Abstract: A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle in which a friction clutch and a one-way clutch are disposed in parallel with each other between an engine and an electric motor. The transmission is disposed between the electric motor and drive wheels. The friction clutch connects and disconnects between the engine and the electric motor. The one-way clutch transmits a drive force in a direction from the engine toward the electric motor. The vehicle runs in (i) an electric-motor running mode with operation of the electric motor or (ii) a hybrid running mode with operation of the engine. The control apparatus is configured, upon execution of a shift-up action of the transmission with the hybrid running mode being selected and with the friction clutch being in a non-engaged state, to execute a shift-up action control by which the shift-up action starts to be executed after the friction clutch has been engaged.

Abstract: A control device of a vehicle disposed on a vehicle including an engine and a fluid transmission device including a lockup clutch, the control device of a vehicle comprises: an automated-driving running control portion automatically controlling at least an engine torque so that the vehicle runs in a predefined target running state without requiring an acceleration/deceleration operation; and a lockup control portion engaging/releasing the lockup clutch in accordance with a predefined lockup condition. The automated-driving running control portion includes a fuel efficiency priority running portion setting the target running state such that the lockup clutch is brought into an engaged state in accordance with the lockup condition.

Abstract: A radio transmission device includes: an information acquisition unit to externally acquire information data; an encryptor to encrypt the information data using one of a plurality of encryption processes used for encryption to generate transmission data; a radio field intensity setter having a different setting for each of the plurality of encryption processes used for encryption, the radio field intensity setter setting a radio field intensity at which the transmission data is to be transmitted; and a transmitter to transmit the transmission data at the set radio field intensity.

Abstract: A control apparatus for a vehicle provided with (a) a transmission and (b) a shifting device including (b-1) a shift actuator and (b-2) a shift lever. The shift actuator establishes one of shift ranges in the transmission such that the established one of the shift ranges corresponds to a selected one of shift-lever operating positions of the shift lever. When a switching request is made to request the transmission to be switched to an opposite-direction drive range that is for driving the vehicle in a direction opposite to a current running direction of the vehicle, during running of the vehicle with a speed being not lower than a given value, the control apparatus rejects the switching request. The control apparatus rejects the switching request, also during running of the vehicle with the running speed being lower than the given value, if the vehicle is running on a downhill road.

Abstract: A video information reproduction system includes first and second video information reproduction devices. A first synchronization signal processor of the video information reproduction device as a master device generates a phase synchronization signal including a first vertical synchronization signal and a first counter value and sends it to the second video information reproduction device. A second synchronization signal processor of the second video information reproduction device as a slave device compares the phase synchronization signal with a second vertical synchronization signal on the basis of a second video clock signal, and a second clock generator changes the frequency of a second decode reference clock signal on the basis of a result of the comparison.

Abstract: Methods of preparing and porcine cells, organs and tissues that have reduced immunogenicity, e.g., for transplant into humans, e.g., for the treatment of burn injuries.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for predicting the effectiveness of an angiogenesis inhibitor in a subject suffering from a tumor. Provided is a method comprising a step of testing for the presence or absence of an a mutation or loss of expression of B-Raf and PTEN in a sample of tumor tissue from the subject. By using the presence or absence of or a mutation or loss of expression of B-Raf and PTEN as an indicator, this method enables the antitumor effectiveness of the angiogenesis inhibitor to be predicted without administering the angiogenesis inhibitor to the subject.
