Application Of Small-Scale, Movable-Bed River Models To Channel Improvement Studies Of The Middle Mississippi River, Eugene H. Woodman

Professional Degree Theses

"This paper deals primarily with the use of small-scale models in the study of plans for improving the channel for navigation in several reaches of the Middle Mississippi River. However, it was considered expedient to include a discussion of hydraulic model experimentation in general before dealing with specific cases, in order that the reader might obtain the greatest possible satisfaction from the discussion.

The first part of this paper includes: a discussion of the theory of models, wherein the value and utility of models are demonstrated; the application of models to hydraulic problems, including the requirements for a model to …

Freestone County, Texas [Water Quality Survey Of Wells And Springs With Test Hole Data, 1936], Samuel F. Turner

United States Geological Survey: Water Reports and Publications

Introduction

The purpose of this survey was to obtain information concerning existing wells and springs and the quantity and quality of water they yield, and to put down test holes where additional information was needed.

This project was part of a statewide Works Progress Administration project known as a "Statewide Inventory of Water Wells," sponsored by the [Texas] State Board of Water Engineers. The Division of Ground Water of the United States Geological Survey cooperated in the technical direction of the project and the Bureau of Industrial Chemistry of the University of Texas furnished laboratory space and equipment and supervised …

The Control Of The Grain Size Of Tin., Robert D. Macdonald

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The tin alloys of tellurium are extremely hard and have very great tensile strength. It was thought that the reduction of the rate of grain growth of tin with the addition of tellurium accompanied this hardening and strengthening and such way found to be true.

The Electroplating Of Cadmium From Sulfate Solutions, Lewis S. Prater

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

It has been proven that cadmium forms a very satisfactory plate on steel, which has to withstand severe corrosion, especially the corrosion of sea water and spray. The metal is now successfully plated electrolytically from cyanide solutions, but wherever work is carried on with cyanide, there is great danger of poisoning to the workers.

The Inhibitory Effects Of Carbonaceous Materials On The Cyaniding Of Gold Ores., David Currie Jr.

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Carbon and carbonaceous material have been known to have a deleterious effect upon the cyanidation of gold and silver ores since the very beginning of the process. Organic matter is a common source of impu­rities in cyanide solution, its reducing effect being notorious.

The Electrical Conductivity Of The Copper-Aluminum Alloys., William W. Hintalla

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Among the many aluminum alloys which have been studied are the binary copper-aluminum alloys. These have proven to be among the most useful of the alumi­num alloys thus far worked upon.

The Effect Of Temperature On The Rate Of Dissolution Of Gold In Cyanide Solutions Which Have A Constant Oxygen Content., Robert Currie

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Since the development of cyanidation into a highly efficient process for treating gold ores, many papers have been written on its various aspects. Although, there has been much work done on it, the chemistry of the reaction is not yet completely understood.

The Presence Of Rhenium In Montana Manganese Ores., Henry E. Swanson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Rhenium properties offer many interesting possibilities, therefore any ores containing rhenium would be of considerable value. Its close relationship to manganese in the periodic table led to the belief that manganese ores would be an excellent place to search for the metal. Investigation of the literature of rhenium revealed that no ore was known to contain more than 0.001 per cent of rhenium.

The Electrowinning Of Copper From Roasted Sulphides, Thomas B. Linn

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

A hydrometallurgical process for the recovery of copper from flotation concentrates has long been con­sidered an attractive possibility. The object of such a method is to produce electrolytic copper without resorting to expensive matte smelting and converting.
