    Notes: Abstract Tracheobronchial endoluminal reconstruction and stenting has become a valuable palliative tool in adults with intrathoracic tumors compromising the airways. Tracheobronchial balloon dilatation has been recently used in children and even neonates. We report a case of severe airway obstruction requiring emergency intubation and artificial ventilation in a 5-year-old child with intrathoracic recurrence of a rhabdomyosarcoma. Endoscopic balloon dilatation through the endotracheal tube with subsequent implantation of a non self-expanding metal mesh stent was used successfully, allowing extubation and discharge of the child from ICU.

    Notes: Summary Over the past 6 years, major hypertension intervention studies in Europe, Australia, and the USA have shown disappointing results in the prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) in spite of adequate treatment and good compliance. Recently, it has become increasingly clear that hypertensives with or without treatment display higher cholesterol levels than normotensive persons. The present review examines cholesterol levels in six intervention studies, none of which offered dietary or drug therapy for hypercholesterolemic patients. The Oslo study and the British MRC Trial reported very high average cholesterol levels and both showed no protection from CHD through intensive therapy in comparison to control patients. The Australian and the American MRFIT studies produced evidence for reduced coronary mortality among hypertensives with low in contrast to those with high cholesterol levels. The European Working Party showed indirectly that patients with marked reduction in blood pressureand cholesteral had a significantly lower cardiac mortality compared to placebo-treated patients. The IPPPSH study found that increasing cholesterol levels in hypertensives under beta blockeror diuretic therapy increased the risk of myocardial infarction. Failure to reduce cholesterol in hypertensive patients apparently is a major reason for the limited efficacy of antihypertensive treatment in the reduction of CHD.

    Notes: Summary The possible increase in total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol following severe restriction of dietary NaCl was reported in 1990 and and 1991 from three experiments, one in the United States and two in Germany. Each of these experiments lasted only 1 week. To evaluate the clinical side effects we analyzed data collected from patients who completed a course of NaCl-restricted weight reduction at the Duke Diet and Fitness Center. Observations of lipid changes are not available for periods of less than 3 weeks; however, we were able to collect data on lipid and lipoprotein changes from 556 participants 25 days after they were referred for weight reduction. Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride levels returned to normal in the majority of obese patients. In our slightly longer observation period in patients on a 1000 mg NaCl restricted diet we found no evidence of hyperlipidemic side effects. We believe that the hyperlipidemia resulting from severe sodium restriction in non-hypertensive, normal-weight individuals is not relevant to the problem of nonpharmacological and diuretic treatment of obese hypertensive patients. In clinically healthy, normal-weight, normotensive individuals severe salt restriction serves no practical or therapeutic purpose.

