    Notes: In this study, two different cross rolling processes, which are effective rolling processes fora reduction of (0002) plane texture, are introduced. In the first cross rolling process, a sheet specimenis rotated around the rolling plane normal after each pass. In the second cross rolling process, the rollaxis is tilted against the transverse direction (TD) in the rolling direction (RD) - TD plane. The twocross-rolling processed were carried out on a AZ31 alloy, and the press formability of cross-rolledsheets was compared with that of unidirectionally rolled sheets determined by Erichsen tests at 433 –493 K. Both the cross-rolled specimens exhibited a high press formability, compared to anunidirectionally rolled alloy. The high press formability of the specimen by the first cross rolling wasdue to a reduction in (0002) texture intensity. The high press formability of the specimen by thesecond cross rolling was due to not only a reduction in (0002) texture intensity but also grainrefinement

    Notes: Cross-roll rolling with different rolling routes (unidirectional rolling and reverse rolling)was carried out on a commercial Mg alloy sheets. In the cross-roll rolling, the roll axis was tilted by7.5 degrees against the transverse direction. As a result of the Erichsen tests at 433 – 493 K, the stretchformability of the reverse cross-rolled specimen was higher than that of the unidirectional cross-rolledspecimen. The reverse cross-rolled specimen showed lower average Lankford value compared withthe unidirectional cross-rolled specimen. This is likely to be responsible for the enhanced stretchformability of the reverse cross-rolled specimen. The higher stretch formability was attributed toreduction of (0002) texture intensity, which was originated from random grain distribution

    Notes: Abstract Two models of optimal branching structure of the vascular tree are compared. Murray’s minimum work model derived from minimum energy loss due to flow and volume in the duct system is proved to be included as a mathematical group in the authors’ model defined by the minimum volume under determinant pressure, flow and position at the terminals. The problem about heterotypical trees which are identical at the terminal conditions but different in the topological order of branch combinations are discussed, applying the results of analyses on the equivalent duct of uniform terminal pressure trees. It is proved that the minimum work tree has the least energy loss compared with its heterotypical minimum volume trees and is a better model of branching structure of the vascular tree.

    Notes: Abstract The optimum number of total capillaries in the whole human body was estimated from the analysis of the efficiency for oxygen (O2) transport in the vascular-tissue system. We used a tissue model composed of uniform spheres in which O2 diffuses from the capillary located at the centre of each sphere towards the surrounding tissue consuming O2 at a constant rate. The tissue mass supplied by a single capillary was estimated as the area of positive O2 concentration under a given condition of capillary flow and O2 consumption rate. Total tissue mass was determined as the function of the capillary numbern and the total blood flow. On the other hand, the energy cost required to maintain the vascular system withn terminals was assessed by using the minimum volume model (Kamiya and Togawa,Bull. math. Biophys. 34, 431–438, 1972). The efficiency of the entire vascular-tissue system was evaluated by calculating the ratio of total tissue mass/cost function. The result of the calculation using physiological data of cardiac output and O2 consumption for an average human adult during a heavy exercise revealed the maximum efficiency occurring at the capillary number 3.7×1010 which coincided well with its normal range of physiological estimates (3.2×1010–4.2×1010). We concluded that the entire vascular-tissue system is constructed so as to attain the highest efficiency in O2 transport at its maximum activity.

    Notes: Abstract Optimality in branching structure of the vascular tree was studied. Analysis on its physiological roles as the duct system for blood supply to the capillaries predicted that the vascular tree should be constructed with minimum volume under restriction of determinant pressure, flow and location at the origin and the terminals. Mathematical derivations of this conditional extremum problem yielded some equations expressing the relations between the radii of the branches and their branching angles, which provided numerical solutions for branching points of bi- and poli-terminal minimum volume trees. Comparison of the peritoneal vascular tree in a dog with the minimum volume one computed under the same restrictive conditions showed good agreement in their branching structure.

    Notes: Summary To observe cytoplasmic microfilaments in the endothelial cells of flow-loaded arteries, an arteriovenous shunt was constructed between the common carotid artery and the external jugular vein in 26 dogs. After measuring the flow rates of the arteries, the endothelial layer was examined ultrastructurally with a transmission electron microscope at three different times: 1 week (acute experiments), 2–4 weeks (subacute experiments), and 4–7 months (chronic experiments). Six-to seven-nanometer microfilaments were found forming bundles, which usually ran longitudinally along the long axis of the vessel. In the acute experiments, the bundles increased in the endothelial cells of the flow-loaded arteries. They showed incomplete striation and were mostly located close to the basal cell membrane. In the subacute experiments, they showed an increase with the development of cross-striation. The half-desmosomal structure of the basal cell membrane had developed a close connection to the bundles. In the chronic experiments, the bundles were especially conspicuous around the intercellular junction. Tennanometer microfilaments increased in the endothelial cells of the flow-loaded artery in the subacute and chronic experiments. We consider that the bundles of 6- to 7-nm microfilaments might be structures developed to combat wall shear stress corresponding to actin filament stress fibers.

    Notes: Summary A theoretical analysis of the step response in the closed cardiovascular system induced by a sudden shift of the right cardiac output curve predicted that if the relations of the right heart output (COr) and the total systemic capillary flow (CFs) to the systemic venous pressure (Psv) are linear, then the time course ofPsv change will become monexponential with a time constant T given by T=Csv/(Gr + Gs), whereCsv is the systemic vein compliance andGr andGs are the conductances of the transientCOr - Psv andCFs - Psv relationships. A similar prediction was obtained for the time constant T of the pulmonary vein pressure (Ppv) response to the step change in the left cardiac output (COl) curve, pulmonary vein compliance (Cpv) and the conductances of theCol curve, and the pulmonary capillary flow (CFp) curve againstPpv. The actualPsv orPpv changes following sudden alteration of theCOr orCOl curve by inflation and deflation of the balloon in the right or left atrium revealed monoexponential time courses. Semilogarithmic plots of the transient vein pressure changes yielded correlation coefficients of −0.995 ± 0.006 (means ± SD) in 11 curves forPsv and 0.977 ± 0.017 in 16 curves forPpv (P〈0.01). The assumed linearity of dynamicCOr andCOl curves was confirmed by beat by beatCOr - Psv andCOl - Ppv relationships during the step responses, except for the first few beats immediately after the balloon maneuver. The linearity of the dynamicCFs curve was examined by measuringCFs with a double-step balloon maneuver so as to cause rapid equilibrium betweenCOr andCFs at varied moments of the transient process. The correlation coefficient betweenCFs andPsv thus obtained was 0.98 ± 0.04 (P〈0.01). A similar linearity of the dynamicCFp -Ppv relationship was suggested from their steady-state curves. The values ofCsv calculated from the experimental data were 1.70 ± 0.12 ml/mmHg/kg body wt in 11 curves and those ofCpv were 0.13 ± 0.03 ml/mmHg/kg in 15 curves. These results are mostly consistent with those previously reported.
