    Notes: We derive the elastostatic field arising from the introduction of a 2-D dipping antiplane crack at the surface of an elastic half-space having a pre-existing uniform field. The problem is equivalent to that of two identical, joined, antiplane cracks in an infinite, uniformly strained medium; each crack is inclined by the same amount from the axis of symmetry, giving rise to a bent crack. For cracks with the same depth of crack tip beneath the surface, the amount of elastic energy released increases with the angle from the vertical. However, the rate of energy release with increasing angle is less than the rate of increase of surface energy. Plane, vertical cracks are favoured energetically in infinite, homogeneous media, while bent cracks are favoured in heterogeneous media where a crack must deviate from straight line growth in order to bypass a high-strength barrier. We compare the trade-offs in total energy of bent cracks with barrier energies.

    Notes: This paper investigates several aspects of synthetic catalogue generation and aftershock identification schemes. First, we introduce a method for generating synthetic catalogues of earthquakes. This method produces a catalogue which has the geographic appearance of an actual catalogue when the hypocentres are plotted in map view, but allows us to vary the spatial and temporal relationships between pairs of close events. Second, we discuss six statistics to measure certain characteristics of synthetic and actual catalogues. These include four new statistics So, Bo, S1 and B1 which evaluate the distributions of link lengths between events in space and space-time as computed by single-link cluster analysis (SLC). Third, we develop a new scheme for identifying aftershocks in which a group of events forms an aftershock sequence if each event is within a space-time distance D of at least one other event in the group. We define the space-time separation of events by dst=√(d2+C2τ2), where d is the spatial separation of events, τ is the time separation, and C= 1km day-1. Our experience with several synthetic catalogues suggests that an appropriate trial value for D is 9.4 km1/2 (√S1) - 25.2 km. Here, S1, is the median link length using SLC with the metric dsT. Fourth, we generate synthetic catalogues resembling both teleseismic and local network catalogues to evaluate the validity and reliability of this aftershock identification scheme, as well as other schemes proposed by Gardner & Knopoff (1974), Shlien & Toksöz (1974), Knopoff, Kagan & Knopoff (1982), and Reasenberg (1985). Using a simple scoring method, we find that the SLC method compares favourably with other aftershock identification algorithms described in the literature.

    Notes: In March 1990 a pilot ultra-violet disinfection plant was installed at the sewage-treatment works in Bellozanne, Jersey. The pilot plant was set up to test the ability of the process to meet certain defined objectives and, ultimately, to enable the island authorities to satisfy stringent water quality objectives in the receiving waters of St Aubins Bay.The pilot study simulated an open channel installation using medium pressure ultra-violet lamps parallel to the direction of flow. The pilot plant was supplied by Trojan Technologies Inc.The pilot study met its objectives and confirmed the design parameters for a full-scale plant installation to follow.

    Notes: Untreated, pectinesterase treated, low pulp, and pectinase treated orange juices were fortified to 20% RDA of calcium with calcium carbonate or calcium phosphate/lactate (75/25). Neither calcium supplement adversely affected flavor, cloud density, settling pulp, or viscosity in untreated, low pulp, or pectinase treated juices. PME exposed orange juice held 4 hr before pasteurization and calcium supplementation had less cloudy density, increased viscosity and more settling pulp. Calcium carbonate fortified PME exposed and pectinase treated juices had lower flavor scores, while calcium phosphate suspensions caused slightly lower color scores of all juices.

    Notes: Experiments were undertaken to determine, if homogenization would reduce viscosity of bulk orange concentrate during commercial production and if a structure built-up during storage. Homogenizers, installed within two Taste evaporators at separate citrus processing plants, were cycled “on” for homogenized samples and “off” for controls. In four replicates, homogenization significantly reduced viscosity 19% average. Samples were stored 6 months under tank farm conditions. Structure increased in 5 of 8 samples, but homogenized samples remained significantly lower in viscosity. This confirmed earlier pilot plant results under commercial operations.

    Notes: : A combined sewer system is a complex system subject to the dynamic stimuli of precipitation, runoff pollution loads, and sanitary wastes. The system response is a random series of pollutant loads to a receiving water. In many localities, these discharges create considerable water quality problems. Mathematical models can and have played a useful role in predicting the behavior of combined sewer systems and evaluating abatement strategies.Based on the authors' experiences over the past several years, this paper explores some of the positive and negative aspects of using deterministic mathematical models to simulate the behavior of combined sewer systems. A case study follows a discussion on modeling objectives, limitations of modeling, model selection, establishing model credibility, and many other considerations necessary in modeling and simulating these systems.

    Notes: Production characteristics of pan-size (approximately 227 g) channel catfish (Ictalurus puncturus) were determined in cages and open ponds stocked with fingerlings to densities of 20,000 and 12,500 fish/ha. After 145 days, mean fish weight in all treatments exceeded 227 g. Mean survival was similar in all treatments. Food conversion ratios were significantly better in ponds than in cages but density did not affect the ratios. Neither density nor production system affected production (as measured by total weight produced) when initial density differences were considered (analysis of covariance). Variability in total length at harvest was similar between production systems; however, low density treatments were less variable than high density treatments. Results of this study indicate that pan-size channel catfish can be cultured efficiently at stocking densities well above the 12,500 fish/ha (5,000 fishlacre) generally used when culturing fish to larger sizes.
