Seat membersare held in a state of being movable with respect to first slide membersor second slide memberscorrespondingly. By rotating screwsin directions to increase the distances d between surfaces A of the first slide membersor the second slide membersand surfaces B of the seat members, chucksare moved in directions to increase the distance between the chucks to apply pretension to a test piece correspondingly. When backlash in a force transmission system from a support part to the respective chucksis eliminated, a biaxial tensile test is started.

Material testing machine that properly performs a tensile test on a test piece

A failure countermeasure support system for efficiently determining upon countermeasures to be executed for remedying a failure of a construction machine, based upon information about the failure. There are provided: a plurality of maintenance databases, and; a structured information databasein which the maintenance information in the maintenance databases, andis structured; a structured information search sectionwhich searches the structured information database on the basis of failure information about a mobile vehicle, and extracts one or more structured information records; and a display control sectionwhich outputs a list of the one or more extracted structured information records. The outputted list includes link information to maintenance information in the maintenance databases, and, corresponding to structured information records which are included in this list.

Failure countermeasure supporting system for mobile vehicle

A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array divided into a plurality of areas, a common data bus connected to an input/output circuit, a plurality of individual data buses connected to different areas of the memory cell array through different paths respectively, and a bidirectional buffer connected to the common data bus and the individual data buses. In the semiconductor memory device, the bidirectional buffers transmit data bidirectionally between the common data bus and a selected one of the individual data buses.

A lens array sheet, a transparent screen using the same, and a rear-projection display device are provided in which it is possible to control a perspective angle for the image in both a horizontal direction and a vertical direction without causing a problem in that a gain of a light is reduced by an optical absorption and an S/N ratio is reduced by an increased white dispersion. First lens and second lens arrays are formed by disposing a plurality of half-cylindrical lenses in parallel on a common plane such that longitudinal directions of the cylindrical lenses should be orthogonal to each other. A unified lens array layer and a shading layer in which a section through which a light does not transmit is formed on a focal plane of the lens array layer form a lens array sheet. Furthermore, fresnel lenses are combined so as to form a transparent screen.
