Meeting The Challenge Of The Northern Seas, We Are Working Today To Make Possible The Ports Of Tommorow The moody northern seas: Sparkling in summer, a flaming celebration under crepuscular skies, then lashed by the winds of winter, roiled by the incessant waves, dark under the neverending snow, silent under the drift ice stretching to the horizon - the merciless northern seas. The Cold Region Port and Harbor Engineering Research Center is meeting the challenge of the northern seas. Mobilment, the Center is pursuing and coordinating research that will bring victory over the cruel forces threatening northern ports and lead to the realization of a comfortable living and working environment for their inhabitants. The technology born from these efforts will ensure a brilliant future, not only for those livilng in cold regions, but those benefiting from the resources and the creativity as yet untapped in the world's great northern frontier. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cutting-Edge Technology And An Ample Store Of Information Keys To A Comfortable Northern Lifestyle CONSTANT RESEARCH BRINGS CONSTANT IMPROVEMENT OF PORT FACILITIES AND TECHNOLOGY (1) Main surveys and research Topics: Engineering Materials Appropriate uses in cold regions of existing materials, development of new materials Technology for Winter Conditions Improvement of existing technology and searches for new operating technologies Applied Technology Application of results of domestic and foreign basic research concerning cold regions to port technology Design for Scenic Beauty Artistic design of cold region ports and harbors Port Facilities Maintenance Arrangement of facilities for optimal use Applications of technology for cold ports to facilities maintenance Wave Forecasting Forecasting of waves which could affect harbor construction or maintenance Resistance to Ice Design of port facilities and offshore structures for resistance to drift ice Mechanisms of freezing in ports and countermeasures (2) System of Surveys and Research (3) Results of our Surveys and Research We have formed many strong project teams composed of members from industry, academia and governmental organizations according to the nature of the research to be performed. We are proud of the quality of our staff and their unfailing successes! REPORTS TO GOVERNMENTAL AND PUBLIC OFFICES We are regularly consulted for the opinions of our experienced staff by governmental agencies concerned with the design, construction and maintenance of ports for northern regions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- International Coordination Boosts A Synergistic Leap Forward: Active Exchanges On Development With Other Countries Of The Northern Regions WE ARE PROMOTING EXCHANGES ON DEVELOPMENT WITH MANY COUNTRIES OF THE NORTHERN REGIONS We at the Cold Region Port and Harbor Engineering Research Center are promoting many exchanges on development. with regions of similar climates, including countries of North America and Scandinavia. Sponsoring Overseas Tours Of Inspection We plan and participate in tours of inspection for our members to promote exchanges on development with other countries of the northern regions. SPONSORING WIDE-RANGING EVENTS FOR EXCHANGES OF INFORMATION We sponsor all manner of lectures, technical training courses and symposia to accelerate the propagation of the most significant findings and ideas for living and working in cold regions. Lectures And Training Courses We invite the most productive researchers and writers in many different related fields as lecturers and coordinators for our activities. SYMPOSIA We set themes to current concerns, and invite researchers and writers to participate in symposia. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Looking To A Sparkling Future Built On The Best Of Technology MEMBERSHIP IN CENTER The Cold Region Port and Harbor Engineering Research Center has two systems of membership, individual membership and corporate membership. Our corporate members currently member 222 companies, and our individuals 544. We offer numerous benefits to membership, and welcome all qualified applicants. KEEPING OUR MEMBERS POSTED ON ALL ACTIVITIES We send two periodicals to all our members, the newsletter 'Minato no Tayori' (News from the Harbor), and a magazine 'Umi to Minato' (Sea and Harbor), providing news on Center activities and the latest developments in harbor technology. OUR LIBRARY OPEN FOR USE Our fully-equipped library, which is freely available for the use of our members, has a total of 8,000 volumes. Materials cover surveys and reports on harbor construction technology, and include the plans and specifications of all the harbor structures in Japan. There is also an easy-to-use index, which aids in quickly locating the desired information.
