    Notes: The performance of multiplier algorithms for structural optimization has been significantly improved by using trust regions. The trust regions are constructed using analytical second order sensitivity, and within this region, the augmented Lagrangian φ is minimized subject to bounds. Evaluation of first and second derivatives of φ by the adjoint method does not require derivations of individual (implicit) constraint functions, which makes the method economical. Eight test problems are considered and a vast improvement over previously used multiplier algorithms has been noted. Also, the algorithm is robust with respect to scaling, input parameters and starting designs.

    Notes: A new class of predictor/corrector algorithms is proposed to solve the complex system of differential equations that arises from a Galerkin spatial discretization of the equations of motion in a recent formulation of dynamic vehicle/structure interaction. The applicability of the concept of a building-block vehicle/structure interaction model developed in our previous work - where the vehicle nominal motion is not prescribed a priori, but is part of the unknown motion of the system - is demonstrated through the construction of a simple vehicle model. In the new algorithms, the presence of the accelerations of the vehicle component is eliminated in the predictor structural equations, making these equations different from the corrector structural equations. The special treatment of the predicted axial motion that provides an artificial damping to eliminate unstable oscillations in the numerical results as proposed in the old algorithms is avoided. Accurate results from numerical simulations using the new algorithms are obtained, and there are no unstable oscillations that were observed in some other predictor/corrector schemes. The system energy balance is also better preserved compared with the old algorithms.

    Notes: This paper presents a new method for the direct and accurate evaluation of strongly singular integrals in the sense of Cauchy principal values and weakly singular integrals over quadratic boundary elements in three-dimensional stress analysis and quadratic internal cells in two-dimensional elastoplastic analysis by the boundary element method. A quadratic triangle polar co-ordinate transformation technique is applied to reduce the order of singularity of the singular integrals. Next, a form of Stokes' theorem is introduced in order to remove the singularity in the Cauchy principal value integrals; therefore, the evaluation of these integrals can be carried out by standard Gaussian quadrature. Numerical examples of 2-D elastoplastic problems and a 3-D elastic problem show the effectiveness and efficiency of the method.

    Notes: A numerical method for the solution of inverse heat conduction problems in two-dimensional rectangular domains is established and its performance is demonstrated by computational results. The present method extends Beck's8 method to two spatial dimensions and also utilizes future times in order to stabilize the ill-posedness of the underlying problems. The approach relies on a line approximation of the elliptic part of the parabolic differential equation leading to a system of one-dimensional problems which can be decoupled.

    Notes: Methods are described for adapting a structured grid in response to a numerical solution, so that grid nodes become clustered where ‘solution activity’ is high, the aim being to reduce solution truncation errors without increasing the number of grid nodes employed, or modifying their connectivity. After introducing the concept of ‘equidistribution’, and discussing options for the measurement of solution activity, the paper concentrates mainly on two alternative techniques for producing smooth, regular grids which apply constraints on this equidistribution. The first technique described is based on a spring analogy, and is demonstrated here with examples of two- and three-dimensional inviscid flows, and with two-dimensional viscous flows. The second technique employs a Poisson grid generator with adaptive terms included in the control functions, and is demonstrated with a two-dimensional inviscid flow. A third method is then introduced, termed the LPE method, which allows a compromise to be chosen between grids generated by solving Laplace equations, Poisson equations and equidistribution equations. Since this method is still being developed, results are currently limited and tentative.

    Notes: Bounds on eigenvalues of various finite element systems are analysed by using an element eigenvalue theorem together with the Global Eigenvalue Theorem. Both two dimensional continuum dynamics and heat conduction problems are considered. These bounds provide stable time steps for explict time integration schemes. A reduced eigenproblem at element quadrature point level, with all zero eigenvalues suppressed, is also presented in this paper. The simplified eigenproblem results in simple formulas for calculating the eigenvalues.

    Notes: Based on the assumed element strain fields and the interrelated displacement-rotation interpolations, a four-node (12 dof) quadrilateral C0 finite element, designated as QCCP-2, for the analysis of thick/thin plates is developed in this paper. The four-node C0 plate element presented here possesses a linear bending strain field, and the element stiffness matrices are given explicitly. Therefore, the present four-node C0 plate element is more efficient and accurate than the existing four-node C0 plate elements where the constant strain stiffness matrices are obtained by numerical integration. By the use of the interrelated displacement-rotation interpolations, QCCP-2 is capable of automatically satisfying the Kirchhoff assumption for the case of thin plates. Consequently, QCCP-2 is not only free of shear locking, but also free from the numerical ill-conditioning. Furthermore, QCCP-2 passes the patch test of thin plates. The four-node quadrilateral C0 elements presented here can automatically reduce to the corresponding three-node triangular elements. Several numerical examples are given to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the C0 plate bending element QCCP-2.

    Notes: The severe restrictions of the Babuška-Brezzi stability criteria permit only a limited number of interpolations for velocities (displacements) and pressure to be used for incompressible behaviour. These restrictions preclude the use of many useful elements. We show in this paper how such difficulties can be side-stepped by seeking the steady state solution through the use of various time marching schemes. This permits a simple iterative approach to incompressible (or nearly incompressible) problems of fluid mechanics or solid mechanics and provides a stimulus for the use of such procedures in metal forming flow, etc.

    Notes: A control-augmented structural synthesis methodology is presented in which actuator and sensor placement is treated in terms of (0, 1) variables. Structural member sizes and control variables are treated simultaneously as design variables. A multiobjective utopian approach is used to obtain a compromise solution for inherently conflicting objective functions such as structural mass, control effort and number of actuators. Constraints are imposed on natural frequencies, peak transient displacements and accelerations, peak actuator forces and dynamic stability as well as controllability and observability of the system. The combinatorial aspects of the mixed (0, 1)-continuous variable design optimization problem are made tractable by combining approximation concepts with branch and bound techniques. Some numerical results for example problems are presented to illustrate the efficacy of the design procedure set forth.

    Notes: The lateral hulls of multi-shelled ships such as Catamarans or Trimarans can be considered as rigid solids, or compared to thin walled beams in multi-layered materials for the global statical or dynamical behaviour of the ship. Unfortunately this approximation no longer hold after a detailed study of the hulls.Working in these problems we proceed to a fine analysis of the stress field at the neighbourhood of the linkage shell-arm or of the holes for access input to the hull itself. Analysis with a beam model is inadequate and the shell theory must be more appropriate. Numerous papers have been devoted to shell elements, see References 1 to 8 to mention just a few. Some of them require a reduced or selective integration scheme.9-12 We choose to start from the Ahmad element, 13, 14 which is suitable for moderate thick shells.15.16 The final aim of this paper is to explain how to build up a multi-layered equivalent homogeneous shell element which is both economical and accurate. Some examples will be given and compared with those obtained with the Ahmad finite element.

    Notes: The stiffness matrix in the finite element method for multi-layered materials is generally computed by expressing the strain energy in each layer and adding them together. In order to lower the computing time, which may be prohibitive if the number of layers is high, and to get accurate information on the stresses, especially on transverse shear stresses, we present a new finite element using the Reissner principle. In the first part the case of plates will be detailed: extensions to shell problems will be presented in the second part. The efficiency of the method is tested on a special analytic solution, and some examples are given.

    Notes: Iterative techniques for the solution of the algebraic equations associated with the direct boundary element analysis (BEA) method are discussed. Continuum structural response analysis problems are considered, employing single- and multi-zone boundary element models with and without zone condensation. The impact on convergence rate and computer resource requirements associated with the sparse and blocked matrices, resulting in multi-zone BEA, is studied. Both conjugate gradient and generalized minimum residual preconditioned iterative solvers are applied for these problems and the performance of these algorithms is reported. Included is a quantification of the impact of the preconditioning utilized to render the boundary element matrices solvable by the respective iterative methods in a time competitive with direct methods. To characterize the potential of these iterative techniques, we discuss accuracy, storage and timing statistics in comparison with analogous information from direct, sparse blocked matrix factorization procedures. Matrix populations that experience block fill-in during the direct decomposition process are included. With different degrees of preconditioning, iterative equation solving is shown to be competitive with direct methods for the problems considered.

