Abstract

The DC power transmission system of an embodiment has one DC transmission line, a transmission-side power converter, a reception-side power converter, an energy consuming device, and a control device. The DC transmission line transmits DC power. The transmission-side power converter converts AC power to DC power, said AC power being supplied by a renewable energy power supply interconnected to the transmission side, and outputs the DC power to the DC transmission line. The reception-side power converter converts the DC power transmitted by the DC transmission line to AC power and supplies the AC power to the reception side. The energy consuming device is connected to a position between an AC power transmission system and the DC transmission line on the transmission side and, when the AC power supplied by the renewable energy power supply results in surplus power in association with power variations that have occurred, consumes the surplus power. The control device controls the operation of the energy consuming device.

Abstract

A character recognition device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises an image acquisition unit, a character score calculation unit, a strikethrough score calculation unit, a correction unit, and a decoding unit. The image acquisition unit acquires an image in which a character is written. The character score calculation unit calculates, for a frame obtained as a result of the image acquired by the image acquisition unit being divided in a prescribed direction, a character class score that expresses the likeness to a to-be-recognized character class. The strikethrough score calculation unit calculates, for a frame, a strikethrough score that expresses the likeness to a strikethrough character. The correction unit corrects the character class score such that, as the strikethrough score of a frame becomes higher, the character class score becomes relatively smaller. The decoding unit estimates a plausible recognition result on the basis of the character class score for each frame after correction.

According to one embodiment, this embedded magnet rotor (100) has: a rotor shaft; a rotor core (120) in which a plurality of permanent magnet storage spaces (121) are formed; and plate-shaped permanent magnets (130). Each permanent magnet storage space (121) has a communication opening (128) which extends further radially outward than a range in which the permanent magnet (130) is held by a magnet-holding outer protrusion (123b), and which communicates with a gap space (15). The communication opening (128) is formed so as to be sandwiched between two tips (127a, 127b). In a cross section perpendicular to a rotational axis direction, the thickness of the two tips (127a, 127b) in the radial direction and the width of the communication opening (128) in the circumferential direction are formed to have a dimensional relationship such that a fragment produced by damage to the permanent magnet (130) does not protrude from the communication opening (128) and contact a stator.

Abstract

A simulator abnormality determination system according to an embodiment of the present invention determines an abnormality of each simulator by using a controller that executes processing of synchronizing one or a plurality of simulators with one another. The controller causes each simulator to: start simulation processing to be executed in a specific period; transmit, to the controller in specific cycles, a keep-alive notification indicating that the simulator is alive until the simulator completes the simulation processing; and transmit, to the controller, a completion notification indicating completion of the processing when the processing is complete. The controller determines that a simulator that has transmitted a keep-alive notification is normal when receiving the keep-alive notification in specific cycles, determines that a simulator that has transmitted a completion notification has completed the processing when receiving the completion notification, or determines that a simulator not determined to have completed the processing is abnormal when a keep-alive notification is not transmitted from the simulator in specific cycles.

Abstract

A laser removal method according to an embodiment involves using a laser beam to irradiate a filmy body formed on a substrate to remove the filmy body. The laser removal method comprises the steps of: irradiating a filmy body with a first laser beam and moving the irradiation position of the first laser beam to form a linear recess in the filmy body; and using a second laser beam to irradiate the filmy body, which is in a region defined by the linear recess. The first laser beam has a wavelength at which absorptivity with regard to the filmy body is higher than absorptivity with regard to the substrate. The second laser beam has a wavelength at which absorptivity with regard to the substrate is higher than absorptivity with regard to the filmy body.
