    A bifurcated circular waveguide problem

    No full text
    This is a pre-copy-editing, author-produced PDF of an article accepted for publication in IMA Journal of Applied Mathematics following peer review. The definitive publisher-authenticated version A D Rawlins. A bifurcated circular waveguide problem. J.I.M.A. 54 (1995) 59-81. Oxford University press is available online at: http://imamat.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/reprint/54/1/59.pdfA rigorous and exact solution is obtained for the problem of the radiation of sound from a semi-infinite rigid duct inserted axially into a larger acoustically lined tube of infinite length. The solution to this problem is obtained by the Wiener-Hopf technique. The transmission and reflection coefficients, when the fundamental mode propagates in the semi-infinite tube, are obtained. The present results could be of use for exhaust design, and as a possible instrument for impedance measurement

    Early behavioural changes in scrapie-affected mice and the influence of dapsone

    No full text
    Behavioural testing can reveal effects in scrapie-infected mice long before overt clinical signs appear (Betmouni et al., 1999, Psychobiology, 27, 63–71). These effects may be partly attributable to an early, atypical inflammatory response in the brain (Betmouni et al., 1996, Neuroscience, 74, 1–5). The present study replicated and extended these findings, and examined the effect of chronic treatment with dapsone. This anti-inflammatory compound has been reported to delay disease onset in a rat model of Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (Manuelidis et al., 1998, Lancet, 352, 456). Although the doses used in the present study were higher than those of Manuelidis et al. (1998), no attenuation of the disease was seen in either behavioural or subsequent histological tests. Burrowing, i.e. displacing food pellets from a tube in the home cage, decreased from around week 12 in scrapie-infected mice, as did consumption of palatable glucose solution. Concurrently, ambulation in an open field increased, as did rearing at around week 17. Spontaneous alternation was impaired around this time. Around 18 weeks, motor performance on an inverted screen, horizontal bar, rotating rod and static rods decreased. Nest construction was impaired at 20 weeks. Overt clinical signs (reduction in mobility, hunched posture, poor coat condition, bladder enlargement) only occurred after week 20, when the mice were prepared for histology. The ME7 scrapie-infected mice thus showed a characteristic complex of neurological and behavioural changes during the course of the disease that were not ameliorated by dapsone. These changes appeared well before clinical signs were prominent

    Letter dated 6 December 1973 from Stephen L. Rawlins, soil scientist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to K. P. George, responding to a letter addressed to Lorenzo A. Richards (copy sent to Lorenzo A. Richards); Also a letter dated 16 December 1973 from Lorenzo A. Richards to Stephen L. RawlinsWESTERN REGION, SO.CALIFORNIA-HAWAII AREA December 6, 1973 Dr. K. P. George Dept. of Civil Engineering The University of Mississippi University, Mississippi 38677 Dear Dr. George: Dr. Richards has retired, but is still very much interested in the subject of your letter otl November 13. Because he lacks technical literature and references at his home, he has forwarded your letter to me for reply. He also suggests a technique for embedding psy­chrometers in concrete. You could embed a ceramic enclosed psychrom­eter with a small nylon tube cemented into the enclosure to permit pressure to be applied to Keep the psychrometer from filling with water before the concrete set. Commercial psychrometers, as well as ancillary equipment, can he obtained from Wescor (45b> South Main St. , Logan, Utah 84321). Enclosed is a reprint describing an experiment that used a vented, ceramic-enclosed psychrometer that may be of" interest to you. Sincerely, Stephen L.Rawlins Supervisory Soil Scientist cc: Dr. L.A.Richards Enclosure USSL Publ. #463 SLR:ask .A 7 oiW A\ A V 7 7 fr I \u27 • At • I ••--s, -f .. ,-., AAjyt-L •• 4 •>-»- - / . 7 A„ :s.-y....i . • ..• A A . s\u27•••!.. p %%A o 7 A • .: >- \u27 • " " \u27 f- •( \u27- • " • - A Ay- i A 4 Ytytyf A-f 7 - 7 .-. .. q! • • \u27• -i \u27--•\u27 o : \u27 • •• yi b*A ( 7,uj_.y ... .-, • "j~ • y> -iA^y 77*71 , p •\u27• s t -- £.is. i.y- i...s &Ay i ; T si iS y •. > A- t t • i I •\u27, A I -\u27A / / . , A \u27 7 \u27 y » vJ IAS \ i s,iQ/. % . • • - •-^AT*- / - •\u27 ••- 7 O _ -\u27._. i p . .- y - • •-.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
