A Mechanical Analysis Of The Oriskany Sandstone In Northwestern Virginia, Selma G. Hirsh Jan 1938

A Mechanical Analysis Of The Oriskany Sandstone In Northwestern Virginia, Selma G. Hirsh

Honors Papers

The primary purpose of this paper is to present specific data as a means of explaining the sedimentation conditions at the time of deposition of the Oriskany Sandstone. The data were obtained through the use of laboratory methods upon specimens taken from several outcrops in the vicinity of Monterey, Virginia (see Darton's U.S.G.S. folio No. 51). In addition to the presentation of objective results, the author has attempted to make tentative interpretations of them, based primarily upon textural and shape analysis of the sediment. The writer realizes that the investigation is inadequate in many respects, due to lack of time …

Report Of Progress Of The Nebraska State Museum, Erwin H. Barbour Jan 1938

Report Of Progress Of The Nebraska State Museum, Erwin H. Barbour

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

The history and development of the Nebraska State Museum since 1891 have been summarized in a preliminary manner up to 1925 in the first number of Volume I of the Bulletin of the Nebraska State Museum.1 Since 1927, the collections of the Nebraska State Museum, The University of Nebraska, have been housed in a new building, Morrill Hall, on the city campus of The University of Nebraska. It now seems fitting to report upon the exceptional progress of the past few years, and to acknowledge the fine cooperation of those who have helped to make it possible.

Test 303: Allis-Chalmers Model Wc (Distillate), Nebraska Tractor Test Lab Jan 1938

Test 303: Allis-Chalmers Model Wc (Distillate), Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

All tractors tested at the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory were certified by their manufacturers as being stock model machines, conforming to specifications filed with the application for test. No special or high-test fuels were used except as recommended by the manufacturer as necessary.

All results within the official tractor test report were actually attained in tests and are without correction or allowances for friction, temperature, altitude, etc. The results were initially accomplished with the tractor in charge of skilled operators employed by the University.

Unless otherwise noted, each tractor was apparently in good condition at the end of the testing …


Preparation Of Thianthrene, Eugene Alton Talley Jan 1938

Preparation Of Thianthrene, Eugene Alton Talley

Master's Theses

This work was begun in an attempt to study further the preparation of thianthrene from 2-dichlorobenzene and alkali sulfides. g_-Dichlorobenzene is a liquid by-product in the preparation of its solid isomer, E-dichlorobenzene, which is used extensively for controlling moths and peach tree borers. The study of the preparation of thianthrene from the liquid isomer was undertaken because the preparation might develop into a possible use for the large quantities available.

Thianthrene might be made from 2-dibromo- and 2-diiodo-benzene but these are not as cheap or as easily obtained as the dichloro derivative and were not used in this study various …


Orthogonal Polynomials With Orthogonal Derivatives, M. S. Webster Jan 1938

Orthogonal Polynomials With Orthogonal Derivatives, M. S. Webster

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

We are concerned with the following assertion:
THEOREM. If {φn(x)} and { φn’(x)} are orthogonal systems of polynomials, then {φn(x)} may be reduced to the classical polynomials of Jacobi, Laguerre, or Hermite by means of a linear transformation on x.


The Effects Of Certain Salts Upon The Saccharogenic Activity Of Three Typical Enzymes, George F. Gastler Jan 1938

The Effects Of Certain Salts Upon The Saccharogenic Activity Of Three Typical Enzymes, George F. Gastler

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In a previous investigation carried out in these laboratories, Moxon and Franks (1), have shown the toxicity of sodium salts of selenium, vanadium, arsenic and tellurium toward the production of carbon dioxide during yeast fermentation of glucose. The toxicity of the salts occurred in the order given. In the same investigation (1), it was shown that sodium sulfide and sodium sulfite exert an accelerating effect.

Graphical Representations Of Singular Solutions Of Differential Equations, Kathryn Lois Pitman Jan 1938

Graphical Representations Of Singular Solutions Of Differential Equations, Kathryn Lois Pitman

Bachelors’ Theses

The first men to detect singular solutions of differential equations were Leibniz, Brook Taylor and Clairaut. The direct method of attack used by each man in attaining these solutions is not known, but a short history of each man and what he has contributed to mathematics can be given. Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz (1646-1716) was born in Leipsic, Germany, and was the son of a professor of law in a nearby university. He was well-educated in law himself, expecting to follow in the profession of his father. But not being under the necessity of earning his living, he enrolled at …


Corrosion Of Aluminum In Alkaline Solutions, George Oliver Doherty Jan 1938

Corrosion Of Aluminum In Alkaline Solutions, George Oliver Doherty

Bachelors’ Theses

Aluminum has been an important member of the metal group since its isolation about 100 years ago. It has sprung into prominence in the commercial field and in household use in the last thirty years. The metal is light, possesses good thermal and electrical conductivity and as an alloy with other metals takes on a surprising degree of strength.

The problem of producing aluminum cheaply enough to make it practical has finally been overcome to a great extent. It now remains to be seen just what further uses there are to which this new metal may be put. Aluminum may …

The Paleozoic Stratigraphy Of Lorain County, Ohio, Edwin Hugo Wenberg Jan 1938

The Paleozoic Stratigraphy Of Lorain County, Ohio, Edwin Hugo Wenberg

Honors Papers

During the course of the school year 1936-37 spent at Oberlin, which is situated near the center of Lorain County, Ohio, the writer had the opportunity to study the outcrops and to gather records of wells in this area.

A study of the strata of this county is confusing because the same rocks have been described under different formational names. Originally many of these strata were traced northward from type sections in central Ohio or westward from type sections near Cleveland. At a later date many of the strata were reclassified and assigned to formations which had been traced westward …


Determination Of Fossil Woods (Basswood In Ellensburg Formation), George F. Beck Jan 1938

Determination Of Fossil Woods (Basswood In Ellensburg Formation), George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

From time to time isolated, rounded pebbles of petrified wood have been encountered in the Ellensburg gravels that overlie the Columbia Basalts in Central Washington. Recently a sufficient number of these specimens were collected to justify a study of the petrified woods of this above-named formation.
