Abstract Bubble columns are extensively used in the chemical industry. This paper evaluates the present state of the art on the size of bubbles from a sieve plate and gas holdup, mainly on the basis of the results of the authors, including previous ones. The size of bubbles formed from a sieve plate has an insignificant effect of chamber volume, and gas holdup shows some different behavior, depending on the hole diameter to liquid depth.

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 Photographic method for measurement of small-angl X-ray scattering (SAXS) is improved. Intense pointfocussing incident beam is obtained by using doubly bent crystal monochromator made of aluminium single crystal. Microphotometry and the subsequent calculation to obtain profiles, Guinier and Porod radii, integrated intensities, and so on are facilitated by using microcomputer. Integrated SAXS intensities measured from an Al-Zn alloy which has been treated under the same heat treatment conditions are coincident with one another with probable errors less than ±6 % . Ratio of the integrated intensities obtained from two Al-Zn alloys of different composition is reasonable compared with the quasi-equilibrium phase diagram.

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 Renumbering algorithms commonly in use for the band solver are generally applicable for any kind of linear equations, and, therefore, we may say that they cann't effectively utilize the characteristics of the finite element mesh. In this paper we investigate the characteristics of the finite element mesh systems, and introduce them into Taniguchi-Shiraishi Algorithm which already introduced some properties of FEM mesh systems. And through several numerical experiments it is proved that this improved algorithm is one of the fastest one.

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 Galerkin method is applied to a singular integral equation of fredholm type originated in the problem of the rarefied gas flow over a plane wall. The solution is expanded in a series of the Abramowitz function. The numerical calculations were carried out up to ten-terms expansions. The results show a good convergence of the series.The comparison is made with the previous work obtained by the moment method.

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.
