    Notes: Abstract The present study was designed to determine whether there is a causal relationship between noise-induced hypertension and changes of endothelial function. Rats were exposed to noise stress (100 dB, 1 kHz, 4 h/day, 6 days/week) for 1–4 weeks. The systolic blood pressure was significantly increased after rats were exposed to noise stress for 3 weeks. The relaxant responses of isolated mesenteric arterial rings to endothelium-dependent vasodilators (A23187 and acetylcholine) in noise-treated rats were significantly less than those in control rats. This difference in response to acetylcholine still existed in the presence of methylene blue or Nω-nitro-L-arginine. On the other hand, the responses to the endothelium-independent vasodilator nitroglycerin were not affected in rats exposed to noise stress. The attenuation to endothelium-dependent vasodilators during noise stress may result in increasing peripheral vascular resistance and thus elevate blood pressure. This indicates that noise-induced hypertension may be partly due to the alterations of endothelial activity.

    Notes: Abstract Displacement potentials in linear static elasticity consist of three functions which can be regarded as the three components of a vector, e.g., the Galerkin vector. This research note gives an explanation as to why the biharmonic equations govern these functions in isotropic elasticity as opposed to the sixth-order partial differential equations that govern them in anisotropic elasticity. This note also shows that the Eshelby solution in two-dimensional anisotropic elasticity can be derived from the method of displacement potentials.

    Notes: A methodology is set forth for the numerical solution of the transient freezing problem of a viscous power-law fluid flowing in a cold empty tube with a frozen layer forming on the inside tube surface. The fluid considered is the melt of a semicrystalline polymer with temperature dependent viscosity. The solution domain encompasses both the liquid and solid phases. Coordinate transformations are employed to immobilize and to straighten the moving, curved interface. An implicit finite difference method is employed to solve the governing equations. Numerical results are analyzed by examining the effects of the Peclet number, Nahme number, Stefen number, and the power law index on the profiles of the frozen layer. Variations of the thickness of the frozen layer as a function of time and axial coordinate are also presented.

    Notes: A Markov chain model was used to model the axial mixing of solid particles in a motionless mixer having no moving parts. One step transition probabilities were determined experimentally for the model. Based on these transition probabilities, the model was able to predict spatial distribution of tracer particles up to seven steps of the Markov chain, which was equivalent to seven consecutive passes of the mixture through the mixer. Experimental results were in good agreement with those predicted from the Markov chain model.

    Notes: The problem of steady solidification of a power law fluid flowing in a round tube was solved numerically. The fluid considered was a polymer with temperature dependent viscosity. The mathematical solution was obtained by using an implicit finite difference method. Results are presented to show the effects of the Peclet number, Nahme number, and the power law index on the profiles of the frozen layer. Melt temperature profiles at different axial locations are also presented.
