  • Japan Monthly Highlights Product Manager MONTHLY
    31 August 2015 Asia Pacific/Japan Equity Research Product Marketing Japan Monthly Highlights Product Manager MONTHLY Daisuke Takato 813 4550 9671 [email protected] August 2015 ■ August saw a rout in global equities triggered by concerns over China's economic stability. This came on the back of a prolonged commodities slump, an emerging markets slowdown, and increased currency fluctuations. It is precisely in times of volatility that investment opportunities are created, we highlight stocks that look to have been oversold despite solid fundamentals and that we think investors should hold. Examples include Lion (4912), Shinsei (8303), Nomura Real Estate (3231), Japan Airlines (9201), Fuji Heavy (7270), DaikyoNishikawa (4246), and Murata (6981). ■ The construction sector is poised for long-term growth, owing to the repatriation of Japanese manufacturing capacity amid a weaker yen, the rising need to renovate old buildings, and a slate of large infrastructure projects including the 2020 Summer Olympics. Construction order prices could also rise given the dearth of skilled workers. These factors should lift share prices for construction, cement and steel, writes analyst Masahiro Mochizuki in a Connection Series report with materials analyst Jun Yamaguchi and Shinya Yamada. We upgraded our stances on the construction and cement sectors from Market Weight to OVERWEIGHT and maintained our OVERWEIGHT on the steel sector. We added Shimizu (1803) and Taiheiyo Cement (5233) to the Japan Focus List. ■ Hideyuki Maekawa says semiconductor capacity utilization is at the lowest levels in the post-Lehman era, as additional production cutbacks have been made in August across all applications and process nodes.

  • Low-Activation Reinforced Concrete Design Methodology (9) － Low-Activation Concrete Based on Limestone Aggregates and White Cement－
    Transactions, SMiRT 19, Toronto, August 2007 Paper # HW1/4 Low-Activation Reinforced Concrete Design Methodology (9) － Low-Activation Concrete Based on Limestone Aggregates and White Cement－ Masaharu Kinno1), Norichika Katayose1), Ken-ichi Kimura1), Hirokazu Nishida1), Yusuke Fujikura1), Takao Tanosaki2), Masaki Takimoto2) and Akira Hasegawa3) 1) Technology Development Division, Fujita Corporation, Atsugi, Japan 2) Taiheiyo Cement Corporation, Tokyo, Japan 3) Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan ABSTRACT Manufacturing tests regarding the 1/30-low-activation concrete for a nuclear power plant were performed. Here, “1/30-low-activation” concrete denotes that the activity reduction rate to the ordinary concrete is designed to be 1/30. The detailed data regarding the concentrations of Co and Eu in limestone, white cement, silica fume, and limestone powder were obtained. The low-heat type of 1/30-low-activation concrete was developed by admixing with the low-activation limestone powder, and the low-heat type of 1/50-low-activation concrete was developed by admixing with the low-activation silica fume and/or the low-activation limestone powder. By admixing with the B4C of which concentration is from 1 to 2.5 w%, the total residual radioactivity reduction ratio of the above low-activation concrete to the ordinary concrete, in ΣDi/Ci unit, is estimated to be from 1/100 to 1/1,500. INTRODUCTION Concrete－widely used in a nuclear plant as a neutron shield because of its excellent shielding properties and low cost－includes a large quantity of residual radionuclide induced by neutron irradiation, and this concrete still remains to an enormous degree as radioactive waste after decommissioning.

    Fujita Technical Research Report No.43 2007 Low-Activation Reinforced Concrete Design Methodology -Fundamental Investigation for various Types of Low-Activation Concrete- Ken-ichi Kimura, Masaharu Kinno, Hirokazu Nishida, Noritcika Katayose, Mikihiro Nakata2), Katsumi Hayashi3), Mikio Uematsu4) and Akira Hasegawa1) Abstract Concrete is very useful and inexpensive material. However after long-term use in a nuclear powerplant it can become both expensive and difficult. One possible solution to this problem is the use of low-activation concrete, which has much less residual radioactivity even after many years of operation. In this paper, we evaluated fifty raw materials by radiochemical analyses, which assessed the quantities of dominant trace elements for the activation under specific conditions. From these investigations, three kinds of aggregates (fused alumina ceramics, silica sand and limestone) and two kinds of cements (high alumina cement and white cement) were selected as raw materials for the low–activation concrete. Finally, six types of low-activation concrete and two mortars were proposed and their mix proportions described so as to make them suitable for different areas within nuclear plants. Areas of investigation for further improvements were also identified. §1. Introduction to the decommissioning of nuclear power plants. The Concrete enveloping a nuclear reactor retains key areas of programme include; investigation of residual radioactivity after decommissioning. Disposal residual radionuclides in construction materials of such radioactive concrete is very costly and requires around a reactor, improvement and development of strict supervision. From this point of view, we have low-activation materials, and establishment of developed a new concrete that retains little residual low-activation design method for the reduction of the radioactivity – i.e.
