Pragmatic Aspects of Scalar Modifiers

The Semantics-pragmatics Interface

By: Osamu Sawada

This volume examines the meaning of scalar modifiers - expressions such as more than, a bit, and much - from the standpoint of the semantics-pragmatics interface. It draws on data from Japanese and a range of other languages to explore the information expressed by these modifiers at both the semantic and the pragmatic level.

Proceedings of the Sendai International Symposium

Strangeness in Nuclear and Hadronic Systems : SENDAI08, Sendai, Japan, 15-18 December 2008, Pre-Symposium 14 December 2008

By: Kazushige Maeda,Osamu Hashimoto,Satoshi N. Nakamura

This volume is based on the proceedings of the International Symposium on "Strangeness in Nuclear and Hadronic Systems (SENDAI08)," which is the third in a series of symposia on nuclear physics involving strangeness following SENDAI98 and SENDAI03. With the expectation of the completion of new accelerator facilities such as J-PARC and other new experimental facilities, recent theoretical and experimental results and future prospects of strangeness nuclear physics are discussed in great depth by leading experts of the field. The topics involved are electromagnetic production of strangeness, structure and decay of hypernuclei, hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-hyperon interactions, among others. It will also serve as a good textbook for studying the current status of strangeness in nuclear and hadronic physics.

New Horizons in Piling

Development and Application of Press-in Piling

By: Malcolm D. Bolton,Akio Kitamura,Osamu Kusakabe,Masaaki Terashi

The piling industry has, in recent years, developed a variety of press-in piling technologies with a view to mitigate noise & vibration nuisance. This book focuses on the "Walk-on-Pile" type press-in piling system, which offers an alternative engineering solution for piling works. This type of piling has unique features, including the application of the compact piling machine using pre-installed piles as a source of reaction force to jack in a new pile by hydraulic pressure. Moreover, the machine can walk along the top of piles already installed, thus enabling piling in a limited space and headroom with minimum disruption to social functions and services of existing infrastructure. These features are opening up a new horizon in piling, leading to novel application of embedded walls previously considered impossible. This introductory book provides a historical development of press-in piling and various challenging applications worldwide as well as scientific research outcomes, forming a valuable source of reference for readers who are unfamiliar with press-in piling, including project owners, design engineers, practical engineers as well as researchers and students.

Compound Semiconductor Bulk Materials And Characterizations, Volume 2

By: Osamu Oda

This book is concerned with compound semiconductor bulk materials, and has been written for students, researchers and engineers in material science and device fabrication. It provides the elementary and intermediate knowledge of compound semiconductor bulk materials necessary for entry into this field. The first volume described the physical properties, crystal growth technologies, principles of crystal growth, various defects in crystals, characterization techniques and applications, and reviewed various III-V and II-V compound semiconductor materials. In this second volume, other materials are reviewed, including those that have recently received attention such as GaN, AlN, SiC and ZnO for optical and electronic devices.

Hydrogen Gas Embrittlement

Mechanisms, Mechanics, and Design

By: Hisao Matsunaga,Junichiro Yamabe,Osamu Takakuwa,Yuhei Ogawa,Saburo Matsuoka

Hydrogen Gas Embrittlement: Mechanisms, Mechanics, and Design enables readers to understand complicated hydrogen-material interactions and conduct better material selection and strength design for hydrogen components. The book reviews the fundamental mechanisms of hydrogen embrittlement, the various behaviors of hydrogen in metallic materials such as diffusion, solution, and trapping, and emphasizes the necessary properties for effective strength design of various materials under the influence of hydrogen, including tensile properties, fatigue life, fatigue limit, fatigue crack-growth, and fracture toughness. Sections provide experimental data obtained in hydrogen gas at various pressures and temperatures together with the fractographic observations, including practical interpretation of hydrogen compatibility of materials based on tensile, fatigue and fracture mechanics testing results. Material testing machines and methods, the effects of hydrogen on various BCC steels, austenitic steels, and non-ferrous metals, and practical applications and methods of strength design for hydrogen vessels and components are all included as well. - Enables a better understanding of hydrogen-material interactions, allowing for better material selection and strength design - Provides insights on the hydrogen-induced degradation of materials strength at the atomic, macroscale and microscale - Looks at a number of degradative behaviors in a variety of materials, including BCC steels, austenitic steels and non-ferrous metals - Includes verification tests, case studies, applications and experimental data

Classical Mechanics in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics

By: Osamu Morita

This textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students outlines and provides links between classical mechanics and geophysical fluid dynamics. It is particularly suitable for the mechanics and fluids dynamics courses of geophysics, meteorology, or oceanography students as well as serving as a general textbook for a course on geophysical fluid dynamics. It describes the motions of rigid bodies and shows how classical mechanics has important applications to geophysics, as in the precession of the earth, oceanic tide, and the retreat of the moon from the earth owing to the tidal friction. Unlike the more general mechanics textbooks this gives a unique presentation of these applications
