The radiation of spherical compressional waves from a spherical cavity in an ideal elastic solid is treated. The equations for the radiation source and field are written in terms of the reduced-displacement potential. The source equation is studied in terms of characteristic frequencies, corresponding periods and wavelengths, and damping. The field equations for the stresses, strains, radial displacement, etc., are reviewed with regard to the transitions between the near and far fields. The natural parameters for defining the dynamic source and field characteristics are 2b/R and b/a in some cases and a/R in others, where a is the compressional-wave velocity, b the shear-wave velocity, and R the cavity radius. Transient solutions for stresses, strains, radial displacement, etc., include damped sinusoidal oscillations. The initial- and final-value theorems for the Laplace transform are used to obtain solutions for tau (reduced time) ..-->.. 0 + (high-frequency, farfield) and tau ..-->.. infinity (zero-frequency, near-field). 14 figures, 4 tables.

The NUTRAN package of computer programs calculates doses to humans from radioactivity carried out of deep geologic waste repositories by groundwater. It consists of four codes: ORIGEN (developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory), which treats the formation and decay of radionuclides, WASTE, which computes the transport of radionuclides in ground water, BIODOSE, which calculates radionuclide transport in surface waters and ecosystems and human exposures, and WPPLOT, which combines the results of WASTE and BIODOSE into usefully formatted outputs. This report describes what the WASTE, BIODOSE, and WPPLOT codes do. The equations they compute are presented in detail and their meaning is explained. Auxiliary programs which facilitate input and data management operations are also described.

A weekly publication, the Texas Register serves as the journal of state agency rulemaking for Texas. Information published in the Texas Register includes proposed, adopted, withdrawn and emergency rule actions, notices of state agency review of agency rules, governor's appointments, attorney general opinions, and miscellaneous documents such as requests for proposals. After adoption, these rulemaking actions are codified into the Texas Administrative Code.
