    Notes: Temporary array deployments of short-period seismometers in northern Australia have been used to build up composite record sections for waves interacting with the upper mantle. Stable measures of the seismic wavefield are provided by stacking the complex envelopes of all the seismic waveforms falling in a 10km distance interval away from the source.Two groups of sources (a) along the Flores Arc, Indonesia with propagation under northwestern Australia, and (b) in New Guinea with paths to the NNE of the array, have been used to construct composite record sections for both P and SV waves over the distance range 1300–2800 km. the timing and amplitude distributions for P waves from the two regions show noticeable differences. Detailed modelling of the record sections yields velocity models with significant variation in velocity for the two sets of propagation paths for which the midpoints are separated by about 1000km.The short-period SV-wave sections indicate efficient propagation of highfrequency S waves in a lithosphere extending down to 210km. Arrivals from the deeper mantle cannot be correlated with confidence because of a loss in high-frequency content revealed by broad-band observations. This requires a significant attenuation zone for S beneath 210 km.

    Notes: It is noteworthy that the dehydro-Ala residue adopts an extended conformation that is different than those observed in dehydro-Phe, dehydro-Leu, and dehydro-Abu. The peptide N-Boc-L -Phe-dehydro-Ala-OCH3 (C18H24N2O5) was synthesized by the usual workup procedure and finally by converting N-Boc-L-Phe-L-Ser-OCH3 to N-Boc-L-Phe-dehydro-Ala-OCH3. It was crystallized from its solution in a methanol-water mixture at room temperature. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space group P21 with a = 9.577(1) Å, b = 5.195 (3) Å, c = 19.563 (3) Å, β = 94.67 (5)°, V = 970.1(6) Å3, Z = 2, dm = 1.201(5) Mg m-3, dc = 1.197 (5) Mg m-3. The structure was determined using direct method procedures. It was refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure to an R value of 0.048 for 1370 observed reflections. The C2α-C2β distance is 1.327 (8) Å, while the bond angles N2-C2α-C2' and C1'-N2-C2α are 109.8 (5)° and 127.8 (5)°, respectively. The backbone adopts a nonspecific conformation with dehydro-Ala in a fully extended conformation with the following torsion angles: θl = 175.2 (4)°, ω, 0 = 170.2 (4)°, ø1 = 135.8 (5)°, ψ 1 = -22.6(6)°, ω1 = 168.5 (5)°, ψ2,= -170.3(5)°, ψ2T = -178.6(5)°', θT = 178.4(7)°. The rigid planar and trans conformation of dehydro-Ala forces Phe to adopt a strained conformation. The Boc group has a trans-trans conformation. The side-chain torsion angles of the Phe residue are χ1 = 63.3(6)°, χ12,1 = -92.1(6)°, χ12,2 = 89.5 (6)°. The observed conformation is stabilized by three nonlinear intramolecular C - H---O type of interactions. The crystal structure is stabilized by an intermolecular hydrogen bond N1 - H1---O2 of distance 2.938(7) Å along the b axis while the van der Waals forces are the stabilizing interactions in the ac plane. The low-energy conformation found by calculations corresponds to the solid state conformation established by the crystal structure analysis. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: This study was aimed at comparing vented extruder geometries and identifying scale-up parameters for melt devolatilization. Data are presented comparing single- and corotating twin-screw extruders for devolatilization of methyl methacrylate from poly(methyl methacrylate), and parameters are identified which characterize dynamic similarity for potential use in design and scale-up. These parameters include conventional process variables such as temperature, throughput, screw RPM, and degree of fill.

    Notes: A comprehensive study of polyethylene extrusion was carried out with an instrumented extruder on several screws differing in geometry and paralleled with capillary rheometry of the extrudate leading to melt viscosity and elasticity functions. Assuming Oldroyd's constitutive equation for molten polyethylene and the extrudate melt temperature oscillation (ΔTm) as a measure of the process stability and an indication of melt mixing quality, it was found that the product of the dimensionless numbers (Deborah, De and Brinkman, Br) correlates well (r = 0.93) with ΔTm. Since the Br and De groups follow from the rheological characteristics of the melt and the extrusion process parameters, a relationship of type: ΔTm = a + b (De) (Br) appears useful in designing an extrusion process (for a polymer of known rheology) with respect to its stability, and indirectly, its mixing efficiency.

    Notes: The present study determines the effect of a specific and an irreversible inhibitor of histidine decarboxylase (HDC), α-fluoromethylhistidine (α-FMH) on the mouse preimplantation embryo development in vitro. The embryo culture technique was used to assess the effect of α-FMH. Embryos recovered at 0800-0900 hr (AM) on day 3 of pregnancy were 4-8 cells, whereas those recovered at 1600-1630 hr were mostly 8-cell compacted embryos. Of the day 3-AM embryos, 81.3 ± 4.3% developed to blastocysts within 48 hr when cultured in the medium alone, but addition of α-FMH (0.19 or 0.38 mM) drastically reduced the blastocyst formation to 26.6 ± 7 or 16.8 ± 4.3%. Most of them were arrested before the compaction stage. Addition of L-histidine, the substrate for HDC, did not alter the inhibition of blastocyst formation in the presence of α-FMH (37.2 ± 10.9%). Of the day 3-PM embryos, 99.3 ± 0.7% developed to blastocyst stage when cultured in the medium alone and addition of α-FMH (0.19 or 0.38 mM) did not affect the embryo development (92.1 ± 4.3 or 81.9 ± 9.9% developed to blastocysts). The birth of healthy young following transfer of these blastocysts into pseudopregnant mice indicates normal development of the embryos under this condition. The results suggest that histamine synthesis may be required for the process of compaction and thus the formation of blastocyst.

    Notes: The paper discusses the propagation of torsional surface wave in a homogeneous substratum over a half-space with linearly varying rigidity and density. The study reveals that under assumed conditions, a torsional surface wave propagates in the medium. The velocities of torsional surface waves have been calculated numerically and are presented in a number of graphs. It is also observed that for a stratum over a homogeneous half-space, the velocity of torsional surface waves coincides with that of Love waves. For a non-homogeneous half-space it is observed that the velocity of torsional surface waves is always higher than that of Love waves propagated in a homogeneous layer over a homogeneous half-space. An attempt is also made to assess the possible propagation of torsional surface waves in a half-space with linearly varying rigidity and density, lacking a superficial layer. It is concluded that such a half-space allows two solutions for torsional waves while a homogeneous half-space has one.

    Notes: The paper studies the propagation of Rayleigh waves in an incompressible layer with general variation of rigidity as μ=μ0(1+bz)m resting over a homogeneous incompressible elastic half-space. Instead of using the Whittaker function, the expansion formula proposed by Newlands has been used for better results at shallow depths. As a particular case for m=1, the results have been shown to coincide with those obtained by Newlands. The velocities have been computed for different values of m and the results are presented in graphs.

    Notes: It is well known that an elastic homogeneous half-space does not allow torsional surface waves to propagate. The present paper attempts to find out the possibility of propagation of such waves in a viscoelastic half-space. The study reveals that although the homogeneous elastic half-space does not allow torsional surface waves to propagate, a viscoelastic half-space does so. The wave is damped due to the viscoelastic parameter. It has also been found that as the viscoelastic parameter decreases, the medium becomes elastic and the torsional surface waves ceases to propagate.
