Abstract
In holonomical considerations what should we draw out lessons from the Great East Japan Earthquake? In this paper, I discuss two critical points, one is for layman, other for mechanical engineers. Japanese people had believed that a specialist may rescue themselves from disasters always in time. In a wide disaster, however, a person in the first place, tries to work out one’s salvation by one’s own efforts. But many people failed to adapt themselves to the critical circumstances. Usually, experts and professionals are easily apt to part separately as a specialist, severely and not seriously from the whole. Best in the parts can’t be so also in the whole. How should we conquer such a narrow prejudice as a specialist? That’s our holonomist’s fundamental subject !
