Modelling of urban drainage systems is becoming an increasingly important aspect of the management and operation of drainage systems. An important feature of the modelling process is the techniques used in the modelling of both free surfaces and pressurized flow and the different results which alternative techniques will predict. The predicted hydrographs from three models, i.e. ILSAX, SWMM and PIPENET, are compared for situations where free surface and pressurized flow conditions exist in the network. Also discussed will be the theoretical basis for each of the routing techniques employed by these models.

Presented are the results of an investigation into the magnitude of the terms in the full dynamic wave equation of motion and the influence of neglecting terms upon the predicted hydrograph propagation. A pipe Froude number is proposed as a criteria for selection of the terms in the equation of motion to be included for accurate prediction of hydrograph propagation.

View description>>
Cellular material retained on screens used to filter aspirated bone marrow for future autologous marrow transplantation was studied using long-term culture techniques in 20 consecutive patients. All patients had marrow aspirate and biopsy specimens that were normal histologically. Cultures from five patients grew malignant cells similar to those of the known underlying malignancy. Two types of culture methods were used in these studies. Method I consisted of a long-term bone marrow culture system which predominantly favors adherent cells, and Method II consisted of a suspension type culture system favoring expansion of mononuclear cell types. These findings suggest that tumor cells are reinfused more often at the time of autologous bone marrow transplantation than has been previously suspected. Although the clinical significance of these findings is not known, it is clear that culture techniques combined with special stains and molecular probing will allow the improved detection of occult tumor cells in bone marrow from patients undergoing autologous marrow transplantation. These observations emphasize the need for a comprehensive study of histologically normal autologous marrow using culture techniques to determine the frequency of occult involvement by viable malignant cells and the clinical implications of these findings.

The highly malignant and metastatic RAW117-H10 cell line was developed by in vivo selection from the Abelson leukemia virus induced parental RAW117-P lymphoma. In this study we have characterized these cell lines with regard to their expression of lymphocyte and macrophage differentiation antigens, adherence, phagocytic properties, binding of various lectins, binding of antibodies to glycolipid asialo-monoganglioside, and the role of butanol extractable cell surface molecules to determine if any of these cell surface properties are associated with the malignant potential of RAW117-H10 cells. The only major difference in immunological phenotypes between RAW117-P and RAW117-H10 cells was an increased expression of Thy-1 molecules by the latter. However, the highly malignant RAW117-H10 cells bound significantly less concanavalin A, Ricinia communis agglutinin, succinylated wheat germ agglutinin, and particularly anti-asialomonoganglioside than their parental counterpart and were resistant to natural killer cell mediated cytolysis. Removal of butanol extractable cell surface molecules significantly decreased the malignancy of RAW117-H10 cells and increased their susceptibility to natural killer cell mediated cytolysis. The butanol treated RAW117-H10 cells regained high in vivo malignancy when recultured for 3 days to permit regeneration of their cell surface components. The butanol extracted RAW117-H10 cells still expressed high levels of Thy-1 indicating that this most probably represented 'inappropriate' antigen expression. Since the expression of lymphocyte differentiation antigens did not correlate with the malignant behavior of the cells, we postulate that these antigenic differences merely represent phenotypic variation. The decreased malignant potential of the butanol treated RAW117-H10 cells did correlate with increased cell surface anti-asialomonoganglioside binding (glycolipid) and increased natural killer cell susceptibility.

We investigated in phosphorus (P) status of 12 well-drained to moderately well-drained soil profiles along an east-west transect in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria, by determining available P estimated by the methods of Bray and Kurz no. 1, Bray and Kurtz no. 2, Olsen and Truog, and the various P fractions. Total P in the six profiles of soils developed on Coastal Plain sands (CPS) ranged from 281 to 1469 ppm mean, 821), and total P in the four profiles of soils developed on Meander Belt deposits (MBD) and Sombreiro Warri deposits (SWD) ranged from 63 to 293 ppm (mean, 133). The two profiles in the transitional zone between CPS and SWD had total P of 326 to 595 ppm (mean, 441). Organic P ranged from 11 to 338 ppm and constituted 3 to 44% of total P. Inactive inorganic P accounted for 9 to 65% of total P. The relative abundance of the various active inorganic P forms was, in decreasing or der, Fe-P, Al-P, and Ca-P, except in three of the profiles of MBD-SWD region, where Ca-P was nearly equal to or slightly higher than Al-P. The results showed high availability of P in CPS soils, medium availability of P in the transitional zone, and low P in the MBD and SWD regions. The distribution of P fractions indicated a low degree of development of the soils, especially the MBD and SWD soils. Total P was significantly correlated positively with percentage of clay and negatively with pH and percentage of sand. Fe-P and Al-P had significant correlation with total P, percentage of sands, percent-age of clay, and available P extracted by the methods of Bray and Kurtz no. 1, Bray and Kurtz no. 2, and Truog. © 1987 The Williams & Wilkins Co.

