Abstract: This hot-rolled copper alloy sheet contains Mg: 0.2 mass % or more and 2.1 mass % or less, Al: 0.4 mass % or more and 5.7 mass % or less, and Ag: 0.01 mass % or less, with a remainder being Cu and inevitable impurities, an area ratio of Cube orientation (area ratio of crystal orientation) measured by an EBSD method is 5% or less, an average KAM value when a boundary between adjacent pixels where an orientation difference between the pixels is 5° or more is regarded as a crystal grain boundary is 2.0 or less, and an average crystal grain size ? in a sheet-thickness central portion is 40 ?m or less.

Abstract: A call control system performs call control for a terminal which accesses different radio access network systems. A communication exchange processing apparatus includes: a device storing maximum bandwidth for specified calls processed in the radio access network system; a device measuring present bandwidth for specified calls presently processed in the radio access network system; a device computing a ratio of the present bandwidth to the maximum bandwidth for specified calls; and a device sending specified call band ratio information indicating the ratio of present bandwidth to maximum bandwidth for specified calls to a radio network control apparatus in the radio access network system and connected to the present communication exchange processing apparatus. The radio network control apparatus provided in the radio access network system includes a device sending the specified call band ratio information to a terminal which is connected to the present radio network control apparatus by radio communication.

Abstract: There is provided a fixed abrasive wire having abrasives fixed thereon with a superior fixing strength. The abrasives are fixed on the wire by electroplating in which the wire is subjected to a degreasing step, an acid cleaning step, a rinsing step and an electroplating step sequentially. A plating liquid used in the electroplating step contains a nickel-containing organic acid or a nickel-containing inorganic acid, a leveling agent, and the abrasives. It is a feature that a plated coat being over the top of each of the abrasives has a smaller thickness than a theoretical value.

Abstract: A hydraulic pressure control device is provided that that controls hydraulic pressure of a clutch supplying torque to a continuously variable transmission while the vehicle is stopped and in a running range. The hydraulic pressure control device has an control section that estimates a clutch engagement hydraulic pressure for the clutch based on initially rotational movement of a primary pulley of the continuously variable transmission, and then controls regulation of the hydraulic pressure to the clutch to a designated pressure that is no greater than the clutch engagement hydraulic pressure, when the vehicle is stopped and in the running range, so that the torque from the engine does not rotate a secondary pulley of the continuously variable transmission.

Abstract: Disclosed is a data collector that collects a first data string sent by a control unit to a network according to a predetermined format. The control unit has a first identification number, and the first data string includes the first identification number and a parameter which is used to control a vehicle or a vehicle component. The data collector includes a first collecting means for collecting the first data string sent by the control unit; and a second collecting means for collecting a second data string sent by a data converter. The data converter has a second identification number different from the first identification number of the control unit and the second data string conforms to the predetermined format. The data converter converts analog data sent from a sensor that detects a driving condition of the vehicle into digital data, puts the second identification number and the digital data in the second data string to be sent, and sends the second data string at a predetermined interval.

Abstract: A polishing agent for polishing a surface of a target object without unduly scratching it includes mother particles and very fine abrading particles which are supported on the surfaces of the mother particles and remain so supported during a polishing process, becoming reattached if removed. Such an agent is produced by adding the mother particles into the abrading particles and stirring them together. In a polishing process, a specified amount of such an agent is supplied onto a lapping plate and a lapping process is carried out while the plate is rotated at a specified rotational speed.

Abstract: A processing tool is used to carry out a fixed-abrasive grinding process on a surface of a silicon work-piece. The processing tool includes abrasive grains made up silica grains. A primary average grain size of the silica grains is desirably 0.8 nm to 10 ?m.