    Notes: A Newton method for solution of frictionless contact problems is presented. A finite element discretization is performed and the contact constraints are given as complementarity conditions. The resulting equations, which represent the equilibrium of the system, are formulated as a generalized equation. Generalized equations, from the discipline of Mathematical Programming, are a way of writing multi-valued relations, such as complementarity conditions, in a way that is similar to ordinary equations. Newton's method is then used, in a straightforward way, to solve the present non-linear generalized equation, resulting in a sequence of Linear Complementarity Problems (LCP's).

    Notes: The present study is concerned with the physical explanations of the linear and the cubic finite elements for beams and axisymmetric shells through comparisons of their strain energy approximations with those of the Rigid Bodies-Spring Models which are discrete elements suitable for plastic collapse analysis using the concepts of plastic hinges and hinge lines. The established conditions for the equivalence between these two modellings, which are given as the relations between the locations of the numerical integration points and those of the occurrence of plastic hinges, can be conveniently used in the economical plastic collapse analysis of framed structures and axisymmetric shells where the locations of plastic hinge formations are controlled by the movement of numerical integration points. Some numerical results are shown in order to prove numerically the obtained relations and to verify the validity of the proposed shifting technique of numerical integration points, which is identified as ‘the shifted integration technique’ in the present paper.

    Notes: The paper deals with the development of a numerical method for determining Weight Functions in two-dimensional problems. After a short review of some recent numerical techniques an original approach is presented. The method is based on Finite Element calculations with coarse meshes and on the knowledge of some values of the Stress Intensity Factor for one reference loading condition. The validity of the method is demonstrated for a theoretical case and its accuracy and suitability are discussed with reference to practical applications.

    Notes: A general computational technique is developed for the accurate analysis of forced non-synchronous harmonic vibration of linear structures rotating with constant speed about a fixed axis in the inertial space. The structures studied are built up from piecewise uniform straight Rayleigh-Timoshenko beam members having coinciding cross-sectional centres of geometry, shear and mass, and vibrating in coupled tension, torsion, bending and shearing. Hysteretic and viscous dampings in the beam material and in a Winkler-type ambient medium are considered. Rigid bodies and modal bodies and also discrete masses, springs and dampers can be included in the structure. The six coupled scalar partial linear differential equations governing the motion of a loaded beam are established in a corotating local co-ordinate system. A transcendentally frequency-dependent non-symmetric complex-valued 12 × 12 stiffness matrix is derived, over a state-space analogy and an associated eigenproblem, for a harmonically vibrating beam member non-synchronously excited at its ends. This matrix is exact in the sense that no assumed shape functions and no lumped masses are used. The general computational technique is here applied to a simple beam rotating about (1) its longitudinal axis and (2) about a transverse axis. The study clarifies the influence of gyroscopic effects and of material and support dampings on the dynamical behaviour of the beam at different rotational speeds and forcing frequencies. Resonance frequencies are found. Frequency response functions and frequency maps are plotted.

    Notes: A direct boundary element formulation which produces equilibrium satisfaction in the numerical solutions is presented. It consistently originates from the standard boundary integral equation with a simple modification in the fundamental solution and can be applied to general potential and elasticity problems. Since boundary equilibrium is guaranteed for any problem discretization, the procedure is also found useful to generate improved stiffness matrices, which permits combination with finite elements.Some elastostatic examples are included to demonstrate the applicability of the formulation.

    Notes: A new finite element model for the contact/impact problem is presented, and both its static and dynamic implementations are described. In this geometrical non-linear formulation, contact (from node to surface) is simulated through fictitious equivalent pressure along the boundary. Contrary to most existing models, this formulation entails relatively few matrix decompositions and thus is computationally inexpensive. The model is first assessed through some classical contact problems, and is subsequently applied to the fracture mechanics based analysis of a cracked dam under seismic excitation.

    Notes: We show that, for rigid body dynamics, the mid-point rule formulated in body co-ordinates exactly conserves energy and the norm of the angular momentum for incremental force-free motions, but fails to conserve the direction of the angular momentum vector. Further, we show that the mid-point rule formulated in the spatial representation is, in general, physically and geometrically meaningless. An alternative algorithm is developed which exactly preserves energy, and the total spatial angular momentum in incremental force-free motions. The implicit version of this algorithm is unconditionally stable and second order accurate. The explicit version conserves exactly angular momentum in incremental force-free motions. Numerical simulations are presented which illustrate the excellent performance of the proposed procedure, even for incremental rotations over 65 degrees. The procedure is directly applicable to transient dynamic calculations of geometrically exact rods and shells.

    Notes: The paper presents a shell formulation based on the ‘degenerated solid approach’. The theory employs covariant strains and performs explicit integration through the shell thickness. The rigid body motion is exactly represented. The consistent tangent stiffness matrix is evaluated for the four node quadrilateral. It is shown, in the final part, that this type of element, which distinguishes itself by a very simple and easily understandable theory, gives good answers for linear as well as non-linear applications.

    Notes: A method to connect momentum Navier-Stokes equations with the universal law of the wall using the finite element method is developed for turbulent wall flows. This method is based on a domain decomposition of the fluid into subdomains near a solid boundary where the law of the wall is valid. A transmission formulation is introduced to match these regions and a new class of boundary finite element is used. This finite element takes into account the near-wall profile of the velocity and the transmission conditions. Computational results are presented for Poiseuille flow and flow over a backward-facing step.

We present an algorithm, based upon a novel combination of group-theoretic ideas and substructuring techniques, that block-diagonalizes such systems exactly and efficiently. The procedure requires only the structural matrices of a repeating substructure, together with the symmetry modes, which are obtained from symmetry considerations alone. We first present a simple paradigmatic example and then follow with several non-trivial applications involving large lattice structures.

    Notes: Two different methods of assuming independent strain fields are examined for the nine node degenerate solid shell element. In the first case, the assumed strain field is chosen for the local orthogonal co-ordinate systems defined at the Gaussian integration points. In the second case, the independent strain is assumed for a local orthogonal co-ordinate system defined at the origin of the parent co-ordinates. The results of numerical tests involving simple example problems demonstrate that the second method is capable of exactly representing constant stress or moment states even when element geometries are distorted. In addition, both methods lead to a finite element model which is free of locking.

    Notes: A new numerical technique for large deflection elasto-plastic analysis of stiffened plates is presented. The method uses super finite elements which are macro elements having analytical as well as the usual finite element shape functions, specially designed so that only one plate element per bay and one beam element per span are needed. The large deflection theory by von Karman and the von Mises yield criterion and associated flow rule are employed. The governing equations are derived using the principle of virtual work, integrated numerically using Gauss quadrature and solved by Newton-Raphson iteration. Numerical solutions are presented for simple beams and plates, and plates stiffened in one or two mutually perpendicular directions. Good approximations are obtained with only one-element representations of each plate bay or beam span with significant savings in computing time, costs and storage requirements as compared with using regular finite elements.

    Notes: A numerical method is presented for the solution of two dimensional crack problems including the effects of crack kinks and frictional contact between crack faces. The metod is based on an integral equation for the resultant forces along a crack. Coulomb friction between contacting crack surfaces is taken into account. The numerical implementation is demonstrated by considerations of surface and sub-surface piece-wise straight line cracks in a half-plane. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the efficiency and the reliability of the presented method.

    Notes: In this paper, a new procedure for solving 3-D dynamic problems of unbounded foundations in the frequency domain by using BEM is studied. For simulations of wave propagations due to far field effects, a type of infinite boundary element (IBEM) is presented for modelling a 3-D regular or irregular half space. The wave type considered could be compressional, shear or a combination of the two. Through the analysis of the asymptotic behaviour of 3-D fundamental solutions for elasto dynamics, a rather feasible technique for obtaining singular integral coefficients for dynamic problems has been developed. Through the analysis of the dynamic response for a 3-D square foundation under a uniform load distribution, excellent accuracy has been achieved in agreement with previous numerical solutions. Another example-analysis of the dynamic compliance of a rigid square plate on a half space-has also shown very good results. The development of this infinite boundary element provides a powerful tool for dealing with 3-D structure foundation interaction or wave propagation problems for irregular foundations such as arch dam canyons.

