  • The present study attempts to explore the first appearance 8nd subsequent development of %cosine hvdroxvlase (TH)-containing neurons in the rat brain from embryonic day (E) 10.5 to the neonate. To increase the senti노ivity and resolution power, a double bridge peroxidase-anti-peroxidase technique was employed for cellular localization of TH. In situ hybridization histochemistw with synthetic TH oligomer (30-mer) codinB TH was also used to detect TH mRNA. TH-containing neurons were first detected at E11.5 in the intermediate zone of prosencepha1on and mesencephalon. At this stage, TH-immunoreactive neurons were small, ovoid bee and emitted their fibres into their immediate surroundings. From this stage, TH-immunoreactive neurons increased in their number and underwent migration and cell differentiation. At E15.5, the distribution pattern of the maior groups of TH neurons was similar to that of adult catecholaminergic groups, and at E19.5 the external laver of median eminence showed TH-immunoreactive processes.

  • Research for the synthesis of high-temperature polymers by the photochemical method has been carrying out. The use of cheap and available compounds (viz. benzene, its alkyl, aryl and halogen substitutes, furan and maleic anhydride) subject to ultra violet irradiation resulted in a single stage quantitative yield of about 40 new polymers: polyimide films, enamel insulation, molding materials. At present experimental & industrial lots of wire have been produced. Polymer insulation possesses temperature exploitation range (from -l00$^{\circ}C$ to +300$^{\circ}C$ ) without significant changing of properties. As a result, new polyimide lacquers for production of a wide number of technical articles, such as polyimide films, fibres, enamel-wires, press-materials have been synthesized. An application field of the polyimides in membrane technology, printing plate and optic electronics manufactures has been outlined.

  • This paper investigates the compressive fatigue behaviour of polypropylene fibre reinforced self compacting concrete with Granite Sawing Waste (GSW). An experimental programme was conducted to obtain the fatigue lives of fibre reinforced self compacting concrete (FRSCC) at various stress levels. The stress ratio was kept constant as 0.3. Compressive fatigue test was conducted on 60 cubic specimens with 100mm edge length and 0.1% of polypropylene fibres at a frequency of 0.05Hz. The test results indicate that the fatigue lives of concretes containing granite sawing waste follow the double-parameter Weibull distribution. The fatigue strength equations have been developed based on different probabilities of failure.

  • Radioisotopes and their related techniques have recently been applied for scientific conservation works of cultural property and resulted many excellent findings or conservation data which could never be achieved by means of other techniques. Radiocarbon dating have widely been applied for dating the antique of organic origin, whereas the determination of radioactive contents in metal, ceramics, environmental soil, and classical objects could be able to afford many useful informations on the age, genuiness, and archeological significances as it had been produced. Trace quantity of contents of each antique have successfully been analyzed by means of radioactivation analysis or radio active tracer techniques, which could afford important technical data and results for tile conservation of each object. Radiography have also been applied for detecting the internal defects of metal objects and furthermore $\beta$-and ${\gamma}$-ray radiography were proved to be effective for such thin material as textile, painting, and fibres. In this article the detailed principle and procedures of each technique were presented so that the society could be able to make efforts to familiarize all concerns with these modern trends of the conservation techniques of cultural property.

  • The odd spherical non-commutative tori $\mathbb{S}_{\omega}$ were defined in [2]. Assume that no non-trivial matrix algebra can be factored out of $\mathbb{S}_{\omega}$, and that the fibres are isomorphic to the tensor product of a completely irrational non-commutative torus with a matrix algebra $M_{km}(\mathbb{C})$. It is shown that the tensor product of $\mathbb{S}_{\omega}$ with the even Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_{2d}$ has the trivial bundle structure if and, only if km and 2d - 1 are relatively prime, and that the tensor product of $\mathbb{S}_{\omega}$ with the generalized Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_{\infty}$ has a non-trivial bundle structure when km > 1.

  • Recently, in order to reduce the spalling of high strength concrete under fire, the addition of organic fibres to high strength concrete has been investigated. In this study, the effect of fiber length and specimen size on the spalling and temperature distribution in high strength concrete specimen was experimentally investigated. Three HSC specimens measuring $305{\times}305mm$, $500{\times}500mm$ and $700{\times}700mm$ with the fiber were prepared. The fiber length was 6mm and 10mm. As a result, it appears that when the remaining ratios(by weight) of fibre at $300^{\circ}C$ and $350^{\circ}C$ are less than 80% and 50%, respectively, the spalling of high strength concrete is prevented.

  • A cheallenge in the aerospace field is to design new composites satisfying specific and sometimes conflicting properties. The key steps are ⅰ)the understanding and the control of the reaction between the reinforcement and the embedding matrix, ⅱ) the achievement of a coherent and robust matrix. The problems encountered to prepare particulate, 1D, 2D and 3D reinforced composites using polymeric are discussed. Emphasis is given to the control of the micro/nanostructure using Raman microspectrometry and depth-sensing microindentation, in order to get information on the micromechanics and fiber structure simultaneously, within ceramic (CMC's) and metal matrix (MMC's) composites.

  • A theoretical model for shear strength evaluation of fibrous concrete beams reinforced with stirrups is proposed. The formulation is founded on the theory of plasticity and the stress field concepts, generalizing a known plastic model for calculating the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete beams, to the case of fibrous concrete. The beneficial effect of steel fibres is estimated taking into account the residual tensile strength of fibrous concrete, by modifying an analytical constitutive law which presents a plastic plateau as a post-peak branch. Around fifty results of experimental tests carried out on steel fibrous concrete beams available in the literature were collected, and a comparison of shear strength estimation provided by other semi-empirical models is performed, proving that the numerical values obtained with the proposed model are in very good agreement with the experimental results.

  • This study investigated quantitative changes in the spaces between and within myofibrils and the impact of high and low voltage electrical stimulation on muscle ultrastructure as seen in electron micrographs. In addition, the relationships of these spaces and the impact to meat tenderness were investigated. The degradation of myofibrils during aging appeared to be localized across the muscle fibre. Structural deterioration of muscle fibres was evident 1 day post-mortem, involving the weakening in the lateral integrity of the myofibrils and Z-disc regions. Meat tenderisation, as shown by objective measurements, coincided with these increases in degradation, as assessed by the sum of the gaps between and within myofibrils. The results showed that the total size of gaps between and within myofibrils can be used as an indicator of meat tenderization during aging, but that ultrastructural alteration in electrically stimulated muscle had little relationship with meat tenderness.
