abstract The explicit expression of the long-period WWSSN calibration curve can be obtained solving the differential equations of the seismograph system in terms of ew and identifying the characteristic equation to a product of polynomials of the second degree. The coefficients of these polynomials are the equivalent constants. These and a scale factor can be obtained from the calibration curve. The frequency response of the seismograph system is fully determined by these elements provided that the reduced motor constant and the calibration current are known. The explicit knowledge of the seismograph partial constants is not necessary. Newton-Raphson's method is generally efficient to obtain the elements from the calibration curve, but it may fail some times. Levenberg's method (slightly modified) and also simple step reduction can be helpful in such cases. The unknowns can be obtained either freely or under the constraint that some of the partial constants have the values assigned to them. The latter may be convenient when the behavior of parts of the system is affected by some trouble.

SUMMARY Since 1949 about 10,000 urinary corticoid analyses have been performed routinely in our laboratory. The method used for this purpose was described in 1950 (Sprechler). We determine the corticoids which can be extracted from the urine with chloroform immediately after acidification to pH 1. The extract is washed with sodium hydroxide and water, a Girard separation is performed, and finally the reducing power of the ketonic fraction is measured by means of the phosphomolybdic acid reagent reaction. During the last few years two other chemical reactions have been used for comparison: The formaldehyde and the Porter-Silber method. After a thorough examination of the above methods a standard technique was followed. In the formaldehyde method a microdiffusion in a Conway unit was used instead of distillation of the formaldehyde following the oxidation with periodic acid. The calibration curve was corrected for loss of material by taking the standard doses of DOC through all the procedures of the method. A micromodification of the Porter-Silber method was chosen. Furthermore attempts were made to determine how specific the chromatographic procedure is in the determination of steroids in urinary extracts. For this purpose the Florisil column was used, and the technique described by Nelson & Samuels was followed. Finally we have investigated the glucuronide-bound corticoids in urine in a smaller series of objects.

In this paper, mathematical model of nonlinear vibration problems with fluid flows through pipelines have been developed. Using the Bubnov–Galerkin method for the boundary conditions, the resulting nonlinear integro-differential equations with partial derivatives are reduced to solving systems of nonlinear ordinary integro-differential equations with both constant and variable coefficients as functions of time.A system of algebraic equations is obtained according to numerical method for the unknowns. The influence of the singularity of heredity kernels on the vibrations of structures possessing viscoelastic properties is numerically investigated.It was found that the determination of the effect of viscoelastic properties of the construction material on vibrations of the pipeline with a flowing liquid requires applying weakly singular hereditary kernels with an Abel type singularity.

AbstractWe consider a new class of inverse problems on the recovery of the coefficients of differential equations from a finite set of eigenvalues of a boundary value problem with unseparated boundary conditions. A finite number of eigenvalues is possible only for problems in which the roots of the characteristic equation are multiple. The article describes solutions to such a problem for equations of the second, third, and fourth orders on a graph with three, four, and five edges. The inverse problem with an arbitrary number of edges is solved similarly.

AbstractThe relative intensities ratios for the determination of the relative amounts of alpha and beta phases in silicon nitride and the relative amounts of delta yttrium disilicate (Y2Si2O7) and nitrogen apatite [Y5(SiO4)3N] are reported. These constants were determined using an iterative method applicable when the pure phases are not easily prepared. In addition, a calibration curve was obtained for the quantitative measurement of free silicon in silicon nitride over the range 0 to 0.3% by weight of Si.

This paper presents dynamic analysis of a three stage planetary gear reducer for operate a tower crane. Ordinary and planetary gears have been designed respecting the coaxial, neighboring and mounting conditions. Harmonic analysis has been processed to identify frequency response for displacements, strains and deformations. The aim of the study was to determine critical frequencies to avoid mechanical resonance phenomenon. The obtained results are based on the superposition method for solving the systems of differential equations resulting from the analysis with finite elements.
