Abstract: A network of a new configuration is flexibly constructed while maintaining a stable operation in the network. A management device includes: a detection unit that detects addition of a function unit to a network including one or a plurality of on-vehicle function units; an acquisition unit that acquires function unit information of a new function unit that is the function unit the addition of which has been detected by the detection unit and function unit information of each on-vehicle function unit, each piece of function unit information including information regarding network configuration of a layer lower than an application layer; and a generation unit that, based on the pieces of function unit information acquired by the acquisition unit, generates configuration information of a new network that is the network further including the new function unit.

Abstract: A quality evaluation device operates to: detect a defect present in a component based on a detection result obtained by a non-destructive inspection method; extract feature amounts of the defect from detection information of the defect; specify an evaluation target site in which the defect is present in the component; acquire one or more usage state information values associated with the evaluation target site, the usage state information values being estimated values that represent physical characteristics of the evaluation target site when the component is used; and determine, based at least on the feature amounts and the one or more usage state information values, whether or not the defect is an aggressive defect.

Abstract: A vehicle body side part structure having high strength against a load in a frontal collision and a load in a side collision. A side panel outer member (14) is provided with a front pillar lower section (31) which is formed from a high-tensile steel sheet, a front pillar upper section (37a) which is formed from a normal steel sheet, and a reinforcement member (38) which is disposed along the front pillar upper section. The upper end (31a) of the front pillar lower section (31) is joined to the inner surface of the lower end (37c) of the front pillar upper section. The front end (38a) of the reinforcement member (38) is joined to the inner surface of the upper end (31a) of the front pillar lower section.

Abstract: A center pillar section formed of a high-tensile steel plate is fixed to a side panel frame section including a roof rail section formed of an ordinary-tensile steel plate. A reinforcing member formed of a high-tensile steel plate is provided inside the roof rail section, and the center pillar section is fixed at its upper end portion to the outer surface of the reinforcing member and at its lower end portion to the side sill section. A door beam provided within a front door overlaps the center pillar section and lower portion of a front pillar section. Front and rear end portions of the door beam are opposed to respective increased-width portions of the front pillar section and center pillar section.

Abstract: Provided is a mask with a nosal cushion, the mask consisting of a filter that filters dust, wherein, the edges of the filter are folded back to create flaps that follow the depressions on both sides of the nosal region. A sponge of urethane foam or the like is affixed inside the flaps, thereby improving the fit of the mask by conforming the mask to the contours of the nosal region, resulting in a mask cushion with a nosal cushion that has cushioning properties and strong protective capabilities.

Abstract: Provided is a mask which can be folded small and has improved portability and storability. A mask which can be folded small characterized in that, as FIG. 1 shows, a filter part, which comprises single or multi layered filter material and provides a rectangular section at the center when folded in two along the center line, is provided; triangular filter parts, each having the major side of the rectangular filter part as the bottom side, are formed in an integrated manner in the longitudinal direction of the rectangle, and tightening strings are attached to the respective minor sides of the rectangular filter part.

Abstract: An automotive vehicle body structure including a dash panel separating an engine room from a passenger compartment, a front pillar extending vertically along each outboard edge of the dash panel and a wheel house portion connected between an outboard edge of the dash panel and an opposing side of a lower part of the front pillar, a reinforcing member extends along a boundary between the outboard edge of the dash panel and wheel house portion and defines a closed cross section jointly with the dash panel and wheel house. The wheel house portion has a three dimensional contour bulging toward the passenger compartment and relatively high rigidity to reinforce the dash panel by reinforcing the boundary between the wheel house portion and dash panel. The impact load applied to the dash panel during a frontal crash is evenly distributed to various structural parts and a favorable crash safety is achieved.

Abstract: A center pillar section formed of a high-tensile steel plate is fixed to a side panel frame section including a roof rail section formed of an ordinary-tensile steel plate. A reinforcing member formed of a high-tensile steel plate is provided inside the roof rail section, and the center pillar section is fixed at its upper end portion to the outer surface of the reinforcing member and at its lower end portion to the side sill section. A door beam provided within a front door overlaps the center pillar section and lower portion of a front pillar section. Front and rear end portions of the door beam are opposed to respective increased-width portions of the front pillar section and center pillar section.

Abstract: Side sill includes a side sill body formed of a steel plate, and a side sill reinforcing member formed by extruding an aluminum alloy and provided inside the side sill body. Reinforcing bracket formed by casting an aluminum alloy covers the outer surface of the side sill body. The reinforcing bracket has protruding portions projecting, through through-holes formed in the side sill body, generally toward the interior of the side sill to be fixed to portions of the side sill reinforcing member, so that the side sill reinforcing member is restrainedly held by the reinforcing bracket.
