History Of The Thermionic Tube, Mary Liguoria Urbin

Bachelors’ Theses

My interest in the field of physics being that of electricity, I have been permitted to pursue this thesis in the field of thermionics.

The thermionic tube is one of vital importance not only in the field of radiotelegraphy and radiotelephony, but is of great value in the field of engineering and a vast asset in university and college laboratories. In fact, its advent has opened up a new era in many fields. H. J. Van Bijl terms is a "versatile talking bottle." In a paper of this nature only the important features can be stressed, and even here much …

Test 213: Caterpiller Model 70, 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 …

On The Element Of Decomposition Of A Doubly Periodic Function Of The Second Kind, M. A. Basoco

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

Hermite has shown that a meromorphic function which satisfies periodicity relations of the form (1) F (z + 2ω) = μF (z), F (z + 2ω’) = μ’F (z), where ω’/ω = a+ib, b>0, and μ, μ' are independent of z, maybe expressed in terms of the function v{z + X) (2) G(z) = σ(z + λ) ÷ σ(z) + σ(λ) eρz, and its derivatives, in which λ, ρ are suitably determined constants and σ(u) is the …

Determination Of The Limits And Accuracy Of Potassium Ferricyanide As An Outside Indicator In The Determination Of Iron And A Comparison Of This Outside Indicator With Diphenylamine As An Inside Indicator, Eugene D. Burr

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In the volumetric course as offered by the Department of Chemistry of South Dakota State College for the spring term of 1931, we experienced difficulties in the methods which we were using for the determination of iron. The general method used was that of Penny's, using an outside indicator of potassium ferricyanide, and titrating with potassium dichromate.

Wax Analysis With Special Reference To Montan, Spermaceti, And Chinese Insect Wax, Margaret M. Plonsker, Margaret E. Seippel

Bachelors’ Theses

The presentation of this thesis under joint authorship finds its justification in the fact that much of the experimental work, though performed individually, is of such a nature as to warrant a unified description. In this way the reader is afforded a better representation and clearer conception of the problem, and a substantial guide for further investigation. Though much work has been done in the field of wax analysis, little is known of the higher fatty acids and alcohols of many of the waxes. Their isolation has been infrequent, and few if any of their derivatives have been formed. It …

Latitudinal Variations, Lauren James Hervey

Bachelors’ Theses

Because of the peculiar way the problem that is dealt with in this paper evolved, it is necessary to indicate some of the reasoning and a few of the steps that led to the final statement of the problem in its simplified form.

Steric Hindrance In The Ketonic Splitting Of Substituted Acetoacetic Ester, Claude Stanley Abshier

Masters Theses

"The phenomenon of steric hindrance has been observed and investigated in a variety of reactions, most of which have been with aromatic compounds. In this branch of study the speeds of reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, α-mono-methyl-ethyl-acetoacetate, α-mono-ethyl-ethyl-acetoacetate, α-mono-propyl-ethyl-acetoacetate in the presence of 0.05 and 0.10 normal hydrochloric acids have been investigated at temperatures between 60⁰C. and 90⁰C. An attempt has been made to explain the results obtained"--Introduction, page 1.

The Preparation And Specific Gravity Of Pure Formic Acid And Its Aqueous Solutions, Leo Henry Merchie

Masters Theses

"Formic acid, the lowest member of the fatty acid series, was obtained as early as the seventeenth century by distilling ants with water. Other methods were later found after the correct constitution of the acid became known. This acid is not difficult to prepare in a water solution, but it is difficult to obtain in the anhydrous state...The purpose of this work is to study the various methods of preparing anhydrous formic acid, to improve a method for preparing the anhydrous acid, and to correct specific gravity tables for aqueous solutions of formic acid"--Introduction, page 1-2.

A Study Of Methods For Separating The Elements That Interfere In The Electrolytic Deposition Of Lead As Lead Oxide, John Shaw Sabine

Masters Theses

"The electrolytic determination of lead as lead dioxide is a very desirable method, due to its simplicity, accuracy, and the small amount of the analyst's time required. The electrolytic method functions when both large and small amounts of lead are present. The method depends upon the fact that from a nitric acid solution the lead is plated upon the anode as lead dioxide; from the lead dioxide deposit the percentage of lead may be calculated.

An electrolytic method, for determining the lead in samples containing from 5 to 150 mg. of lead, was described in a paper by Schrenk and …
