    Notes: Abstract In the Western Ghats between latitudes 18° 20′ N and 19° 15′ N, 7000 km2 of Deccan Basalt have been mapped with the primary objective of establishing a flow stratigraphy as a guide to the volcanic history of the flood basalts. Using over 70 measured vertical sections, major and trace element analyses of nearly 1200 samples, and rare-earth and87Sr/86Sr determinations for over 60 samples, we divide the basalt into three subgroups and ten formations. In this paper we describe the seven principal formations in the area and the most prominent individual flows. The Kalsubai Subgroup is formed by the lower five formations, the Jawhar, Igatpuri, Neral, Thakurvadi, and Bhimashankar formations, from botton to top. In these formations amygdaloidal compound flows predominate and have a typically high MgO content, including picrite basalt (〉 10% MgO) and picrite (〉 18% MgO) with phenocrysts of olivine and clinopyroxene. These flows are separated by others which contain giant plagioclase phenocrysts and have more evolved chamical compositions. The Lonavala Subgroup overlies the Kalsubai and is composed of two formations, the Khandala and the Bushe. Both are readily recognized in the field and by their chemical compositions. The Wai Subgroup includes the upper three formations, the Poladpur, the Ambenali, and the Mahabaleshwar. The whole subgroup is composed of simple flows with well-developed flow tops, small phenocrysts of plagioclase, pyroxene and olivine, and relatively evolved bulk compositions. Distribution and variation in thickness of the straitigraphic units within the Western Ghats provide a first comprehensive view of the development of the Deccan volcanic edifice. The persistent southerly dip and gentle southerly plunging anticlinal form of the flows, the lensoid shape of many of the formations, and nearly randomly oriented feeder-dike system are together interpreted as evidence of a central volcanic edifice formed as the Indian plate drifted northward over a mantle plume or hot spot.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary We consider a free boundary problem arising from a model for sorption of solvents by glassy polymers. We assume that the problem has planar symmetry, but it is non-homogeneous in the direction of the advancing front. We give an extensive mathematical analysis of the problem, proving existence and stability of the solution and describing some asymptotical behaviours.
    Notes: Sommario Si studia un problema unidimensionale a frontiera libera, che deriva da un modello per l'assorbimento di solventi nei polimeri vetrosi. Si suppone che il problema abbia simmetria piana e che il polimero sia non omogeneo nella direzione di avanzamento del fronte. Si prova l'esistenza e la stabilità della soluzione ed inoltre si descrive il comportamento asintotico.

    Notes: Summary We have studied the acute effect of trimipramine (25, 50 and 75 mg) on nocturnal sleep in 6 young men. Fluoxetine (60 mg) and diazepam (10 mg) were included as controls for the potential changes in sleep measures. Trimipramine reduced awake activity, Stage 1 (drowsy) sleep, and the duration of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Non-REM (Stage 2) sleep was increased. Residual effects of trimipramine were present the next morning (9 h after ingestion) with impaired coding ability. The effects of trimipramine on sleep and daytime alterness are consistent with its complex pharmacological profile. Reduced wakefulness and sedation are most likely due to synergism between histamine H1,a 1-adrenoceptor, and dopamine receptor antagonism. Anticholinergic activity and possibly blockade ofa 1-adrenoceptors would disturb the balance of transmitter activities which facilitates the optimal appearance of REM sleep. In this way the effects of trimipramine on nocturnal wakefulness and REM sleep are similar to drugs which inhibit the uptake of noradrenaline.

    Notes: Abstract Toughness was measured and crack growth resistance curves determined on BS4360:50D steel, over a range of orientations and temperatures from + 20 to − 50° C in terms of both J-integral and crack opening displacement (COD) values, for a number of configurations in static bending. All fractures occurred in a ductile micro-mode. The results are discussed here only in terms of J, but several different methods of estimation are used. These fall into two main groups: for measurement of work done, the results are some 10% higher than those determined from load and clip gauge. Values of J IC found according to the standard ASTM method were some 30% higher than a value for no growth. Maximum load toughness was about twice the JIC value. Over the range studied (0.3 〈 a/W 〈 0.5; W/2 〈 B 〈 W; 20 mm 〈 B 〈 50 mm; Δa/b 〈 0.1 where a is crack length, W and B specimen width and thickness, and b=W−a) both J and COD values depended strongly on orientation, but J by either type of analysis was invariant with respect to temperature and sensitive to geometry only in respect of thickness in one case. Conditions of testing do not therefore seem at all critical in this regime, although the values found depend on the methods of analysis used.

