    Notes: Abstract Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) has existed as a subfield of AI for less than two decades. DAI is concerned with systems that consist of multiple independent entities that interact in a domain. Traditionally, DAI has been divided into two sub-disciplines: Distributed Problem Solving (DPS) focuses on the information management aspects of systems with several components working together towards a common goal; Multiagent Systems (MAS) deals with behavior management in collections of several independent entities, or agents. This survey of MAS is intended to serve as an introduction to the field and as an organizational framework. A series of general multiagent scenarios are presented. For each scenario, the issues that arise are described along with a sampling of the techniques that exist to deal with them. The presented techniques are not exhaustive, but they highlight how multiagent systems can be and have been used to build complex systems. When options exist, the techniques presented are biased towards machine learning approaches. Additional opportunities for applying machine learning to MAS are highlighted and robotic soccer is presented as an appropriate test bed for MAS. This survey does not focus exclusively on robotic systems. However, we believe that much of the prior research in non-robotic MAS is relevant to robotic MAS, and we explicitly discuss several robotic MAS, including all of those presented in this issue.

    Notes: An analytical, numerical and experimental program is described which establishes the basic fracture mechanics properties of an adhesive joint. A finite element analysis of a homogeneous finite tapered double cantilever beam is first presented and the results compared with elasticity and strength of materials solutions. Using analytical results developed in another paper, a finite bond line thickness correction factor is introduced to determine the crack tip stress intensity factor as a function of crack length. An experimental program is described wherein the crack tip stress intensity factor for the cantilever beam adhesive joint is measured by the compliance method and the results compared with those obtained by analytical and numerical methods. Finally, the critical value of the adhesive crack tip stress intensity factor is determined using the analytical and experimental techniques presented.

    Notes: Processing Polycarbonate/carbon fiber composites for long times at high temperatures significantly improved adhesion between the matrix and the fibers. The interfacial properties were studied by measuring transverse fracture toughness, observing fracture specimens by scanning electron microscopy, and by monitoring composite cross-sections using atomic force microscopy. The processing treatment provided an ideal method for varying the properties of the interface without changing any other properties. We used this method to study the effect of interfacial properties on the axial compression properties of unidirectional composites. Both the compression strength and compression modulus increased significantly as the fiber/matrix adhesion improved. We concluded that improving interfacial adhesion increased compression properties by inhibiting fiber microbuckling.

    Notes: Information and parameters obtainable from the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis test method are defined. The sensitivity of the technique in detecting the presence of separate phases is emphasized. The Polymer Laboratories DMTA instrumentation is briefly described and its various modes of operation, such as frequency multiplexing, discussed. The theory of the mechanical response of two phase systems is presented via the Takayanagi model approach. Series and parallel coupling constants are derived for a few systems as examples of the definition of phase morphology. Examples are given of the results for ethylene-propylene random copolymer, block copolymer elastomers, rubber toughened poly(styrene), carbon fiber reinforced expoxies with different orientations of fiber, and carbon black filled rubbers. The engineering properties of composites are available directly from the PL-DMTA, which provides sensitive detection of non-linear mechanical behavior, frequently found in multi-phase polymer systems.
