A welding position detecting apparatus for laser beam welding includes: an imaging device that captures, at a predetermined time interval, images of an irradiated portion of a welding material irradiated with a welding laser beam, and a surrounding area thereof, of a welding material; an image processing device that identifies a position of the irradiated portion irradiated with the welding laser beam by performing image processing calculating, from two or more images acquired by the imaging device, a direction and an amount of parallel movement of points in the images; and a display device that displays the position of the irradiated portion irradiated with the welding laser beam, the position being identified by the image processing device.

Welding position detecting apparatus and welding position detecting method for laser beam welding

There is provided a method for manufacturing a laser welded steel pipe in which the status of laser welding is accurately assessed, and the assessment is used to modify welding conditions, so that laser welded steel pipes can be manufactured at a high yield rate and in a stable manner. Irradiation point(s) of laser beam(s), with which the longitudinal edges are irradiated from the side of the outer surface, are monitored from the side of the inner surface of an open pipe, and then conditions of welding with the laser beam(s) are assessed to be kept unchanged if any keyhole is found penetrating out of the inner surface of the open pipe, or modified if no keyhole is found penetrating out of the inner surface of the open pipe.

The present invention aims to provide coated papers for newsprint inks having fast ink drying properties comparable to those of conventional newsprint papers, without stickiness, and having good reproduction and sharpness of printed images comparable to those of coated papers printed using penetration drying type inks; as well as processes for preparing them. The invention provides for a coated printing paper for newsprint inks comprising a coating layer containing a pigment and an adhesive on a base paper, characterized in that the coating layer on the base paper has a coat weight of 4.0 g/mor more per side and that the coated paper has an oil absorbency under pressure of 20 g/mor more and a Bekk smoothness of 75 seconds or less; as well as a process for preparing the paper.

Coated papers for newsprint inks and processes for preparing them

The present invention is an electrophotographic transfer paper where at least one side of the base paper is given a coating layer with a pigment and an adhesive agent to form coated paper and where the aforementioned adhesive contains a branched poly(meth)acrylamide copolymer having a cationic groups and/or anionic groups and also has a weight average molecular weight of 50,000 to 1,000,000. The electrophotographic transfer paper in the present invention has superior high-speed throughput performance despite low basis weight and a low coating weight, therefore, good for high-speed copy machine and printer properties, especially, when it contained a printability improver in the coating layer, it has a good ink adhesion property and surface strength required in offset printing.

Timing verification of the LSI test data is performed as follows. In test synthesis, a script text for static timing analysis (STA) is generated together with a test circuit. The STA script text is used to perform static timing analysis. Function verification is performed between a netlist generated through the test synthesis and a timing-verified netlist based on the static timing analysis. The function-verified netlist is released to a production division, and the netlist is used to automatically generate a test pattern by an automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) tool. A netlist comprising test vectors for automatic test equipment is acquired from the generated ATPG pattern.

In an information processing apparatus such as a space-saving type personal computer having a liquid-cooling type cooling system, the presence of a cooling liquid, the presence of a frozen state of the cooling liquid and the temperature of the cooling liquid are detected. When a freeze of the cooling liquid is detected, a CPU is throttled down to defrost the cooling liquid, or the cooling liquid is heated to be prevented from being frozen. Alternatively, a warning of detection of a freeze may be displayed. Alternatively, activation of the system may be stopped or operation of the system may be interrupted. By such measures, system failure is prevented from being caused by leaking, shortage, freezing, etc. of the cooling liquid.

Method of controlling cooling system for a personal computer and personal computer

In a liquid-cooling system for a notebook personal computer having a body part including a CPU and a chip set respectively mounted on a mother board and an HDD, and a display part rotatably supported by the body part, a heat receiving head is fixed to at least one heat generation part including the CPU. A tube filled with cooling liquid is connected to the heat receiving head. The tube connected to the heat receiving head is disposed in series on at least one heat generation part including the chip set so as to collect the heat generated from each heat generation part. The tube is also laid in a meandering or zigzagging pattern between a liquid crystal panel and a housing of the display part. The heat generated from each heat generation part is absorbed at part of the tube by the cooling liquid that circulates in the tube and functions as a heat transfer medium. The absorbed heat is then radiated at another part of the tube. Consequently, the heat generated from the chip set including the CPU and other heat sources such as the HDD can be radiated together to the outside. Local temperature rising is prevented. An uniform temperature environment is attained on all the surfaces of the body part.

Failure determination of a memory is made in sequence based on address information supplied to the memory using a test circuit built inside the memory, and resultant failure determination information output from a comparator circuit and the address information output from an address counter circuit are fetched in sequence and held in a logic scan chain, whereby the logic scan chain which is originally provided for a logic test is efficiently used also for a memory test so as to obtain information concerning one or more failure locations and the number of failures by one BIST test without addition of a complicated circuit configuration.
