  • Patent number: 7353151
    Abstract: A method of effecting an analysis of behaviors of substantially all of a plurality of real segments together constituting a whole human body, by conducting a simulation of the behaviors using a computer under a predetermined simulation analysis condition, on the basis of a numerical whole human body model provided by modeling on the computer the whole human body in relation to a skeleton structure thereof including a plurality of bones, and in relation to a joining structure of the whole human body which joins at least two real segments of the whole human body and which is constructed to have at least one real segment of the whole human body, the at least one real segment being selected from at least one ligament, at least one tendon, and at least one muscle, of the whole human body.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5099962
    Abstract: A damping pad for preventing brake squeal includes: a first metal plate with a brake shoe fixed to one surface thereof; a second metal plate; a third metal plate; a first damping layer disposed between the other surface of the first metal plate and one surface of the second metal plate, and composed of viscoelastic material for high temperature use having a maximum loss factor at a temperature of 50.degree. C. to 100.degree. C.; and a second damping layer disposed between the other surface of the second metal plate and one surface of the third metal plate, and composed of viscoelastic material for low temperature use having a maximum loss factor at a temperature of 0.degree. C. to 30.degree. C.
