Abstract: A noise generation cause identifying method and a noise generation cause identifying device are provided. A response correcting process corrects a sound signal obtained through a sound signal obtaining process based on obtained model information so that a frequency response of the obtained sound signal approaches a frequency response of a learning sound signal. A variable obtaining process obtains a variable output from a map by inputting the corrected sound signal to the map. A cause identifying process identifies a generation cause of a sound picked up by a microphone using the variable obtained through the variable obtaining process.

Abstract: A mapping, which is as a subject of learning, is a learning model that uses a sound signal as an input variable and outputs a variable indicating the cause of a sound in a vehicle. A learning method includes a signal correction process that corrects a sound signal by superimposing a noise signal on the sound signal, and an update process that updates the mapping through machine learning in which the sound signal corrected in the signal correction process serves as training data and a cause of a sound paired with the sound signal serves as teaching data.

Abstract: A method for generating a numerical control program includes first-fourth steps. In the first step, elements related to the shape of a material are created on the basis of information related to the shape of the material. In the second step, processing is executed in which the elements related to the shape of the material which were created in the first step are read into areas to be subjected to processing in the third step. In the third step, a tool path is generated for each element read in the second step. In the fourth step, the tool paths generated for each element in the third step are connected.

Abstract: A first dog ring and a second dog ring are biased toward each other by means of springs. When the first dog ring and the second dog ring are moved away from each other, bias force produced by the springs is applied to the second dog ring in a direction to draw the second dog ring toward the first dog ring. Accordingly, when the first dog ring is moved away from the second dog ring during shifting, the second dog ring is drawn toward the first dog ring under the bias force, and third engaging teeth of the second dog ring and meshing teeth of a first-speed gear are promptly disengaged from each other.
