The dynamic behavior of a magnetic fluid droplet adsorbed to magnetized needlepoint in alternating magnetic field was studied with a high speed video camera system. The directions of alternating magnetic field were parallel and opposite to static magnetic field of magnetized needlepoint. It was found that the surface of magnetic fluid droplet responds to the external magnetic field in elongation and contraction. The frequency of magnetic fluid droplet oscillation was exactly same of the external magnetic field. The shape and instability oscillations of the magnetic fluid droplet were revealed experimentally.

Abstract Three-intensified-sensor color high speed video camera system with a cubic three-way beam-split prism and three optical filter holders has been developed. One of three image sensors can be assigned for the measurement of velocity and the others for that of temperature. Simultaneous measurements of temperature and velocity of sprayed particles are tried with this camera for understanding of the formation mechanism of spray coatings. The possibility of measuring the velocity of individual particle in plasma spraying is discussed for behavior analysis of sprayed particles with three-intensified- sensor color high speed video camera system. Furthermore the possibility for simultaneous measurements of temperature and velocity of individual sprayed particles is examined.

This study has investigated the nature and source of the vibrating and scattering behavior of roof tiles with the aim of providing a better insight to the mechanism. The 100 roof tiles were set up on 10 lines and 10 lows on the pitched roof in the downstream of the flow from the wind tunnel. These experiments were followed by series of tests where the slope angle of the roof tiles was changed. The vibrations of the roof tiles were simultaneously measured by the two accelerometers, and the motions of the vibration and scattering were observed by the high-speed video camera. The frequency response function and coherence function of roof tile were measured by impact hammer test under no flow condition. Just before scattering of the roof tiles, both vibrations of higher frequency mode and vibrations of lower frequency mode appeared simultaneously in roof tiles. The values of the higher frequencies were corresponding to the values of resonant frequencies of the roof tiles. It was thought that the scattering of roof tiles was influenced by the vibration of the lower frequency mode. The frequencies of the vibration were measured by the high-speed video camera system. The values of the lower frequencies were 10 Hz ∼ 20 Hz. The mechanism of scattering of roof tiles could be understood by means of the information from the accelerations and the images of roof tiles.

The major objective of this study is to investigate whether oral administration of eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) has any preventive effect on endotoxin-induced microcirculatory damage of rat small intestine. EPA in a daily dose of 300 mg/kg was orally given to male Wistar rats for 3 wk. Submucosal microvessels of the ileum were observed by intravital microscopy equipped with a high-speed video camera system after the intra-arterial infusion of endotoxin at a dose of 2 mg.kg-1.h-1. The number of sticking leukocytes was significantly increased at 30 min after the treatment of endotoxin especially along the smaller branch of intestinal venules. It reached the maximal plateau at 45 min after treatment. The pretreatment of EPA significantly attenuated the increase in sticking leukocytes induced by endotoxin. A platelet-activating factor (PAF) antagonist 2-[N-acetyl-N-(2-methoxy-3-octadecylcarbamoyloxy propoxycarbonyl) aminomethyl]-1-ethylpyridinium chloride (CV-6209) significantly prevented the increased leukocyte sticking to the same extent as EPA treatment. Thirty minutes after endotoxin infusion, red blood cell (RBC) velocity was significantly decreased in both arterioles and venules. RBC velocity appeared to be continuously decreased thereafter and reached its minimum value at approximately 60 min. EPA treatment was revealed to prevent the decrease in RBC velocity of microvessels induced by endotoxin. CV-6209 also significantly attenuated the decreased RBC velocity. The remarkable elevation of PAF content in the ileal mucosa as observed by endotoxin infusion was also significantly attenuated by administration of EPA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
