  • Publication number: 20240116364
    Abstract: A virtual image display apparatus includes a housing having a first housing part and a second housing part. The first housing part is located on a side facing in a first direction. The second housing part is located on a side facing in a second direction being opposite to the first direction. A composite wall is located at the housing on a side facing in a third direction being perpendicular to the first direction. The composite wall includes a first front wall portion and a second front wall portion. The first front wall portion is extended from the first housing part. The second front wall portion is extended from the second housing part. The first and second front wall portions have an interference avoidance structure that avoids interference when the first and second front wall portions approach each other by receiving a load.

  • Publication number: 20240068380
    Abstract: There is provided a pit initiation evaluation system or the like capable of predicting pit initiation effectively and at low cost. In a pit initiation evaluation system of an embodiment, a pit initiation evaluation unit creates and retains, based on a dry-wet alternate time data, a deposit impurity concentration data, and a pit initiation data on pitting corrosion initiated in each of a plurality of turbine stages when an operation is actually performed in the steam turbine, a pit initiation evaluation table presenting a relationship between a dry-wet alternate time, a deposit impurity concentration, and pit initiation. Further, the pit initiation evaluation unit is configured to evaluate, by using the pit initiation evaluation table, pitting corrosion to be initiated in each of the plurality of turbine stages in an operation planned for the steam turbine.
