Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing more beautiful black coated steel sheets by uniformly blackening the coating layer. Specifically, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing black coated steel sheets, which brings Zn—Al—Mg alloy coated steel sheets (1) into contact with steam in a closed container (10), wherein said closed container (10) can maintain a predefined internal pressure through variable control of the amount of steam flowing into said closed container (10) and/or the amount of steam flowing out of said closed container (10), and in said closed container (10) that can maintain said predefined pressure, said Zn—Al—Mg alloy coated steel sheets (1) have contact with the steam introduced into said closed container (10).

Abstract: The present invention enables quick cooling of steam-treated objects and thus reduces the manufacturing time of steam-treated products such as black coated steel sheets. The present invention provides a method for manufacturing steam-treated products, which involves a steam treatment step that introduces steam into a closed container (10) containing a treatment object (1) and brings the treatment object (1) into contact with the steam, and a treated object cooling step that cools the object (1) treated with steam in the steam treatment step, wherein said treated object cooling step introduces coolant gas into said closed container (10), brings said treated object (1) into contact with the coolant gas, and discharges the introduced coolant gas from said closed container (10).

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium has stored therein a road state management program for causing a computer to execute a process, the process including receiving at least one information selected from the group including of information on a state of a surface of a road and information on a state under a surface of the road, distributing the received information to one or more management units of the road, and extracting the plurality of pieces of the distributed information so as to be in order of time, wherein each of the distributed information is common place of the road.

Abstract: An information providing apparatus includes a unit that presents an effectiveness of introducing a service of informing a driver during driving of information related to a point where hard braking is apt to happen, by comparing driving data when the service is provided and driving data when the service is not provided, and outputting a comparison result.

Abstract: A resin compound for molding precision parts containing 20 to 40% by weight of at least one of polyphenylene sulfide and aromatic polyester thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer, 15 to 25% by weight of whisker and 40 to 60% by weight of spherical fine particles, wherein the total content of the whisker and the spherical fine particles is 60 to 80% by weight, and a resin compound for molding precision parts containing 20 to 40% by weight of at least one of polyphenylene sulfide and aromatic polyester thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer, 5 to 25% by weight of whisker, 40 to 75% by weight of spherical fine particles and 0.5 to 3% by weight of silane coupling agent, wherein the total content of the whisker and the spherical fine particles is 60 to 80% by weight are disclosed. Mechanical strength of the resin compounds can be increased without the impairment of dimensional precision, surface smoothness and low coefficient of thermal expansion.
