Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) provides three dimensional details of external surface structures and supplements ultrastructural information provided by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Animals composed of watery jellylike tissues such as hydras and other coelenterates have not been considered suitable for SEM studies because of the difficulty in preserving such organisms in a normal state. This study demonstrates 1) the successful use of SEM on such tissue, and 2) the unique arrangement of batteries of nematocysts within large epitheliomuscular cells on tentacles of Hydra littoralis.Whole specimens of Hydra were prepared for SEM (Figs. 1 and 2) by the fix, freeze-dry, coat technique of Small and Màrszalek. The specimens were fixed in osmium tetroxide and mercuric chloride, freeze-dried in vacuo on a prechilled 1 Kg brass block, and coated with gold-palladium. Tissues for TEM (Figs. 3 and 4) were fixed in glutaraldehyde followed by osmium tetroxide. Scanning micrographs were taken on a Cambridge Stereoscan Mark II A microscope at 10 KV and transmission micrographs were taken on an RCA EMU 3G microscope (Fig. 3) or on a Hitachi HU 11B microscope (Fig. 4).

A recently developed 1.4 nm gold cluster has been found to be useful in labeling macromolecular sites to 1-3 nm resolution. The gold compound is organically derivatized to contain a monofunctional arm for covalent linking to biomolecules. This may be used to mark a specific site on a structure, or to first label a component and then reassemble a multicomponent macromolecular complex. Two examples are given here: the chaperonin groEL and ribosomes.Chaperonins are essential oligomeric complexes that mediate nascent polypeptide chain folding to produce active proteins. The E. coli chaperonin, groEL, has two stacked rings with a central hole ∽6 nm in diameter. The protein dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is a small protein that has been used in chain folding experiments, and serves as a model substrate for groEL. By labeling the DHFR with gold, its position with respect to the groEL complex can be followed. In particular, it was sought to determine if DHFR refolds on the external surface of the groEL complex, or whether it interacts in the central cavity.

Gloss is widely accepted as a surface- and illuminationbased property, both by definition and by means of metrology. However, mechanisms of gloss perception are yet to be fully understood. Potential cues generating gloss perception can be a product of phenomena other than surface reflection and can vary from person to person. While human observers are less likely to be capable of inverting optics, they might also fail predicting the origin of the cues. Therefore, we hypothesize that color and translucency could also impact perceived glossiness. In order to validate our hypothesis, we conducted series of psychophysical experiments asking observers to rank objects by their glossiness. The objects had the identical surface geometry and shape but different color and translucency. The experiments have demonstrated that people do not perceive objects with identical surface equally glossy. Human subjects are usually able to rank objects of identical surface by their glossiness. However, the strategy used for ranking varies across the groups of people.

Water pipe of 4.5” diameter and has been operated for 8 year having failure due to corrosion attack on its external and internal surface. It is conducted failure analysis to find out the cause of corrosion by having testing examination of visual fractography, metalography,, SEM EDAX, hardness and chemical composition. Testing and examination results show that the failure / corroded pipe has a for in of general corrosion on the external surface due to environment factor or ground factor arround the pipe and on the internal surface was influenced by excessive root weld creating protrude which then causing turbolens and deposite to accelerate corrosion attack.Pipa berdiameter 4.5” yang berfungsi mengalirkan air bersih dan telah beroperasi selama 8 tahun, terjadi kerusakan berbentuk korosi pada permukaan luar pipa dan permukaan dalam. Untuk itu dilakukan analisa kerusakan untuk mengetahui penyebab terjadinya korosi dengan pengujian dan pemeriksaan secara visual,Fractography, Metallography, SEM, EDAX, Uji Kekerasan dan Uji Komposisi Kimia. Hasil pemeriksaan dan pengujian pada pipa yang rusak / korosi berbentuk jenis general korosi pada permukaan luar pipa yang diakibatkan faktor lingkungan atau tanah disekitar pipa, sedangkan pada bagian dalam pipa dipengaruhi oleh adanya lelehan pengelasan yang kurang sempurna sehingga menimbulkan benjolan yang mengakibatkan aliran air didalam pipa tidak lancar sehingga terjadi turbolensi yang menimbulkan endapan dan mengakibatkan percepatan terjadinya korosi.Keywords: Pipe, environtment, turbolens, corrosion, failure

The article gives an example of controlling the stress state parameters of additively manufactured products. The study was carried out on the basis of a developed non-classical mechanical model of the process of layer-by-layer formation of a coating of arbitrary thickness on a cylindrical substrate. The model is based on modern concepts of the mechanics of continuously growing bodies and allows one to obtain fairly simple analytical dependencies. On the basis of the latter, the problem of technological control of the evolution of contact pressure at the substrate – coating interface is solved in the article. A number of practically significant conclusions have been made.
