Abstract:
The renal renin-angiotensin system plays a central role in the development of hypertension. The aim of this work was to verify the expression of angiotensin II receptors AT1R and AT2R in the microsomal fraction of renal cortex and correlate this with the development of hypertension and renal damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) using Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) as controls. AT1R expression increased (126%) and AT2R expression decreased (66%) in 4-wk-old SHR; AT2 expression decreased in 14-wk-old SHR (61%) compared with respective age-matched WKY. These modifications were correlated to the increase in protein kinase C activity and decrease in protein kinase A activity. Four-week-old SHR showed large accumulations of macrophages in kidney glomerulus and the tubulointerstitial area, dense cortical collagen deposition, and arterial proliferative changes in the walls of arterioles and medium-sized vessels. Similar modifications were also observed in 14-wk-old SHR. Four-week-old SHR treated with losartan (30 mg·kg−1·day−1) or hydralazine (15 and 30 mg·kg−1·day−1) by gavage for 10 wk did not develop hypertension. The decrease in AT2R expression and renal damage observed in SHR remained even after treatment with hydralazine. On the other hand, losartan treatment prevented the modifications observed in 14-wk-old SHR, indicating that renal injuries are caused specifically by AT1 rather than an increase in blood pressure. Our results indicate that the imbalance in AT1R and AT2R expression is associated with an inflammatory process that contributes to renal injury in adult SHR and to the development of hypertension.

Abstract:
The numbers of monocytes and macrophages in the walls of cerebral blood vessels were counted on perfusion-fixed frozen brain sections (16 μm) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), stroke-prone SHR (SHR-SP), normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, and young (16-week-old) and old (2-year-old) normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats (SD-16w and SD-2y, respectively) using monoclonal antibodies against rat macrophages (ED2). The staining was visualized with fluorescein-labeled second antibodies. The ED2-specific staining in brain sections was restricted to macrophages in a perivascular location. The number of perivascular cells per square millimeter of high-power field was significantly greater in SHR-SP (8.6 ± 2.1; n = 4) and SHR (6.7 ± 0.9; n = 6) than in normotensive WKY (4.0 ± 0.5; n = 6; p < 0.01). The number of perivascular macrophages was also greater in SD-2y (7.5 ± 2.7; n = 9) than in SD-16w (2.9 ± 1.8; n = 8; p < 0.01). No ED2 staining was found in the resident microglia or in the endothelial cells, which were identified by double staining with rhodamine-labeled anti-factor VIII-related antigen antibodies. The results suggest that the stroke risk factors hypertension and advanced age are associated with increased subendothelial accumulation of monocytes and macrophages. This accumulation could increase the tendency for the endothelium to convert from an anticoagulant to a procoagulant surface in response to mediators released from these subendothelial cells.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Ground damage, such as liquefaction events, occurred in the Kanto region during the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011. Similar disasters can be expected to occur in the future. Disaster prevention and preparedness plans have been developed by municipal governments based on the principle of Jijo (self-aid), Kyojo (community assistance), and Kojo (government assistance). With national land information, including the latest satellite images and Jinsokusokuzu (QuickMap) prepared during the Meiji period, being compiled, consolidated and analysed, it is now expected that such national land information can be utilized in the field of disaster mitigation.</p><p>According to an old map, the old Kugenuma Lake used to be spread in the southeast of the city of Fujisawa, which is currently located in the dune lands in the Shonan region. This area is composed of sandbanks formed by the Hikichi River and the Sakai River. From the synthetic images based on satellite images and QuickMap, among other things, it is expected that a disaster may cause serious damage in areas of weak ground conditions along the old river ways and the brinks (cliffs) of the old Kugenuma Lake as they have been rapidly converted into residential areas (Figure 1). The evacuation map prepared based on this assumption indicates that nearby tsunami evacuation buildings should serve as an emergency evacuation centre for evacuees (Figure 2). In the vicinity of these emergency evacuation centres, however, there are various areas that may become impassable for evacuees and emergency vehicles due to the potential collapse of stone walls and utility poles, among other things.</p><p>From the synthetic images based on geospatial information, it is possible to identify areas prone to liquefaction in regions whose past land cover is related to water (Figure 1). The evacuation map, which has been prepared based on the reading of hazard maps and the results of our field investigation, has exposed a number of issues facing disaster-predicted areas (Figure 2). As a result, it is recommended that 1) a community association ensure to always keep evacuation routes operable and clear of any obstructions that may impede evacuation and 2) to conduct an emergency evacuation drill in different seasons and time zones. It is also essential to ensure that a community will develop its own technical capability and autonomous community-based capability to provide relief to its own community members through Kyojo.</p>