    Notes: A perturbation analysis is developed for 1-D shallow water flow over a curved bed for applications such as spillways. The perturbation approach leads to a new formulation of the problem with associated weak integral statement and approximation using finite elements. The flow may exhibit a hydraulic jump in the downstream regime. An artificial dissipation technique is introduced to stabilize the non-linear problem and suppress numerical oscillations. Numerical results demonstrate the performance of the model and compare it with the steep-slope shallow water formulation corresponding to the model with zero curvature.

    Notes: For the analysis of deformation processes the Eulerian approach is usually formulated in material velocities. To describe the die compaction of compressible media, this paper presents an Eulerian simulation method, basically expressed in displacements. The material behaviour is modelled by the theory of elastoplasticity. Frictional interaction with the surroundings is included. As a spatially fixed finite element mesh is applied, rezoning is governed by the process specification and not, as in the Lagrangian approach, by the mesh distortion. The solution scheme, using a Newton-Raphson algorithm, is considered in detail. A consistent iteration procedure is derived. Examples demonstrate the merits of the method developed.

    Notes: Contact-impact algorithms, which are sometimes called slideline algorithms, are a computationally time-consuming part of many explicit simulations of non-linear problems because they involve many branches, so they are not amenable to vectorization, which is essential for speed on supercomputers. The pinball algorithm is a simplified slideline algorithm which is readily vectorized. Its major idea is to embed pinballs in surface elements and to enforce the impenetrability condition only to pinballs. It can be implemented in either a Lagrange multiplier or penalty method. It is shown that, in any Lagrange multiplier method, no iterations are needed to define the contact surface. Examples of solutions and running times are given.

    Notes: This is the first of a two part paper on three-dimensional finite elements with rotational degrees of freedom (DOF). Part I introduces an 8-node solid hexahedron element having three translational and three rotational DOF per node. The corner rotations are introduced by transformation of the midside translational DOF of a 20-node hexahedron element. The new element produces a much smaller effective band width of the global system equations than does the 20-node hexahedron element having midside nodes.A small penalty stiffness is introduced to augment the usual element stiffness so that no spurious zero energy modes are present. The new element passes the patch test and demonstrates greatly improved performance over elements of identical shape but having only translational DOF at the corner nodes.

    Notes: This is the second part of a two part paper on three-dimensional finite elements with rotational degrees of freedom (DOF). Part II introduces a solid tetrahedron element having 3 translational and 3 rotational DOF per node. The corner rotations are introduced by transformation of the midside translational DOF of a 10-node tetrahedron element. To further enhance the element performance a least squares strain extraction technique is also implemented to develop the stiffness matrix with a desired field. The strain smoothing improves performance without causing a loss in generality.As with the hexahedron in Part I, the element stiffness is augmented with a small penalty stiffness to eliminate any possible spurious zero energy modes. The new tetrahedron element passes the patch test and demonstrates much improved performance over the 4-node translational DOF only (constant strain) tetrahedron element.

    Notes: This paper presents the development of a design algorithm for epicyclic gear systems. The criterion on which the design performance is assessed is the maximum tensile stress induced in the fillets of the sun, planet and annulus gears. From an initial set of prescribed real and integer design parameters the finite element method is used to determine the maximum tensile fillet stresses in each gear. An objective function is formulated to represent the total stress in the system by combining the maximum fillet stresses in each component. A sequential procedure is then used to minimize the objective function subject to equality, inequality and integer function constraints.The finite element method is used to evaluate the stresses in the gear teeth and iterative application of the analysis and optimization stages converges to produce a design vector such that the maximum stress produced in all components of the system is minimized.Since the effectiveness of each design is assessed using the finite element method, the factorized stiffness matrix is reused to calculate the design derivatives. This makes the processes very efficient in its use of computer resources.

    Notes: By using cubic B-spline approximations, reasonably accurate solutions are obtained for line-loaded shallow spherical shells with a centre hole within a wide range of values of the geometrical parameter K (0 ≤ K ≤ 400, \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ K = \sqrt {12(1 - v^2)} 2f/h $\end{document}, f = shell rise, h = shell thickness). It was found that the buckling loads Pc as well as the buckling threshold of the geometrical parameter Kc increase monotonically as the radius of the centre hole β increases if the hole edge is reinforced with a rigid ring and the outer edge of the shell is simply supported. However, the effect of the centre hole on Pc decreases rapidly as K increases and becomes negligible for K ≥ 45 and β ≤ 0.4.

    Notes: The following paper describes the incorporation of different constraints into a finite element system by means of matrix operators in conjunction with consecutive corresponding transformations. Instead of increasing the number of equations-as e.g. the Lagrange Multiplier Method10, 14 does-the Matrix Operator Method yields a set of reduced magnitude which can be solved more efficiently. The method will be developed for two classes of constraints: (i) stiff coupling of previously known subdomains and (ii) contact problem between two bodies. The assembly rules to obtain the system matrices are deduced. An application is given by a three-dimensional example of structural analysis in mechanical engineering.

    Notes: The need for adding to the many existing rectangular plate elements is justified and the inclusion of the twist parameter, in the degrees of freedom selected, is shown to be essential. Using a rational choice of parameters to form the deflection functions for a simply supported plate element, a constant term, sixteen degrees of freedom rectangular element is developed which is shown to predict exactly the first mode frequency and mode shape when used in whole plate modelling. The properties of this ‘dynamic’ element are combined with the properties of an existing ‘static’ element to obtain the frequency dependent properties of a ‘blended’ element. It is demonstrated that in order to obtain high accuracy in eigenvalue determination it is necessary to use three separate modellings of the plate using a square element and two rectangular elements which are oriented orthogonally. From 3 × 3 and 2 × 5 modelling, it is shown that the frequencies of the first 20 modes of a simply supported square plate, resulting from matrix eigenvalue determinations are obtainable within one per cent of the exact values. Modes 11 and 18 are determined exactly. Mode shape distortions associated with frequency errors are examined and shown to be minimal for the first 20 modes.

    Notes: A new methodology of evaluation of C0 beam elements is presented. It is shown that, knowing the stiffness matrix of an arbitrary type of element, it is possible to create equivalent equilibrium conditions expressed in the form of one difference equation for a regular beam discretized by these elements. The study of the convergence of one difference equation gives an interpretation of the source of troubles occurring in low-order bending elements which is more convincing than the usually applied consideration of the conditioning of element stiffness matrices. A careful examination of quadratic Mindlin elements provides a very clear explanation of the shear locking essence in the Timoshenko beam. The presented method enables one to identify errors that appear also in the reduced integrated or constrained elements. For each type of analysed quadratic element an adequate difference equation is derived and compared with the exact one. Based on this comparison a simple method of corrections is proposed that completely eliminates the errors associated with the application of C0 bending elements.

    Notes: The dynamic substructure method is extended to linear and non-linear coupling systems. Only those master co-ordinates with non-linear nature (non-linear co-ordinates) are retained. Other slave co-ordinates relating to the linear part (linear co-ordinates) are eliminated by the dynamic substructure method. The dynamic flexibility matrix associated with the linear co-ordinates is first expanded in terms of the fixed interface natural modes. The condensed dynamic stiffness-matrix associated with the non-linear co-ordinates is formed subsequently. The convergence of the condensed dynamic stiffness matrix with respect to the natural modes can be improved by means of matrix manipulations and Taylor series expansion. To find the steady state solutions, the non-linear responses are expanded into a Fourier series. Responses of the linear co-ordinates are related to the non-linear co-ordinates analytically. To solve for the unknown Fourier coefficients, the harmonic balance method gives a set of non-linear algebraic equations relating the vibrating frequency and the nodal displacement coefficients. A Newtonian algorithm is adopted to solve for the unknown Fourier coefficients iteratively. The computational cost of a non-linear analysis depends heavily on the number of degrees of freedom encountered. In the method, the number of degrees of freedom is kept to a minimum and the computational cost is greatly reduced.

