Overview: In 1992 a Concerted Action Programme (CAP) was initiated byPeter Sijmons with the purpose of intensifying collaborations between16 European laboratories working on plant-parasitic nematodes. Thefour-year programme entitled `Resistance mechanisms againstplant-parasitic nematodes‘ focused on molecular aspects of theinteraction between sedentary nematodes and plants on the model system.Arabidopsis. and on novel resistance strategies. Funding wasprovided mainly for exchange visits between collaborating laboratoriesand for the organization of annual meetings. During the last annualmeeting

Overview: The increasing production of industrial goods, heat, and energy, as well as traffic, has led to the release of considerable amounts of toxic trace metals to the atmosphere. The result is elevated concentrations of toxic metals in local populations and eco­ systems. Recently the problem of atmospheric long-range transport of trace metals has also been recognized. Significant amounts of these pollutants are disposed and deposited both on regional and global scales. In the atmosphere they may influence the chemical reactions. Of particular interest is their catalytic effect on the oxida

Overview: The main emphasis of these Lecture Notes is on constructing solutions to specific viscoelastic boundary value problems; however properties of the equations of viscoelasticity that provide the theoretical underpinnings for constructing such solutions are also covered.Particular attention is paid to the solution of crack and contact problems. This work is of interest in the context of polymer fracture, modelling of material behaviour, rebound testing of polymers and the phenomenon of hysteretic friction.978-3-211-82686-7978-3-7091-2694-3Series ISSN 0254-1971 Series E-ISSN 2309-3706
