β¦ Synopsis
In order to assess fatigue crack propagation, one of the most-used laws is due to Elber. This involves, however, accurate measurement of the opening load of the crack which is closed at its tip. We propose a new ultrasonic method based on wave diffraction by the crack tip and a record of the echodynamic. It accurately detects and measures both closure and opening of cracks (corresponding lengths and loads). It is able to do that both near the lateral faces and in the bulk of the specimen. It is well suited to thick CT specimens.

We have developed an improved assay method to measure sphingomyelinase activity and to detect this enzyme separated on polyacrylamide gels. The assay of sphingomyelinase activity involved immobilizing \(\left[\mathbf{N}\right.\)-methyl \(\left.{ }^{14} \mathrm{C}\right]\) sphingomyelin on polyvinyld
In this paper the general approximate method is used for calculating the stress intensity factor of the 9th grade disk of 31-25-2 type steam turbine with a radial crack in the corner of the key-slot and the fracture toughness of the material of the disk 34CrNi3Mo steel is determined.

Left superior vena cavae draining to the left atrium have traditionally been treated with surgical ligation. Advances in cardiac catheterization have made transcatheter closure a viable alternative to surgery. We report on an innovative method using a Greenfield filter and Gianturco coils for closur