    Notes: Boundary integral formulations for the 2D Helmholtz equation involve kernels in the form of modified Bessel functions. Accurate schemes for evaluating integrals of the kernels and their derivatives are presented. Special attention is paid to integrals involving singular and near singular kernels. Both boundary and domain integrals are considered. It is shown that, with the use of series expansion functions for the modified Bessel functions, the boundary integrals can be evaluated analytically in the neighbourhood of the singularity. For domain integrals, the behaviour of the kernels in the vicinity of the singularity is used to construct accurate numerical quadrature schemes. A transient heat conduction problem is formulated as a Helmholtz equation, solved, and compared against analytic solution to demonstrate the effectiveness of these schemes in relation to traditional methods. References are made to previous work to advocate the utility of the boundary integral method for non-linear and time-transient problems.

    Notes: A variational higher-order theory involving all transverse strain and stress components is proposed for the analysis of laminated composite plates. Derived from three-dimensional elasticity with emphasis on developing a viable computational methodology, the theory is well suited for finite element approximations as it incorporates both C0 and C-1 continuous kinematic fields and Poisson boundary conditions. From the theory, a simple three-node stretching-bending finite element is developed and applied to the problem of cylindrical bending of a symmetric carbon/epoxy laminate for which an exact solution is available. Both the analytic and finite element results were found to be in excellent agreement with the exact solution for a wide range of the length-to-thickness ratio. The proposed higher-order theory has the same computational advantages as first-order shear-deformable theories. The present methodology, however, provides greater predictive capabilities, especially, for thick-section composites.

    Notes: A new Petrov-Galerkin method for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is presented. The use of the so-called ‘optimal upwind’ parameter in multidimensions is justified by a time-scale analysis of the relevant physical processes. The resulting procedure circumvents the Babuška-Brezzi condition and allows equal order interpolation for velocity and pressure to be used.

    Notes: Given a list of points defining a domain boundary, a three-stage process is often used to triangulate a domain. First, an appropriate distribution of interior points is generated. Next the points are connected to form triangles. And, finally, the connectivity data are used to reposition the interior points using the Laplacian smoothing technique, thereby usually improving the shapes of the shapes of the triangles. This paper describes a new techniques for mesh improvement - adjusting the connection structure during the second stage of this process. The new scheme, which we call mesh relaxation, consists of a procedure for iteratively making the mesh topology more regular by edge swapping. For each interior edge, a relaxation index is computed that depends on the degrees of its end points and adjacent points. Any edge for which this index exceed a prescribed threshold will be swapped, i.e. replaced by a new edge connecting the adjacent points of the original edge. After all edge swaps are completed, Laplacian smoothing is applied to the mesh. Example show that, when the mesh point density varies smoothly and due care is taken in the vicinity of the boundary, mesh relaxation can dramatically increase the regularity of the mesh and produce improve triangle shapes.

    Notes: This paper discusses an application of a boundary integral equation method (BIEM) to an inverse problem of determining the shape and the location of cracks by boundary measurements. Suppose that a given body contains an interior crack, the shape and the location of which are unknown. On the exterior boundary of this body one carries out measurements which are interpreted mathematically as prescribing Dirichlet data and measuring the corresponding Neumann data, or vice versa, for a field governed by Laplace's equation. The inverse problem considered here attempts to determine the geometry of the crack from these experimental data. We propose to solve this problem by minimizing the error of a certain boundary integral equation (BIE). The process of this minimization, however, is shown to require solutions of certain are proposed. Several 2D and 3D numerical examples are given in order to test the performance of the present method.

    Notes: An explicit expression for the stiffness matrix is worked out for a triangular plate bending element considering the effect of transverse shear deformation. The element has twelve nodes on the sides and four nodes internal to it. The formulation is displacement type and the use of area co-ordinates makes it possible to obtain the shape functions explicitly. Separate polynomials are assumed for transverse displacement and rotations. To obtain the element stiffness matrix no matrix inversion or numerical integration need be carried out and only a few matrix multiplications of low order are necessary. The element, which is initially of thirty five degrees of freedom, can be reduced to a thirty degrees of freedom one by condensation of the internal nodes. An interesting feature of the element developed is that the values of nodal moments computed at a node point, considering different elements surrounding the node, do not vary significantly. Thus the nodal moments can be obtained directly at node points. Also, the element does not give rise to any inconvenience like locking, even for very thin plates. The straightforward approach in formation of the element stiffness will cut down the storage space considerably and will also call for less CPU time, thus making the use of the element well suited to low capacity computers. A number of plate bending problems have been worked out using the present element for different thickness to side ratios and a comparison has been made with the available results. Good accuracy has been observed in all cases, even for a small number of elements.

    Notes: The non-linear response of soft hydrated tissues under physiologically relevant levels of mechanical loading can be represented by a two-phase continuum model based on the theory of mixtures. The governing equations for a biphasic soft tissue, consisting of an incompressible solid and an incompressible, inviscid fluid, under finite deformation are presented and a finite element formulation of this highly non-linear problem is developed. The solid phase is assumed to be hyperelastic, and the stress-strain relations for the solid phase are defined in terms of the free energy function. A finite element model is formulated via the Galerkin weighted residual method coupled with a penalty treatment of the continuity equation for the mixture. Using a total Lagrangian formulation, the non-linear weighted residual statement, expressed with respect to the reference configuration, leads to a coupled non-linear system of first order differential equations. The non-linear constitutive equation for the solid phase elasticity is incrementally linearized in terms of the second Piola-Kirchhoff stress and the corresponding Lagrangian strain. A tangent stiffness matrix is defined in terms of the free energy function; this matrix definition can be applied to any free energy function, and will yield a symmetric matrix when the free energy function is convex. An unconditionally stable implicit predictor-corrector algorithm is used to obtain the temporal response histories. The confined compression mechanical test of soft tissue in stress relaxation is used as an example problem. Results are presented for moderate and rapid rates of loading, as well as small and large applied strains. Comparison of the finite element solution with an independent finite difference solution demonstrates the accuracy of the formulation.

    Notes: A simple approach to the numerical simulation of mechanical systems consisting of rigid and flexible bodies is presented. The mechanical system may consist of rigid bodies, different types of flexible bodies, joints and actuators and may have arbitrary topological structure with kinematical loops. The equations of motion are formulated as a large sparse system of equations in absolute co-ordinates as well as relative co-ordinates. These equations are numerically integrated as a system of differential-algebraic equations using modern numerical methods.

    Notes: A formulation for the dynamic analysis of flexible systems, composed of slender bodies that can be accurately modelled by beams is presented in this paper. A new set of state variables, composed of Cartesian co-ordinates of points and unit vectors, is introduced to define the beam with respect to an inertial frame. A non-linear Timoshenko beam finite element capable of handling finite displacements with small linear elastic strains is developed. This allows relative displacements between material points of a single beam to be arbitrarily large. Since deformations are not explicit variables, there is no need to define a moving reference frame attached to each flexible body. Instead, deformations are obtained through a displacement-deformation relation based on finite-displacement beam theory. The differential equations of motion are obtained using the Lagrange equations. A symmetric, constant and sparse mass matrix is obtained in the inertial frame. Constraints are introduced with a penalty formulation and the resulting set of ordinary differential equations is integrated with Newmark's family of methods. The whole formulation is extremely simple and the results demonstrate the capabilities and efficiency of the proposed method for dynamic simulation, even when relative displacements are finite in a single beam or coupling effects are significant.