    Description / Table of Contents: Influence of purity, cold work and welding on creep rupture behaviour of X20 CrMoV 12 1 tubes at 550 °CIn the water steam circuit of the German Thorium High Temperature Reactor (THTR 300) a high tempered martensitic X20 CrMoV 12 1 steel with low P and S contents and improved impact toughness was used at the first time for live steam and reheater pipes. There were similar and dissimilar weldings (with austenitic steel alloy 800). Small pipes were cold bended.Therefore ABB started a material testing programm supported by BMFT.Creep rupture tests at 550 °C til 60 000 h led to following results:-Creep rupture strength and 1 % creep strain limit of the tougher grade lie in the lower half of the commercial steel scatterband.-Under service creep loadings tertiary creep begins after a life-time of about 60% resp. a plastic elongation of about 1 %.-The creep damage can be described by microstructural classes.-Only for small stress ranges there are nearly constant creep stress exponents which are independent from the melts.-Low loading speeds reduce static elastic moduls.-Cold work reduces creep rupture strength and deformation.-Under stress transverse to welding joints the design according to creep rupture strength of the base material must include a reduction factor. The fine grained part of the HAZ is the weakest area.With the results of long-time examinations the design of future HTR-plants, fossil-fired power stations, and chemical plants may furtherly be optimized.
    Notes: Im Wasser-Dampf-Kreislauf des THTR wurde erstmals im Kraftwerksbau ein P- und S-armer, hoch angelassener martensitischer 12% CrMoV-Stahl mit verbesserter Kerbschlagzähigkeit für FD-, Zwischenüberhitzer- sowie Kleinleitungen eingesetzt. Dabei kommen artgleiche Rohrschweißverbindungen und auf der Dampferzeugerseite die Mischverbindung mit dem austenitischen Stahl X5 NiCrAlTi 3120 vor. Beim Biegen der Kleinleitungen trat Kaltverformung auf.Im Rahmen der vom BMFT geförderten Werkstoffprogramme wurden vorlaufende und betriebsbegleitende Zeitstandversuche an mehreren Schmelzen bis derzeit rund 60 000 h bei 550 °C durchgeführt, die zu folgenden Ergebnissen führten:-Die Zeitstandfestigkeit und 1 %-Zeitdehngrenze der zäheren Variante liegt in der unteren Streubandhälfte der Stahlsorte.-Bei betriebsnaher Zeitstandbeanspruchung muß damit gerechnet werden, daß der 3. Kriechbereich des Grundwerkstoffs und des artgleichen Schweißgutes nach rund 60% der Standzeit bis Bruch bzw. nach einer bleibenden Dehnung von etwa 1% beginnt.-Für verschiedene Spannungsbereiche können annähernd konstante, schmelzenunabhängige Kriechspannungsexponenten angegeben werden.-Eine langsame Belastungsgeschwindigkeit beeinträchtigt den stat. E-Modul.-Zeitstandfestigkeit und -bruchverformung werden durch Kaltverformung beeinträchtigt.-Bei Beanspruchung quer zur Schweißnaht müssen bei der Auslegung gegen die Zeitstandfestigkeit Schweißminderungsfaktoren berücksichtigt werden. Die feinkörnige WEZ ist der zeitstandfestigkeitsmaßig schwächste Bereich.Mit den gewonnenen Ergebnissen kann die Auslegung künftiger HTR-Anlagen, konventioneller Kraftwerke und Chemieanlagen weiter optimiert werden.

