Abstract: A braking control device includes a first control unit configured to execute first control for reducing a target braking force, which is either a front-wheel braking force to be applied to front wheels of a vehicle or a rear-wheel braking force to be applied to rear wheels during increasing of deceleration of the vehicle, in a case that a behavior of the vehicle is unstable as the target braking force is increased; and a second control unit configured to execute second control for reducing a rate of increase in the target braking force and increasing a rate of increase in the front-wheel braking force or the rear-wheel braking force, which is not the target braking force, prior to execution of the first control.

Abstract: A brake control device is applied to a brake device that controls a front-wheel braking force and a rear-wheel braking force.

Abstract: A braking control apparatus performs right and left wheel independent control to approach a slip rate of a rear-right wheel and a rear-left wheel to a target slip rate as an average of slip rates of a front-right wheel and a front-left wheel. In a high-speed range, right and left wheel independent control is started when a deceleration is equal to or larger than a start value that is smaller than a start value used in a low-speed range. In right and left wheel independent control started in the high-speed range, when there is a demand to increase braking pressures of both the rear-right wheel and the rear-left wheel, the braking pressure of the rear wheel located on the outside during the occurrence of deflection of the vehicle resulting from braking is increased, and the braking pressure of the rear wheel located on the inside is prohibited from increasing.

Abstract: In a 3-dimensional fast Fourier transformation implemented by using a parallel-processing computer, an overhead caused by transfers of data between processors employed in the computer is reduced for the purpose of increasing the efficiency of processing parallelism. In order to reduce the overhead, data is divided into data elements each having an even X coordinate and data elements each having an odd X coordinate. In processing 34, the date elements each having an even coordinate are subjected to the transformation in the Y direction while the date elements each having an odd X coordinate are being subjected to a process of permutation among the processors at the same time. In processing 35, on the other hand, the data elements each having an odd X coordinate are subjected to the transformation in the X direction while the data elements each having even coordinate are being subjected to the process of permutation among the processors at the same time.

Abstract: Method of acquiring solution of an optimization problem, whereby information of problem and its solution is not delivered to solving system when requesting solving system to solve, and it is also made unnecessary to send ciphering key. Problem and ciphering key are input to client. Client generates nonsingular matrix P and permutation matrix Q by using ciphering key in conversion matrix generation routine, enciphers problem by using matrices P and Q in problem conversion routine, outputs enciphered problem from problem conversion routine to problem output interface, and sends enciphered problem from output interface to server via network. Server receives enciphered problem, finds solution in solving routine, outputs solution to solution output interface, and sends solution from solution output interface to client via network. Client receives solution in solution input interface, deciphers solution by using matrices P and Q in reverse conversion routine, and thereby obtains solution of original problem.

Abstract: A chuck includes a holder body, a clamp sleeve, and a large number of needle rollers. The holder body has a shank portion, a flange, and a chuck sleeve. The clamp sleeve is fitted onto the outer circumference of the chuck sleeve such that the clamp sleeve is rotatable and axially movable relative to the chuck sleeve. The needle rollers are disposed between the chuck sleeve and the clamp sleeve over the entire circumference. The clamp sleeve is rotated to cause the needle rollers to revolve spirally along the outer circumferential surface of the chuck sleeve while rotating about their own axes in order to decrease and restore the diameter of the chuck sleeve. A thrust member is disposed between the end surface of the flange opposite the shank portion and a corresponding end surface of the clamp sleeve.

Abstract: There are previously involved: a program source-into which a log output instruction for adjusting an application model is embedded; a simulation source for performance simulation corresponding to the program source; and initial parameter values for adjusting the application model. Software parts capable of storing a history of parameter values after adjustment are combined to create an application program and the application model. Logs obtained by executing the application program and the application model are compared, and the parameters of the application model are automatically adjusted in conformance with actual measurement results of the application program. The adjusting result is fed back to the application model, and added to the history of original software parts, in which the parameter initial values are changed at need.