    Notes: An extended kinematic graph concept and a variational-vector calculus approach are employed to develop a new recursive formulation for the dynamic analysis of flexible multibody systems. The extended graph concept introduced defines frames and transformations between frames as nodes and edges, respectively, rather than the more traditional body and joint convention. Kinematic relationships between adjacent flexible bodies are derived, using joint relative co-ordinates and a state vector notation that represents both translational and rotational components of velocity. Deformation kinematics are formulated in terms of modal co-ordinates, under small deformation assumptions. Joint relative co-ordinates are decoupled from deformation modal co-ordinates in both kinematic relations and in the recursive dynamics algorithm, leading to a significant reduction in the dimension of matrices that must be inverted. Dynamic analysis of a flexible closed-loop spatial robot is performed to illustrate the efficiency of the algorithm.

    Notes: This paper presents a systematic method for deriving the minimum number of equations of motion for spatial flexible multibody systems. Relative kinematics are developed using relative joint co-ordinates and relative joint velocities to formulate a minimum number of equations of motion. The present method takes advantage of the simplicity of the absolute co-ordinate formulation and computational efficiency of the relative joint co-ordinate formulation. The system equations of motion are first formulated in terms of a coupled set of absolute reference co-ordinates and elastic modal co-ordinates. These equations are transformed to the joint co-ordinate space by use of a velocity transformation matrix including the elastic modal velocities. A computer algorithm is proposed and extended to closed loop mechanisms. One example of a flexible vehicle is presented and the results are discussed to illustrate the computational efficiency of the method.

    Notes: In this paper, issues related to the dynamic modelling of constrained deformable bodies that undergo large rigid body displacements are discussed. Particular attention is focused on finite element formulations. It is shown that the use of nodal co-ordinates and shape functions to describe the finite rotation of some of the commonly used finite elements leads to a linearization of the kinematics and dynamic relationships. The structure of the non-linear dynamic equations that govern the motion of deformable bodies that undergo large displacements is examined. Comments on the finite element formulation of the invariants of motion, the definition of the generalized forces and moments in flexible body dynamics and the computational strategy used for the automatic generation of the equations of motion are made. The computer formulation of the joint constraints between deformable bodies as well as the numerical algorithms currently used in many of the general purpose computer programs that are based on the augmented formulation are discussed. A decoupled joint-elastic acceleration recursive formulation is also presented. This formulation leads to a small system of acceleration equations whose dimensions are independent of the number of the elastic degrees of freedom of the system. In this paper, the coupling between the displacements of the deformable bodies is classified as kinematic, inertia and elastic. In view of this classification, comments on the validity of using the updated finite element Lagrangian formulation and the 4 × 4 transformation matrix in the dynamic analysis of flexible multibody systems are made. The coupling between the finite rotation and the wave motion in constrained deformable bodies is also discussed.

    Notes: Vibrational analysis calculations have been conducted in an effort to understand the origins of apparently anomalous relationships reported between kH/kT and kD/kT kinetic isotope effects. The actual isotopic substitutions used in previous work are more complex than a simple comparison between H/T and D/T isotope effects. The relationships between the actual isotope effects determined in these studies amount to tests of two standards of conventional isotope effect theory, the rule of the geometric mean (or the lack of isotope effects on isotope effects) and the Swain - Schaad rule. Model calculations illustrate the importance of violations of the rule of the geometric mean (over Swain - Schaad deviations) arising in models that incorporate both explicit reaction-coordinate coupling of two isotopic sites and reaction-coordinate tunneling. Implications for experimental studies of turneling using apparent Swain - Schaad exponents are discussed.

    Notes: Electrochemical and spectrophotometric studies of the pyridoxal-5′ -phosphate hexylamine Schiff base (PHSB) in strongly basic media were carried out. The equilibrium constant and rate constants of the formation and hydrolysis of the unprotonated imine from the unprotonated pyridoxal-5′ -phosphate and free amine were determined by linearscan cyclic voltammetry. The acid-base dissociation constant of the imine group was obtained by spectrophotometric measurements. Absorption bands for the free imine and the conjugate acid are characterized by a log-normal distribution. These studies are for general application to the quantitative characterization of non-enzymatic model compounds.

    Notes: The tendency of ion-pair intermediates generated by treatment of trans-10-bromo-10, 11-dihydro-11-hydroxy-5H-dibenzo [a, d] cycloheptene (5) with HBr to release Br2 giving 5H-dibenzo [a, d,] cycloheptene (1) has been evaluated. The observed 9:1 ratio between ion-pair collapse to the trans-dibromide (7) and Br2 release to olefin 1, as compared with the 3:7 ratio found with the 5H-dibenz [b, f] azepine-5-carbonyl chloride system, has been interpreted as indicating a much lower propensity for reversibility of ion-pair formation in the bromination of 1. The structural parameters obtained by x-ray diffraction of the dibromide 7 show for this compound an angle strain at C-10 and C-11 analogous to that found in trans-10, 11-dibromo-10, 11-dihydro-5H-dibenz [b, f,] azepine-5-carbonyl chloride. Olefin 1 adds Br2 in 1,2-dichloroethane at 25°C according to a third-order rate law, with k3 = 30(3) M-2 s-1. About 10% of 5-bromo-5H,-dibenzo [a, d] cycloheptene, arising from collapse of a dibenzo [a, d] tropylium ion intermediate (9), is formed in this reaction besides the expected trans-dibromide 7. Spectral evidence for the formation of 9, arising by rearrangement of a first formed weakly bridged ionic intermediate in the reaction of 1 with Br2, is presented. the results obtained with the 5H-dibenzo [a, d,] cycloheptene system have been rationalized on the basis of the formation of very weakly bridged intermediates having a much lower tendency to revert back to olefin and Br2 with respect to the corresponding symmetrically bridged bromonium ions.

    Notes: Treatment of o-3-(but-3-enyloxy)benzene (1) with anions -SPh, -PPh2 and -PO(OEt)2 in ammonia, acetonitrile or dimethyl sulphoxide gives both direct substitution and cyclized products. The formation of the latter confirms the intermediacy of the o-3-(but-3-enyloxy)phenyl radical (2) and confirms that the reactions follow the SRN1 pathway. The kinetics of the coupling of the aryl radical 2 were determined by comparison with the known rate of cyclization of 2. Similar experiments with the neopentyl bromide, 6-bromo-5,5-dimethylhex-1-ene, and its 3-oxa derivative also gave cyclized and uncyclized products, thus confirming that the SRN1 mechanism applies to the reactions. Approximate rate constants for the coupling of a neopentyl radical with the nucleophiles -SPh and -PPh2 have thus been determined.

    Notes: Photolysis of biphenyl-3,4′ -diazide in a rigid glassy matrix at 77 K yields quintet state biphenyl-3,4′ -dinitrene with zero-field splitting parameters of |D/hc- = 0.153 cm-1 and |E/hc| = 0.019 cm-1 determined by electron spin resonance spectroscopic studies. Curie plot studies are consistent with assigning the quintet to be the ground state in this species. This finding confirms qualitative connectivity-based predictions for this general connectivity type of openshell system, and is in qualitative agreement with spectral INDO-CI computational predictions for both planar and twisted geometries of the dinitrene.

    Notes: A series of diterpenoids whose C-ring was an α-bromocyclohexanone showed a discontinuity in the relationship between the Br—C—C=O torsion angle and the Br…O contact distance at about 50°, below which the Br…O distance remained effectively constant at about 3.0 Å. This effect is caused by the non-compressibility of the van der Waals radii of the Br and O atoms. Analysis of the parameters for all compounds in the Cambridge Data File containing an α-bromocyclohexanone ring confirmed this phenomenon. Once the Br…O distance approaches 3.0 Å, the Br—C—C and C—C=O angles are forced open to accommodate the Br…O compression strain as the torsion angle is further reduced. An approximate value of the Br…O distance, d in Å, can be estimated for any torsion angle, ø, by the empirical equation d2 = R - S cos φ + T cos2 φ where R = 11.73, S = 3.62 and T = 0.75. There is a linear relationship between the Br…O separation and both the infrared vibration frequency v and the ultraviolet absorption wavelength δmax of the C=O group: the greater the distance, the lower is the frequency v and longer the wavelength δmax. Thus measurement of the ultraviolet and infrared spectra of a compound containing an α-bromocyclohexanone system can yield information about the Br…O distance and hence the conformation of the six-membered ring. There are also systematic trends in the effect on the spectroscopic properties of the keto group that accompany changing the halogen from fluorine through to iodine. When the halogen is axial, its electronegativity has a maximum influence on the C=O vibration frequency by a ‘through-bond’ inductive process. When the halogen is equatorial, it exerts a steric compression on the non-bonded electrons in the 2p orbital of the oxygen atom. This enhances hybridization to the sp2 state and this simultaneously strengthens the C=O bond and enlarges the n → π* energy gap. This ‘through-space’ influence is simply a process of steric compression, dependent on the size of the halogen atom. It accounts well for all of the systematic trends in both infrared and ultraviolet frequencies of the C=O group when the halogen is equatorial and eclipses the C=O bond.

