  • Patent number: 9657476
    Abstract: A vibration control device that can achieve the best vibration control effect within an allowable stroke range of a movable mass includes a controller that calculates at least one of a displacement deviation between a target displacement of a movable mass and a displacement of the movable mass detected by a mass displacement sensor and a velocity deviation between a target velocity of the movable mass and a velocity of the movable mass detected by a mass velocity sensor, and generates a control command for making a motor drive the movable mass on the basis of at least one of the displacement deviation and the velocity deviation. The target displacement and the target velocity are set in a manner that the amplitude of the movable mass becomes constant and that phases thereof are delayed 90 degrees with respect to the vibration of a building.

  • Publication number: 20160348069
    Abstract: The present invention provides cell populations that are enriched for mesendoderm and mesoderm, and cell populations that are enriched for endoderm. In accordance with the present invention, a selectable marker gene has been recombinantly targeted to the brachyury locus to allow the isolation and characterization of cell populations that comprise brachyury positive mesendoderm and mesoderm cells. The cell populations of the invention are useful for generating cells for cell replacement therapy.

  • Publication number: 20160332421
    Abstract: A laminate is formed by laminating a substrate and a support plate through an adhesive layer and a release layer. The release layer is formed by applying a composition containing a reactive polysilsesquioxane and a crosslinkable group-containing siloxane onto the surface of the support plate or the surface of the substrate and heating the composition to polymerize the reactive polysilsesquioxane and the crosslinkable group-containing siloxane.
