    Using The Improved Magnitude Method To Forecast Damage Level Caused By Typhoon 9918

    In 1999, Typhoon 9918 struck Kyushu Island, which is located in Western Japan. The maximum anomaly storm tide was estimated to be about 3 m along a coast. Due to the storm surge and wind waves the typhoon caused enormous damage to maritime structures. In this paper, the number of damage cases of maritime structures along the coastline caused by Typhoon 9918 is estimated by using the so-called Magnitude Method. The Magnitude Method is defined based on the maximum wind speed near the center and the size of the typhoon at a latitude of 30° N. The size of the typhoon is defined as the area for which the wind speed is greater than 15 m/s. The intensity of the typhoon is defined as the area in which the maximum wind speed occurred. The magnitude of a typhoon is defined by a combination of the rank of its intensity and its size. The number of damage cases is estimated as follows: The path of Typhoon 9918 is determined from the location and the moving direction of the typhoon at a latitude of 30° N. The vulnerability index of each coast is determined based on the path of the typhoon and coastline. The value of the so-called smoothed number of damage cases is calculated by using the index of vulnerability and the magnitude of Typhoon 9918 at a latitude of 30° N. The value of the damage cases along a coast is estimated by substituting the value of smoothed number of damage cases and the total number of damage cases by all 74 typhoons during past 25 years at the same coast. The Improved Magnitude Method can be used to estimate the number of damage cases of maritime structures that will occur along the coast before a typhoon strikes

    動脈硬化を伴う腎下極への腎動脈分枝による高齢者の腎盂尿管移行部狭窄症の2例

    Get PDF
    症例1は83歳女, 主訴は左側腹部痛と高熱である.左尿管カテーテル留置し, 抗生剤投与とエンドトキシン吸着療法施行後, 手術にて腎下極を支配する動静脈による腎盂尿管移行部の圧迫が左水腎症の原因であると判明, これらの切断にて閉塞を解除した.症例2は82歳男, 主訴は右側腹部痛で, 既往歴に高血圧があった.腎血管造影にて腎下極への動脈の圧迫による水腎症が原因と判明.この動脈の切断と腎盂形成術にて軽快.2例とも長期に高血圧症を患い, 軽度から重度の動脈硬化を呈していた.動脈硬化による腎盂尿管移行部の締め付けが, 高齢者に発症し, 増悪する水腎症の一因と考えられるAn 83-year-old woman presented with left flank pain and high grade fever. After left ureteral catheterization and intensive chemotherapy with hemoperfusion, surgical exploration revealed the lower pole branches of the renal vessels were obstructing the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ), and dissection of the vessels released the obstruction. An 82-year-old man presented with right flank pain. Angiography demonstrated UPJ obstruction caused by the lower pole branch of the renal artery. Arterial dissection with dismembered pyeloplasty resulted in improvement of obstruction. In both cases, the patients had a long history of hypertension with mild to severe arteriosclerosis. Arteriosclerosis associated with fixation of the UPJ, may be one of the important factors leading to progressive hydronephrosis in geriatric patients

    ビザンティン聖堂壁画における預言者像:形、場、意味

    Get PDF
    ギリシア北部、マケドニア地方のヴェリアにある救世主キリスト復活聖堂(以下、キリスト聖堂と略す)は、14世紀初頭に建てられた単廊式のバシリカ小聖堂で、内部に画家カリエルギスによる創建当初からのフレスコを有する。身廊の壁面は三段の帯状に分割され、上段に新約の諸場面、中断に預言者や四福音書記者、諸聖人の胸像を含むメダイヨン、下段に修道士や軍人聖人などの全身像が描かれる。また、東壁のアブシスのコンクに立像の聖母子と二天使、コンク下部に四人の教父が配される。東壁最上段の破風状区画には「インマヌエルのキリスト」のメダイヨンを支える二天使と、旧約の王ダヴィデとソロモンが表され、正対する西壁の破風状区画にはどっしりとした体躯のヨアキムとアンナが描かれる。筆者は現在、このような装飾プログラムを有するキリスト聖堂の壁画について、特に中断のメダイヨンにおいて巻物を広げて左右を仰ぎ見る旧約の預言者像に注目して考察を進めているが、その描かれ方や構図上の特徴を明らかにするには、その前に、広くビザンティン聖堂一般において旧約の預言者がどのように表されているのかを把握しておかなければならない