Phosphorus (P) sorption at equilibrium concentrations of 0.1–2 ppm in 0.01 M CaCl2 by 42 samples of highly acidic surface layers of Ultisols and Inceptisols from three major geomorphological regions of the Niger Delta of Nigeria, West Africa, conformed to the Langmuir isotherm. Langmuir sorption maxima and sorption at 0.2 ppm equilibrium P concentration ranged from 100–767 μ P/g soil and 30–240 fig μ P/g soil, respectively, indicating that the soil samples have low to medium P fertilizer requirements. No significant difference in sorption capacities among the soils of the three geomorphological regions or the two soil orders was noticed. Sorption capacities were significantly correlated with percentages of clay and silt, surface area, and different forms of Fe and Al, but not with pH or organic matter. Multiple regression equations relating P sorption to exchangeable Al, amorphous Al, amorphous Fe, and crystalline Fe are presented, and the relative contributions of these factors in the soils of the three geomorphological regions are discussed. © 1987 The Williams and Wilkins.

This paper discusses various ARMA digital lattice filters. The design procedures of these filters have been proposed as various forms. However, if we notice the orthogonal method based on a linear estimation theory, all design procedures are treated with an understandable coherent form. First, this paper examines the ARMA lattice filter whose section increases either AR order or MA order by one independently. The filter section is regarded as elementary. In order to derive this section, the subspace used in the orthogonal projection method is carefully processed with the other subspaces. In other words, this paper shows the implicit dependency in each elementary section. In addition, this paper develops the ARMA filter associated with the Mullis-Roberts' algorithm. This algorithm estimates the AR parameters for the ARMA reference model. Thus, it used to have nothing to do with the construction of the lattice filter. However, if an appropriate subspace is selected, we can design a Mullis-Roberts' algorithm type ARMA lattice filter. In this paper, all relations in the design procedures become clear to understand them easily. © 1987, Acoustical Society of Japan. All rights reserved.

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate, in a preliminary fashion, that even though the causes are many, the dynamics of underachievement show a common core of cognitive and motivational factors which are interrelated and which are found in all underachievers. The study involved three groups of selfreferred Year 10 students of mathematics from the lower two of the four classes in the Year 10 at a Sydney high school. Although these students' assessed IQs on Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) forms ML and MQ ranged from 98 to 130+, their performance, overall, was below expectations when the study commenced. Remedial assistance totalling six hours (nine 45-minute sessions) over a six-week period produced significant improvements in achievement as well as in self-esteem and general study habits. © 1987 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.

This paper presents a simplified method for the analysis of reinforced concrete frames subjected to sustained service loads. The finite element model used takes into account the non-linearities due to cracking and the time-dependent effects due to creep and shrinkage. It is based on methods widely used by designers at present to analyse short-term linear behaviour. The method is suitable for implementation on microcomputers for applications in the design of medium-rise reinforced concrete frames. Predictions of the behaviour of laboratorytested frames are shown to be in good agreement with measured values. © 1987, Thomas Telford Ltd. All rights reserved.

An attempt was made to study the physical and biological clogging during artificial recharge with an experimental model that simulates the artificial recharging practice by considering factors such as effective infiltration rate, media size and depth, and inundation period. Recharging was investigated experimentally in terms of suspended solids (SS) removal, 3-day biological oxygen demand (BOD3) removal and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal at different sand sizes and infiltration rates. To understand the physical phenomenon involved, the effect of suspended solids concentration and initial infiltration rate on cumulative discharge was studied and verified using a simple mathematical model. The simulated cumulative discharge profiles were comparable with the experimental profiles. This indicates that an empirical relationship can be successfully used to predict the biological clogging at different recharge rates. The effect on headloss was also discussed. © 1987 D.

A new model is proposed for deep-bed filtration of Brownian particles. The model incorporates the unit-collector concept for estimating particle deposition rates and the application of the effective medium approximation (EMT) theory for predicting the instantaneous pressure drop across the filter bed.

The authors address the problem of the determination of the fingers of a multifingered gripper grasping an object. The system is statically indeterminate and an optimal solution for this problem is desired for force control. A fast and efficient suboptimal method for computing the grasping forces is presented. This method is based on the superposition of finger-interaction forces on equilibrating forces. An interaction force is defined as the component of the vector difference of the finger contact forces at any two fingers along the line joining the two contact points. They are computed based on the assumption that the normals at the point of contact pass through the centroid of the contact points and are therefore independent of the actual geometry of the object. The contact interaction is modeled as a point contact. The problems associated with making the algorithm independent of the object geometry are explored.

This study aims at providing a foundation for the understanding of the dynamics of quadrupedal locomotion. The motivation for such an undertaking is the design, and eventual construction of a fully autonomous vehicle possessing a level of agility competitive with that observed in nature. Specifically, two types of ungulate gait are analysed - a walk and a trot. The primary aim is to characterize the locomotory functions of the individual joints. To this end, video tape was used to capture the movements of the animal on level terrain. In addition, ground reaction forces were measured and a segmental free body analysis was carried out to compute the corresponding joint intersegmental forces and muscle moments. These, together with considerations of energy and power, provide the beginnings of an experimental database upon which the above goals may rest.
