TL;DR: Songs of the humpback whale Megaptera novaeangliae were recorded and analyzed from Grand Turks in the Bahamas to Venezuela and it is suggested that songs from other populations are quite different.
Abstract: Songs of the humpback whale Megaptera novaeangliae were recorded and analyzed from Grand Turks in the Bahamas to Venezuela. The design features of the song are as follows. The basic song evolves through a series of different sounds in a fixed order. The song is produced only in the winter tropical calving grounds, just before the whales arrive on the banks. Redundancy is high in that syllables, motifs, phrases and the entire song are repeated. Low, intermediate, and high-frequency sounds are scattered throughout the song. One sound is associated with blowing. The song appears to be partially different each year and there are some differences within a year between banks which may indicate that dialects are present. It is suggested that songs from other populations are quite different. The apparent yearly changes do not occur at one point in time. Only single individuals produce the song and they are hypothesized to be young, sexually mature males. The implications of these various design features are discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the instantaneous stress-intensity factor was derived from the velocity of propagation of the crack. Butler et al. employed high-speed photographic systems with photoelastic methods to obtain a sequence of isochromatic-fringe patterns representing the state of stress associated with the propagating crack.
Abstract: Dynamic characterization of brittle fracture is possible by relating the instantaneous stress-intensity factorK(t) to the velocity of propagation of the crack. High-speed photographic systems are employed with photoelastic methods to obtain a sequence of isochromatic-fringe patterns representing the state of stress associated with the propagating crack. Methods for determiningK(t) from these isochromatic patterns are reviewed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a connection between fitting exponential models and pole-zero models to observed data is made, and the fitting problem is formulated as a constrained nonlinear minimization problem.
Abstract: An explicit connection between fitting exponential models and pole-zero models to observed data is made. The fitting problem is formulated as a constrained nonlinear minimization problem. This problem is then solved using a simplified iterative algorithm. The algorithm is applied to simulated data, and the performance of the algorithm is compared to previous results.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that FeTi basalts contain more Cl and H2O than can be produced by fractional crystallization of a primitive parent, and that the H 2OCl ratio of the hypothetical additional component that is necessary to account for the excess Cl and h2O in primitive MORB is 1-6 and rules out direct addition of seawater to the magma chamber.
