Development of a HEMS Service for Long-term Operation and Continuous Usage
Get PDFapplication/pdfAfter the Great East Japan Earthquake, Home Energy Management System (HEMS) is watched with interest to conserve electric power consumption. There is a study to more easily control home electric appliances. Moreover, there is a study of visualization for electric power consumption, water and gas. However, the control is hard to determine whether an appliance or communication is a problem in occurrence of an error, and the visualization has difficulty in continuous use. Requirement specifications are two environmental offers. First environment realizes long-term operation of HEMS. Second environment realizes continuous usage of HEMS. This paper develops a HEMS service for long-term operation and continuous usage. The service is implemented by Raspberry Pi, F-PLUG and ECHONET Lite. The service is estimated by two questionnaires. First questionnaire compares our service with existing services. Second questionnaire estimates our service with four phases.departmental bulletin pape
The Future of Nursing Care Service for Elderlies in an Extremely Depopulated Agricultural Community in Japan The Meaning of Continuation of Agriculture for Female Farmers and the Related Home Nursing Care Service System in the Agricultural Community of `N' in Prefecture of 'A'
Get PDFapplication/pdfPurpose of Study : The purpose of this study is that it aims to focus the present situation of Japanese female caretakers in an agricultural community to continue their home nursing care and agriculture and also clarify how they continue to work for home nursing care and agriculture, and the meaning of the continuation for female farmers in a community. Method : The design of this study used the ethnography type investigation. It maens to try clarifing the perception, the idea, and the meaning of the method of life inductively through the data concerning the experience in daily life of a certain group. The methodlogy is very effective to clalify and understand difficult situation of home nursing care in an agricultural community and the behavior of the caretakers who continue home nursing care and agriculture in extreamly agricultural depopulation area. "Extreamly depopulated agricultural area" is considered a social condition that a community social function declines with decreasing the number of population so that local residents are forced difficulty to maintain their standard of quality of life. In another word, "Extreamly depopulated agricultural area" is also called a marginal villege (or community). Results : Several aspects of female agricultural workers in a local community was clarfied : the womens' duty and burden in agricultural work, agricurtural work for satisfaction and home nursing care and the causes in the historical and cultural backgorund. (their value as agricultural labor force, their sexual role, the local regulation from the community). In addition, understanding to the function of life mutual aid system in the local community, the transformation of Japanese agricultural system, combining to continue home nursing care and agriculture, precondition and related factors of combination work (the function of family, agricultural working features, the present situation of elderly class and the current caretakers' level) . We actually found that the meaning of combination work and female famers' behaviors to the present social condition. Consideration : Home nursing care and agriculture are thought to be a continuation from the farm village female caregiver by finding the meaning to satisfy the combination of home nursing care and agriculture in the method of independence and against the reality.departmental bulletin pape
Preparation of SDS-PAGE gel without overlaid water on separating gel
Get PDFapplication/pdfSDS-PAGE is essential for protein experiment in many laboratories. SDS-PAGE gel is constituted by separating and stacking gels. For the preparation of SDS-PAGE gel, the reagent mixture of separating gel is added between glass plates and then, usually, water is overlaid. After the polymerization of the separating gel, the water was removed and the reagent mixture of stacking gel is added. It was suggested from this study that the overlaid water was not essential for the preparation of SDS-PAGE gel.departmental bulletin pape
How do nursing students consider the nursing care for subjects admitted to hospitals designated by the Medical Treatment and Supervision Act (MTSA)
Get PDFapplication/pdf[AIMS] Nursing students who attended a lecture of “Psychiatric nursing care for subjects admitted to hospitals designated by MTSA" reported how they felt about such nursing care. [METHODS] A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted after the lecture among nursing students (in the third grade) regarding what they had “realized", “considered" and “learned" during the 90-minute lecture. This study was approved by Kwassui Women's University, Nursing Study Ethics Committee. [RESULTS] 32 students responded to the questionnaire (the response rate: 44.4%). 23 subcategories and 10 categories were extracted from the students' impressions. 10 categories indicated: (1) behaviors associated with psychiatric symptoms, (2) necessity of MTSA, (3) necessity of treatments, (4) nursing care to support the subjects' lives, (5) change of image to the subjects, (6) collaboration with multi-disciplinary teams, (7) provision of careful nursing care to subjects, (8) anxiety for being harmed, (9) difficulty to cope with, (10) difficulty to support discharge.departmental bulletin pape
Hydrogen producing organism in hot spring -- Research works accomplished by using materials analysis facilities: XXVII(4)--
Get PDFapplication/pdfIn recently, development of the energy not to use the fossil fuel has been demanded, and hydrogen attracts attention as a clean energy. However, some problems are left about H2 manufacturing method. The final aim in this study is to obtain hydrogen-producing bacteria having high hydrogen-producing ability. As a pre-stage, we searched bacteria that produce hydrogen by metagenomic analysis for microorganism in hot spring water as one of search sources. 3 samples of hot spring water in Kanagawa and 6 samples in Shizuoka were analyzed for hydrogen-producing bacteria. As a result, two hydrogen-producing bacteria were detected in the hot spring water in Shizuoka.departmental bulletin pape
Calculation of Elementary Transcendental Function by Arithmetic-Geometric Mean
Get PDFapplication/pdfIn 1976, Brent showed that the elementary transcendental functions (exp, log, atan, sin, cosh, etc) can be calculated in O(n(log n)2 log log n) operations with relative error O(2-n) as n → ∞. This algorithms depends on the theory of elliptic integrals, using the arithmetic-geometric mean method. It's learned that this method is effective when calculating by the high precision, but It isn't known in what kind of area this way is effective. In this paper, Elementary transcendental function was calculated and its validity was checked using algorithm of this Brent.departmental bulletin pape
Relevance of multidimensional empathy and experience in nurse
Get PDFapplication/pdfThis study examined the association that the multidimensional sympathy, years of experience of the nurse, self-monitoring for 19 nurses. The question paper used multidimensional sympathy measurement standard, self-monitoring standard, the nurse version vs. patient Under-Involvement standard and the nurse version vs. patient Over-Involvement standard. I classified pitch group, self-monitoring standards in the pitch group in a nursing career, and the analysis method performed t-test. As a result of analysis, I imagine the high group with the viewpoint acquisition (t=2.76, df=17, p.05 ) of the multidimensional sympathy measurement standard than a low group in a nursing career (t=1.99, df=17, †.10) Significant difference was shown in extroversion (t=2.77, df=17, p.05) of the self-monitoring standard. Whenever it repeated experience, the nurse enhanced the viewpoint acquisition and imagination of the sympathy, and it was confirmed to be provided with calmness and the correspondence ability of the adaptability that I accepted with experience to associate with a great variety of patients individually. However, the nurse becoming easy to come under an influence from a patient if multidimensional sympathy is high and the relationship with the patient may deepen excessively. Therefore the nurse raised multidimensional sympathy with experience, and it was guessed that ability for self-monitoring to be able to regard feelings and the situation for the patient as objectivity was important. Because this study had little number of the target people, as for the big difference, it was not admitted by the pitch group of a nursing career, hyperspace sympathy measurement standard score, the self-monitoring standard score. I increase the number of the target people and want to repeat examination in greater detail.departmental bulletin pape
