Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel composition for use in suppressing fat accumulation, a novel composition for use in suppressing body weight gain, and a composition for use in promoting the production of a ketone body. According to the present invention, there is provided a composition for use in suppressing fat accumulation, suppressing body weight gain and/or promoting the production of a ketone body, comprising, as an active ingredient, a medium chain fatty acid glyceride comprising a saturated fatty acid having 8 carbon atoms as a constituent fatty acid. The ratio of the amount of the saturated fatty acid having 8 carbon atoms to the total amount of medium chain fatty acids of the medium chain fatty acid glyceride can be set to 0.6 or more. The medium chain fatty acid glyceride may further comprise, as a constituent fatty acid, a saturated fatty acid having 10 carbon atoms and/or a saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms. The medium chain fatty acid glyceride is preferably a medium chain fatty acid triglyceride.

Abstract: A liquid jet discharge device including an ejection section, a pressure generation section, and an impulse force impartation means. The ejection section is open at both end portions and internally houses a liquid such that a contact angle between the liquid and at least an inner face of the ejection section is less than 90°. The pressure generation section is in communication with one end portion of the ejection section, has a cross-sectional area larger than a cross-sectional area of the ejection section, has a length in a discharge direction of a liquid jet that is longer than a length in the discharge direction from the one end portion of the ejection section to a surface of the liquid, and houses the liquid at least at a bottom face side onto which the one end portion opens. The impulse force impartation means is configured to impart an impulse force to the pressure generation section.

Abstract: A sheet-type metamaterial includes: a film-shaped dielectric substrate; a first and second wire array formed on the dielectric substrate's front surface and back surface respectively. The first wire array includes elongated metallic first cut wires of a length aligned in a y-axis direction with a gap g therebetween and in an x-axis direction with space s therebetween. The second wire array includes second cut wires having the same shape as first cut wires and aligned so as to overlap first cut wires and to be symmetric with the first cut wires. With a design frequency set at 0.51 THz, the dielectric substrate's thickness d is set at about 50 μm, space s is set at about 361 μm, gap g is set at about 106 μm, and the length of first and second cut wires is set at a length approximate to a value to generate resonance at a working frequency.

Abstract: A driving assistance control apparatus of a vehicle includes a blind area detector, a driving operation detector, and an electronic control unit. The blind area detector is configured to detect the presence or absence of a blind area as seen from the vehicle in a traveling direction of the vehicle. The driving operation detector is configured to detect driving operation of the driver. The electronic control unit is configured to perform automatic deceleration control of the vehicle based on detection of the presence of the blind area by the blind area detector. The electronic control unit is configured to start the automatic deceleration control, by referring to the driving operation of the driver after detection of the presence of the blind area by the blind area detector.
