  • A computer program has been developed to analyze easily the Kikuchi pattern which is useful in obtaining the crystallographic data of materials. This program can simulate the Kikuchi patterns for 14 Bravais lattice by using the matrix algebra. Convenient menu system was also added to enhance the applications of the program. That is, by varying the tilting angle, camera length (RADIUS) and $S_{max}$ in the menu, various Kikuchi patterns can be obtained. The simulated patterns, then, can be compared with the experimentally-obtained Kikuchi pattern to examine validity of simulation.

  • 니켈기 전열관 소재에서 결정립계의 misorientation을 분석하였다. 일반적으로 대부분의 결정립계에서 석출물을 관찰 할 수 있지만 쌍정과 만나게 되면서 석출물의 분포가 갑작스럽게 변하는 것을 관찰 할 수 있다. 이러한 현상은 결정립계의 구조와 에너지에 관련되는 결정립계의 misorientation 특성에 갑작스런 변화가 생겨나기 때문이라. 이러한 결정립계의 misorientation 특성은 T.E.M (Transmission Electro Microscope)에서 얻은 각 결정립의 Kikuchi pattern을 이용하여 분석하었다. 석출물을 갖는 결정립계들은 random high angle 결정립계이고 석출물이 존재하지않는 결정립계들은 특정한 C.S.L ( Coincidence Site Lattice) 결정립계이었다.

  • Blue phase shows several different reflection colors from the randomly oriented domains and crystal direction. Also there are variations in the size of domains. The domain size is dependent on the temperature gradient. With smaller cooling rate of temperature, the domain size was increased compared with rapid cooling. With injection of light of specific wavelength, we find that the diffraction patterns were occurred around the light spot in the cell of blue phase. It was supposed to be from the matching of the phase retardation and domain size. However, actually the diffraction pattern is reflecting the lattice structure in double twist of the blue phase. The lattice constant from the radius of diffraction patterns shows very similar one from the reflection spectrum, which indicates the internal lattice constant in double twist of the blues phase.

  • The operating accelerating voltage in the electron microscopy may differ from the nominal voltage specified by the manufacture. Thus it is necessary, at least once, to determine the wavelength of electron beam for the nominal accelerating voltage. Particularly in QCBED technique, the wavelength of the incident electron beam on a specimen must be determined as accurately as possible. In this paper we present a simple method to determine accurately the wavelength of electrons from LACBED patterns of a known crystalline materials, which is analogous to a method based on Kikuchi patterns reported previously. This method is to utilize three diffraction lines not belonging to the same zone, which nearly intersect at the same point. For an application of the method, the wavelength of electrons for the 200 kv nominal acceleration voltage of JEM2010 is determined to be 0.002496(3) nm ($201.5{\pm}0.4$ kv) with an uncertainty of 0.12%.

  • The main purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the necessity of considering wind load combinations even for low-rise buildings. It first discusses the overall quasi-static wind load effects and their combinations to be considered in structural design of low-rise buildings. It was found that the maximum torsional moment closely correlates with the maximum along-wind base shear. It was also found that the instantaneous pressure distribution causing the maximum along-wind base shear was quite similar to that causing the maximum torsional moment, and that this asymmetric pressure pattern simultaneously accompanies considerable across-wind and torsional components. Secondly, the actual wind pressure distributions causing maximum quasi-static internal forces in the structural frames are conditionally sampled and their typical pressure patterns are presented.

  • We observed the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of an acidic lake, Lake Katanuma, from 1998 to 2002 at weekly or biweekly intervals, except during the winter. This volcanic lake has a dimictic thermal pattern. In summer, the volcanic heat supply at the lake bottom results in weak thermal stratification. In 1998, 1999, and 2002, short-term holomixis was observed during the stratification period, when the anoxic, hydrogen sulfide-rich water from the hypolimnion spread across the entire lake. In contrast, distinct short-term holomixis did not occur during the stratificatlon period in 2000 and 2001. However, the early onset of the autumn turnover in August 2000 and 2001 caused anoxic conditions to persist throughout the entire water column for more than 2 weeks. The anoxic and hydrogen sulfide-rich conditions affected population densities of chironomid larvae (Chironomus acerbiphilus) and planktonic algae (Chlamydomonas acidophila), both dominant species in Lake Katanuma. Thus, the interannual variations of limnological characteristics influenced the seasonal population changes of these species.

  • Thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PIPAAm) was covalently patterned by masked el electron beam irradiation. Introduction of PIPAAm on tissue culture polystyrene dish was confirmed by ATR-FTIR and ESCA measurements. Hepatocytes were cultured at $37^{circ}C$ on these surfaces. Cells adhered on PIPAAm-grafted domains were detached by reducing culture temperature to $20^{circ}C$. Endothelial cells were then seeded and cultured on the same surfaces. Seeded endothelial cells were selectively attached on hepatocytes detached and PIPAAm-grafted domains and could be co-cultured with hepatocytes on the same culture dishes with clear pattern. This co-culture method enabled long-term co-culture of hepatocytes with endothelial cells.

  • The relationship between nutrients and phytoplankton dynamics was investigated daily from 12 April to 22 July 2003 in Sagami Bay, Japan. According to multidimensional scaling (MDS) and cluster analysis, phytoplankton community was divided into four distinct groups. The first group was consisted of centric diatom species, such as Guinardia spp., Detonula spp., Letocylindrus danicus, Skeletonema costatum, Eucampia zodiacus and Chaetoceros spp.. The second and third clusters comprised mainly diatoms and dinoflagellates, respectively. The other cluster was restricted to the samples collected during the last sampling period when the rainfall and river discharge was frequently recorded. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) was applied to analyze four groups respectively, which focused on the effects of nutrients concentration and ratio on phytoplankton variations. Based on CCA analysis, most species of centric diatom were negatively correlated with DSi concentrations and Si/N ratio. Nutrients were strongly limited phytoplankton growth during the summer when the rainfall was not observed, whereas river discharge by rainfall and counterclockwise coastal currents (although the surface circulation pattern is often altered by Kuroshio Current, the counterclockwise coastal currents are generally dominant) has brought phytoplankton population accumulation and triggered the micoalgae growth in western part of the bay. Phosphorous (P) was strongly limited after significantly increases in the phytoplankton abundances. However, silicate (Si) was not a major limiting factor for phytoplankton production, since Si/DIN and Si/P ratio did not create any potential stoichiometric limitation. This indicates that high Si availability contributes favorably to the maintenance of diatom ecosystems in Sagami Bay.
