  • Patent number: 11976341
    Abstract: A steel sheet including a chemical composition satisfying an equivalent carbon content of 0.60% or more and less than 0.85%, and a steel microstructure with an area fraction of ferrite: less than 40%, tempered martensite and bainite: 40% or more in total, retained austenite: 3% to 15%, and ferrite, tempered martensite, bainite, and retained austenite: 93% or more in total. A 90-degree bending at a curvature radius/thickness ratio of 4.2 in a rolling (L) direction with respect to an axis extending in a width (C) direction causes a change of 0.40 or more in (a grain size in a thickness direction)/(a grain size in a direction perpendicular to the thickness) of the tempered martensite in an L cross section in a 0- to 50-?m region from a surface of the steel sheet on a compression side. The steel sheet has a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more.

  • Publication number: 20230073382
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method of a practical level for performing sensor fusion of multiple vibration sensors such as a seismometer, and in an example, to extend a dynamic range of a high-sensitivity geophone by sensor fusion of the high-sensitivity geophone and a low-sensitivity acceleration geophone. A state related to the high-sensitivity geophone is estimated by capturing, in a Kalman filter, an acceleration record from the low-sensitivity acceleration geophone and a velocity record, or a displacement record, and an acceleration record of the high-sensitivity geophone, and estimating and calculating them as the linear Kalman filter problem with a control input. The high-sensitivity geophone is an actual device, but the state can be estimated using a sensor value of the low-sensitivity acceleration geophone even when the record is saturated. This extends the dynamic range of the high-sensitivity geophone.

  • Publication number: 20230056632
    Abstract: An information acquisition unit of an information processing device acquires crop information of a crop shipped from a farmer. A route acquisition unit acquires information related to a distribution route from the farmer of the crop to a retail store. Next, an estimation unit estimates a transportation distance of the crop, and a determination unit determines whether the transportation distance exceeds a threshold value related to the crop. When the transportation distance exceeds the threshold value, a proposal unit proposes, to the farmer who produces the crop, a cropping plan such that the transportation distance of the crop is equal to or less than the threshold value.