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background Several studies have suggested mechanisms whereby excessive fructose intake increases blood pressure (BP). Glucose transporter 5 (GLUT5) is a fructose transporter expressed on enterocytes, and its involvement in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS)–modulated increase in BP following fructose intake remains unclear. Objectives Herein, we investigated whether NTS Glut5 knockdown (KD) can alleviate fructose-induced hypertension in rat models. Methods Male Wistar-Kyoto rats (6–8 weeks old; average weight: 230 g) were randomly assigned into 4 groups [control (Con), fructose (Fru), fructose + scrambled (Fru + S), and Fru + KD]. The Con group rats had ad libitum access to regular water, and the other 3 groups were provided 10% fructose water ad libitum for 4 weeks (2 weeks before lentiviral transfection in the Fru + S and Fru + KD groups). Glut5 short hairpin RNA was delivered into the NTS of rats using a lentivirus system. Fructose-induced hypertension was assessed via the tail-cuff technique, a noninvasive blood pressure measurement approach. GLUT5-associated and other insulin signaling pathways in the NTS of rats were assessed using immunofluorescence and immunoblotting analyses. We evaluated between-group differences using the Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis 1-way ANOVA. Results Compared with the Fru + S group, the Fru + KD group had reduced sympathetic nerve hyperactivity (48.8 ± 3.2 bursts/min; P &lt; 0.05), improved central insulin signaling, upregulated protein kinase B (AKT; 3.0-fold) and neuronal NO synthase (nNOS; 2.78-fold) expression, and lowered BP (17 ± 1 mmHg, P &lt; 0.05). Moreover, Glut5 KD restored signaling dependent on adenosine 5′-monophosphate–activated protein kinase and reduced fructose-induced oxidative stress 2.0-fold, and thus decreased NAD(P)H oxidase in p67-phox 1.9-fold within the NTS. Conclusions Fructose-induced reactive oxygen species generates in the NTS of rats through GLUT5 and receptor for advanced glycation end products signaling, thus impairing the AKT–nNOS–NO signaling pathway and ultimately causing hypertension.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> This study intends to develop a method of learning changes in the Kyoto townscape. We conducted an experiment using the Kyoto Memorygraph with old photographs from the Kyoto City Tram and Bus Photograph Database. The key findings of this paper are the following: <ul><li>Users can easily understand the details of changes in the townscape when comparing old photographs with the current townscape using Kyoto Memorygraph.</li> <li>By using this application in tours, users who were not previously familiar with the locations and characteristics of old photographs exhibited notable learning outcomes.</li> </ul> In this experiment, participants focused on mountains as a distant marker and buildings, roads, and objects on the roadside as proximate markers. These are the basic components of the city; participants examined the structure and elements from the old photos and became aware of changes in the townscape. In the case that the characteristics of the photo had changed significantly, some participants felt it was difficult to match old photos with the current townscape. By visiting the location where the old picture was taken and capturing the current cityscape, users of Kyoto Memorygraph were able to consider the city’s structure and elements. These results indicate that Kyoto Memorygraph can be a regional learning tool for understanding townscape development.</p>

