Patent number: 10013571Abstract: In the present invention, a control section of a CRM server performs editing processing for TPO (the time, the place, and the occasion) requirements. Next, a control section of a TPO server registers the TPO requirements in order to convert the same to TPO definitions. Then, the control section performs setting processing for the TPO definitions. A portable terminal identifies the current location and the current time. Then, a control section verifies TPO definition state transitioning. If transitioning of the TPO definition state is detected, the control section performs TPO definition state transition notification processing. The control section of the portable terminal performs individual control processing on the basis of the TPO definitions.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2017Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: Mizuho Information & Research Institute, Inc.Inventor: Atsushi Tomoeda

Patent number: 8332187Abstract: A controller of a cantilever evaluation system calculates a stream function value ?z(x, y; t+1) and vorticity ?z(x, y; t+1) at a subsequent time step t+1 using boundary conditions according to displacement h(z; t) of a cantilever and velocity ?h/?t(z; t), a stream function value ?z(x, y; t) and vorticity ?z(x, y; t) in two-dimensional planes. The controller uses the calculated stream function value ?z(x, y) and vorticity ?z(x, y) to calculate a fluid drag force acting on the cantilever. The controller substitutes the calculated fluid drag force into a displacement calculation equation to calculate the displacement h(z; t+1) of the one-dimensional beam at the subsequent time step t+1. The controller repeats such calculation for each grid point and further repeats it at each time step.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignees: Mizuho Information & Research Institute, Inc., Waseda UniversityInventors: Naoki Watanabe, Masaru Tsukada

Patent number: 8096934Abstract: The present invention provides a system for treating carbon dioxide, and a method by which such treated carbon dioxide can be stored underground at low cost and with high efficiency. The present invention' method for storing carbon dioxide underground includes: a step for pumping up to the ground groundwater from a pumping well in a deep aquifer, and then producing injection water. Carbon dioxide that has been separated and recovered from exhaust gas from a plant facility is changed into the bubbles. The bubbles are mixed with the injection water, and hereby produces a gas-liquid mixture a step for injecting into. The deep aquifer is injected into the gas-liquid mixture from the injection well. The method preferably further includes a step for dissolving a cation-forming material in the injection water, and a step for injecting the injection water, in which the cation-forming material is dissolved, into the deep acquifer at its top and above the place at which injection water has already been injected.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2007Date of Patent: January 17, 2012Assignee: Mizuho Information & Research Institute Inc.Inventors: Hitoshi Koide, Junji Shinoda
