  • Publication number: 20170185066
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus is equipped with an input unit which inputs a first self-transfer function which is acquired by measuring a response at an evaluation point to an input from the evaluation point and each first transfer function which is acquired by measuring a response between the respective connection points to the input, a first estimation unit which estimates each second self-transfer function by using the first self-transfer function and each first transfer function, a first calculation unit which calculates an element vector of each connection point on the basis of each second self-transfer function which has been estimated by the first estimation unit, a second estimation unit which estimates each second transfer function between the connection points on a vector space by using the element vector of each connection point, and a construction unit which constructs a third transfer function by using each second self-transfer function and each second transfer function.

  • Patent number: 8784608
    Abstract: The first invention aims to provide a method for preparing stiffer bulky pulp at a freeness level comparable to that obtained by mechanical treatments to improve the bulkiness of product paper by searching for a method capable of adjusting freeness while suppressing damage to pulp fibers and internal fibrillation in a process for producing pulp. The second invention aims to strip contaminants deposited on pulp fibers and/or inorganic particles to reduce adhesion of the contaminants and decrease microorganisms in a treatment of process water containing long pulp fiber fractions used in a process for producing pulp and paper, thereby clarifying process water and thus preparing high-quality pulp and paper.

  • Patent number: 8088254
    Abstract: Pulp processing equipment used to produce high-quality recycled pulp with little damage to fibers, high brightness and low residual ink by means of a force selectively acting on fiber surfaces during the process of recycling waste paper is disclosed. Moreover, fiber surfaces are modified by means of a force acting on only the fiber surfaces to obtain high-quality pulp and to render harmless dirts deteriorating pulp quality. A jet system is provided having one or more nozzles for jetting an aqueous slurry containing a material comprising cellulose into a vessel.

Moreover, fiber surfaces are modified by means of a force acting on only the fiber surfaces to obtain high-quality pulp and to render harmless dirts deteriorating pulp quality. A method for producing recycled pulp characterized in that cavitation is generated and used to strip contaminants deposited on fibers and ash during the process of recycling waste paper. Contaminants such as ink deposited on fibers and ash are stripped/fragmented by means of the impact force induced by collapse of fine bubbles by actively introducing bubbles generated by cavitation into a pulp suspension. A jet system having one or more nozzles for jetting an aqueous slurry containing a material comprising cellulose into a vessel.

  • Patent number: 6455991
    Abstract: A cathode ray tube capable of reducing the shifting of apertures in the horizontal direction of the screen during the operation of the cathode ray tube, thereby preventing a color displacement, unevenness in colors, and reduction in luminance from occurring. By taking a center line of a shadow mask in a horizontal direction as an X-axis and a center line of the shadow mask in a vertical direction as a Y-axis, bridges in the vicinity of both ends of a perforated portion in the X-axis direction have a greater arrangement pitch in the vertical direction than that of bridges in the vicinity of a Y-axis.