Full text
Abstract:
The work presented in this thesis comprises the assessment of existing arch bridges with overlying backfill. The main objective is to estimate the load carrying capacity in ultimate limit state analysis. A case study of the old Årsta railway bridge is presented, serving as both the initiation and a direct application of the present research. The demand from the bridge owner is to extend the service life of the bridge by 50 years and increase the allowable axle load from 22.5 to 25 metric tonnes. The performed analyses show a great scatter in estimated load carrying capacity, depending on a large number of parameters. One of the factors of main impact is the backfill material, which may result a significant increase in load carrying capacity due to the interaction with the arch barrel. Based on theoretical analyses, extensive conditional assessments and the demand from the bridge owner, it was decided that the bridge needed to be strengthened. The author, in close collaboration with both the bridge owner and the persons performing the conditional assessment, performed the development of a suitable strengthening. The analyses showed a pronounced three-dimensional behaviour, calling for a design using non-linear finite element methods. Due to demands on full operability during strengthening, a scheme was developed to attenuate any decrease in load carrying capacity. The strengthening was accepted by the bridge owner and is currently under construction. It is planned to be finalised in 2012. The application of field measurements to determine the structural manner of action under serviceability loads are presented and have shown to be successful. Measured strain of the arch barrel due to passing train has been performed, both before, during and after strengthening. The results serve as input for model calibration and verification of the developed strengthening methods. The interaction of the backfill was not readily verified on the studied bridge and the strengthening was based on the assumption that both the backfill and the spandrel walls contributed as dead weight only. The finite element models are benchmarked using available experimental results in the literature, comprising masonry arch bridges with backfill loaded until failure. Good agreement is generally found if accounting for full interaction with the backfill. Similarly, accounting for the backfill as dead weight only, often results in a decrease in load carrying capacity by a factor 2 to 3. Still, several factors show a high impact on the estimated load carrying capacity, of which many are difficult to accurately assess. This suggests a conservative approach, although partial interaction of the backfill may still increase the load carrying capacity significantly.
Arbetet i föreliggande avhandling omfattar analyser av befintliga bågbroar med ovanliggande fyllning. Huvudsyftet är att uppskatta bärförmågan i brottgränstillstånd. En fallstudie av gamla Årstabron redovisas, vilken utgör både initieringen och en direkt tillämpning av föreliggande forskning. Kravet från broförvaltaren är att öka brons livslängd med 50 år, samtidigt som axellasten ska ökas från nuvarande 22.5 ton till 25 ton. Utförda analyser visar på stor spridning i uppskattad bärförmåga, beroende på ett stort antal parametrar. En av de främsta faktorerna är fyllningens egenskaper, vilken kan resultera i en markant ökning av bärförmågan p.g.a. samverkan med bågen. Baserat på teoretiska analyser, tillståndsbedömningar och krav från broförvaltaren beslutades att bron skulle förstärkas. En förstärkningsmetod har utvecklats i nära samarbete med broförvaltaren och personer som tidigare utfört tillståndsbedömningarna. Analyserna visar ett utpräglat tredimensionellt beteende, vilket har föranlett användandet av icke-linjära finita elementmetoder. Krav på full trafik under samtliga förstärkningsarbeten har resulterat i att dessa utförs enligt en föreskriven ordning, som ska reducera minskning i bär­förmåga under samtliga etapper. Förstärkningsförslaget godkändes av Banverket och är för närvarande under byggnation. Enligt plan ska dessa slutföras under 2012. Fältmätningar har använts för att bestämma det statiska verkningssättet under brukslaster, vilket visas ge goda resultat. Resulterande töjningar från passerande tåg har uppmäts i bågen, både före, under och efter förstärkning. Resultaten har använts både för att kalibrera beräkningsmodeller och att verifiera utförda förstärkningar. Samverkan mellan båge och fyllning har inte kunnat verifierats för den aktuella bron och de utvecklade förstärkningarna baseras på en modell där både fyllning och sidomurar endast utgör yttre verkande last. De framtagna finita element modellerna har jämförts med experimentella resultat från litteraturen, omfattande tegelvalvsbroar med ovan­liggande fyllning belastade till brott. Generellt erhålls god överensstämmelse om full samverkan mellan båge och fyllning antas. Om fyllningen istället endast betraktas som yttre last, minskar lastkapaciteten ofta med en faktor 2 till 3. Fortfarande uppvisar ett antal faktorer stor inverkan på bärförmågan, vilka ofta är svåra att med säkerhet bestämma. Ett konservativt betraktningssätt rekommenderas, även om delvis sam­verkan med fyllningen fortfarande kan öka bärförmågan avsevärt.

