Abstract:
The present invention provides an editing apparatus, an editing method, and a program by which a user can freely and easily apply an effect while visually confirming a motion-image to be edited. The editing apparatus includes a playback/display unit that plays back and displays a motion-image, a position designation unit that designates the positions on the motion-image played back and displayed by the playback/display unit, a coordinate conversion unit that converts the positions designated by the position designation unit into virtual coordinates on the motion image, a storage unit that stores the virtual coordinates obtained by the coordinate conversion unit in association with frames of the motion-image, and an effect application unit that applies an effect to the motion-image based on the virtual coordinates stored in the storage unit.

Abstract:
A front floor panel has at a lateral end thereof a first flange for joining with a body side assembly. A floor panel has a second flange for joining with the body side assembly of a modular vehicle body. The first and seond flanges are formed with first and second recesses, respectively. A patch plate is fitted in the first and second recesses to form a smooth continuous joining surface which is joined with the corresponding flange of the body side assembly by interposing therebetween sealant adhesive. The rear floor panel is nearly rectangular and has a continuous upstanding flange extending upwardly from the laterally opposed ends and the rear end thereof for joining with the body side assembly and another body side assembly and a rear end assemby of the modular vehicle body.
Abstract:
A working mechanism for moving a treatment table including an expandable and contractable pneumatic spring coupled to the table, a pneumatic control pressure circuit for controlling the expansion and contraction of the pneumatic spring and a hydraulic checker coupled to the treatment table whereby the treatment table is smoothly moved and maintained at any heighth.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a knockout animal artificially modified to inhibit α-TTP gene expression. This animal is useful as a tool for understanding mechanisms for the development of familial isolated vitamin E deficiency and other diseases induced by oxidative stress (e.g., arteriosclerosis, diabetes). It is also useful as a tool for developing a therapeutic agent for these diseases.
Abstract:
The invented polymerizable alicyclic esters are shown by the following formula (1) or (2): wherein each of ring A, ring B, ring C, ring D, and ring E is a non-aromatic carbon ring, R is a polymerizable unsaturated group, and each of Ra1, Rb1, and Rc1 is, identical to or different from one another, a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group which may be protected by a protective group, or an RCO2 group, where R has the same meaning as defined above. Each of the ring A, ring B, ring C, ring D, and ring E is, for example, a cyclopentane ring, a cyclohexane ring, or a bridged ring. R includes, for example, a vinyl group, an isopropenyl group, or an aryl group.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for separating optical isomers, which enables the optical resolution of compounds which could not sufficiently be resolved optically by the reversed-phase chromatographic methods of the prior art. The present invention further provides a method for separating optical isomers by liquid chromatography with a separating agent comprising a polysaccharide derivative as the active component, which comprises conducting the chromatographic separation under the reversed-phase conditions by using a basic mobile phase.
Abstract:
A structure configuration map display system includes a controller for depicting and displaying a structure configuration map based on structure configuration map information. The system provides for searching and guidance relative to a structure designated as a target point. A display form corresponding to the structure information for the target point is determined and the display form of the target point is changed based on the results of that determination and is displayed so that a user can easily recognize the desired facility by its display form which corresponds to stored structure information. Also, the user can easily identify a facility as the desired facility and can obtain reliable guidance to that target point by the display form which indicates the type of the structure.
