Abstract: An AE signal is acquired from an AE sensor disposed on a fixed part of the rotating machine, and the presence or absence of rubbing in the rotating machine is determined, based on the AE signal. As a result, if the rubbing is determined to be present, a rubbing suppression operating condition imposed on control of the rotating machine is decided to suppress the rubbing.

Abstract: A method for producing a protein composition containing a protein (A), a radical scavenger (RS), and at least one hydrogen-bond-formable compound (HC) selected from the group consisting of amino acids, peptides, and proteins other than the protein (A). The method including a sterilization step of radiosterilizing an unsterilized protein composition, wherein the unsterilized protein composition contains the protein (A), the radical scavenger (RS), and the hydrogen-bond-formable compound (HC), the protein (A) contains at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of sulfide, amide, hydroxyl, amino, and carboxyl groups, the hydrogen-bond-formable compound (HC) contains at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of sulfide, amide, hydroxyl, amino, and carboxyl groups, the at least one functional group in the protein (A) is capable of binding to the at least one functional group in the hydrogen-bond-formable compound (HC) via a hydrogen bond.

Abstract: A tape autoloading device includes a tape leading-end processing device, which forms the leading end of a carrier tape into a predetermined shape, and a transfer device, which carries the carrier tape in a first direction different from the tape longitudinal direction and transfers the carrier tape to the next step. Tape leading-end processing device includes a feeding device for conveying the carrier tape along a conveyance path formed in a groove in a guide member, a pressing device for pressing the upper surface of the carrier tape, and a cutting device for cutting the leading-end of the carrier tape. The transfer device includes a guide device for guiding the carrier tape having a leading end formed into a predetermined shape, a gripping device for gripping the leading end of the carrier tape, and a moving device for moving the carrier tape in the first direction.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an interior member for vehicles comprises the steps of laying a surface layer in a cavity of a mold, placing a reinforcing fiber mat onto the surface layer, compressing the surface layer and the reinforcing fiber mat in the mold, injecting raw material for obtaining a polyisocyanurate and demolding an integrally-molded interior member from the mold after the completion of a reaction of the raw material. The raw material comprises a trimerization catalyst, a polyol and a polyisocyanate. The amount of raw material is determined so that the density of the obtained polyisocyanurate is 1.2 to 1.9 times as much as the density of the same polyisocyanurate in its free foaming state.

Abstract: An improved interior member for vehicles which includes a substrate containing a reinforcing fiber mat with a polyisocyanurate permeated therethrough and a surface layer integrally formed on the substrate. The amount of the polyisocyanurate is so determined that the density of the polyisocyanurate in said substrate is 1.2 to 1.9 times as much as the density of the same polyisocyanurate in its free foaming state. The surface layer may include a fabric, a resilient foam and a thermoplastic resin sheet in layers, or alternatively may include non-foamed plastic as an outer layer and foamed plastic as an inner layer. A method for manufacturing the above interior member for vehicles is neither complicated nor costly.
