    Notes: The base-stacking patterns in over 70 published crystal structures of nucleic acid constituents and polynucleotides were examined. Several recurring stacking patterns were found. Base stacking in the solid state apparently is very specific, with particular modes of interaction persisting in various crystalline environments. The vertical stacking of purities and pyrimidines in polynucleotides is similar to that observed in crystals of nucleic acid constituents. Only partial base overlap was found in the majority of the structures examined. Usually, the base overlap is accomplished by positioning polar substituents over the ring system of an adjacent base. The stacking interactions are similar to those found in the crystal structures of other polar aromatic compounds, but are considerably different from the ring-ring interactions in nonpolar aromatic compounds. Apparently, dipole-induced dipole forces are largely responsible for solid-state base stacking. It is found that halogen substituents affect base-stacking patterns. In general, the presence of a halogen substituent results in a stacking pattern which permits intimate contact between the halogen atom and adjacent purine or pyrimidine rings. Considering differences in the stacking patterns found for halogenated and nonhalogenated pyrimidines, a model is proposed to account for the mutagenic effects of halogenated pyrimidines.

    Notes: Racemization in the synthesis of peptide intermediates and their polymers was investigated, using L-amino acid oxidase. The formation of N-hydroxysuccinimide esters from N-protected peptide acids yielded optically pure products in contrast to p-nitrophenyl and pentachlorophenyl active esters. The racemization in the polymerization step was found to be base sensitive. Partially racemized polymer can result from optically homogeneous monomer. Thus, the optical integrity of active monomer species carries no guarantee for that of the polymer.

    Notes: Amino acids are known to differ in their individual preferences for each of the four positions of the β-turn conformation formed by tetrapeptide segments. Proline and glycine show relatively high preferences for positions 2 and 3, respectively, of the β-turn. Using tripeptides of the type N-acetyl-Pro-Gly-X-OH, where X = Gly, Ala, Leu, Ile, and Phe, we have sought to study the influence of the 4th residue X on the stability of the β-turn conformation in these tripeptides. Our nmr and CD results show that the β-turn stability is quite significantly governed by the nature of the amino acid residue at this position in the following order: Leu 〉 Ala 〉 Ile, Gly 〉 Phe.

    Notes: We have synthesized (Pro-Pro-βAla)n as a model for collagen. The synthetic polytripeptide, mol wt 6500, exhibits a large negative optical rotation with a very strong negative Cotton effect centered at 216 nm. The optical rotatory dispersion of (Pro-Pro-βAla)n followed a single-term Drude equation and the λc was 195 nm. The rotation decreased markedly on heating with the midpoint of the broad transition at 55°C. Preliminary studies also showed loss of structure in guadinine HCl. The circular dichroism spectrum of the polymer exhibited a deep trough at 190 nm. The marked similarities of solution properties of (Pro-Pro-βAla)n to (Pro-Pro-Gly)n suggest that β-alanine can replace glycine in generating collagen-like helix in solution.

    Notes: Described are the preparation of nanocrystals and the synthesis of molecules that may be covalently or noncovalently assembled in solution to yield heterosupermolecules possessing a well-defined heterosupramolecular function. Also described are preparative and synthetic methods that yield organized assemblies of heterosupermolecules possessing an addressable heterosupramolecular function. Finally, the development of these synthetic strategies to permit the covalent and noncovalent assembly and organization of a wide range of condensed phase and molecular components is outlined.

    Notes: A structural optimization problem is considered in which the design requirements include restrictions on the strength, stability, frequency and flutter characteristics of the structure. One of the central concerns of this phase of the work has been to overcome the problems inherent in analysing the dynamic and aeroelastic behaviour of structures with many degrees of freedom. The multiweb delta wing structure under supersonic flight conditions is the model upon which this exploratory study is based. The finite element idealization, with three different kinds of elements, is used to model the wing structure. The constant stress triangular plate elements, the rectangular shear panels and the pin-jointed bar elements are used to represent, respectively, the cover skins, webs and stringers of the wing structure. The design problem is formulated as a minimum weight optimization problem and is solved by using non-linear programming techniques. Computationally efficient schemes are developed for the necessary derivatives of the behaviour constraints. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the feasibility and the computational effectiveness of the method.

    Notes: The problem of design of actively controlled structures subject to restrictions on the damping parameters of the closed-loop system is formulated and solved as a multiobjective optimization problem. The purpose of control is to effectively suppress structural vibrations due to initial excitation. The cross-sectional areas of the members are treated as design variables. The structural weight and the controlled system energy are considered as objective functions for minimization. The goal programming approach is used for the solution of the multiobjective optimization problems. The procedure is illustrated through numerical simulations using two-bar and twelve-bar truss structures.

    Notes: It is recognized that there exists a vast amount of fuzzy information in both the objective and constraint functions of the optimum design of structures. Since most practical structural design problems involve several, often conflicting, objectives to be considered, a multi-objective fuzzy programming method is outlined in this work. The fuzzy constraints define a fuzzy feasible domain in the design space and each of the fuzzy objective functions defines the optimum solution by a fuzzy set of points. A method of solving a fuzzy multi-objective structural optimization problem using ordinary single-objective programming techniques is presented. The computational approach is illustrated with two numerical examples.

    Notes: Acrylonitrile was grafted onto cellulose with the use of ceric salt as initiator and the grafting was found to be maximum at 0.6N acid concentration. The effect of monomer and initiator concentration on the extent of grafting was studied. A new method for quantitative estimation of extent of grafting on cellulose was developed and its validity was established. The grafted samples with 20% increase in weight were found to be highly resistant to microorganisms.
