Published 1990Staff ViewISSN: 1077-3118Source: AIP Digital ArchiveTopics: PhysicsNotes: An analysis of thin rod flexural acoustic wave gravimetric sensors is presented. The diameter of the thin rod is much less than a wavelength. The lowest order flexural acoustics mode, F11, is of interest. For small added masses, the calculated mass sensitivity is −1/(2ρa), where ρ is the density and a is the radius of the thin rod. Measurements of velocity dispersion of the F11 mode in 21-μm-diam gold wires are shown to agree well with the theoretical calculation. Devices based on thin rods are shown to potentially have the same advantages as plate-mode gravimetric sensors.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1989Staff ViewISSN: 1077-3118Source: AIP Digital ArchiveTopics: PhysicsNotes: Spatial distribution profiles of leaky surface acoustic wave velocity (VLSAW ) and attenuation across the diameters of cladded glass fibers are presented. The profiles are obtained by using a novel V(x,z) analysis with a reflection scanning acoustic microscope operated at 775 MHz, and are compared with optical refractive index profiles. Optical fibers with different dopants and dopant concentrations have been investigated. The role of acoustic property profiles in the design of optical and acoustic fibers is outlined.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1089-7550Source: AIP Digital ArchiveTopics: PhysicsNotes: In an effort to relate microstructure, mechanical properties, and magnetic properties as a tool for nondestructive testing, the coercivity and permeability of fully pearlitic rail steels having different compositions, microstructures, and hardnesses were measured between −200 and 600 °C. A pronounced peak in coercivity, Hc, is generally observed at the Curie temperature of the cementite phase, Tc(Fe3C), ≈200 °C for plain carbon rail steels. This peak shifts rapidly to lower temperatures with small additions of chromium and with heat treatment (annealing). This is interpreted as being due to a lowering of Tc(Fe3C) which results even for small Cr concentrations (≈1%) because of preferential partitioning of carbide-forming elements such as Mn and Cr to the carbide phase. As a result, coercivity at room temperature is found to be strongly dependent on the presence of chromium additions and on thermal history and relates poorly to microstructure and hardness. Above Tc(Fe3C), however, Hc is found to vary more consistently with pearlite morphology and with mechanical properties such as hardness.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1041Keywords: carvedilol ; labetalol ; antihypertensive agent ; vasodilation ; beta-adrenoceptor blockade ; clinical trialSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: Chemistry and PharmacologyMedicineNotes: Summary A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group trial of 8 weeks' duration was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of once-daily carvedilol with that of twice-daily labetalol in patients with essential hypertension. A total of 61 patients (13 women and 48 men) aged 26–64 years (mean ± SEM = 49.6 ± 1.3 years) were enrolled. All patients had mild to moderate hypertension, defined as diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 95–114 mmHg at the end of a 1- to 2-week single-blind placebo period. In all, 30 patients received carvedilol (25 mg once daily) and 31 received labetalol (200 mg twice daily). The initial dose could be doubled for both treatment groups at day 29 if the DBP was 〉 90 mm Hg on days 28 and 29. Hemodynamic parameters, including supine and standing DBP, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and heart rate (HR), were measured and safety was evaluated at baseline and at days 14, 28, and 56 at the end of the dosing interval. In all, 3 patients on carvedilol and 4 patients on labetalol required upward dose titration after 1 month. At the end of the trial, 26 of 30 carvedilol-treated patients and 27 of 31 labetalol-treated patiens (87% of each group) had a supine DBP of ⩽ 90 mm Hg. On day 56, mean decreases in supine DBP, SBP, and HR in the carvedilol group were 18.5 and 23.4 mmHg and 11 beats/min, respectively, from baseline values of 101.6 and 163.8 mmHg and 80 beats/min, respectively. Corresponding values for the labetalol group were 17.7 and 25.9 mmHg and 12 beats/min from baseline values of 101.2 and 165.8 mmHg and 79 beats/min. Decreases in all hemodynamic parameters were also measured after days 14 and 29 in both treatment groups. There were no significant differences between treatment groups at any time point. The safety profiles of both drugs were good. No severe adverse events were reported and no patient withdrew due to adverse events. In conclusion, the safety and efficacy of once-daily carvedilol (25 or 50 mg) were comparable with those of twice-daily labetalol (200 or 400 mg) in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1998Staff ViewISSN: 1439-6327Keywords: Key words Isometric contraction ; Muscle oxygenation ; Near infrared spectroscopySource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Abstract To determine the external force that induces maximal deoxygenation of brachioradialis muscle 32 trained male subjects maintained isometric contractions using the elbow flexor muscles up to the limit time (isotonic part of the isometric contraction, IIC) and beyond that time for 120 s (anisotonic part of the isometric contraction). During IIC each subject maintained relative forces of either 25% and 70% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), 50% and 100% MVC, or 40% and 60% MVC. Muscle oxygenation was assessed using a near infrared spectroscope, and expressed as a percentage of the reference value (ΔO2rest) which was the difference between the minimal oxygenation obtained after 6 min of ischaemia at rest and the maximal reoxygenation following the release of the tourniquet. During IIC at 25% MVC, muscle oxygenation decreased to 17 (SEM 3)% ΔO2rest, then it levelled off [25 (SEM 1)% ΔO2rest]. After the point at which target force could not be maintained, reoxygenation was very weak. During IIC at 40%, 50%, 60%, and 70% MVC, the lowest muscle oxygenation values were obtained after 15–20 s of contraction and corresponded to −18 (SEM 6), −59 (SEM 12) −31 (SEM 6), and −29 (SEM 6)% ΔO2rest, respectively. For the contraction at 100% MVC, the lowest oxygenation [−19 (SEM 9)% ΔO2rest] was obtained while force was decreasing (69% MVC). During the anisotonic part of the isometric contractions, the greatest reoxygenation rate was obtained after 50% MVC IIC (P 〈 0.001). Our results showed that during isometric elbow flexions between 25% and 100% MVC, there was no linear relationship between external force and muscle oxygenation, and that the maximal deoxygenation of the brachioradialis muscle was obtained at 50% MVC.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
