Abstract: A method for manufacturing composites in which the nanosize of a carbon material and a metal compound can be maintained as the final product is realized to provide a superior electrode material. A treatment of increasing the functional groups possessed by a carbon material is performed in advance. Then, a metal compound precursor is supported on a carbon material by separately performing a treatment of adsorbing one of source materials of the metal compound to the functional groups of the carbon material having increased functional groups and a treatment of reacting the adsorbed source material of the metal compound with the rest of the source materials on the carbon material to produce a metal compound precursor on the carbon material. Finally, a lithium source is introduced and calcined.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a storage unit, an interpretation unit, and a correction unit. The storage unit stores plural correction instructions. The interpretation unit interprets a correction instruction stored in the storage unit. The correction unit corrects a recognized character string in accordance with the correction instruction interpreted by the interpretation unit. The interpretation unit determines the type of the correction instruction, and extracts a first character string including one or more characters serving as a target of the correction instruction and a second character string obtained by performing conversion of a part of or whole the first character string, in accordance with the type of the correction instruction. The correction unit, in a case where the first character string exists in the recognized character string, converts a part of or whole the first character string within the recognized character string into the second character string.

Abstract: An external control type fan clutch device has a sealed housing with a torque transmission chamber incorporating a drive disk therein. The drive disk has an oil reserving chamber. The sealed housing is supported on a rotary shaft with the drive disk fixed thereto. A valve member (armature) controls opening and closing of an oil circulating flow passage hole provided on a side wall of the oil reserving chamber. The valve member has magnetism and is actuated by an electromagnet supported on the rotary shaft for opening or closing the oil circulating flow passage hole. A ring-like magnetic body is disposed between the electromagnet and the rotary shaft for efficiently transmitting a magnetic flux of the electromagnet to the armature of the valve member.

Abstract: A transport device includes a transport unit that transports a paper sheet, a cutter unit that cuts the paper sheet, and a controller that, when transport of the paper sheet is to be halted, controls the transport unit so that the transport unit halts an ideal cut line of the paper sheet corresponding to a specified length of the paper sheet at a more upstream side in a direction of the transport of the paper sheet when a specified length of the paper sheet is shorter than a threshold length than when the specified length of the paper sheet is longer than the threshold length.

Abstract: A storage device includes a plurality of control devices to control writing data into one or more storages. Each of the plurality of control devices includes an interface unit and a processor. The interface unit transmits and receives data. The processor acquires first checking information added to first data to be written into a first storage. The processor acquires second checking information calculated based on the first data. The processor compares the first checking information and the second checking information. The processor reports an error by way of the interface unit when a result of the comparison indicates inconsistency between the first checking information and the second checking information.
