    摘要: It is determined whether fuel efficiency of a vehicle is improved by operating a first rotating machine to generate electricity to such an extent that an electrical path amount becomes a desired electrical path amount for controlling an operating point of an engine to a desired operating point and driving and operating a second rotating machine as a second power source, the electrical path amount being a magnitude of electric power in an electrical path through which the electric power is transferred between the first rotating machine and the second rotating machine. When the electronic control device determines that the fuel efficiency of the vehicle is improved, the first rotating machine is operated to generate electricity to such an extent that the electrical path amount becomes the desired electrical path amount and the second rotating machine is driven and operated as the second power source.

    摘要: An MRI apparatus includes a scanner configured to apply an RF pulse to an object and processing circuity configured to: set a first pulse sequence in which acquisition of a first set of MR signals is started after a first delay time from application of a first excitation pulse, and a second pulse sequence in which acquisition of a second set of MR signals is started after a second delay time from application of a second excitation pulse, the second delay time being different from the first delay time; acquire first and second sets of MR signals by causing the scanner to apply the first and second pulse sequences to the object; generate a combined dataset by averaging a first dataset based on the first set of MR signals and a second dataset based on the second set of MR signals; and reconstruct an MR image based on the combined dataset.