Abstract:
Men continue to outnumber women in public school superintendent roles by a 4:1 ratio. However, women outnumber men by a 4:1 ratio in teaching roles in public school districts. In addition, more women than men hold superintendent certificates and educational doctorates. Due to this puzzling discrepancy, it is important to understand possible factors in the form of gendered barriers to access that could lead to the unequal representation of women in superintendent positions. In this study, I examined how these barriers manifested in the experiences of female superintendents participating in the study, how they influenced the hiring experiences of these participants, and how they impacted these female leaders throughout their careers. With this study, I investigated barriers associated with holding mechanisms, gendered norms, and gendered filters that may limit women's access to superintendent roles. Women's experiences of the origins and effects of gender normative perceptions and hiring practices have potential for contributing to the study of gender equity in the field of education and beyond. Findings could provide implications for increasing women's opportunities to serve beyond central office positions in public school districts. Possibilities exist for identifying practices in organizations that have hired women to serve at the highest level of school district leadership; that of the superintendent of schools.

Abstract This research arises from the some twenty-six(26) incidents in which ceramic tiles fell off the outer walls of older buildings during the onstaught of the cold front during Chinese Lunar New Year in February and March of 2014, causing injuries to persons. This research has led to the discovery that there are are no relevant regulations governing the maintenance or use of the building outer walls. Although the central governmen , and the business, munidpal, and academic sectors have discussed the implementation of regulations, any such implementation is not no pace with the deterioration of these older structures or the need to preserve public safety. This search details the impact of the outer walls of aged buildings on public safety through an overview of current construction methods, case studies, and expert interviews, etc Currently, the government only inspect the adhesiveness of the ceramic tiles and general outward look of the buildings(urban planning inspection). However, the use of the outer walls, their management, inspection, and reporting standards are lacking, causing property owners to lack the proper understanding concerning their rights and responsibilities concerning the use of the outer walls. Thus, the purpose of this research is to assist property owners understand their rights and responsibilities when issues arise concerning the outer walls. This research has utillzed a case study to assess the differences in the conditions of the outer walls before and after renovation, in order to increase property owners willingness to cooperate with government Policies, to make proper repairs to ensure public safety. At the present time, there are no professional inspection associations that inspect these outer walls. Although the City of Taipei has sought assistance from the academic field to conducttraining for inspection personnel, the central government has expressed differences over the training criteria This together with the fact that the duration of training is short, reguires further assessment of the credibility of this type of training. As such, it is recommendedto the central and iocal government that the over all planning on subject matter be done on a short, mid, and longterm basis, in order to ensure public safety. Keywords: Older structures, public safety concerning structures, maintenance of outer walks, outdoor renovation.

According to the survey, Japan has the largest old companies in the world, especially in Kyoto. When it comes to Kyoto, we will think of the famous Uji tea. Therefore, this thesis might be deconstructed into two part. The first part is research about Japan old companies, the other apart is case studies of Uji tea old companies in Kyoto. In the prior study, we can have preliminary concept about old companies from studying the history and type. Then, base on the questionnaire for the one-hundred-year old companies research made by Teikoku Databank in 2008 which is including mottos, ideas, advantages and disadvantages to arrange old companies management features. Next, we can understand the process of Kyoto images by analyzing Kyoto-band charms.I also focus on studying the history of Uji tea and to find the problem that the tea industry have to face. Finally, this thesis includes two case studies. One is Marukyu Koyamaen, which has been doing business over 300 years. The other one is Nakamura Hujiyoshi, also has 150 years history. Both of them are the famous Uji tea store that appeal many traveler to visit. Their unique marketing strategies are points to be success. Japan old companies overcome business crises experience can help young companies to continue their businesses. On the other hand, old companies have to face some problem such as globalization and koureishoushika phenomena. Sustainable development is an important issue for old companies. I will be honored if this thesis can offer some successful management and marketing points to young companies.

