The Indium-Mercury Constitutional Diagram, Bert E. Lake

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Whenever metals differ greatly in electropositivity, intermetallic compounds are likely to form in preference to solid solutions. 21ercury and indium show a considerable difference in electropositivity. This would indicate that intermetallic compounds may play an important role in the con­stitutional diagram for the mercury-indium system.

Recrystallization Of High Purity Aluminum, Virgil H. Griswold Jr.

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

If a metal is first cold-worked and then heated to a sufficient temperature for an adequate length of time, the hardening properties due to cold-working disappear, and the metal will return more or less to its original state. Upon examination of the microstructure, we find that new grains have replaced the old grains through what is called recrystallization. The final size of the recrystallized grains depends upon three important variables--the degree of cold-work or deforma­tion, annealing temperature, and annealing time.

A Study Of The Effects Of The Chloride Ion On The Lead-Silver Anodes And On The Lead Tenor Of The Zinc Deposit In Zinc Electrolysis, William A. Mitchell

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The electrolyte used in the commercial production of electrolytic zinc from zinc sulphate solutions contains small amounts of impurities each of which has its own effects upon the process. Impurities such as antimony, cobalt, nickel, and iron tend to lower the current efficiency while other impurities such as chlorine, fluorine, and nitrates tend to increase the corrosion of the lead anodes and thereby increase the lead tenor of the zinc deposit.

The Preparation Of Zirconium Powder, Herbert S. Kalish

Professional Degree Theses

"The preparation of zirconium powder by several different methods is fully described and evaluated. Most of the methods described are of a rather classical nature and these methods are discussed as taken from their original sources with suggestions for possible streamlining. Flow sheets are provided.

The first series of steps to produce zirconium powder is almost invariably the production of pure zirconium tetrachloride or pure zirconium oxide from the tetrachloride. The processes described include the sodium reduction of zirconium tetrachloride, sodium reduction of the double alkali fluorides, the calcium reduction of zirconium oxide, hydrogen embrittlement and comminution of reduction products. …

Runoff And Soil Moisture, John William Clark Jr.

Masters Theses

"Hydrology is the science treating of water from the time it hits the earth until it leaves the earth. This never ending movement of water is called the "hydrologic cycle" and is best summarized graphically. The hydrologist is primarily concerned with rainfall, runoff and evaporation. One of the basic aims of the science is to compute the surface runoff from any rain on a given area. Surface runoff is here considered as that water which reaches the channels without penetrating the ground, plus subsurface storm flow. Subsurface storm flow is slower than surface runoff but faster than ground water flow. …

The Holding Strength Of Crimps On Tubes, Aydin Cansever

Masters Theses

"The object of this thesis is to determine by analytical means and laboratory tests the holding force of various crimp methods of fastening sheet metals and special tubing. The study is conducted with heat treated Aluminum alloy 24S.T3.

The problem of joining relatively thin walled tubing of high strength material or the application of a plug to such a tube has been investigated by many manufacturers, but the literature in this field is limited and still there are many cases where a better method may prove very useful. At the suggestion of Dr. Aaron J. Miles, the author decided to …

The Lattice Constant And Coefficient Of Expansion Of Chromium, Chao-Ching Weng

Masters Theses

"The most important use of chromium, other than as an alloying element in the manufacture of stainless steel, is for electroplating; to form a coating on other metals for corrosion prevention in order to procure longer life, and to achieve a decorative effect.

The physical properties of chromium are important in the effectiveness of its uses, and its lattice constant, as well as coefficient of thermal expansion, seem worthy of exact determination.

A number of research workers, over a span of thirty years, have spent considerable effort in determining the aforementioned constants. However, their results do not check, and the …

Photoelastic Investigation Of The Stresses In A Capless Connecting Rod, Gerald Delaine Smith

Masters Theses

"For a great many years the primary method used to solve engineering problems was by the use of mathematics. However, rigorous and simple mathematical solutions are only possible if the geometry of the member and its loadings are relatively simple. When irregular shapes with complex loadings are encountered, rigorous mathematical solutions for stresses induced are either impossible or very cumbersome. In such cases, the engineer must resort to other methods which are available today.

This paper attempts to show the application of the photoelastic method to such a problem. Moreover, it will show the comparative ease with which the designer …

The Bloating Of Missouri's Shales, Peter Kurtz Jr.

Masters Theses

"The first objective of this investigation was to determine which deposits of clays, shales, and loesses in Missouri are suitable for use in the production of lightweight aggregate by virtue of their expanding characteristics upon heating. The second objective was to determine, if possible, commercially feasible additions that will produce the bloating property in shales that do not naturally bloat.

There are two conditions which must be met in firing in order to bloat a clay or shale. First, a gas must be formed and evolved during firing. Second, enough glass of the proper viscosity must be formed to trap …
