Resilience in Japan's Agricultural Distribution System Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental Sciences Since the 1980s, “pre-contracts,” which predetermine the quality, quantity, and price of agricultural products between producers and consumers, have become common in Japan’s agricult [...]
Quantitative evaluation of a leaf photosynthesis for improving crop productivity by creation of sinusoidal light Department of Agro-environmental Sciences, Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental Sciences In plant factory with artificial lighting, where light condition is consistently controlled, there is a demand for discovering new light environments that enhance crop photosynthesis and improve produ [...]
Clarification of Energy Conversion Processes between Earth's Atmospheric Winds and Space Plasma by Comparison of Numerical Calculations and Observations Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Graduate School of Science The Earth’s atmospheric winds, which influences space plasma in the ionosphere, is required to be elucidated. In this study, we focus on the “quasi-6-day components,” that the quasi- [...]
Study of Heat Transfer Mechanism in Vapor-Liquid Two Phase Flow via Thermo-Informatics Department of Interdisciplinary Engineering Science, Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Engineering Sciences To realize a decarbonized society, improving the energy efficiency of air conditioning systems and transitioning to low-environmental-impact next-generation refrigerants are urgent tasks. However, nov [...]
Surface effect on the gas permeation of nanomembranes and their CO2 selectivity enhancement by post-molecular modification Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering Membrane separation has the potential to be a low-cost CO2 capture technology owing to its simple setup and small energy consumption. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) free-standing nanomembranes (FNM) have [...]
Development of mayenite-type cage shaped crystals for ion storage application. Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering C12A7 mayenite has positively charged cages which can encapsulate anions. We have successfully synthesized mayenite from hydrogarnet precursor prepared by liquid phase method. In addition, we succeede [...]
Architectural Design Methodology for Building Construction Systems for Medium and Large-Scale Wooden Buildings in Okinawa Department of Design, Graduate School of Design The “Act on Promotion of Use of Wood in Public Buildings, etc.” was revised in 2021 to the “Act on Promotion of the Use of Wood in Buildings, etc. to Contribute to the Realization of [...]
Interannual change of the radiative feedbacks and its mechanism on internal variability Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Graduate School of Science It has been widely known that global warming gives a profound influence on society and economics via natural disasters and ecosystem change. It requires us to perform global estimate and measures sinc [...]
