"Another prior-art measurement system similar to inclinometers is the "Bassett Convergence System". It is an array of arms (metal rods) that form an arc around the circumference of a tunnel, all in the plane of a cross section. Angles between the arms are measured with levered tilt sensors, the levers providing amplification of the movement and conformability to(追従性)a changing shape of the cross section. The angle measurements are for one degree of freedom. Convergence is the movement of the tunnel wall toward or away from the center of the tunnel. A similar measurement is made by SAA arranged within a tube formed into a circular arc and attached to the inner wall of the tunnel, also in the plane of the cross section."

"In this way, one(*不定代名詞)can track the force-induced slight axial compression and radial bending deflections as small time-delay changes (for axial deflections) and small reflection magnitude changes (for radial deflections). Further, one can retain in view, despite the deflections, the bulk of the tissue echogram coming from within the tissue which varies only with tissue necrosis or microbubbling. Note specifically that(留意されたい)the semi-rigid tip is not useable to achieve gross tissue conformance(全体的な組織への追従性). It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that angulating reflecting or redirecting mirrors will result in both time-delay changes and amplitude changes and these effects can combine to cause reflective peaks to both predictably broaden/narrow and/or to change amplitude depending on the geometries involved."

"In many structures, panels have attached reinforcing structural members to improve buckling stability. In aircraft, a skin panel (e.g. a wing cover) may have reinforcing structural members (e.g. stringers). The reinforcing structural members meet with various obstructions and so need to be "run-out", or terminated. The problem of transferring load between the reinforcing member and the skin panel that it is reinforcing in the run-out region is well known. A bond line is typically used to attach the stringer flange to the skin and may be used in conjunction with bolting to transfer load into the skin. Conventional metallic stringers can be machined from a given cross section (e.g. I, 'T', 'L') to a flat extended flange at the termination. The stringer can have an initial web taper (i.e. of reducing web height) to facilitate load transfer by providing gradual decrease of transverse bending and axial stiffness. The attached flat extended flange renders the stringer tip more compliant with(より追従する)the skin when it is bent due to the eccentricity of the in-plane loads. The effect of lowering the neutral axis of the stringer closer to the skin and gradually reducing the stiffness of the stringer through significantly reducing the cross- sectional area, and second moment of area, at the run out, is to gradually transfer load through bonding and/or bolting.
Composite stringers usually comprise a back-to-back(背中合わせの)interface in the central web section but these cannot be run out in this ideal fashion, as a minimum attachment height must remain above the noodle (the fibre filler in the cleft at the interface) to prevent web cracking under load(荷重時). This therefore limits the lowering of the neutral axis and cross- sectional area reduction. As a result, geometric tapering and hence load transfer in the stringer termination region, tends to be relatively abrupt with poor compliance with(追従性)the skin under bending."

"It can be appreciated that shaft 14 may comprise number of different structures including a catheter (e. g., therapeutic, diagnostic, or guide catheter), endoscopic device, laproscopic device(腹腔鏡装置), an embolic protection device(塞栓予防装置), or any other suitable device. In some embodiments, shaft 14 may comprise a tubular filter cartridge. According to this embodiment, filtering device 10 can be configured to be slidable over a guidewire or other suitable medical device.
The shaft 14 may include a distal region 30 and a proximal region 28. The entire shaft 14 can be made of(材料からなる)the same material, or in some embodiments, can include portions or sections made of different materials. In some embodiments, the material used to construct shaft 14 is chosen to impart varying flexibility and stiffness characteristics to different portions of shaft 14. For example, proximal region 28 and distal region 30 may be formed of different materials, for example materials having different moduli of elasticity, resulting in a difference in flexibility. In some embodiments, the material used to construct proximal region 28 can be relatively stiff for pushability(押圧性)and torqueability(トルク伝達性), and the material used to construct distal region 30 can be relatively flexible by comparison for better lateral trackability(側方への追従性)and steerability(操舵性)."

"In the present invention, a method and assay for the detection of proteases and protease inhibitors using colloidal gold nanoparticles and peptide substrates, which are selectively recognized and cleaved by proteases being assayed, is disclosed. In this assay, the mechanism of signal generation relies on peptide sequence induced aggregation(凝集)of gold nanoparticles, which are used as signal reporters. The peptide sequences that induce aggregation are either the intact peptide substrates or proteolytic fragments of the intact peptide substrate wherein the proteolytic fragments are produced by the protease being assayed. The present invention provides a novel, simple, sensitive, and inexpensive colloidal gold nanoparticle-based colorimetric assay that allows both visual and quantitative detection of proteases and protease inhibitors."

"The application discloses methods of processing particulate carbon material, such as graphitic particles or agglomerates(凝集物)of carbon nanoparticles such as CNTs. The starting material is agitated in a treatment vessel in the presence of low-pressure (glow) plasma generated between electrodes, e.g. between a central electrode and an outer rotating conductive drum containing the material for treatment. Preferably the material is agitated in the presence of conductive contact bodies(接触体)such as metal balls, or other contact formations with relatively high specific surface area, on the surface of which plasma glow is present and amongst which the material to be treated moves. The methods are found to effectively deagglomerate(解凝集)nanoparticles, and to exfoliate graphitic material to produce very thin (few- layer or monolayer) graphitic sheets showing graphene-type characteristics. The resulting deaggregated or exfoliated carbon nanomaterials are an aspect of the disclosure, as is their use dispersed in composite materials, e.g. conductive polymeric composites for electric or electronic articles and devices. The particle surfaces can be functionalised(官能化)by choosing appropriate gas in which to form the plasma.

"An electroplating rack for supporting non-conductive substrates during an electrodeposition process is described. The electroplating rack is coated with a non-conductive material, such as a PVC plastisol. The electroplating rack is treated with a non-aqueous solution comprising a metallization inhibitor prior to the electrodeposition process to inhibit rack plate up(ラックめっき析出)when using etchants that do not contain chromic acid."
"For many years, processes have been available to facilitate the deposition of electrodeposited metals onto plastic substrates. Typically, the process involves the steps of:
1) Etching the plastic in a suitable etching solution such that the surface of the plastic becomes roughened and wetted so that the subsequently applied deposit(析出物)has good(良好な)adhesion(接着性);
2) Activating the surface of the plastic using a colloidal or ionic solution of a metal (usually palladium) capable of initiating the deposition(析出)of an autocatalytically applied metal coating (e.g., copper or nickel);
3) Depositing(析出させる)a thin layer of autocatalytically applied metal; and
4) Carrying out electrodeposition of metal onto the metallized plastic substrate."

"Thus, a major problem with all of the currently known methods that do not utilize chromic acid is that rack coatings tend to become plated in the subsequently electroless plating stage. This phenomenon is known as "rack plate up(ラックめっき析出)" and is a major problem with any form of chrome-free etching technology."
