R. W. Gallington, M. K. Miller and W. D. Smith. The ram-wing surface effect vehicle: Comparison of one-dimensional theory with wind tunnel and free flight results. Hovering Craft and Hydrofoil, 11 (15), 10-19 (1972); 9 ref., 24 fig. Factors to be considered in the design of a ram-wing SEV are outlined.

ings of the American Society of Civil Engineers; Journal of the Soil Mechanics and Foundation Division, 98 (SMT), 667-692 (1972); 23 ref., 16 fig. Equations and graphs that can be used in solving design problems concerning repeated loading or vibration of cohesive and frictional soils are presented. 36.
B. O. Hardin and V. P. Drnevich. Shear modulus and damping in soils: measurement and parameter effects. Proceedings ~f American Society of Civil Engineers', Journal of the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division. 98 (SM6), 603-624 (1972); 25 ref., 17 fig. Tests conducted in this study revealed that the shear modulus decreases with increasing strain amplitude while the damping ratio increases rapidly. The effects of effective mean principal stress; degree of saturation, void ratio and number of cycles of loading are discussed.

S. P. Hertz0g. The Hoverjet HJ 100. Hovering Craft and Hydrofoil, 11 (6), 22-23 (1972); 2 fig. A single-seat sporting machine made in Canada is described. This vehicle has an integrated integrated lift-propulsion system that eliminates the need for outside propellers and shrouded fans. A further advantage is quiet operation made possible by a specially-designed muffler.

R. D. Hunt. The VTI hovercraft development. Hovering Craft and Hydrofoil, 11 (15), 4-9 (1972); 2 ref., 8 fig. A description of the VTI hovercraft used as a passenger ferry is given. Design features include a full peripheral skirt and water propellers.

A new design for jet-curtains is introduced. Results of a theoretical analysis and full-scale model tests are presented. J. D. H. Lambert. Plant succession on tundra mudflows; preliminary observations. Arctic, 25 (2), 99-106 (1972); 7 ref., 6 fig. Mudflows occur after heavy rainfall on unstable slopes. Areas stripped of vegetation due to these flows experience increased thaw penetration. Identification of susceptible areas and further research concerning the cause of mudflows will aid off-road vehicle operators in planning movement so that disturbance of thermal soil conditions will be minimized.