    Notes: The previously developed general method (IDME), which includes calculation of electrostatic and solvation effects on conformational equilibria, has been extended to molecules containing double bonds and conjugated systems. It was applied in connection with MM2 studies to the calculation of the charge distributions and dipole moments, and to the conformational energies of some β-substituted cyclohexenes, exo-methylenecyclohexanes and benzocycloheptenes. Conformational equilibria and dipole moments were well calculated. It was concluded that electrostatic interactions do not play a major role in determining conformational preferences in these compounds. On the other hand, the energies of the preferred conformations of the ten-membered ring in (E)-3β-acetoxy-5,10-seco-1(10)-cholesten-5-one are poorly calculated without the IDME procedure, and fairly well with it.

    Notes: Two mechanistic pathways have been proposed for halogen atom transfer from the benzylic positions of halomethylarenes to triorganotin radicals. These are direct atom abstraction, which might involve an extremely polar transition state, and single electron transfer followed by bond cleavage. AM1 semi-empirical calculations have been utilized to model the rate-determining step of these processes. A wide range of related families of compounds have been studied, including substituted halomethylbenzes, selected halomethyl-substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and oxygen- and nitrogen-containing chloromethyl-substituted heteroaromatic systems. Although these calculations are relatively simple, the present results corroborate the view that chlorine and bromine atom transfer from the benzylic position to triorganotin radicals involves a direct atom abstraction in the rate-determining step whereas reduction of the corresponding iodides proceeds via an electron-transfer mechanism.

    Notes: Hydrolysis of dimethyl aryl phosphates, (MeO)2P(O)OAr where the ArO group is derived from N-methyl-8-hydroxyquinolinium or 4-hydroxy-(N,N,N-trimethylanilinium) ion, proceeds with the cleavage of the P—OAr and Me—O bonds. The effect of external factors on the relative contributions of those two reaction pathways was studied. The increase in temperature favours, owing to the difference in activation entropies, the reaction at carbon. The addition acetone to the aqueous reaction medium slows down the reaction at carbon more rapidly than the reaction at phosphorus, indicating higher hydration requirements of the dealkylation transition state. In water-triffuoracetic acid mixtures only the P—OAr bond cleavage is acid catalysed; the catalytic effect is superimposed on the general, decelerating medium effect. Specific nucleophilic catalysis was demonstrated for the Me—O bond fission by thiosulphate ion (ca 60-fold acceleration), and for the reaction at phosphorus by fluoride ion (ca 500-fold acceleration).

    Notes: 1,2-Bis(phenylseleno)benzene reacted with equimolar amount of bromine to yield a trigonal bipyramidal (TB) adduct, in contrast to the molecular complex (MC) structure of selenanthrene with bromine. Whereas the structure of 1,4-(PhSeBr2)2C6H4 was (TB, TB) at the two selenium atoms, that of the 1,2-derivative was demonstrated to be (TB, MC), the first example of an MC structure of PhSeC6H4Y with Br2 [Y = 2-PhBr2Se(TB)]. Both electronic and steric effects of the group must play an important role in MC formation. Rapid structural exchange in this tetrabromide, (TB, MC) ⇄ (MC, TB), was also observed.

    Notes: Empirical linear relationships between standard Gibbs free energy, ΔG298°, and parachor and between standard entropy, S298°, and parachor are presented for the aliphatic series H(CH2)nX with X = CH3, CH=CH2, C≡CH, Cl, OH, SH, SCH3 and SC2H5. In the series with X = OH and SH significant deviations of points for n = 4 and 5 are observed. INDO quantum-chemical analysis points to the formation of cyclic conformers of butan-1-ol, pentan-1-ol and their corresponding thio analogues. The formation energy of the cyclic conformers (higher for thiols than for alcohols) is proportional to the sum of deviations from the linearity of the points under discussion.

    Notes: Solvation is the main driving force of electrophilic bromination since it is impossible to obtain a bromonium ion from bromine and alkene in the gas phase, whereas it is a very fast reaction in solution. The role of a protic solvent in this addition was investigated experimentally by extended Winstein-Grunwald relationships, kinetic solvent isotope effects and R, the rate ratios in two solvents of similar ionizing powers but different nucleophilicities. It is shown that electrostatic medium effects and electrophilic assistance to bromide ion departure are the main rate-determining factors of the reaction. These two contributions are roughly independent of the double bond substituents. Nucleophilic solvent assistance to positive charge development is also found; however, it provides only a small acceleration, the magnitude of which depends on alkene structure. This nucleophilic solvent involvement is annulled when crowded substituents inhibit approach of the solvent to the cationic part of the transition state or when positive charge is delocalized by conjugated electron-donating groups. These several solvent roles are identical in nature and in magnitude with those observed in heterolytic solvolysis. In halogenated solvents, the driving force of bromination arises from catalysis by a second bromine molecule which assists heterolysis of the bromine-bromine bond, leading to the bromonium-tribromide ion pair. Similar halogen catalysis occurs also in some solvolyses. Finally, return is also found in both reactions; reversible formation of bromonium ions is observed when their nucleophilic attack, the productforming last step, is made energetically difficult either by steric inhibition or by poor nucleophilicity of the trapping nucleophiles. Similarities and differences between electrophilic bromine addition and limiting solvolysis are discussed in terms of respective intermediate stabilities and heats of formation.

    Notes: Direct irradiations of 2-chloro-6,7 : 8,9-dibenzotricyclo [3.2.2.02,4] nona-6,8-diene (5-Cl) were conducted in cyclohexane, acetic acid and wet acetonitrile. The products are 1-methylfluoranthene (8) in all three solvents, the allylic chlorides 8-chloro-7-methylene-2,3 : 5,6-dibenzobicyclo [2.2.2] octa-2,5-diene (3-Cl) and 7-chloromethyl-2,3 : 5,6-dibenzobicyclo [2.2.2] octa-2,5,7-triene (2-Cl) in acetic acid and acetonitrile and solvolysis product amides in wet acetonitrile. Compound 5-Cl had previously been shown to be the product of triplet sensitization of 2-Cl and 3-Cl, so that the singlet reaction reverses that of the triplet. The formation of 8 from 5-Cl was quenched with piperylene, whereas that of the allylic chlorides was not. Quantum yields of products and singlet lifetimes in the three solvents were measured. The solvent effects are discussed. Deuterium-labeling results on the formation of 5-Cl from 2-Cl and of 8 from 5-Cl are reported.

    Notes: A ‘cone angle’, θR, is defined for an alkyl group (R), which is proposed as a measure of the steric effect exerted by the group. The θR values for some 57 groups have been calculated mathematically by constructing the corresponding Corey - Pauling - Koltun molecular models. The variation in θR with the bulk of a group is satisfactory. However not all types of alkyl groups can be accommodated in this cone angle approach. In the case of the groups for which the cone angle can be measured, correspondences between θR and the two existing steric parameters (Taft's Es scale and Dubois' E′s scale) have been established. For some 23 alkyl groups θR has been used to explain the variation in the rate constant of the base-catalysed hydrolysis of RCOOEt with the nature of R. Our studies independently substantiate the basic assumptions of the Taft - Ingold hypothesis that, while the base-catalysed ester hydrolysis is mostly controlled by the steric and electronic effects of the R group, the acid-catalysed one is controlled almost solely be the steric effect.

