    Description: Durante la Tercera Expedición Ecuatoriana a la Antártida en enero-febrero de 1991, como parte de los estudios de evaluación del impacto ambiental, se ha iniciado un reconocimieno físico, químico y biológico de un cuerpo de agua dulce en Punta Fort Williams, Isla Greenwich, Shetland del Sur. Se escogió un lago formado en una depresión del terreno con aporte de tipo glacial, expuesto al viento por tres de sus lados, poca profundidad por lo que es bién oxigenado y existe disponibilidad de nutrientes por degradación de materia orgánica vegetal proveniente de los alrededores y acarreada por los vientos. El lago es oligotrófico, sin aporte significativo de excretas de aves y mamíferos. Del plancton estudiado se define que hay un importante componente fitoplanctónico dominado por Achnanthes en concentraciones de hasta 1'800.000 cel./l. El zooplancton está representado mayormente por Copépoda y Anostraca crustáceos omnívoros que se deben alimentar del fitoplancton y detritus; los copépodos mostraron una marcada variación en la composición ontogénica durante el período de estudio. Por su escasa profundidad y gran exposición, este cuerpo de agua debe permanecer sólidamente congelado durante alrededor de ocho meses, por lo que todos los invetebrados que en él viven, tendrán ciclos de vida de corta duración, y un mecanismo de latencia metabólica en la que permanecen la mayor parte del año.
    Description: During the Third Ecuadorian Antarctic Expedition, on january-febraury, 1991, as part of environmental impact assessment studies, a physical, chemical and biological survey was initiated on a fresh-water body located at Point Fort William, Greenwich Island, South Shetland. The pond is formed at a depression of the land having glacial aport and is highly exposed to the wind. It is shallow and well oxigenated, witch nutrient availability due to aport of plant material carried by wind. The pond is oligotrophic, with no animal excreta input. The plankton analysis shows phytoplankton dominated by Achnanthes in concentrations up to 1'8000,000 cel./l. Zooplankton is mainly represented by Copepoda and Anostraca, phytoplankton and detritus feeders. Variation in the ontogenic composition has been observed in the copepods during the study period. Because of its shallowness and high exposure, the water body slould remain solid freeze during the most of the year. The organisms inhabiting this pond must have short-time life cycles and biological mechanisms for supporting such rough environmental conditions by reducing or stoping the metabolism.

    Notes: The Fast Fourier Transform is employed as a method of Laplace transform inversion to solve problems in the civil engineering fields of visco-elasticity and hydrology. When these problems are accurately represented by a linear time-invariant model, it is shown that the Fast Fourier Transform inversion procedure is often more accurate than standard convolution and inversion techniques. The speed and accuracy of solution resulting from this application of the Fast Fourier Transform is illustrated by referring to case studies solved on an IBM 1130 computer, model 3D processor with 32K memory.

    Notes: Stress fields near crack tips in an elastic body can be specified by the stress intensity factors which are closely related to the stress singularities arising from the crack tips. These singularities, however, cannot be represented exactly by conventional finite element models. A new method for the analysis of stresses around cracks is proposed in this paper on the basis of the superposition of analytical and finite element solutions. This method is applied to several two-dimensional problems whose solutions are obtained analytically, and it is shown that their numerical results are in excellent agreement with analytical ones. Sufficiently accurate results can be obtained by the conventional finite element analysis with rather coarse mesh subdivision. Computational efforts are then considerably reduced compared with other methods.

    Notes: A generalized variational principle is presented, which leads to a modified finite element approach for three-dimensional field problems. Both, potential function and velocity field, are approximated by expansions which are continuous across the inter-element boundaries. The rapid convergence of this mixed model is shown by two examples.

    Notes: A computer program for the in-core solution of large, sparse, unsymmetric systems of linear equations is presented in this paper. The program employs elimination techniques for solution of systems of linear equations. A limited number of zeros is stored and trivial arithmetic is by-passed to preserve computer storage and to reduce the time required for solution. Several techniques for selecting the pivotal elements are discussed and their effect on accuracy and computational time are examined.

    Notes: Numerical methods are used to investigate the two-dimensional motion of a viscous incompressible fluid impulsively started past a flat plate of finite breadth at zero incidence to the uniform motion of the fluid at large distances from the plate. A step by step integration in time of Helmholtz's vorticity equation is used for Reynolds numbers 10-500.The magnetohydrodynamic case is also considered with the applied magnetic field at infinity parallel to the uniform stream and the non-conducting plate. Results for the Magnetic Reynolds number 50 and infinite, Viscous Reynolds number 50 and 0≤β≤2, where β is the ratio of the square of the Alfvén speed to the square of the main stream velocity, are presented.
