Numerical methods of meiotic analysis were used to describe genomic affinities in triploid Medicago hybrids. No differences in affinity were observed among the genomes of M. sativa subsp. sativa, M. sativa subsp. caerulea, and M. falcata. This study establishes the feasibility of using meiotic analysis in cytotaxonomic studies in Medicago.Key words: alfalfa, chromosome pairing, cytotaxonomy, numerical analysis.

The paper presents some theoretical and practical issues, particularly useful to users of numerical methods, especially finite element method for the behaviour modelling of the foam materials. Given the characteristics of specific behaviour of the foam materials, the requirement which has to be taken into consideration is the compression, inclusive impact with bodies more rigid then a foam material, when this is used alone or in combination with other materials in the form of composite laminated with various boundary conditions. The results and conclusions presented in this paper are the results of our investigations in the field and relates to the use of LS-Dyna program, but many observations, findings and conclusions, have a general character, valid for use of any numerical analysis by FEM programs.

The aim of this paper is to present an application of high-order numerical analysis methods to a simulation system that models the movement of a cylindrical-shaped object (mine, projectile, etc.) in a marine environment and in general in fluids with important applications in Naval operations. More specifically, an alternative methodology is proposed for the dynamics of the Navy’s three-dimensional mine impact burial prediction model, Impact35/vortex, based on the Dormand–Prince Runge–Kutta fifth-order and the singly diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta fifth-order methods. The main aim is to improve the time efficiency of the system, while keeping the deviation levels of the final results, derived from the standard and the proposed methodology, low.

The problem of making resolution corrections in the scintillation spectrometry of continuous X rays is discussed. Analytical solutions are given to the integral equation which describes the effect of the statistical spread in pulse height. The practical necessity of making some kind of numerical analysis is pointed out. Difficulties with numerical methods arise from the fact that the observed pulse-height distribution cannot be defined precisely. As a result it is possible in practice only to find smooth "solutions". Additional difficulties arise if the numerical method is based on an invalid analytical procedure. For example matrix inversion is of doubtful value in making the resolution correction because there does not appear to be an inverse kernel for the integral equation in question.

The optimized air measuring station location of mine airway based on air fully developed was proposed and numerical tests were conducted with six models. The independence of air fully development and inlet velocity was analyzed which validated the models and the numerical methods. The results show that optimized air measuring station location in head entry is 132m-198m after the airway turning while 5.0m-10.1m before the airway turning in tail entry.

ABSTRACT In the present study Scilla luciliae, S. forbesii, S. sardensis, S. siehei, Scilla x allenii and S. bifolia are compared anatomically. Some differences have been found in root, scape, and leaf anatomy of the taxa, and commented. S. luciliae, S. forbesii, S. sardensis and S. siehei have a metaxylem at the center of the root, others have 3-4 number metaxylem. Vascular bundles in two row in S. luciliae and S. forbesii in a single row in S. sardensis, Scilla x allenii and S. bifolia though in three rows in S. siehei. Aerenchyma tissue is present in mesophyll of five taxa leaf except S. sardensis. The anatomical variations in the taxa have been investigated by means of numerical methods (Analysis of variance and Pearson correlation). By the analysis of the investigated taxa from 12 anatomy related characters, it has been also found that the results from numerical analysis of anatomy characters can provide additional evidences, which correspond to the anatomy for the recognition of the taxa.

The paper presents an analysis and comparison of basic characteristics of axial fans, both analytically and numerically. Such characteristics are: the characteristics of the total pressure, power and total efficiency as a function of the volumetric flow rate. The presented results showed significant quantitative and qualitative differences in the characteristics obtained by two methods. The usefulness of numerical methods in relation to the results of the initial analytical project was confirmed.

Liaison between the engineering and computing sections of an aircraft company suffers when the engineer feels he is “losing control” of his own problems. This situation is typically due, not to distrust of the calculating engine, but to variance in the numerical methods favoured by the engineer and the engine programmer.

Three hybrids of Triticum turgidum cv. Ma with Hordeum californicum × T. aestivum cv. Chinese Spring amphiploid were obtained at a frequency of 1.6% of the pollinated florets. Meiotic analysis of the hybrid plants revealed an average chiasma frequency per pollen mother cell ranging from 15.27 to 17.60. The lower than expected chromosome pairing in the hybrid plants was attributed to the suppression of pairing between homologous wheat chromosomes by pairing regulatory gene(s) in H. californicum.Key words: intergeneric hybrids, Hordeum californicum, Triticum turgidum, meiosis, chromosome pairing.

Colchicine-induced autotetraploids of Triticum speltoides, T. longissimum, T. sharonense, T. bicorne, T. uniaristatum, T. monococcum, and T. tauschii were all morphologically similar to but larger than their diploid forms. Seed set was lower than in the diploids except for the autotetraploid T. speltoides. Meiotic analysis showed fewer quadrivalents and more bivalents than would be expected in all of these autotetraploids. Arm-pair switch, indicated by complex trivalents and quadrivalents, was found and involved 0.1% of total chromosomes in T. umbellulatum, 0.5% in T. longissimum, 0.7% in both T. sharonense and T. tauschii, 6.3% in T. bicorne, and 15.3% in T. uniaristatum.Key words: meiosis, chromosome association, arm-pair switch, chromosome pairing, bivalentization.

This article investigates the aerodynamic characteristics of repairing the airfoil with triangular damage by the measurement of aerodynamic coefficients improvement. For study of this model “two applied and numerical methods are used”. A full span NACA 641-412 airfoil is considered as test model. Using model is in five schematics: undamaged model, damaged model with upper, lower and full repair model. The used repair sheets are chosen based on the ABDR manuals. Effect of the repair on different shape of damage has performed by the quantity and quality results.
