    Notes: [Auszug] To the editor — There are currently intervention trials in which β-carotene is being administered to individuals with high risk of developing cancer1. Despite promising preliminary results from these trials2,3 there has been surprise at the report4 that β-carotene can increase lung ...

    Notes: Abstract Stratigraphy, lithology and depositional structures of Liassic red limestone-breccias of the Adnet Formation, including the ‘Adnet Scheck’, were studied at several outcrops of the Northern Calcareous Alps (NCA) south-east of Salzburg. A four-fold lithostratigraphic division is proposed for the Adnet Formation of the Osterhorn Mountains: the hemipelagic Schmiedwirt (Sinemurian) and Kehlbach (Carixian) members are separated from the pelagic Saubach Member (Toarcian) by a layer of amalgamated breccias (Scheck Member, probably Domerian to early Toarcian). Several other breccia beds occur locally from the base of the Kehlbach Member up to the lower Saubach Member. Although the sediments overlying the Scheck Member breccias are of coeval age, the ages of the underlying strata are very different. This can be explained by submarine Liassic erosion during a period of resedimentation from the middle Carixian until the early Toarcian. At least 10–15 m of partly lithified sediments were eroded by gravity flows. The entire Kehlbach Member and up to two-thirds of the Schmiedwirt Member were removed at Adnet. The breccias originated from submarine debris flows. Repeated flows over a long period and the depositional setting exclude a triggering by sea-level fluctuations. Most probably they arose from tectonically triggered slumps and slides of superficial sediments. The ‘Scheck’ was initiated on the steep upper slope of the drowned Triassic Adnet reef and flowed to the north-east. The Pliensbachian to early Toarcian period of tectonic activity indicated by the breccias was the most important during the Liassic in the Osterhorn Mountains and other parts of the NCA. From the large-scale regional distribution of the breccias and in accord with published data, a roughly northeast trending strike-slip fault zone is proposed, crossing the NCA south of the Osterhorn block, with a peaking activity during the Pliensbachian to early Toarcian as the cause of the tectonic movements.

    Notes: Abstract Facies analysis, fossil dating, and the study of the metamorphism in the Late Triassic to Early Cretaceous sedimentary successions in the central part of the Northern Calcareous Alps allow to reconstruct the tectonic evolution in the area between the South Penninic Ocean in the northwest and the Tethys Ocean with the Hallstatt Zone in the southeast. The Triassic as well as the Early and Middle Jurassic sediments were deposited in a rifted, transtensive continental margin setting. Around the Middle/Late Jurassic boundary two trenches in front of advancing nappes formed in sequence in the central part of the Northern Calcareous Alps. The southern trench (Late Callovian to Early Oxfordian) accumulated a thick succession of gravitatively redeposited sediments derived from the sedimentary sequences of the accreted Triassic–Liassic Hallstatt Zone deposited on the outer shelf and the margin of the Late Triassic carbonate platform. During a previous stage these sediments derived from sequences deposited on the more distal shelf (Salzberg facies zone of Hallstatt unit, Meliaticum), and in a later stage from more proximal parts (Zlambach facies zone of Hallstatt unit, Late Triassic reef belt). Low temperature–high pressure metamorphism of some Hallstatt limestones before redeposition is explained by the closure of parts of the Tethys Ocean in Middle to Late Jurassic times and associated subduction. In the northern trench (Late Oxfordian to Kimmeridgian) several hundred meters of sediment accumulated including redeposited material from a nearby topographic rise. This rise is interpreted as an advancing nappe front as a result of the subduction process. The sedimentary sealing by Tithonian sediments, documented by uniform deep-water sedimentation (Oberalm Formation), gives an upper time constraint for the tectonic events. In contrast to current models, which propose an extensional regime for the central and eastern Northern Calcareous Alps in the Late Jurassic, we propose a geodynamic model with a compressional regime related to the Kimmerian orogeny.

    Notes: Abstract Due to inner pressure the tire is a prestressed system of cord layers. The cord layers are covered by rubber layers. The whole structure is coated by a wear-resistive thread and a soft side wall coating. Serving as a boundary condition at the cord ends is a steel ring at both sides of the wheel rim. To stiffen the thread the structure has a steel cord belt with a ply angle of ±20° to the circumferential direction. The rolling system works like a spring with changing contact forces, and to compute the car dynamics it is necessary to take into account a high frequency and nonlinear varying contact. The forces between tire and road are limited by friction which gives rise to high frequency friction oscillations. Also the structural dynamics of the tire is nonconservative and self-excited, and an appropriate damping of cords and rubber is needed to stabilize the system dynamically. The computing static equilibrium and equations of motion of a continuum mechanics membrane model are treated, and the discretization to a multi-masspoint model is shown. The resulting nonlinear system of Newtonian equations is solved by using the predictor-corrector integration method in time. The time step of integration is due to the highest frequency of the system, and it is ten times shorter than the minimum of oscillation time in the system. All the nonlinearities, the hysteretic damping, and small bending moments of the rubber layers are taken into account to compute the nonstationary rolling with slip and spin on uneven roads or soft ground.
