  • Publication number: 20190291216
    Abstract: The fatigue strength of a lap-welded joint, wherein an overlapping portion of a first steel material and an overlapping portion of a second steel material overlap with each other, and an edge portion of the first steel material is welded to a front face of the second steel material with a weld zone extending along the edge portion, is improved. First, when a direction perpendicular to an extending direction X of the weld zone and parallel to a front face of the second steel material is defined as a reference direction Y, the lap-welded joint is restrained from moving in the reference direction Y, and the first steel material and the second steel material are restrained from moving in their sheet-thickness directions. In this state, a portion of the second steel material is heated such that a melted portion is formed in the portion of the second steel material.

  • Patent number: 10205502
    Abstract: A control unit of an aircraft includes a computer that predicts the current position of a wingman aircraft based on a temporal change in wingman-aircraft position information indicating the position of the wingman aircraft; an antenna selector that selects, from among multiple antennas, an antenna with which the elongation ?t with respect to the center axis of the antenna at the predicted current position of the wingman aircraft predicted by the computer falls within a coverage angle ?; and a beam controller that executes communication with the wingman aircraft via the antenna selected by the antenna selector. Thus, the control unit of the aircraft can select an optimal antenna for communication with the wingman aircraft from among the multiple antennas.
