The investigation was conducted from January 1965 to March
1966. An intensive effort was made to obtain large numbers of animals,
as it is believed that unavailability of specimens has been the
limiting factor in the amount of research concerning...

It has been undertaken here to use the matrix method of
structural analysis for the determination of the stability of elastically
restrained, simple portal frames. This involves the formulation of
the stiffness matrix of the structure in terms of...

To determine whether some bacteria are more susceptible
than others to quaternary ammonium compounds, the following bacteria
were grown on agar slants containing various concentrations of
alkyl dimethyl ethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (ADEBAC), and...

The increased use of outdoor recreation as a part of the
American way of life has focused attention on the diminishing ratio
of suitable land available to meet the recreational demands. In
Oregon, where the demand is greatest, there is still ample...

Vibrio marinus MP-1 (ATCC 15381) deaminated nine of seventeen
amino acids tested with L-glutamine being deaminated to the greatest
and L-serine to the second greatest extent in one hour. The optimum
pH for the L-serine deamination was 8.4.
The...

This simulation is a model for a tidal power-peaking plant that
can be used to determine the electrical peaking generation for a given
set of conditions.
The simulation internally contains a tide producing function
for a specific year, the...

A waveform-preserving, variable time-delay system capable of
several milliseconds delay is described in this thesis. These considerably
long delays are achieved by judicious use of the relatively
low sonic velocity of gases. Initial system design...

The heat-transfer mechanism studied in this experiment was
pool boiling from a flat horizontal surface facing upward with the
bulk liquid at its saturation temperature. The hot-film anemometer
probe was introduced to boiling heat-transfer analysis...

Since many 1, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydropyrimidines have become available
and commercially useful in recent years, a study of the chemistry
of certain of these compounds has been undertaken.
2-Hydroxy- and 2-mercapto-1, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydropyrimidine
have...

This thesis considers the worst-case design of transistor
circuits for the realization of Majority Logic.
First the meaning of Majority Logic is discussed. The requirement
of an odd number of inputs for the realization of Majority
Logic is...

As indicated by the title, this thesis generalizes the Main Inertia
Theorem of Ostrowski and Schneider [8]. The first three results
concern the formation of a polynomial function f(A, A*, H) so that
the existence of an hermitian H for which f(A,...

The infectivity of plant viruses was suppressed by
inhibitory substances (IS) in the sap of Chenopodium. Various
methods were attempted to find an efficient method which would allow direct transmission of viruses from Chenopodium to other plants....

Isocitrate-NADP oxidoreductase activity in mitochondrial and
soluble fractions was determined for hearts, livers and brains of
chick embryos at various stages of development. One-half to two-thirds
of the activity in brain and liver homogenates is...

Consider the estimation of the category proportions in a
multinomial population from a sample which is "censored" in the
sense that under an appropriate, unknown permutation of the sample
categories, the population proportions are all known. We...

One answer to the problem of missing observations in two-way
classification experiments is to insert estimates of missing observations
into deficient cells. Once missing observations have been estimated,
the experimenter may proceed with his...

A mechanism is a constrained kinematic chain composed of
gears, links, cams, or the like. Mechanisms are the building blocks
of all machines, and, as such, their evaluation is of considerable
importance to the mechanical designer. Because the...
