    Notes: Summary The lining osteoblasts of the rat tibial endosteum were treated for various times (between 1 and 60 min) and increasing doses (3.87–38.7 μg/ml) with the macrolide fungal metabolite cytochalasin B (CB). Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) served as the vehicle for CB and was administered to control tissues. An in vitro incubation system and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to evaluate the effects of CB. The drug initiated cell rounding (contraction), nuclear protrusion, bleb formation, and the subsequent clustering of blebs and microvilli into aggregates. All CB-induced aberrations of the surface structure were readily reversible when tissues were washed with CB-free media. DMSO had no significant effect on cell surface morphology. The reversible structural changes brought about by CB are explained in terms of alterations of the subplasmalemmal cortical microfilament system of osteoblasts. The potential use of CB in evaluating the bone cell cytoskeleton and its relationship to the physiology of the cellular functional membrane (endosteum) of bone is discussed.

    Description: The partitioning of excess photochemical energy as a function of the vibrational energy of the state of C2N2 has been measured. Surprisal theory has been used to analyze the data and it shows that complete randomization does not occur before dissociation. The results are also inconsistent with the predictions of the quasidiatomic theory for photodissociation.

    Description: The effect of time delay was determined in the visual and motion cues in a flight simulator on pilot performance in tracking a target aircraft that was oscillating sinusoidally in altitude only. An audio side task was used to assure the subject was fully occupied at all times. The results indicate that, within the test grid employed, about the same acceptable time delay (250 msec) was obtained for a single aircraft (fighter type) by each of two subjects for both fixed-base and motion-base conditions. Acceptable time delay is defined as the largest amount of delay that can be inserted simultaneously into the visual and motion cues before performance degradation occurs. A statistical analysis of the data was made to establish this value of time delay. Audio side task provided quantitative data that documented the subject's work level.

    Description: The effect of secondary tasks in determining permissible time delays in visual-motion simulation of a pursuit tracking task was examined. A single subject, a single set of aircraft handling qualities, and a single motion condition in tracking a target aircraft that oscillates sinusoidally in altitude were used. In addition to the basic simulator delays the results indicate that the permissible time delay is about 250 msec for either a tapping task, an adding task, or an audio task and is approximately 125 msec less than when no secondary task is involved. The magnitudes of the primary task performance measures, however, differ only for the tapping task. A power spectraldensity analysis basically confirms the result by comparing the root-mean-square performance measures. For all three secondary tasks, the total pilot workload was quite high.

    Description: An experimental study was made to determine the effect on pilot performance of time delays in the visual and motion feedback loops of a simulated pursuit tracking task. Three major interrelated factors were identified: task difficulty either in the form of airplane handling qualities or target frequency, the amount and type of motion cues, and time delay itself. In general, the greater the task difficulty, the smaller the time delay that could exist without degrading pilot performance. Conversely, the greater the motion fidelity, the greater the time delay that could be tolerated. The effect of motion was, however, pilot dependent.
