Abstract: A control device is configured to perform torque response slip control for bringing an engagement device into a slip engaged state so that transfer torque of the engagement device has a magnitude corresponding to required torque, shift control for shifting the shift speed of an automatic transmission, and transfer torque limit control for limiting the transfer torque of the engagement device to a value equal to or less than a limit value smaller than the required torque, the required torque being torque that is required to be transferred from the rotating electrical machine side to the automatic transmission via the engagement device that connects and disconnects power transmission between the rotating electrical machine and the automatic transmission. The control device performs the transfer torque limit control instead of the torque response slip control in a case where the torque response slip control is being performed when performing the shift control.

Abstract: An engine control apparatus which may be employed in automotive vehicles. The engine control apparatus is equipped with a controlled variable arithmetic expression which defines correlations between a plurality of combustion parameters and a plurality of controlled variables of actuators for control of an operation of the engine to calculate a combination of command values to be outputted to the actuators for regulating the controlled variables needed to achieve target values of the combustion parameters. When one of the command values is produced outside an allowable operation range of a corresponding one of the actuators, the engine control apparatus corrects or limits the one of the command values to an upper or a lower limit of the allowable operation range, thereby ensuring the stability in bringing engine output characteristics close to desired values.

Abstract: Antibodies (Abs) play roles in protection against influenza. Neutralizing Abs either inhibit the binding of hemagglutinin (HA) to cellular receptors or prevent the conformational change of HA induced by low pH. The former Ab binds to the regions near the sialic acid-binding pocket on the globular head formed by HA1 and generally shows narrow strain specificity. The latter Ab binds to the stem region formed mainly by HA2 and shows broad strain specificity. We isolated a broadly neutralizing Ab against H3N2 viruses. X-ray analysis of the HA/Ab complex indicated that the Ab binds to the valley formed by two neighboring HA monomers at the side of the globular head. The Ab shows neutralizing activity by preventing the conformational change of HA induced at low pH.

Abstract: An engine control apparatus which may be employed in automotive vehicles. The engine control apparatus is equipped with at least one of a combustion parameter or a controlled variable arithmetic expression. The combustion parameter arithmetic expression defines combustion conditions of the engine needed to achieve required values of engine output-related values such as exhaust emissions. The controlled variable arithmetic expression defines how to operate actuators for an operation of the engine to meet desired combustion conditions of the engine. The use of the combustion parameter or controlled variable arithmetic expression achieves simultaneous agreement of the engine output-related values with required values without mutual interference between combustion parameters associated with the combustion conditions.

Abstract: An engine control apparatus which may be employed in automotive vehicles. The engine control apparatus is equipped with a controlled variable arithmetic expression which defines correlations between combustion parameters associated with combustion conditions of an engine and controlled variables actuators for an operation of the engine. This eliminates the need for finding relations of optimum values of the controlled variables to the combustion parameters through adaptability tests, which results in a decrease in burden of an adaptability test work and a map-making work on manufacturers. The engine control apparatus also works to learn or optimize the controlled variable arithmetic expression based on actual values of the combustion parameters, thereby avoiding undesirable changes in correlations, as defined by the controlled variable arithmetic expression, due to a change in environmental condition.

Abstract: A coating composition is prepared by blending a polyisocyanate curing agent, a weak solvent-soluble fluorine-containing copolymer and a weak solvent. The polyisocyanate curing agent is obtained by a reaction between an alicylic polyisocyanate and a monoalcohol having 10-50 carbon atoms. The weak solvent-soluble fluorine-containing copolymer is a copolymer obtained from a fluoroolefin and a double bond-containing monomer copolymerizable with the fluoroolefin, and has afluorine content derived from fluoroolefin of not less than 10% by mass. In this connection, 5-30% by mole of the double bond-containing monomer contains a hydroxyl group, while 10-50% by mole of the double bond-containing monomer contains a branched alkyl group having 3 or more carbon atoms.
