer. The calculated results gained from this method agree well with the measured. Then, with the aid of this analytical method, the discussions on transient performance of this system are also performed. |

| Abstract | The phase control characteristics in a thyristor phase control circuit with parallel resonance elements indicate very interesting phenomenon. Several extreme values appear on the phase control curve. The phenomenon is different from the step-up one in a thyristor phase control circuit with series RLC elements which is interpreted as series resonance. To comprehend the circuit performance with those loads, it is necessary that the phenomenon on extreme value is physically clarified from other viewpoints. In this paper the performance in this circuit is studied from two viewpoints of a natural oscillation and a parallel resonance. Then, it is found that the performance depends on a natural frequency in thyristor conducting period and a parallel resonance frequency in thyristor non-conducting period. Therefore, the interesting phenomenon on extreme value is affected by the alternative of natural frequency or parallel resonance frequency. |

| Abstract | The sucking grasp, for example, the silicon or the rubber sucker has been used widely to handle the parts in various stages of the automated process. But in order to use the sucking grasp more widely, it is necessary to develop the other type of sucking unit. In this paper, we examined the distribution of the vacuum pressure in the contact surface and estimated the adsorptive force from the vacuum pressure, the area of the contact surface, the area or the number of sucking holes, and a gap or a roughness of surface under the contact condition that the flat surface of the sucking unit sucked up the flat surface of an object. The vacuum pressure in the contact surface decreased exponentially, as the distance from the edge of the sucking hole became long. And the adsorptive force was estimated from the equation Y=1.147.P.S.(S/M)(-0.6) in the case of one sucking hole. It is necessary to consider the interaction between two sucking holes which were only separated by a very close distance to estimate the adsorptive force in case of many sucking holes. The adsorptive force became weak, as the gap |

| Abstract | A deconvolution method for the X-ray diffraction line profile is proposed, which is based on the conventional least-squares method. The true profile is assumed to be a functional form. The numerical values of parameters of the function assumed are determined so that the calculated profile, which is a convolution of the function and the instrumental profile, has a minimum deviation from the observed one. The method is illustrated by analysis of the X-ray powder diffraction profile of sodium chloride 222 reflexion under the assumption that the true profile is a Gaussian or a Cauchy function. |

| Abstract | A system dynamics model to forecast future movements of a city was studied. The model consists of three sections of population sector, industry sector, land use sector and some divisions of labor, income employment, housing land which connect each sections. Economic growth rate, public investment program, housing land supply program were incorporated in the model as political variables. The model was applied to Okayama city for thirty years from 1975 to 2005. The results of the simulation are summarized as follows: 1) The drift of peoples into Okayama city will advance in the future. 2) Tertiary industries will be given much weight as compared with secondary industries. 3) Because of the drift of peoples, housing problems will be serious in the future. |

| Abstract | A welfare economic approach is tried to an optimal decision of toll rate and expansion of urban expressway network in an equilibrium of toll revenues and cost of service supplied. The model, originated with Yamada, is such that the decision comes into optimality when the maximum consumers' surplus is reached in the equilibrium condition. The paper is concerned with some general aspects of the optimal solution and reexamination of the solution obtained in the past when used a specific demand curve. General aspects obtained are as follows; The extremum condition to consumers' surplus is equivalent to that to diverted traffic (the realized number of expressway users) only when demand curve has such a property that the marginal consumers' surplus to network expansion vanishes. In case that the marginal consumers' surplus does not vanish, the extrema of consumers' surplus is found in the regions of negative marginal diverted traffic if demand curve yields positive marginal surplus, and in the regions of the positive if it gives negative marginal surplus. The contact points of demand and average cost curves give extrema of neither consumers' surplus nor diverted traffic. An implicative finding, made out by Yamada by using a specific demand curve, that optimal network expansion is reached when the marginal service cost to expansion averaged to the marginal diverted traffic to expansion is equal to the value of time saved by using expressway just by mean trip length holds good at the points of the maximum diverted traffic, but not at the contacts of demand and average cost curves. In case of the demand curve, the condition for an equilibrium of revenues and cost to come into existence is that the minimum of the ratio of service cost averaged to the whole population of expressway users to the value of time mentioned above is less than or equal to e(-1). |

| Abstract | This paper treats the convergence condition of the explicit finite element method (i.e. the time and spatial axes are discretized by using the explicit finite difference method and the weighted residual method, respectively) which is applied for analyzing the heat problem in region with complex boundary configuration and also with several material properties. The main role of this study is the application of the Brauer's theorem. As the results we obtain that the usage of the Brauer's theorem is valid and that the application method of the theorem is presented in this paper. |

| Abstract | In this paper the vertical distribution of pore water pressure in the highly saturated sand layer under the oscillating water pressure are treated theoretically and experimentally. By the experiments it is shown that the water pressure acting on the sand surface propagates into the sand layer with the damping in amplitude and the lag in phase, and that the liquefaction, the state that the effective stress becomes zero, occurs under certain conditions. These experimental results are explained fairly well by the same theoretical treatment as for the ground water problems in the elastic aquifer. The main characteristics of liquefaction clarified by the analysis are as follows. 1) The depth of the liquified layer increases with the increase of the amplitude and the frequency of the oscillating water pressure. 2) The increase of the volume of the water and the air in the layer increases the liquified depth. Especially the very small amount of the air affects the liquefaction significantly. 3) The liquified depth decrease rapidly with the increase of the compressibility coefficient of the sand. 4) In the range beyond a certain value of the permeability coefficient the liquified depth decrease with the increase of the coefficient. |

