An investigation was made to test the method of Head on the
flow about a circular cylinder with suction. The method of Head is an
approximate method of obtaining solutions to the boundary layer equations.
The method was adapted to the digital...

Coronagraphs have been used on telescopes for many years to block out bright
sources in the sky to allow nearby objects to be resolved. A digital micromirror
array (DMA) can be used in the focal plane of a telescope to serve as an adaptive...

The recent development of the laser has made possible
communications with a beam of coherent light.
Since coherent light offers great advantages over radio
in the areas of beam directivity and information capacity,
optical communication systems...

There is considerable variation among rose varieties in susceptibility
to mildew, and as a result of maturation, leaves of most
susceptible varieties become resistant to infection. The nature of
resistance has been sought in various studies...

Peptide-phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PPMOs) are synthetic
DNA mimics that bind and silence gene targets. Through designing PPMOs that
silence essential or resistance genes in pathogens, these antisense oligomers could be
utilized as...

This study was conducted to investigate the production and processing technology of common ryegrass screenings and to determine
the nutritive value of these screenings for sheep. The animal response
to them was assessed when the sheep were fed on...

Townsend's mole, Scapanus townsendii (Bachman), was
studied by live trapping, dead trapping, and observation
from July 1961, to July 1963, in Tillamook County,
Oregon. This study was initiated at the request of Tillamook County farmers to...

Concern over the low enrollment in homemaking classes
prompted this study of the homemaking program in secondary
schools in Bend, Oregon.
Two questionnaires were constructed to obtain the
opinions and beliefs of ninth, tenth, and eleventh-grade...

Cucumber, pea, bean, and corn excised roots were used to
assess species differences in metabolic uptake of calcium It was
found that Ca was mostly taken up by these root systems by non-metabolic
processes. The apparent free space ranged from 26 to...
