Patent number: 11487430Abstract: Embodiments are provided for reducing data using a plurality of compression operations in a computing storage environment. A speed of data writing to a virtual tape device and an availability of one or more processor devices for the virtual tape device may be monitored. One or more requests may be received for writing data to the virtual tape device. Data to be written to the virtual tape device, corresponding to a selected number of the one or more requests for writing the data, may be compressed according to both the speed of data writing to the virtual tape device and the availability of one or more processor devices for the virtual tape device. The compressed data may be stored in the virtual tape device in record units. Non-compressed data may be compressed in the virtual tape device at a subsequent period of time (e.g., future time period).Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2018Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Takahiro Tsuda, Koichi Masuda, Sosuke Matsui, Takeshi Nohta, Shinsuke Mitsuma, Kousei Kawamura

Publication number: 20220297768Abstract: Provided is a frame which is made of a fiber reinforced composite and where a bending strength and a vibration damping capability are compatible. The frame which is made of a fiber reinforced composite includes: a compressive wall part where a compressive stress occurs in a longitudinal direction of the frame when the frame receives a bending load in a normal direction perpendicularly intersecting the longitudinal direction; a side wall part extending in the normal direction and defining one of the corners with the compressive wall part; and a tension wall part which is away from the compressive wall part and extends in the longitudinal direction, and where a tensile stress occurs in the longitudinal direction when the frame receives the bending load. The tension wall part has a loss coefficient which is larger than a loss coefficient of the compressive wall part by 0.005 or more.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2022Publication date: September 22, 2022Applicants: MAZDA MOTOR CORPORATION, NIPPON STEEL Chemical & Material Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chikara KAWAMURA, Yuki KODAMA, Kenji NISHIDA, Tetsuya SUGIYAMA, Koichi HATTORI