    Notes: The alkaline hydrolysis of nine para-substituted phenyl esters of para-substituted benzoates was studied in the presence and absence of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micelles. The second-order rate constant for alkaline hydrolysis in CTAB micelles (K2m) was calculated using a pseudo-phase ion-exchange model. the substituent effect on the second-order rate constant in the aqueous phase (k2w) and on k2m was analysed using Hammett's σ ρ plots. The calculated ρ values in micelles were 0.8 unit. larger than those in water. The effective low dielectric constant in the micellar surface may be responsible for the general effect of increasing the sensitivity of reactions to the electronic effect of substituents in micelles.

    Notes: The intrinsic mechanism of circumambulatory rearrangements of 5-bromo-5-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetramethoxycarbonylcyclopentadiene, 5-bromo-1,2,3,4 5-pentamethoxycarbonylcyclopentadien and 5-bromo- 1,2,3,4,5-pentaphenylcyclopentadiene due to sigmatropic shifts of bromine over the cyclopentadiene ring was proved, using the dynamic 13C and 1H NMR technique, to be governed by successive intramolecular 1,5-sigmatropic shifts. Semi-empirical AM1 and MINDO/3 calculations of reactions paths performed for fluoro-, chloro- and bromocyclopentadienes are in accord with the conclusion of a preference for a 1,5- over a 1,3-shift reaction path of halogen migration over a cyclopentadiene system. Intramolecular 1,5-sigmatropic shifts of chlorine in 5-chloro-5-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetramethoxycarbonylcyclopentadiene with the free energy barrier of ΔG298+ = 26.1 kcal mol-1 were studied using 1H NMR spectroscopy.

    Notes: Decarboxylation of 6-nitrobenzisoxazole-3-carboxylate ion and cyclization of o-3-halopropyloxyloxyphenoxide ion (PhY7) (Y = Br, I) are accelerated by aqueous cationic and zwitterionic micelles. For cationic micelles the rate enhancements (kM′kW′) increase with increasing bulk of the surfactant head groups but are largest for decarboxylation. There are good linear free energy relationships between micellar effects on these reactions and the plots of log kM′ for cyclization against log kM′ for decarboxylation have slopes of 0.46 and 0.64 for Y = Br and I, respectively. Surfactants that have twin tail or tri-N-alkylbenzyloxy head groups do not fit the relationship. Despite mechanistic differences between decarboxylation and cyclization (an intramolecular SN2 reaction), similar factors control micellar effects on these reactions. In the absence of surfactant there is only a qualitative relationship between free energies of activation of cyclization and decarboxylation in different solvents.

    Notes: The classification of aromaticity criteria is studied. New aromaticity criteria are developed and discussed. A statistical analysis of such criteria is presented and compared with a similar analysis of the recent literature. It is shown that aromaticity is at least a two-dimensional phenomenon. The classification of the compounds depends on the type of criteria included in the analysis.

    Notes: Hartree - Fock calculations were performed to investigate the structure and relative stabilities of complexes between halogen cations and first- and second-row bases. It is shown by means of both a qualitative perturbation molecular orbital treatment and a topological analysis of the electronic charge density that second-row bases present enhanced halogen cation basicities compared with first-row bases. In this respect the results predict that although the fluorine cation basicity of water is smaller than its proton affinity, the fluorine cation basicities of SH2, thioether, phosphine and trimethylphosphine are considerably higher than their proton basicities. Similarly, phosphine and trimethylphosphine should have chlorine cation basicities greater than their proton affinities, in contrast with ammonia and trimethylamine. The results also show that fluorine and chlorine cation basicities are more sensitive to methyl substitution than proton affinities.

    Notes: The rates of the reaction of N-alkyl-4-cyanopyridinium (RCP) ions [alkyl = CH3 (MCP), n-C4H9 (BCP), n-C8H17 (OCP), n-C12H25 (DCP)] with OH- ion in water are independent of chain length and RCP concentration up to 0.001 M. The ratios of the concentrations of the reaction products, N-alkyl-4-pyridone (P) and N-alkyl-4-carboxamidopyridinium (A), P/A, are similar for all substrates. In water the P/A ratios increase with pH, reaching a plateau value of ca 2 at pH ≥ 13. Added salts slightly decrease the reaction rate and do not affect the P/A ratios. In aqueous solutions, addition of dioxane increases both rates and P/A ratios. Micelles of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide; CTAB) and 3-(N,N-dimethyl dodecyl ammonium)propane-1-sulphonate (SDP) catalyse the alkaline hydrolysis of OCP and DCP and increase the yield of pyridone with BCP, OCP and DCP. In micellar CTAB and SDP the attack of OH- on RCP occurs almost exclusively at the 4-position of the pyridinium ring. Sodium dodecyl sulphate micelles inhibit the reaction and produce small changes in the P/A ratio. The regiochemical selectivity produced by micelles, leading to a preference for the attack of OH- at the pyridinium ring, was rationalized in terms of the low effective dielectric constant at the micelle-water interface.

    Notes: The structures of a series of heterosubstituted methylenecyclopropenes and methylenecyclopropanes were optimized at the HF/6-31G* level. All methylenecyclopropenes are planar except for the silicon analogue, which is bent at both C-3 and Si. The planar silicon structure is a transition state. The relative aromaticity of these compounds were evaluated using the C-1—C-3 bond length, the integrated charge on C-3 and the heteroatom, and delocalization energy. Second-row systems have slightly larger delocalization energies than their first-row counterparts, owing to their larger polarizability. Using these criteria, methylenecyclopropene and the silicon analogue are not aromatic and the N, O, P and S analogues are moderately aromatic. The planar silicon analogue is antiaromatic and bends from planarity to reduce this antiaromaticity.

    Notes: The alcoholyses of ethyl fluorosulphate in methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl and n-pentyl alcohols in the initial concentrations and temperature ranges of (1-10) 10-3 M and - 15.00 to 22.00 °C, respectively, were studied. The reactions follow pseudo-first-order kinetic laws up to at least ca 75 per cent ester conversions. At 10°C the experimental rate constant for ethanolysis is similar to that of ethyl triflate but much smaller than for its hydrolysis. The reactivity of the ester is ca 104-105 times higher than that of alkyl halides and benzenesulphonates. In alcohol-benzene and alcohol-acetone mixtures the ΔH≠ and ΔS≠ activation parameters are only slightly affected by the media composition. The effect of the ‘lyate ion’ on the kinetics of these reactions were investigated and the effects of changes in the dielectric constant of the media were evaluated. It is concluded that the alcoholyses of the ester fulfil the requirements for predominant SN2-type mechanism, where the reaction ground states are more polar than the corresponding transition states.

    Notes: Polycrystalline pyrazole, imidazole and benzotriazole were investigated by 1H and 2H NMR spectroscopy. In addition to the usual broad line of the 1H NMR signal due to the dipole-dipole interaction, a significantly narrowed component (δν = 1-2 kHz) of a complex triplet structure was detected in all three compounds. To interpret this observation, a mechanism with virtually complete averaging of the dipole-dipole interaction for a small part of the sample protons is suggested. The mechanism is based on proton interaction with the unpaired electron of a short-lived radical of the type Az· or (H-Az·-H).

    Notes: Experimental gas-phase acidities of 2-oxopropanaloximes, XCH2COCH=NOH (X = H, CH3S, CH3SO, CH3SO2; compounds 1-4), were determined by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) spectrometry. The values are δ Gacid° = 1401, 1381, 1360 and 1351 kJ mol-1 for 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Molecular orbital calculations using the semi-empirical AM1 method provided information on the geometry and relative energy of neutrals species 1-4 and their conjugate bases, together with charge distributions and entropies of deprotonation. It is demonstrated that the proton abstraction occurs preferentially at the oxime function; the formation of an enolate as a conjugate base is unfavourable by 70-140 kJ mol-1. The large variation of the gas-phase acidities for 1-4 is explained in terms of the field/inductive empirical substituent constant σF. The variation of solution acidities appears to be comparatively strongly attenuated. This attenuation is attributed mainly to charge delocalization in the anion, which was confirmed by charge density calculations.

