SIGMAL is a short (∼ 100-line) Fortran program designed to rapidly compute cross-sections for L-shell ionization, particularly the partial crosssections required in quantitative electron energy-loss microanalysis. The program is based on a hydrogenic model, the L1 and L23 subshells being represented by scaled Coulombic wave functions, which allows the generalized oscillator strength (GOS) to be expressed analytically. In this basic form, the model predicts too large a cross-section at energies near to the ionization edge (see Fig. 1), due mainly to the fact that the screening effect of the atomic electrons is assumed constant over the L-shell region. This can be remedied by applying an energy-dependent correction to the GOS or to the effective nuclear charge, resulting in much closer agreement with experimental X-ray absorption data and with more sophisticated calculations (see Fig. 1 ).

Abstract Computer Analysis, Electrophoresis, Ultracentrifugation A Gaussian-like distribution function with three additional parameters is introduced which describes well the electrophoresis patterns of albumin, prealbumin and transferrin. Electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation patterns with 10-15 overlapping peaks are analyzed by means of the FORTRAN-program DIANA. One obtains the (relative) areas, positions and widths of the peaks. The analysis of a series of patterns proceeds in an automated way after the number of molecular components as well as starting values of the positions and the widths have been chosen in a test period.

An unsaturated soil constitutive model considering the influence of microscopic pore structure can more accurately describe the hydraulic–mechanical behavior of unsaturated soil, but its numerical implementation is more complicated. Based on the fully implicit Euler backward integration algorithm, the ABAQUS software is used to develop the established hydro-mechanical coupling constitutive model for unsaturated soil, considering the influence of micro-pore structure, and a new User-defined Material Mechanical Behavior (UMAT) subroutine is established to realize the numerical application of the proposed model. The developed numerical program is used to simulate the drying/wetting cycle process of the standard triaxial specimen. The simulation results are basically consistent with those calculated by the Fortran program, which verifies the rationality of the developed numerical program.

A Fortran programCHOOCH, which derives experimental values of the anomalous-scattering factorsf′′ andf′ from X-ray fluorescence spectra, is described. The program assumes knowledge of theoretical values for the imaginary term,f′′, of the anomalous-scattering factor away from the absorption edge to scale the experimental fluorescence spectrum and thus derive values off′′ near the absorption edge, where tabular data are inappropriate. The Kramers–Kronig relation is used to calculate the real part,f′, of the anomalous-scattering factor. The program aids the decision-making process in macromolecular crystallographic experiments where optimal wavelength selection is required. Magnitudes off′ andf′′ at selected wavelengths can later be used as starting values for heavy-atom refinement with crystallographic phasing programs.
