Abstract Mathematical models of finite deformation of a rolling viscoelastic cylinder in contact with a rough foundation are developed in preparation for a general model for rolling tires. Variational principles and finite element models are derived. Numerical results are obtained for a variety of cases, including that of a pure elastic rubber cylinder, a viscoelastic cylinder, the development of standing waves, and frictional effects.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is a usual phenomenon in a plant both under a normal and stressed condition. However, under unfavorable or adverse conditions, ROS production exceeds the capacity of the antioxidant defense system. Both non-enzymatic and enzymatic components of the antioxidant defense system either detoxify or scavenge ROS and mitigate their deleterious effects. The Ascorbate-Glutathione (AsA-GSH) pathway, also known as Asada–Halliwell pathway comprises of AsA, GSH, and four enzymes viz. ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase, dehydroascorbate reductase, and glutathione reductase, play a vital role in detoxifying ROS. Apart from ROS detoxification, they also interact with other defense systems in plants and protect the plants from various abiotic stress-induced damages. Several plant studies revealed that the upregulation or overexpression of AsA-GSH pathway enzymes and the enhancement of the AsA and GSH levels conferred plants better tolerance to abiotic stresses by reducing the ROS. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of the research on AsA-GSH pathway in terms of oxidative stress tolerance in plants. We also focus on the defense mechanisms as well as molecular interactions.

A simple (one-channel) or a complex (three-channel) vigilance task was administered with or without threat of shock to a large group of flight students. It was found that a larger absolute decrement was obtained in the complex task, but the relative decrements were equivalent for both. One-channel monitoring was better overall than three-channel monitoring in the non-stressed condition. Stressed subjects performed better than nonstressed, and this enhancement was greater for three-channel monitoring.

Polyamines (PA) are small organic polycations found in all living organisms. Putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd), spermine (Spm) and thermospermine (T-Spm) are the most abundant PAs in plants. Of the polyamines (PAs) plant contains at least two types of tetraamines; spermine (Spm) and thermospermine (T-Spm) and they seem to have different functions in plants. The experiment was conducted to eludicate the stress responsive roles of Spm and T-Spm using wild ecotype (Col-0) and three different knockout mutants (spms, acl5 and spms/acl5) of Arabidopsis, differing in the amount of spermine and thermospermine content. First exogenous pretreatment of both tetraamines showed their different effects on plant phenotype including root and shoot length, cholorophyll content both under normal and salt stressed condition. The effect of exogenous T-Spm was more effective than Spm in plant growth and stress tolerance. The mutants varying in endogenous tetraamines content were also found to be different in response to stress (salt, osmotic and ionic) condition. Growth inhibition of spms mutant seedlings was minimum in compare to other mutants and wild type, probably due to higher amount of T-Spm content. Further to differentiate the tissue specific expression of tetraamines, histochemical GUS assay was performed using SPMS and ACL5 promoter:: GUS transgenic plants and the results indicate that the two tetraamines; spermine and thermospermine may play some different and specific role in respect to tissue specificity and stress responses.J.