A more comprehensive way of preserving and regenerating history is to first preserve the architecture and geography of a historic area, and then encourage the public’s participation in the process of regenerating and revitalizing the historical area. The historic area within the Tainan old city walls is a large area with diverse culture and time-honored traditions. Its unique historical environment and diverse living styles have to be integrated into the process of regeneration and revitalization of its culture and environment. Local organizations and neighboring schools have been participating in the regeneration process and have become part of the operating pattern ever since 2002. The regeneration project of the Tainan old city historic area was carried out from 2002 to 2005 to preserve and regenerate human and cultural resources. Later in 2006, infrastructure improvement projects were also started. Local organizations, schools, and residents got involved in the discussion of regeneration under the guidance of experts and scholars. The participatory planning paradigm was then realized through the integration and regeneration of historical, infrastructural, cultural, and human resources. This research looks at how the neighboring schools are instilling historical essence into citizens’ lives through teaching and using a variety of medium. Neighboring schools have not only created a bond, a group identity, but also a new dynamics among the residents, participants, and the historic area within the old Tainan city walls. Through gathering information from previous projects, participating in community activities, and analyzing relevant data on local organizations, this research probes into how these local organizations preserve, regenerate, and develop regional cultural activities in terms of both architectural and human resources. Research results show that: 1) The key to sustainable regeneration of the historic area is to raise school administrators’ awareness of history. Through participation and interaction, they learn the historic value of the old city walls area and thus show their support to the environment and its cultural heritage. 2) Neighboring schools’ participation should be at the center of regional platform operation. Schools can place great emphasis and have the ability to enforce cultural education and therefore could be an asset to local operation. 3) Organizing activities in the historic area regularly could prompt the local residents to plan and execute their own activities. It helps to form collective memories and experiences for the residents and transform their participatory behavior from passively learn and acknowledge facts to actively express their thoughts and opinions. 4) Operation of regional platform is still led by projects. Long term planning has yet to be implemented. Projects can help the operation of the platform but also limit it. Local features and culture still need to be developed and preserved in the future.

Abstract:
In our study we determine the influence of wall roughness on friction for pipe and channel flows by numerically calculating the entropy production in the flow. It turns out, that there is an appreciable influence of wall roughness in laminar flows though this effect often is neglected completely. In addition to the friction factor results we gain an understanding of the physics since we have access to the dissipation distribution in the flow field close to the roughness elements. For a concise description of flows over rough walls there should be a reasonable choice of the wall location as well as the roughness parameter. Various options are discussed and assessed.

Abstract:
Three cross-walls were installed to brace the diaphragm walls prior to excavation for a cross-over tunnel of the Taipei Metro in front of the South Gate of the old Taipei City and has now been a National Heritage. The tunnel had the maximum excavation depth of 20.1 m. Three-dimensional finite element analyses have been performed to evaluate the effectiveness and the influence of the cross-walls in reducing the wall deflections. The nonlinear Hardening-Soil model has been adopted in the analyses. The results of the analyses indicate that the maximum wall deflections are much reduced as a result and the effectiveness of cross-walls is thus proved.

Abstract:
This paper examines the issue of renovation of buildings in the urban fabric of older central cities. It does so with a the case study of one such building. The building under study is a church that was originally constructed in the early 1900's and was in use into the eighties. Since then, building has been abandoned and fallen into disrepair. The building was renovated for use as a cultural arts and performance center for small user groups. It was an unreinforced masonry building with many structural defects that had to be overcome before any use could be made of the structure. The foundations in the basement were badly deteriorating. It had high spaces with tall unreinforced masonry walls and a truss roof that was in distress.

