  • Bridge Architecture in Japan

F. M. Zain2 and Maslina Jamil1 1Department of Architecture, Faculty of Engineering, National University of Malaysia (UKM), Malaysia. 2Deputy Dean, Faculty of Engineering, National University of Malaysia (UKM), Malaysia. Accepted 27 June, 2011 A bridge is a structure built to span physical obstacle such as a body of water, city, or road, for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle. Bridges are a unique offshoot of architecture and possess their own associated terms, components and styles. This paper presents the second part of Japanese bridges by investigating architectural aspects of its design. Limited usable land in heavily populated areas of Japan has often necessitated the design of unique bridge approaches. One of such design is the spiral viaduct bridge approach. When this design is used, care is taken to make the structures aesthetically appealing. An important reason for the bridge construction will lead into a critical study of bridge aesthetics and structural design. According to the configuration of frameworks, bridges may be described as arched, girdered and cable stayed or suspension. Refereeing to Japanese bridges, those most frequently provided cable stayed in the construction of bridges are important factor in architecture and bridges aesthetic. This paper presents a brief history of bridge design in Japan, and then discusses the influence of technical factors on Japan bridges design.

A rare freshwater goby Odontobutis hikimius Iwata & Sakai, 2002 was collected from the Nishiki River flowing into the Seta Inland Sea. The species was described based on specimens from three rivers flow- ing into the Sea of Japan, the Takatsu, Tama, and Masuda Rivers, as an endemically distributed new species. The Nishiki River flows the southern slope of the drainage divide opposite to the Takatsu River. It is thought that the Fukatani River that was a tributary of the Takatsu River has become a tributary of the Nishiki River due to a stream capture event. Following this event Odontobutis hikimius possibly immigrated to the Nishiki River system from the Takatsu River system. Key words: freshwater goby, Odontobutis hikimius, new locality, stream capture, immigration, morphology Introduction Specimens collected from the Nishiki River are identified with O. hikimius morphologically (Fig. 1). An endemic rare freshwater goby Odontobutis The Nishiki River flows on the opposite slope of the hikimius Iwata & Sakai, 2002 was described as a drainage divide to the Takatsu River and goes into the new species based on specimens collected from three Seto Inland Sea (Fig.

A school excursion program and Furusato (Home place) festival at Yamashiro District can be examples of tourism activities in this rural area. These events are currently run by the "Hot Nishiki" nonprofit Organization, the local community and lo- cal government. The emphasis of this paper is placed on how the "Hot Nishiki" got involved in the rural tourism in an effort to help local life and revitalization at Yamashiro District. The research concludes that challenges to mitigate the problems of an aging society and depopulation are being made through rural tourism. The paper clarifies the importance of local community support to the development of rural tourism as an approach to make the local community active and contribute to rural revitalization. Keywords: NPO "Hot Nishiki". local community, revitalization. rural tourism Introduction The population decline puts rural areas in a difficult situation. Recent years have seen moves to supplement community functions in small scale communities with many elderly people. To regenerate rural areas, it is important to promote initiatives to develop agriculture into a "sixth industry" that can help revitalize rural areas, and thereby improve income levels and increase employment opportunities (MAFF, 2009). The previous research on contemporary problem in Japan's rural and opportunities in developing rural tourism has been undertaken. research focused on the same area, Yamashiro District. This previous research examined the problems faced at Yamashiro District related to the decline of population and the potential of rural tourism as an alternative to solve the problems facing.

  • Geological Boundary Faults and Late Exhumation Process of the Permian-Jurassic Subduction Complexes in Eastern Yamaguch I Prefecture, Southwest Japan
    Journal of Geosciences, Osaka City University Vol. 40, Art. 6, p.97-117, March, 1997 Geological boundary faults and late exhumation process of the Permian-Jurassic subduction complexes in eastern Yamaguch i Prefecture, Southwest Japan Michio TAKAMI* Department of Geosciences, Faculty of Science, Osaka City University Sugimoto 3-3-138, Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka 558, Japan Abstract Permian accretionary complex, Triassic high-PIT Suo metamorphic complex and Jurassic accretionary complex are widely distributed from north to south, forming a pile-nappe structure in eastern Yamaguchi Prefecture, Southwest Japan. The Suo metamorphic complex is separated from the overlying Permian accretionary complex by the Nishikigawa and Kitayama faults, and is also separated from the underlying Jurassic accretionary complex by the Notanigawa fault. On the basis of mineral assemblages in basic metamorphic rocks and of graphitization of carbonaceous material from pelitic metamorphic rocks, these three complexes are divided into the following mineral zones: Jurassic and Permian accretionary complexes - pumpellyite-chlorite (P-C) zone; Suo metamorphic complex- pumpellyite-actinolite (P-A) and epidote-glaucophane (E-G) zones. P-A zone is separated into the northern side (P-A zone 1) and southern side (P-A zone II) of E-G zone. The basic internal structure of the three complexes is a metamorphic zonal structure consisting of P-C, P-A II, E-G, P-A I and P-C zones, in as­ cending order. The Nishikigawa and Notanigawa faults are parallel or subparallel to these zones, but the Kitayama fault is clearly oblique to them. The do 0 2 values of carbonaceous material from pelitic metamorphic rocks were measured systematically across all the mineral zones.
