Abstract: An AE signal is acquired from an AE sensor disposed on a fixed part of the rotating machine, and the presence or absence of rubbing in the rotating machine is determined, based on the AE signal. As a result, if the rubbing is determined to be present, a rubbing suppression operating condition imposed on control of the rotating machine is decided to suppress the rubbing.

Abstract: A reusable vehicle occupant protection system that includes a reusable housing member and one or more reusable impact attenuator members, disposed in a cavity of the reusable housing member. The reusable housing member has at least one moveable wall having one or more openings. The one or more reusable impact attenuator members are moveable from a storage operating state to a deployed operating state in response to receipt of a compressive force by the at least one moveable wall. In the deployed state, at least a portion of the one or more reusable impact attenuator members are extruded through the one or more openings to form an array of impact bubbles which cushions a vehicle occupant against an impact force to the vehicle.

Abstract: An information management method, implemented by a computer, for managing information includes: acquiring a plurality of pieces of item information having different data input cycles or data measurement cycles as information associated with a specific item; and individually storing each of the plurality of pieces of item information associated with the specific item in association with a plurality of different blockchains.

Abstract: A wiper device includes a wiper arm and a drive section. The wiper arm has a base end portion supported by a support section provided at a vehicle, and is configured such that a wiping surface of the vehicle is wiped back and forth by a wiper blade coupled to a leading end portion of the wiper arm. The drive section is configured to displace at least a leading end portion side of the wiper arm in an up-and-down direction with respect to the wiping surface during back and forth movement of the wiper arm, irrespective of force the wiper blade receives from the wiping surface.