    Notes: Abstract A pleomorphic line of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense expressing a single variable antigen was used to quantify the rate of loss of the surface coat from bloodstream forms transforming to procyclics in the tsetse fly, Glossina morsitans, and in in vitro culture. Loss of variable antigen occurred at similar rates in the crop and anterior portion of the midgut of tsetse flies and in in vitro culture, but in the posterior portion of the fly midgut it occurred 2–3 times faster. The posterior portion of the midgut is the most important site for transformation of bloodstream-form trypanosomes to procyclics, and the dynamics of at least one component of this process are therefore not accurately paralleled in vitro.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé On a étudié les effets de la taille et de la géométrie d'une éprouvette sur la résistance à la croissance d'une fissure ductile dans un acier au C-Mn. Exprimée sous la forme de courbes J-R, la résistance a été mesurée par des valeurs de J calculées par voie conventionnelle (J r) et par la méthode de Ernst modifiée (J m), pour une gamme de géométries d'éprouvettes sollicitées en flexion et en traction. La résistance globale d'éprouvette ne présentant pas d'entaille latérale a été divisée en deux contributions, qui s'experiment par les zones de ruptures plates et de lèvres de cisaillement, que l'on trouve sur les surfaces de rupture. Grâce à une telle approche, on a ramené à des grandeurs rationnelles la taille et la géométrie d'une éprouvette, et on a déterminé les limites de croissance d'une fissure régies par J r et J m en termes de l'extension maximale admissible d'une fissure, et des valeurs minimales de ω (b/j×dJ/da). Les résultats indiquent que, pour des éprouvettes d'épaisseur donnée, l'effet de la géométrie d'une éprouvette est associé à une modification de la contribution des lèvres de cisaillement, et non de la portion plate de la rupture. Cette conclusion est compatible avec la constance de la géométrie que l'on observe dans des mesures du déplacement d'ouverture de la fissure à la pointe de la fissure en progrès dans la zone de rupture plate. En outre, on a montré que J m peut caractériser la résistance à la croissance d'une fissure, sur une gamme plus large de conditions que ne le fait J r.
    Notes: Abstract The effect of specimen size and geometry on the ductile crack growth resistance of a C-Mn steel has been investigated. The resistance, expressed in the form of J-R curves, was measured using the conventionally calculated J(Jr);(b/J×dJ/da) values. The results show that for specimens of given thickness the effect of specimen geometry was due to a change in the shear lip and not to the flat fracture contribution. This conclusion is consistent with the geometry invariance found in measurements of the crack opening displacement at the growing crack tip in the flat fracture region. In addition, it has been shown that J m can characterise crack growth resistance over a wider range of conditions than J r.

    Notes: Most dissociated airway epithelial cells in culture express few of their in vivo functions and only to a limited degree. In this report, we demonstrate that hamster tracheal epithelial (HTE) cells cultured on a collagen gel substratum in a serum-free hormone-supplemented medium differentiate to cilia-beating and mucus-secreting cell types. The medium is Ham's F-12 supplemented with insulin, epidermal growth factor, transferrin, hydrocortisone, cholera toxin, bovine hypothalamus extract, and vitamin A. Under these culture conditions, HTE cells exhibit a growth rate of 24 h/population doubling and reach confluency, at a density of 2-5 × 104 cells/cm2, within 2 weeks. Both the collagen gel substratum and vitamin A of this culture system are important to the growth and differentiation of HTE cells in vitro. Evidence of HTE cell differentiation has been obtained at both the ultrastructural and the histochemical levels. In addition, a variety of biochemical studies (gel filtration, ion exchange column chromatography, enzyme digestion, nitrous acid treatment, and composition analysis) indicate the production of mucin-like glycoprotein in the HTE cultures. The levels of mucin-like glycoprotein were found to closely correlate with the histochemically quantitated levels of the mucous cell type. Kinetic studies demonstrate that HTE cells rapidly lose their differentiated features during the attachment stage of primary culture but redifferentiation occurs after the cultures reach confluency. The ability of HTE cells to grow and differentiate in this serum-free culture system in the absence of other cell types should greatly facilitate the study of mucociliary functions in vitro.
