Mechanical butt joint of a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) cable with a metal jacket has been investigated for a remountable HTS magnet where parts can be mounted and demounted iteratively to allow a superconducting magnet for a fusion reactor to be assembled and repaired. In this study, an optimum structure to achieve relatively uniform contact pressure distribution on joint surface in the...
Interface characteristics with respect to nitrogen-distribution and hydrogen-diffusion behavior were evaluated for two model tunnel oxides nitrided by NO and N2O gas, respectively. Nuclear reaction analysis reveals a different resistance of the two interfaces against the approach by H, which allows us to correlate the characteristic N-distribution of the tunnel oxide with a H-diffusion barrier. From...
Long term monotonous driving has been often found to decrease the driver's arousal level and effect his/hers property of perception, cognition and judgment. It is preferable to apply arousal assist for the driver instead of huge stimulus such as warning sound and vibration to the driver while driving. On the other hand, the effect of the scent is also reported as an environmental stimulus for driver...
In this paper, maneuverability measure of master control devices considering the musculo-skeletal model of operators is proposed. The original maneuverability measure of master arms considering the operator dynamics is extended by introducing a muscle tension space instead of the joint torque space of an operator so that the maneuverability is evaluated under a constant muscle stress condition which...