Abstract:
<p>This study investigates the structural vulnerability of an old reinforced concrete dual wall-frame building structure, in Lisbon, Portugal. The building presents non-ductile behaviour and detailing typical of buildings designed before the introduction of modern seismic codes (pre– 1980). An analytical methodology is adopted in which multiple stripe analysis are performed on a three- dimensional model of the building. Fragility and vulnerability functions are developed for this structure, representative of a typology of old RC buildings. The fragility is derived taking into account the brittle shear failures of RC vertical members, i.e. columns and shear walls. The nonlinear dynamic analyses clearly indicate that these failure modes have a critical influence on the seismic performance of the structure. The results of this study can be used for seismic loss assessment and for the identification of appropriate mitigation strategies for this typology of existing RC buildings.</p>

Full text
Abstract:
Old Navarino fortification (Palaiokastro) is located on the promontory supervising the naturally endowed Navarino-bay at the south-western foot of Peloponnese peninsula, near the contemporary city of Pylos. The cliff where it is built and where ancient relics lie, was fortified by Frankish in the thirteenth century. The fortification though knows significant alterations firstly by Serenissima Republic of Venice from the fifteenth century that aims to dominate the naval routes of Eastern Mediterranean by establishing a system of coastal fortifications and later by the Ottomans after the conquest of Venice’s possessions at Messenia in 1500. Between fifteenth and seventeenth century, apart from important modifications at the initial enceinte of the northern Upper City, the most notable transformation of Old Navarino is the construction of the new Lower fortification area at the south and the southern outwork ending up to the coastline. Especially the Lower fortification is a sample of multiple and large-scale successive alterations for the adjustment to technological advances of artillery (fortification walls reinforcement, modification of tower-bastions, early casemates, gate complex enforcements). The current essay focuses on the study of these specific elements of the early artillery period and the examination of Old Navarino’s strategic role at the time of transition before the adaptation of “bastion-front” fortification patterns, such as those experimented in the design of the fortified city of New Navarino, constructed at the opposite side of the Navarino gulf by the Ottomans (1573).

Abstract:
A novel approach to mechanical integrity was utilized for addressing failures in an old set of coke drums. Using a rigorous routine of inspections, assessments, and long-term repairs, drums which had suffered accelerated deterioration, unpredicted cracks, and loss of containment were transformed to a reliable set of vessels. Despite old age and thin walls, due to the success of this strategy and results of a fatigue test program, plans to replace these vessels were canceled and the time between turnarounds is being considered for an increase. In this paper, we describe the approach that was used and compare results from this set of drums to another set at the same facility that was managed differently.

Abstract:
Хорошо сохранившиеся в вечной мерзлоте три жилища древнеберингоморской (ДБК) культуры на древнеэскимосском поселении Пайпельгак (побережье Чукотского моря) исследованы впервые. Они расположены на одном стратиграфическом уровне, который перекрыт жилой двухкамерной постройкой бирниркского времени. Небольшие наземные сооружения прямоугольной в плане формы с вымосткой пола из камня и дерева сходны между собой по конструкции. Стены укреплены вертикальными опорами из плавникового дерева и челюстных костей кита. Жилища имели коридорные выходы, направленные в сторону моря. Легкая кровля жилищ делалась из шкур животных на шатровом деревянном каркасе. На уровне пола помещений обнаружен обильный материал, имеющий четкие датирующие признаки. Это наконечники и детали гарпунного комплекса и другие предметы с орнаментом ДБК-II. У оседлых эскимосов на Чукотке прослеживается единая линия развития сооружений с первой половины первого тысячелетия нашей эры (ДБК, бирнирк) вплоть до первой половины XX в., когда был закрыт поселок Наукан с традиционными жилищами. Three dwellings of the Old Bering Sea culture, well-preserved in the permafrost at the ancient Eskimo settlement of Paipelghak (Chukchi Sea coast), were investigated for the first time. They are situated at the same stratigraphic level which is superimposed by two-chamber house of the Birnirk period. Small structures built on the surface, rectangular in shape with a floor made of stone and wood are similar in design. The walls are reinforced with vertical posts made of fin wood and jaw bones of whales. Dwellings had corridor exits faced toward the sea. Light roofs made from animal skins were fixed on a wooden frame. At the floor level of the dwellings abundant materials were found with clear dating characteristics. These are different tips of the harpoon heads, details of harpoon set and other items with the decor of the Old Bering Sea culture II. The sedentary Eskimos of Chukotka have a single line of development of dwellings from the first half of the first millennium AD (the Old Bering Sea culture, the Birnirk period) until the first half of the XX century, when the village of Naukan with traditional dwellings was closed.
