Both the Kansai and Kanto regions are defined as suffering from water stress, with supplies needing to be pumped in, which in Kansai's case means almost exclusively from the massive Lake Biwa, just east of Kyoto. This technique proved to be efficient and was beneficially employed to obtain highly accurate solutions for Brinell indentation and also for strain-hardening plastic solids by Biwa and Storakers (19). As the story goes, the boy is permitted to stay in the monastery because he is gifted at the biwa, a Japanese stringed instrument similar to a lute. |
