Introduction Many kinds of footwear are used for various purposes in the workplace in Japan. Careful selection of footwear is needed to protect workers from coldness and to keep the performance of workers in cold workplace where employees have to work under -20℃. On the other hand, safety boots with high heat conductivity from foot to outside are needed for the workers in hot environments. But the

The base (BOP) and the top (TOP) of the world income pyramid represent the people living in poverty and the people from developed countries, respectively. In the approach of business development combined with poverty alleviation, the design of products for the BOP plays an important role. There is an urgent need to develop an understanding of the process of designing products for the BOP. Requirem

Summary, key points: Transport considerations ought to be factored into the initial phase of the wheelchair & seating assessment process. Manufacturers of wheelchairs and seating systems should make information relating to the safe transportation of their products readily available - and easy to understand. With the desire to provide the safest possible transport environment for wheelchair-se

Recent observations by the Goddard High-Resolution Spectrograph on the Rubble Space Telescope have dramatically improved our knowledge of the abundance of the heaviest elements in Mercury-Manganese (HgMn) stars (c.f. Leckrone et al. 1992 and Wahlgren et al. 1995). Explaining the observed abundance and isotope anomalies requires improved calculations of radiatively driven diffusion. We briefly revi

Two methods for estimating the sensor offset of a cylinder pressure transducer are developed. Both methods fit the pressure data during pre-combustion compression to a polytropic curve. The first method assumes a known polytropic exponent, and the other estimates the polytropic exponent. The first method results in a linear least-squares problem, and the second method results in a nonlinear least-

A thoracic phantom, with embedded fragments of uranium (U) and iron (Fe) of different sizes, was imaged with digital radiography, standard-dose CT and low-dose CT and the detectable size of the fragments was recorded. U and Fe fragments were detected in diameters down to 100 mu m and 300 mu m, respectively with the standard-dose CT and digital radiography. The size limit using the low-dose CT was

This paper is intended to give an overview of the current work of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) within the field of medicine and healthcare. The paper focuses on the work carried out in Committee 3. Some views expressed at the ICRP Seminar in Bethesda, USA in October 2011 will also be discussed. Similar and complementary work by other organisatons will also be brie

Radiochromic film, polymer gel and radiochromic plastic are three different kinds of dosimeters developed for radiation therapy and suitable for optical readout. In this study, different optical CT scanners are used to scan the dosimeters to find out if they could be used as multi-purpose scanners, i.e. for readout of the different kinds of dosimeters. Promising results are found but further devel

The extent to which in-situ global mechanical tensioning (GMT) can be used to modify the residual stress state in friction stir (FS) welds is investigated in this article. Residual stress distributions have been determined by synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction for four sets of FS welds in high-strength AA7449-W51 and lithium containing AA2199-T8 aerospace aluminum alloys subjected to a syst

Though the practice of genocide traces its roots back to the atrocities committed in the ancient times, however, the international community has shown its reluctance to acknowledge the existence of that horrific crime. The impunity for the Armenian genocide perpetrated by the Young Turks of Ottoman Empire in 1915 had a significant impact on Adolf Hitler who referred to the Ottoman killings of Arme

BACKGROUND Tannins can bind to and precipitate protein by forming insoluble complexes resistant to fermentation and with a positive effect on protein utilisation by ruminants. Three protein types, Rubisco, rapeseed protein and bovine serum albumin (a single high-molecular weight protein), were used to test the effects of increasing concentrations of structurally different condensed tannins on prot

It is shown that the high-resolution laser photoelectron microscope withsubwavelength-spatial resolution can be used for an absolute values ofthe two-photon external photoelectric effect measurements with high (afew nm-scale) localization. The spatial distribution of light intensityin the near field is studied by observing the photoelectron projectionimages of a subwavelength nanoaperture. The ima

Presents a new view of the standard of living development in Sweden during the agricultural revolution, using evidence on the ability to overcome short-term economic stress. The results corroborate previous findings, based on a variety of indicators, that standard of living in Sweden increased for most people after the mid-nineteenth century, but also support a more negative view of the immediate
