Low Cycle Fatigue Damage of Mod.9Cr-1Mo Steel under Non-Proportional Multiaxial Loading

AbstractThis study discusses multiaxial low cycle fatigue damage of Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel under proportional and non-proportional loadings at room and high (823K) temperatures. Strain-controlled multiaxial low cycle fatigue tests were carried out using a hollow cylinder specimen including interruption tests. Strain paths employed were a push-pull straining, a reversed torsion straining and a circle straining. Behaviors of cyclic deformations and failure lives and an evaluation of the failure life are discussed. Surface cracks and microstructures in fatigued specimens are also observed by a digital microscope and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) in order to investigate mechanisms of cyclic deformation, failure and reduction in failure life due to non-proportional loading

Two Cases of Endogenous Endophthalmitis Caused by Gram-Positive Bacteria with Good Visual Outcome

Background: Endogenous endophthalmitis is a rare disease and its visual prognosis is poor. Case Reports: We present two patients, a 60-year-old man and a 53-year-old man, who developed endogenous endophthalmitis caused byGram-positive organismsbut recovered good vision after antibiotics and vitrectomy. Results: The first patient complained of ocular pain and visual decrease in his right eye. Ophthalmoscopy showed inflammation in the anterior chamber and vitreous opacities. Antibiotic was administrated systemically, and blood culture detected Streptococcus anginosus. He underwent successful heart surgery for endocarditis and total dental extraction for severe gingivitis. Vitrectomy was performed 36 days after the onset and vision improved from 0.02 to 0.7. The second patient was referred for acute visual decrease in his left eye. Severe iritis and vitreous opacities were observed, and systemic examination showed acute pyelitis and prostatic abscesses. Blood cultures detected Staphylococcus sp., and systemic antibiotics were given. Vitrectomy was performed 12 days after the onset, and vision improved from 0.06 to 1.2. Conclusions: We conclude that the rapid treatment with systemic antibiotics for the organisms at the primary site, and the vitrectomy, even though delayed, can lead to a good recovery of vision

いわゆる『逆転移』は心理療法において頻繁に生じ、またとても重要である。しかしながら経験の少ない初心心理療法家にとって逆転移に適切に対処することは容易ではない。クライン,J.が開発たインタラクティブフォーカシングはこの『逆転移』を感じ、吟味するのに有効な方法であることがわかった。そこで私たちが経験した初心心理療法家のインタラクティブフォーカシングの例をあげて、その意味について検討する。はじめに逆転移の意味について精神分析の観点と心理療法のより広い文脈から論じた。次に『逆転移』を経験するために調整したインタラクティブフォーカシングの方法を紹介し、例をあげた。最後に『逆転移』に関連したインタラクティブフォーカシングの意味について検討した。So called “countertransference” in psychotherapy frequently occurs and is very important. However, it isn’t easy to deal with countertransference adequately for beginner psychotherapists who have little experience. Interactive Focusing devised by Klein ,J. was found to be effective to practice feeling and examining “countertransference”. So I report the example of the interactive focusing of beginner psychotherapists we experienced , and discuss the meanings.First, I discussed the meanings of “countertransference” from the viewpoint of psychoanalysis and more general contexts of psychotherapy. Then I introduced the way of interactive focusing adjusted to experience “countertransference” and reported the example. Finally, the meanings of interactive focusing related to “countertransference” were discussed.Key Words: countertransference, psychotherapy, beginner psychotherapists, interactive focusing ,psychoanalysi