    Notes: First-order rate constants for the hydrolytic depurination of 2′-deoxyinosine and its various (dien)Pt(II) ion complexes were measured over the acidic pH range. The rate profiles obtained indicate that the uncomplexed nucleoside and its N1-(dien)Pt(II) complex are depurinated via mono- and di-protonated species, whereas the N7-(dien)Pt(II) and N1, N7-di(dien)Pt(II) complexes exhibit significant spontaneous hydrolysis, which competes with a markedly retarded acid-catalysed reaction. Rate constants for the various partial reactions were calculated and the results were employed to explain the effects that (dien)Pd(II) ion exerted on depurination rates of the same compounds. Similar measurements were carried out with the N1, N7-di(dien)Pt(II) complex of 2′-deoxyadenosine in order to further the understanding of the previously reported rate-enhancing effect of (dien)Pd(II) ion on the depurination of 2′-deoxyadenosine.

    Notes: The orientation of benzoic acid and terephthalic acid on alumina was ascertained by IR measurements. Benzoic acid was chemisorbed as a carboxylate anion with a vertical conformation of the benzene ring (0 〈 θ 〈 1.0) and as a mixture of the anion and the acid (1.0 〈 θ). Terephthalic acid was chemisorbed as a mixture of monocarboxylate anion (hydrogenterephthalate) and dicarboxylate anion (0 〈 θ 〈 0.3), as the monocarboxylate anion with a vertical conformation of benzene ring (0.3 〈 θ 〈 1.0) and a mixture of the monocarboxylate anion and terephthalic acid (1.0 〈 θ). The carboxyl group of expected hydrogenterephthalate adsorbed through the carboxylate anion on alumina (θ = 0.8 : 0.37 mmol g-1 alumina) readily reacted with dimethyl sulphate to form monomethyl terephthalate selectively.

    Notes: The reactions of 1-chloro- and 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzenes with aniline and 4-methylaniline in dimethyl sulphoxide are not base catalysed. When the nucleophile is 2-methylaniline, the reaction of the fluoro compound is base catalysed whereas that of the chloro compound is not. The reactions of 1-bromo-2-fluoro- and 1-bromo-2-chloro-3,5-dinitrobenzenes with both aniline and 2-methylaniline are not base catalysed. These results indicate that, in certain cases, the incidence or absence of base catalysis in aromatic nucleophilic substitution (SNAr) reactions in dipolar aprotic solvents results from an interplay of steric and electronic factors as they affect the magnitude of the (k2 + k3 [B])/k-1 ratio.

    Notes: Addition (Add.) vs reduction (Red.) products in the reactions of substituted benzophenones, acetophenone and fluorenone with ‘EtMgBr’ were compared in diethyl ether, 1,2-dimethoxyethane and tetrahydrofuran. Plots of log (Add./Red.) vs σ-values or the oxidation potentials of ketones showed characteristic upward curves depending on the polarity of the solvents. The results are discussed on the basis of both the combined effects of the stability of the monomeric radical ion pair and the dimeric radical ion pair derived from ketone and ‘EtMgBr’, and the well known Schlenk equilibrium of ‘EtMgBr’ in solutions.

    Notes: Cationic micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride, bromide and mesylate (CTACl, CTABr, CTAOMs) speed reactions of OH- with phosphinate and thiophosphinate esters: Ph2PO.OPh (1a), Ph2PO.OC6H4NO2-p (1b), Ph(i-Pr)PO.OC6H4NO2-p (1c), Ph2PO.SEt (2a), Ph2PO.SPh (2b), (EtO)2PO.SPh (2c) and (EtO)2PS.OC6H4NO2-p (Parathion, 3). First-order rate constants go through maxima with increasing [surfactant]. The rate - surfactant profiles are fitted quantitatively in terms of a kinetic model that treats the distribution of OH- between aqueous and micellar pseudo-phases in terms of coulombic and non-coulombic ion-micelle interactions. Second-order rate constants at the micellar surface are lower than in water by factors that range from 0.035 for 1a to 0.7 for 1c. The thiophenyl derivative (2b) is more reactive than the corresponding phenoxy derivative (1a) and it is more reactive than the corresponding thioethyl derivative (2a). Parathion (3) is the least reactive substrate in both water and micelles.

    Notes: Carbon and deuterium kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) on the isomerization of methyl isocyanide were calculated by using the geometries and force fields obtained with MNDO, AM1 and PM3 Hamiltonians. These theoretical KIE values were compared with the corresponding experimental values. None of the hamiltonians used proved to be superior to any of the others. The best agreement for the carbon isotope effect was obtained by using the PM3 method; however, the deuterium isotope effect obtained by this method gave the poorest fit to the experimental data. The opposite is true when the MNDO Hamiltonian was used.

    Notes: Core-electron energies for sulphur in a series of 2-substituted thiophenes have been used to investigate the relationship between electronic substituent parameters as developed by Taft and Topsom and by Charton. Initial- and final-state energies are analysed in terms of familiar substituent effects, such as field, delocalization and polarizability. The results show that the data correlate equally well with both sets of parameters and that there are many common features between the two methods. Both agree that resonance delocalization contributes significantly to the initial state, but has virtually no effect on the final state. In connection with this investigation we have also correlated the parameters for 31 substituents that are parameterized in the two approaches. The results of this more general study indicate some real differences between these and suggest that neither of the parameterizations incorporates all the electronic effects.

    Notes: Rates of oxidation of cyclohexanol by dimethyl sulphoxide in conjunction both with acetic anhydride and with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide have been measured with variation of both temperature and pressure. Activation volumes were found to be -25 and -34 cm3 mol-1, respectively, and the absence of an α—d PKIE was noted. The reaction mechanism is discussed in the context of these values.

    Notes: 4-Cyano-1-(7-carboxyheptadecyl)pyridinium bromide (CCHP) was synthesized using standard procedures. The rates and product distribution of the reaction between OH- ion and CCHP are very similar to those previously obtained with alkyl-substituted 4-cyanopyridinium ions. The effect of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide micelles on the rate and product distribution of CCHP indicated that the cyanopyridinium ring of this compound is distal to the surface of the micelle. CCHP constitutes a probe for ionic composition in the vicinity of positively charged micelles.

    Notes: The structures of eleven sulfide compounds including methanethiol, ethanethiol, dimethyl sulfide, ethyl methyl sulfide, di-tert-butyl sulfide, thiacyclopentane, thiacyclobutane, 5-thiabicyclo [2.1.1] hexane and 7-thiabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane have been calculated to agree with experimental data, along with the vibrational spectra of the first three of these. The heats of formation of 24 sulfides (including mercaptans) have also been calculated to agree with experimental data. In general, the force field for sulfides seems to be similar in accuracy with that for hydrocarbons.

    Notes: Thermodynamic proton ionization constants, TpKa, of several 4-acyl-substituted pyrazol-5-ones [acyl = trifluoroacetyl (HPMTFP), acetyl (HPMAP), hexanoyl (HPMHP)] were determined in various dioxane-water mixtures at 25 and 35 ± 0.1°C. The TpKa values were determined by glass-electrode potentiometry and refined by using the extensive weighted least-squares FORTRAN program TPKA. Both extrapolation and leastsquares methods were used to obtain TpKa values in pure water (0%). All three acyl derivatives are weak monoprotic acids with TpKa values between 2.5 and 3.9, following the order HPMTFP 〈 HPMAP ≤ HPMHP. The TpKa values do not vary linearly with the reciprocal of the dielectic constant of the medium; however, a plot of TpKa versus the mole fraction of dioxane, n2, is linear at a given temperature. Values of standard free energy (ΔG°), enthalpy (ΔH°) and entropy (ΔS°) changes associated with their protolytic equilibria were also calculated. Temperature, medium and substituent effects are briefly discussed.
