Publication number: 20230256957Abstract: Provided is a vehicle posture control device configured to be installed in a vehicle provided with an actuator configured to generate a roll moment. The device includes a roll moment calculator (24) and an actuator controller (25). The roll moment calculator (24) is configured to calculate a roll moment command value to control the actuator such that a roll motion is generated in conjunction with a yaw motion in the vehicle (1) during turning thereof. The roll moment calculator (24) is configured to calculate the roll moment command value for output, on the basis of a sideslip angular velocity and a vehicle velocity of the vehicle. The actuator controller (25) is configured to control the actuator by using the calculated roll moment command value.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2023Publication date: August 17, 2023Applicants: NTN CORPORATION, SCHOOL JUDICIAL PERSON IKUTOKU GAKUENInventors: Junichi HIRATA, Makoto YAMAKADO

Patent number: 5451886Abstract: A method of and apparatus for evaluating the lifetime of a semiconductor material which is capable of measuring, in a non-contact and non-destructive manner, the lifetime of a surface thin-layer portion so as to evaluate the quality of a semiconductor device formed of an epitaxial wafer or a thin device-forming material. Light within a short-wavelength region is radiated for a short period of time on the surface of a semiconductor material to be evaluated, thereby generating carriers effectively on the surface and in a surface thin-layer. An electromagnetic wave within a millimeter to sub-millimeter wave region is projected onto the surface, and a wave reflected from the surface is measured to obtain a decay curve of the carriers. On the basis of the carrier decay curve, the lifetime of the surface as well as a surface thin-layer portion of the semiconductor material is evaluated.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 1993Date of Patent: September 19, 1995Assignees: School Judicial Person Ikutoku Gakuen, Semitex Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoichiro Ogita, Tateo Kusama
