Abstract: A surface mount inductor includes a coil including a wound portion and a feeder end portion drawn out from the wound portion, a compact that contains a magnetic powder and that encapsulates the coil, and an external terminal disposed on the compact and connected to the coil. The compact has surfaces including two pressed surfaces, opposing each other in a direction of an axis of the wound portion and formed by being pressed in the direction of the axis, and a non-pressed surface, adjacent to the two surfaces and not pressed. The coil is disposed so that the axis of the wound portion is parallel to a mount surface of the compact. The mount surface is included in the non-pressed surface, the feeder end portion is exposed from the mount surface, and the external terminal is formed on only the non-pressed surface and connected to the feeder end portion.

Abstract: A plurality of segmented chips are reinforced by applying an adhesive to the circumferentially opposite end portions thereof, and the adjoining segmented chips adjoining in the circumferential direction are adhered to the circumferential surface of a disc-like core with the adhesives at the circumferentially opposite end portions being not jointed with each other. Thus, the segmented chips can be prevented from being loaded with an unnatural force even when the disc-like core with the segmented chips adhered thereto expands and contracts radially due to thermal expansion and thermal contract. Thereby, expansion and contraction of the disc-like core do not impose a compression stress or the like on adhesives situated between adjoining segmented chips.

Abstract: A ring structure of a predicted target compound which is in a two-dimensional structural formula is arranged so as to be in an identical position as a ring structure of a template produced by superimposing two-dimensional structural formulae of compounds capable of forming a complex with a predetermined enzyme. Among predicted target compounds overlapping with a metabolic target site of the template, predicted target compounds other than those determined as being unable to access a metabolic active center site of the enzyme, or those having the same charge as that of the metabolic active center site, are determined to be metabolizable compounds. Based on the level of contribution of each atom included in the template during a metabolic reaction of the enzyme, a structural formula of a compound obtained after the metabolic reaction of the metabolizable compound whose metabolic target site has been determined is determined.

Abstract: In a grinding wheel in which abrasive tips for rough grinding and abrasive tips for finish grinding are alternately bonded to a periphery of a disk type base rotating about a rotation axis, each abrasive tip includes the abrasive layer formed by bonding abrasive grains and a lower layer overlaid and integrally for led with the abrasive layer. The abrasive tip is attached to the periphery of the base at the lower layer. A Young's modulus of the lower layer of the abrasive tip for finish grinding relative to a load acting on the grinding surface of the abrasive tip in an inward direction of the grinding wheel is less than that of the abrasive tip for rough grinding. Thereby, the surface of a workpiece can be both rough-ground and finish-ground with superhigh-precision surface roughness with using one grinding wheel.

Abstract: A multifunctional base sequence method largely shortens the calculation time and reduces the volume of memory consumption of a processor by carrying out calculation with the advance exclusion of base sequences in which translation termination codons emerge in the second and third reading frames, which are to be excluded in the end. Focusing on the fact that a dipeptide sequence already contains information about the translation products of the second and third reading frames, proteins are analyzed and calculated as duplicated connective products of dipeptide sequences, and are not analyzed as connective products of 20 kinds of amino acids.

Abstract: To provide a method of designing a multifunctional base sequence which can largely shorten the calculation time and reduce the volume of memory consumption of a processor by carrying out calculation with the advance exclusion of base sequences in which translation termination codons are emerged in the second and third reading frames which are to be excluded in the end. Focusing on the fact that a dipeptide sequence already contains information about the translation products of the second and third reading frames, proteins are analyzed and calculated as duplicated connective products of dipeptide sequences, and not analyzed as connective products of 20 kinds of amino acids. In “Leu-Ser” case, for example, calculation may only be performed hereafter for 6×6−10=26 variants that do not contain termination codons in the second and third reading frames (FIG. 1).

Abstract: An automatic DNA fragment removing method aims at removing a vector unit base sequence, that is, a base sequence in a portion of a vector, with precision from the DNA integrated into the vector and processed in a cloning process, so as to obtain a target DNA fragment in an exact structure. Depending on the vector and the restriction enzyme used for cleaving the vector and generating an object DNA fragment, a retrieval key is generated to retrieve a vector unit from the DNA base sequence obtained as the cloning process. Using the generated retrieval key, the junction between the DNA fragment and the vector unit is specified, and the specified junction and the base sequence outside the junction are automatically removed as the vector unit.

Abstract: An abrasive tool includes an electroformed layer having superabrasive grains electroplated on an outer surface of the electroformed layer, and a plurality of dimples arranged on the outer surface of the electroformed layer using a mold with projections made of gel adhesive. The concentration of the abrasive gains is regulated by changing the number of the dimples (i.e., changing a dimple-area-rate). The gel adhesive preferably has a viscosity of 500,000 cP or smaller. The dimple-area-rate is preferably from 7 to 70%.

After a part of the cylindrical surface is ground, a rest device is advanced towards the workpiece so as to support the part of the cylindrical surface of the workpiece which has been ground. Under the condition, the remaining portion of the cylindrical surface of the workpiece is ground.

Abstract: In a grinding wheel for use in a grinding machine, a plurality of grinding tips are bonded on the outer peripheral surface of a wheel core having a disk-like shape by bond. On both side surfaces of the wheel core are formed with depressions continuous with the outer peripheral surface of the wheel core.

Abstract: A dressing apparatus for dressing an electroplated grinding wheel by crushing the top portions of the abrasive grains thereof. The abrasive grains are diamond grains or CBN grains. A role made of ceramics, or a ferrous role holding diamond grains on its outer periphery is used for crushing the abrasive grains. The grinding wheel is rotated in one direction and the role is rotated in the opposite direction so that the difference in surface speed between the role and the grinding wheel becomes substantially zero. The role is then advanced toward the grinding wheel to crush the top portions of the abrasive grains, so that the heights of the abrasive grains are roughly equalized, and many sharp cutting edges are formed at the top portions of the abrasive grains.

Abstract: A resinoid-bonded grinding wheel employing hard abrasives such as cubic boron nitride or diamond is formed with a support member made of a vitrified grinding wheel. The support member has sealing layers on the surfaces thereof for avoiding the penetration of coolant into the support member. A method for forming the wheel includes mounting a grinding element on a radial peripheral surface portion of the support member and applying a sealing layer to the remaining surface portions of the grinding element for preventing penetration of the coolant into the support member and generation of vibrations in the grinding wheel during operation due to rotational imbalance caused by the presence of coolant within the support member.