    Description / Table of Contents: Characterisation of the delamination behaviour of thermoplastic UD-composites made by different hybrid yarn structuresIn order to determine delamination behaviour of glass-fibre-reinforced polyamid composites the compression shear test and the DCB (Double Cantilever Beam)-, SEN- and NBT-test for mode-I- and the ENF (End Notched Flexure)-test for mode II-loading were used.By these tests the energy release rate G respectively K and the R cure (crack resistance curve) have been measured which characterise the crack resistance of the material against delamination.The composites were made by different hybrid yarn structures produced by air texturing (commingled yarn: COM), side-by-side arrangement (SBS), friction spinning (FS), Kemafil (KEM)- and Schappe(SCH)-technology. The influence of different glass fibre sizings was investigated.The results demonstrate the significant influence of different hybrid yarn structures and glass fibre coatings on fracture thoughness during crack propagation along the fibre/matrix interface. The best values were obtained for composites produced on the basis of commingled yarn structure.
    Notes: Zur Charakterisierung der Widerstandsfähigkeit gegen Delamination und Rißfortschritt wurde an thermoplastischen UD-Verbunden, die aus unterschiedlichen Hybridgarnstrukturen hergestellt worden sind, die Druckscherfestigkeit sowie interlaminare Bruch-zähigkeit mittels „Double Cantilever Beam“-Test (DCB), „Single Edge Notched“-Test (SEN) und „Notched Bending“-Test (NBT) für Mode I-Belastung und dem „End Notched Flexure“-Test (ENF) für Mode II-Belastung untersucht. Die Hybridgarnstrukturen unterscheiden sich ihrer Herstellugstechnologie entsprechend in der Anordnung der Verstärkungs-und thermoplastischen Matrixfilamente im Garn. In die Untersuchungen einbezogen wurden außerdem Verbunde mit unterschiedlicher Grenzschichtgestaltung. Ermittelt wurden die kritischen Energiefreisetzungstraten Gc bzw. die kritischen Spannungsintensitätsfaktoren Kc und für Mode I-Belastung die entsprechenden Rißausbreitungskurven, die die interlaminare Rißausbreitung charakterisieren. Die besten Ergebnisse wurden mit der lufttexturierten Hybridgarnstruktur erreicht.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die phänomenologische Interpretation der Scherkurven wird verfeinert durch die Anwendung des Fluktuation-Dissipation-Theorems und des WIENER-CHINČIN-Theorems. Die Verlustmaxima des Schermoduls und der Schernachgiebigkeit am Glasübergang amorpher Polymere können zwei verschiedenen molekularen Bewegungen zugeordnet werden. Eine Interpretation der zwei Maxima durch eine Art molekularer Bewegungen (uniformes Modell) würde implizieren, daß ihre Flanken in einer Entfernung von zwei logarithmischen Dekaden vom Zentrum signifikant intensiver wären als andere molekulare Bewegungen bei diesen Frequenzen.
    Notes: The phenomenological interpretation of shear curves is refined by application of the fluctuation dissipation theorem and the WIENER-KHINTCHIN theorem. The loss peaks of shear modulus and compliance near the glass transition of amorphous polymers can be attributed to two different molecular motions. An interpretation of the two peaks by one kind of molecular motion (uniform model) would imply that its flanks two logarithmic frequency decads away from the center were significantly more intensive than other molecular motions at these frequencies.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein Überblick der Relaxationsphänomenologie in amorphen verschlauften Polymeren wird gegeben. Unter Benutzung einer allgemeinen Skalenhypothese werden den verschiedenen Zonen des multiplen Glasübergangs systematisch charakteristische Längen zugeordnet. Neue experimentelle Ergebnisse zeigen, daß auf einer gemeinsamen Frequenzskale die kalorischen Spektren zwischen den Maxima von G″ und J″ liegen. Eine Feinstruktur des Hauptübergangs wird vorgeschlagen. Es gibt zwei Komponenten: 1. Die eigentliche Glasübergangszone mit Modenlängen bis zu 2 nm. Diese Länge wird aus kalorischen Spektren erhalten. 2. Eine Behinderungszone der kooperativen Bewegung von Polymerkettensegmenten zwischen den Verschlaufungen mit Modenlänge bis zu 10 nm.
    Notes: A survey of transition phenomenology in amorphous entangled polymers is presented. Using a general scaling hypothesis characteristic lengths are systematically attached to the different zones of the multiple glass transition. New experimental results show the location of caloric spectra between the peaks of G″ and J″ on the common frequency scale. A fine structure of the main transition is suggested. There are two components: (i) The proper glass transition zone with mode lengths up to 2 nm. This length scale is determined from the caloric spectra. (ii) The hindering zone of cooperative motion of polymer chain segments between entanglement points with mode lengths up to 10 nm.

    Description / Table of Contents: A general concept for the description of different relaxation measurements of the main transition (dynamic glass transition) is sketched. New experimental data of shear, dielectric and NMR relaxation, and of dynamic calorimetric (DSC) measurements are modelled according to this concept. The mutual arrangement of the characteristic frequencies obtained are represented for two amorphous polymers (poly(vinyl acetate) and polystyrene).
    Notes: Ein einheitliches Konzept für die Beschreibung unterschiedlicher Relaxationsmessungen des Hauptrelaxationsbietes (Glasübergang) wird skizziert. Experimentelle Werte von Schermessungen, dielektrischen Messungen, Kernresonanz-relaxationsmessungen und dynamischen kalorimetrischen Messungen (DSC) werden entsprechend modelliert. Die gegenseitige Lage der charakteristischen Frequenzen, die bei dieser Beschreibung erhalten werden, wird für zwei amorphe Polymere (PVAC, PS) dargestellt.
