    Notes: Of primary concern are irreversible effects, such as cancer induction, that formaldehyde exposure could have on human health. Dose-response data from human exposure situations would provide the most solid foundation for risk assessment, avoiding problematic extrapolations from the health effects seen in nonhuman species. However, epidemiologic studies of human formaldehyde exposure have provided little definitive information regarding dose-response. Reliance must consequently be placed on laboratory animal evidence. An impressive array of data points to significantly nonlinear relationships between rodent tumor incidence and administered dose, and between target tissue dose and administered dose (the latter for both rodents and Rhesus monkeys) following exposure to formaldehyde by inhalation. Disproportionately less formaldehyde binds covalently to the DNA of nasal respiratory epithelium at low than at high airborne concentrations. Use of this internal measure of delivered dose in analyses of rodent bioassay nasal tumor response yields multistage model estimates of low-dose risk, both point and upper bound, that are lower than equivalent estimates based upon airborne formaldehyde concentration. In addition, risk estimates obtained for Rhesus monkeys appear at least 10-fold lower than corresponding estimates for identically exposed Fischer-344 rats.

    Notes: Results of three independent experimental methods for determination of sorption coefficients were compared on sieved aquifer material samples from Columbus AFB, Columbus, Mississippi. These aquifer materials contained 〈0.1% organiccarbon, and sorption coefficients for naphthalene ranged from 0.06 to 0.20 I/kg. There was low correlation between organic carbon contents and sorption coefficients. Good agreement was found among sorption coefficients measured by batch, dynamic column, and dynamic box methods. Similarity of the coefficients was attributed to measured fast sorption kinetics and to linearity of isotherms observed for naphthalene sorption on Columbus aquifer material. Results indicate that channeling, wall and end effects, and particle loss were insignificant in the dynamic systems. Since laboratory sorption coefficient measurements were found impractical on whole sand-gravel aquifer samples, an equation is proposed to convert laboratory measured sorption coefficients on the separated sand (〈2 mm) fraction to sorption coefficients on wholesand-gravel aquifer materials.

    Notes: In the BAT ground water sampling system, a stainless steel probe with a porous filter element is pushed vertically to the desired sampling depth. An evacuated glass sampling tube is then lowered down the penetration rods where it makes contact with the filter via a hypodermic needle and draws a pore fluid sample.An investigation of the system was carried out at a number of sites contaminated by leaking underground gasoline storage tanks. Ground water samples obtained using the BAT system and adjacent monitoring wells were analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs).Because the BAT system is an in situ penetration device with a small filter length, it is possible to determine variations in contaminant concentration with depth. BAT samples in general exhibited higher recovery of VOCs than did bailer samples from adjacent monitoring wells screened over large intervals.Much higher levels of VOCs were recovered when the probe was used with its 316 stainless steel filter than when using the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) filter. Significant sorption apparently occurred on the latter filter.Because the BAT sample tubes are sealed and remain a closed system, the in situ water pressure is maintained. No significant loss of VOCs was found in sampling tubes containing headspace. Samples from the upper tube in the cascaded setup with headspace recovered levels of VOCs as high, or in a few cases higher, than the lower, no-headspace tubes.

    Notes: Abstract The stability of the PUMA-560 robot manipulator is investigated under model mismatch using PD and PID controllers. Craig's quadratic half-plane constraint analysis is applied, and conditions are found in terms of calculated position and velocity error upper bounds to guarantee the stability of the robot arm under PD control. The theory is extended to guarantee stability under PID control using the modified positive quadratic space constraint analysis. Dynamic model mismatch is assumed to result from incomplete knowledge of the link masses, centers of mass and radii of gyration. The results indicate stability regions under different percentages of individual and combined parameter mismatch in the model.

    Notes: Abstract Stoichiometric polycrystalline In2Se3 thin films have been grown by elemental evaporation on both glass and quartz substrates. The compositions are examined by DAN fluorimetry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Structure of the films are characterized by X-ray diffraction. The structure of this α-form of thin films have been determined to be hexagonal. Optimization of the preparative conditions employed for elemental evaporation, helped in preparing monophasic films by the suppression of other phases to a very minor extent. Influence of annealing conditions on the stoichiometry of the films are investigated in detail.
