Detection of Road Surface Damage Using Mobile Robot Equipped with 2D Laser Scanner
Abstract-This paper introduces a road surface damage detection using mobile robot. Our research is aimed autonomous sidewalk investigation with mobile robot, for reduce the burden of human workers engaged in road maintenance. A mobile robot moves along the route for investigation and obtain shape information of road surface using 2D laser scanner. From this road surface information, road damage section will be automatically detected. By showing the detection result instead of site investigation by human workers, it expects to reduce the burden of human workers. Road surface have gradual curves and some road damage is small and less than 2 cm. Hence, our method uses random sampling to detect irregularity as road damage. This paper explains the measurement of road surface using mobile robot equipped with 2D laser scanner and the road damage detection method. In this paper, some experimental results also is shown
Color superconductivity on the lattice -- analytic predictions from QCD in a small box
We investigate color superconductivity on the lattice using the gap equation
for the Cooper pair condensate. The weak coupling analysis is justified by
choosing the physical size of the lattice to be smaller than the QCD scale,
while keeping the aspect ratio of the lattice small enough to suppress thermal
excitations. In the vicinity of the critical coupling constant that separates
the superconducting phase and the normal phase, the gap equation can be
linearized, and by solving the corresponding eigenvalue problem, we obtain the
critical point and the Cooper pair condensate without assuming its explicit
form. The momentum components of the condensate suggest spatially isotropic
s-wave superconductivity with Cooper pairs formed by quarks near the Fermi
surface. The chiral symmetry in the massless limit is spontaneously broken by
the Cooper pair condensate, which turns out to be dominated by the scalar and
the pseudo-scalar components. Our results provide useful predictions, in
particular, for future lattice simulations based on methods to overcome the
sign problem such as the complex Langevin method.Comment: 30 pages, 15 figures, 1 table, v2: A.3 modified, Ref. [57] adde
KAgoshima Galactic Object survey with Nobeyama 45-metre telescope by Mapping in Ammonia lines (KAGONMA): Discovery of parsec-scale CO depletion in the Canis Major star-forming region
In observational studies of infrared dark clouds, the number of detections of
CO freeze-out onto dust grains (CO depletion) at pc-scale is extremely limited,
and the conditions for its occurrence are, therefore, still unknown. We report
a new object where pc-scale CO depletion is expected. As a part of Kagoshima
Galactic Object survey with Nobeyama 45-m telescope by Mapping in Ammonia lines
(KAGONMA), we have made mapping observations of NH3 inversion transition lines
towards the star-forming region associated with the CMa OB1 including IRAS
07077-1026, IRAS 07081-1028, and PGCC G224.28-0.82. By comparing the spatial
distributions of the NH3 (1,1) and C18O (J=1-0), an intensity anti-correlation
was found in IRAS 07077-1026 and IRAS 07081-1028 on the ~1 pc scale.
Furthermore, we obtained a lower abundance of C18O at least in IRAS 07077-1026
than in the other parts of the star-forming region. After examining high
density gas dissipation, photodissociation, and CO depletion, we concluded that
the intensity anti-correlation in IRAS 07077-1026 is due to CO depletion. On
the other hand, in the vicinity of the centre of PGCC G224.28-0.82, the
emission line intensities of both the NH3 (1,1) and C18O (J=1-0) were strongly
detected, although the gas temperature and density were similar to IRAS
07077-1026. This indicates that there are situations where C18O (J=1-0) cannot
trace dense gas on the pc scale and implies that the conditional differences
that C18O (J=1-0) can and cannot trace dense gas are unclear.Comment: 19 pages, 15 figures, 4 tables, accepted for Publications of the

Sub-kpc scale gas density histogram of the Galactic molecular gas: a new statistical method to characterise galactic-scale gas structures
To understand physical properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) on various
scales, we investigate it at parsec resolution on the kiloparsec scale. Here,
we report on the sub-kpc scale Gas Density Histogram (GDH) of the Milky Way.
The GDH is a density probability distribution function (PDF) of the gas volume
density. Using this method, we are free from an identification of individual
molecular clouds and their spatial structures. We use survey data of CO
and CO (=1-0) emission in the Galactic plane (-) obtained as a part of the FOREST Unbiased Galactic
plane Imaging survey with the Nobeyama 45m telescope (FUGIN). We make a GDH for
every channel map of area, including the blank sky
component, and without setting cloud boundaries. This is a different approach
from previous works for molecular clouds. The GDH fits well to a single or
double log-normal distribution, which we name the low-density log-normal (L-LN)
and high-density log-normal (H-LN) components, respectively. The
multi-log-normal components suggest that the L-LN and H-LN components originate
from two different stages of structure formation in the ISM. Moreover, we find
that both the volume ratios of H-LN components to total () and
the width of the L-LN along the gas density axis () show
coherent structure in the Galactic-plane longitude-velocity diagram. It is
possible that these GDH parameters are related to strong galactic shocks and
other weak shocks in the Milky Way
Effects of continuous supplementation of Acanthopanax senticosus Harms on the cardiac autonomic function of community-dwelling elderly individuals during resting and standing tests: a randomized controlled trial
BackgroundCardiac autonomic function (CAF) decreases with aging, and Acanthopanax senticosus Harms (ASH) consumption reportedly induces anti-stress effects. This study aimed to assess the effect of continuous supplementation of ASH on CAF during resting and standing tests in the elderly population.MethodsThis double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted in the morning in a laboratory setting and was carried out between June 2017 and July 2017 at Kambaikan, Doshisha University (Karasuma-higashi-iru, Imadegawa-dori, Kamigyo-ku, Kyoto 602-8580, Japan). In total, 28 community-dwelling elderly individuals (mean ± standard deviation = 72.5 ± 4.5 years) were included. Each subject was instructed to consume ASH or placebo supplements twice daily for 4 weeks. An autonomic reflex orthostatic tolerance recorder was used to measure CAF in pre- and post-intervention phases. Parameters were measured in a seated position and included coefficient of variation of R-R intervals (CVRR), low frequency (LF), high frequency (HF), LF/HF ratio, blood pressure, and heart rate (HR). Changes in each parameter were evaluated before and after standing. All parameters were defined as the difference between the mean value obtained in a standing position for 2 min and that obtained in a 2-min seated position.ResultsA two-way analysis of variance revealed a significant group-time interaction effect on CVRR, HF, and ΔLF/HF ratio. Following the intervention, CVRR, HF, LF/HF ratio, systolic blood pressure (SBP), HR, ΔLF/HF ratio, ΔSBP, and ΔHR improved significantly in the ASH group only.ConclusionsFour-week supplementation of ASH improved CAF in community-dwelling elderly individuals during resting and standing tests.Clinical Trial Registrationhttps://center6.umin.ac.jp/cgi-open-bin/ctr/ctr_view.cgi?recptno=R000031218, UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000027251)