| Abstract | A welfare economic approach is applied to investigate some implications of optimal pricing in urban expressway where two different groups of users are supposed to exist. On the assumption of a specified demand function, following implications are shown; (1) optimal prices must be such that the diversion ratios are the same and (2) the price rates must be set equal each other, where the price rate means the proportion of the price to the average user benefit. In connection with the results, the elasticity of the demand with respect to price is measured in Osaka area of Hanshin Expressway, where two different levels of price are flatly set for users according to the characteristics of their cars. |

| Abstract | The purposes of this research is an investigation of the intrusion of sea water into coastal aquifers. For this subject, this paper deals with proposing rational methods of getting diffusion coefficient and dispersion parameter for flow in porous media in a laboratory. These parameters of soil are indispensable in order to apply an analytical approach or a numerical approach to actual salt water intrusion problems. Experimental apparatuses were constructed and test procedures were also developed to measure concentration behaviors in a saturated porous media by using electro conductivity probe. As the results, the diffusion coefficients for the Toyoura standard sand and the Asahi river sand determined by two methods, that is, "Boltzman's transformation method" and "Instantaneous profile analysis method". The longitudinal coefficient of dispersion for one-dimensional flow was also determined by the least squares curve fitting method with a function of a certain range of seepage velocity. |

| Abstract | A practical example of digital rectification of tilted photographs using a drum scanning micro densitometer and general purpose computers is depicted. The present research covers rectification of projective distorsions, occuring when the camera axis is not truly vertical, and affine distorsions due to curvature of a drum of a scanner. For this purpose, fundamental mathematical expressions were derived. And some pixel interpolation methods necessary for image reconstruction were compared experimentally. The examples revealed, however, that the film was deformed so complexly that they could not be corrected sufficiently only by affine transformation. Accuracy of rectification was checked by use of stereo aerial photographs in terms of residual y-parallaxes. The result showed residual y-parallaxes of ± 1 pixel (± 50 μm) and sometimes ± 2 pixels were observed. They seem to be caused mainly by film deformations which have not been eliminated, and their amount seems to exceed the photogrammetric tolerance. |

| Abstract | System data handling in CAD sY8tem for designing control systems is discussed. A man-oriented data description method for a wide sense block diagram and its automatical transformation into the state space description is proposed. This work is a part of CAD system: CADPACS-T which has been under development for designing control systems in our laboratory. The proposal data description for a wide sense block diagram has the following features: 1) to correspond nicety to the block diagram and to be suitable for a man-oriented expression, 2) to express even a large scale system compactly by partitioning into some subsystems defined externally, 3) to be easy to add /or alter the input-output terminals, parameters or elements, and 4) to need not to assign the connection relationship explicitly owing to adopting the input-output terminal/line names. Moreover, system data handling in designing the PI controller for an actual boiler system expressed in a block diagram is taken up as an example. |

| Abstract | In a sensitive spectrometry with lead-salt diode lasers, etalon-fringe phenomena often intervene in the measured absorption spectrum. Derivative methods are employed for the purpose of high resolution where the pertaining wavelength is modulated. This paper presents results of mathematical examination on a possible improvement of immunity from the etalon-fringes by choosing the profile of the wavelength modulation. |

| Abstract | In this paper, the optimal toll-rate and scale of urban expressway is discussed economically. The criterion used is the total surplus of expressway, which is defined as the sum of consumer's surplus of expressway users and producer's surplus on the side of expressway administrator. The total surplus is equivalent to the difference of the value of total saved travel times of expressway users and the total cost required to construct and administrate expressway systems. The flow-dependent travel times is assumed, and traffic demand is induced through equilibrium method. On the other hand, for the management of expressway to be capable, the accounting condition that the fare revenue must repay the total cost should be satisfied. Under this accounting condition, the optimal rate and scale which maximize the total surplus are requested, and their properties are examined. The analysis is practiced for both caces of flowindependent cost function and flow-dependent cost function. One remarkable result is that the maximum feasible scale under the accounting condition does not privide a maximum for total surplus. |

| Abstract | In this paper, characteristics of hydraulics and water quality in Kojima Bay are discussed based on field observations. The main results obtained are as follows. (1) The variation of flow rate in Kojima Bay has periods for 30 minutes to 2 hours. This characteristic is represented by a two-dimensional numerical simulation fairly well. (2) The local distributions of salinity and suspended solids show increase in the direction to the mouth of Kojima Bay. On the other hand, the distribution of COD(Mn) is nearly uniform in the whole area of the bay. Salinity appears to be influenced by river discharge sensitively but suspended solids does not. (3) The vertical distributions of salinity and suspended solids are similar. There are similar points between the cross-sectional average of water quality and surface water quality. (4) The surface water quality seems to be influenced by the variation of velocity. |

| Abstract | From the theoretical approach to the fill-in minimization problem we present one of the optimal vertex elimination process for a regular finite element mesh M (nxn), and through a number of numerical experiments it is verified that the new process model can always lead to better numerical results comparing to other methods presently in use. Since the process here presented cann't give the actual dissections of M but can clarify how the optimal elimination is, the process includes George's Nested Dissection Method and the method by Duff, Erisman and Reid. By this investigation we can conclude that l) the concept of "Dissection" is neccessary for minimizing the number of fill-ins, 2) the location of the dissection lines can be systematically decided even if n of M is odd or even number, and though the interior area of M is dissected as George's Method, the surrounding area of M is rather irregularily dissected, and 3) the model of the vertex elimination process given in this paper is applied to other kind of regular finite element mesh or finite difference mesh, too. |
