    Notes: Abstract Electromicroscopic examinations were carried out on 30 myocardial biopsies taken from 22 human donor hearts immediately after excision (prestorage) or immediately before transplantation (post-storage). All electron micrographs were independently examined by two morphologists. Eleven structures were examined in each micrograph, and each structure was scored according to the degree of injury. A good interobserver correlation was obtained in 84 % of the structures scored. In the prestorage left ventricular biopsies (n = 11), approximately 20 %–25 % showed moderate to severe ultrastructural injury. The ultrastructural injury observed in the poststorage left ventricular biopsies (n = 15) was no different from that in the prestorage group, particularly injury to the sarcomere and mitochondria. A similar degree and pattern of injury was seen in the right ventricle (n = 4). There was no evidence that an ischemic storage period of less than 6 h increased the degree of injury seen. However, there was a higher incidence of moderate to severe injury in those hearts excised from donors initially dependent on high inotropic support.

    Notes: Significant noise (random error) is common in an on-line signal when measuring the particle size distribution in a fluidized bed. The application of optimal estimation theory to obtain a filtering algorithm that can rectify such measurements is detailed. Off-line simulation studies demonstrate that the filtering algorithm yields a measure of particle size distribution that is well-behaved, accurate, and able to track in real time as conditions change in the bed.

    Notes: Optimal distributed-parameter filters are commonly implemented using approximating lumped Kalman filtering theory. The effect of such an approximation is investigated. A theoretical development shows that there is a loss in the spatial noise correlation for the lumped approximants. Two numerical examples of engineering significance illustrate that one result of this loss is slower filter convergence for the lumped approximants relative to the full distributed-parameter filters.

    Notes: A novel method for tracking particle size distribution dynamics in a fluidized bed yields on-line, real-time measurements of particle size distribution that are representative of actual conditions. These measurements are somewhat corrupted with noise (random error), however, and are available to the computer only at discrete time intervals. An optimal filtering algorithm combines the measurements with predictions from an idealized dynamic model to yield particle size distribution estimates that are not only on-line and real-time, but also virtually continuous and well-behaved.
