Abstract: A measuring device for measuring an inspection target on the basis of vibration generated when the inspection target has been irradiated with laser light includes a condensing position deriving portion configured to derive an amount of adjustment of a distance between condensing lenses of a laser condensing unit configured to condense the laser light on the basis of a distance between a laser device configured to radiate the laser light and an irradiation location of the laser light and a communicating portion configured to transmit control information including information representing the amount of adjustment to the laser condensing unit.

Abstract: In a system cooperating a high performance computer and a low performance computer, a load of database processing upon the low performance computer is reduced. In a high performance center running DBMS for managing each version by using logical structure data of a database as physical structure pages and one or more terminals having a lower performance than that of the center, an update difference file is created for a center side received command input to the center, a backup file is created for a terminal side received command input to the terminal, and a version applied with the terminal side received command is updated to a version after update, by sequentially overwrite copying the backup file and update difference file.

Abstract: A pressure measurement system may provide ready manufacturing, reliable operation, and/or enhanced performance by using a circuit board housing. In particular implementations, a pressure measurement system includes a pressure inlet joint, a pressure detecting component, a circuit board, and a circuit board housing. The pressure detecting component is coupled to the pressure inlet joint, which is adapted to introduce a pressure of a fluid. The circuit board is coupled to the pressure detecting component and is operable to condition an electrical signal from the pressure detecting component. The circuit board housing at least partially encloses the pressure detecting component and is adapted to engage the circuit board. The circuit board housing has a substantially cylindrical shape and includes a larger diameter section and a smaller diameter section, the smaller diameter section coupled to the pressure inlet joint, the circuit board located at least in part in the larger diameter section.

Abstract: A lease-business support apparatus collects latest information from a brand-new-sales-company terminal, a secondhand-sales-company terminal, a leasing-company terminal, and a maintenance-company terminal which are related to lease business. By performing quality management and appropriate fixed-period-sales-price calculation based on the latest information, the lease-business support apparatus provides each customer terminal with appropriate lease-business information. This makes it possible to inexpensively lease a high-quality item.

Abstract: A thermoplastic elastomer composition comprising (A) 10-90 parts by weight of crystalline polypropylene, (B) 10-90 parts by weight of brominated butyl rubber, (C) 10-120 parts by weight of olefinic copolymer rubber to 100 parts by weight of (A)+(B), and (D) 10-150 parts by weight of process oil as plasticizer to 100 parts by weight (A)+(B), all of which are dynamically vulcanized in the presence of a peroxide crosslinking agent.The thermoplastic elastomer composition of this invention has a high gel ratio or gel content in part because brominated butyl rubber is vulcanized with peroxide. The composition has good elasticity, high mechanical strength, low compressively permanent set, excellent long-term heat stability, moldability, and gas impermeability and high damping characteristic.
