The Hyperbola, Mary Aquin Miller

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis is by no means an exhaustive presentation of the subject "The Hyperbola" or of the many and varied properties connected with this conic section and its associated parts. The aim in writing this paper has been to give a general outline of the history of the development of the hyperbola, to show the various constructions of it, and, with this as a basis, to show the relation between the hyperbola and its connected parts.

A Short Study Of Laplace's Equation, Sidney Teweles Jr.

Bachelors’ Theses

Perhaps if I set forth my original inspiration for this thesis, the reader will be better able to understand the reason for the apparent limitations of treatment. In my study of differential equations, I had the task set before me of presenting a discussion of Laplace's equation to the class. A seemingly easy matter turned out to be quite difficult for the reason that most texts make but brief use of Laplace's equation. Thus in a mathematics book reference will be made to Laplace's equation simply as example of a mathematical process. Some of these processes are the change of …

The Minerals Of New Mexico, Lee Mcguinness

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

Inorganic bodies known as minerals make up, either in whole rock-masses or in isolated form, the material of the upper crust of the earth. Through the evidence furnished by this study of meteorites, we also infer that other bodies in the universe are made up of minerals, or at least those portions of them which are represented by meteorites.

Since minerals are, then, important in making up the observable part of the earth, a study of them is importance in any study of the earth. Because the variety of minerals occurring in New Mexico is large, it will be of …

A Metallographic Study Of Primitive Copper Work., John A. Alley

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The field of archaeology and that of metallurgy appear to be widely separated and in no way related. Work done in recent years, however, tends to show that, in many ways, the metallurgist can supplement and enhance the information gain­ed by the archaeologist, at least in regard to those objects which have been made of metal.

Palaeontologic And Geologic Consideration Of Early Man In Nebraska, Erwin Hinckley Barbour, C. Bertrand Schultz

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

There has been much discussion recently relative to the geologic age of Yuma and Folsom artifacts. The writers submit the following palaeontological and geological data which may aid in a better interpretation of the subject. This paper deals with three localities in Nebraska where Yuma and Folsom implements have been found with extinct mammals; namely, the Scottsbluff Bison Quarry, the Sand Hill blow-out sites, and the Sioux County artifact sites.

A Method Of Changing Certain Infinite Series To New But Equivalent Series, Moneta Gunilla Johnson

Mathematics & Statistics ETDs

The purpose of this investigation is to prove that the sum of a series of variable terms of a certain type is equal to a constant plus the sum of another series of variable terms. As a result of this proof it may be hoped that certain series, which so far have not been summed, may be shown equal to a constant plus another series for which the sum is known.

Some Studies Upon Boolean-Schröder Algebra, Madge Childre

Mathematics & Statistics ETDs

As a basis of reference the assumptions and theorems of the Boole-Schröder system are given in full below. In general, the proofs of the theorems are not included, as they may be found in the treatise on the subject by these two men. However, in the case of a few of the theorems, new and original proofs were deemed to be of sufficient interest to be included here.

In the proofs which are included the following form has been used throughout. The page is divided into two columns, the logical steps of the proof appearing in the left column, and …

A Study Of Methods Of Determining The Rate Of Acid Hydrolysis Of Wheat Gluten, Angus V. Honrickson

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Because of the nutritious value of sodium glutamate and its meat-like flavor, which is very pleasing to most people, and hence its demand if it were properly promoted, and because of the abundance of protein in accessible form for its manufacture, it is only reasonable to assume that if the optimum conditions of protein hydrolysis were found, the manufacturing could be made a highly successful enterprise. it was the purpose of this research to investigate the methods by which the hydrolysis of wheat glutes can do conveniently followed in order to determine the efficiency of reactions run under specific conditions.

An Investigation Into The Bromate Method Of Manganese Determination, Ray A. Bunday

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Throughout the history of research in the science of Chemistry the problem of the quantitative determination of manganese has always been a perplexing one. The results have usually fallen short of the theoretical value and has necessitated the application of an empirical factor(1) which is always undesirable to the true research scientist, if not to the commercial analyst.

Test 271: Caterpiller Model 30 (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 …

Nebraska Tractor Tests

EXPLANATION OF TEST REPORT: Farmall F-20

TEST A: The manufacturer's representative operates the tractor for a minimum of 12 hours using light to heavy drawbar loads in each gear.

This serves as a period for limber up, general observation and adjustments. Adjustments that are permissible include valve tappet clearance, breaker, point gap, spark plug gaps, clutch and others of a similar nature. No new parts or accessories can be installed without having mention made of it in the report. No data' are recorded during this preliminary run except the time that the engine is operated.
