1. The campaniform sensilla on the legs of Periplaneta are similar in action to those on the palps, and respond to strains in the cuticle. 2. They are arranged in groups at the joints, with parallel orientation of the sensilla of a group. 3. Tests with various chemical substances show a complete absence of sensitivity to olfactory stimuli. 4. A theory is given of the mode of action of the sensilla in terms of a mechanical model based on their observed structure. Each group of parallel sensilla should act as a unit, responding to those forces which have a compression component of shear in the direction of their long diameters. 5. This theory makes it possible to predict the behaviour of the sensilla from their anatomical arrangement. Most if not all the groups on the legs are so arranged as to be sensitive to the forces present when the insect is standing on the ground. 6. The sensilla probably provide the basis for the sense of contact pressure postulated by Holst (1935), Hoffmann (1933), Crozier & Stier (1928-9), Fraenkel (1932) and others. 7. Comparison of this proprioceptive mechanism with that of the vertebrate limb reveals an absence of qualitative sensitivity that may have an important bearing on the question of the evolution of behaviour.

As both the geometric and stiffness changes may occur in atherosclerosis, it is necessary to estimate respective contribution from structural and material characteristics in the stiffness index. In this study, we employ the primary mechanical model based on one of elastic shell theory, Love’s theory and look upon a blood vessel as a ring model. Furthermore in order to confirm validity of the model, the experiments were carried out on artificial tubes. The circulating circuit is applied as the circulatory system of human body including tubes, and water is designated as the working fluid of the circulating circuit. Experimental data are applied for mechanical model and mechanical parameters are identified using Downhill simplex method as the inverse problem. In this study stiffness index and damping ratio were identified and the result of Love’ theory was compared with measurement data and Donnell’s theory. The result shows that present study can confirm the measurement data with the fine approximation.
