A Determination Of The Surface Tension Of Tin In The Solid State, Charles Merton Rice

Masters Theses

"Many studies have been made on the surface tension of metals but almost exclusively in the liquid state. Information on metals in the solid state is needed in pure physics to test theories of cohesion and in physical metallurgy to explain sintering. The common approach to the problem of surface tension in the solid state is to hang a weight on a thin wire or leaf of metal and then heat this weighted sample to a temperature at which flow is appreciable. The shrinkage or stretch of the sample is then a measure of the surface tension. Of the recent …

Geological Survey Circular 346: First Fourteen Years Of Lake Mead, Harold E. Thomas

Publications (WR)

This circular summarizes the results of recent studies of Lake Mead and its environs. Area-capacity tables, prepared on the basis of a hydrographic survey of the lake in 1948-49, show that the capacity of the reservoir was reduced 4. 9 percent during the first 14 years after Hoover Dam was completed, but the usable capacity was reduced only 3.2 percent. Practically all of this reduction was caused by accumulation of sediment in the reservoir. Studies of inflow and outflow indicate that the reservoir has a total storage capacity about 12 percent greater than that shown by the area-capacity table, because …

The Application Of The Law Of Virtual Work In The Solution Of Civil Engineering Structures, Martin Trester Dyke

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the civil engineering application of the law of virtual work to the determination of defelections, shears, bending stresses in truss structures, beams, structures subjected to both direct stress and bending, and indeterminate structures, and further to give examples of their mathematical solutions.

A Scheme Of Analysis For The Ceric Rare Earths, Herschel Gordon Frye

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The elements numbered 57 to 71 have presented a problem in analytical chemistry unparalleled by that of any other group since their discovery over the span of the nineteenth century. The striking similarities in chemical behavior of the fifteen elements comprising this series have almost completely baffled analysts in every attack, and it is only with the increased use of those newer methods, best described as being of a strictly physical nature, that much real progress has been achieved. Where time-honored classical wet methods have failed rather disappointingly, newer methods based upon the use of the spectrograph and similar instruments …

Preliminary Geomorphological Studies Of The Lime Creek Area & Preliminary Report On The Lime Creek Sites: New Evidence Of Early Man In Southwestern Nebraska, C. Bertrand Schultz, Gilbert C. Lueninghuener, W. D. Frankforter

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

PALEONTOLOGICAL and archaeological discoveries were made near Cambridge, Nebraska, by the University of Nebraska State Museum field party in the spring of 1947 (Schultz and Frankforter, 1948, pp. 279-280) . Fossils and artifacts were found in situ at the base of a fifty-foot terrace on Lime Creek (University of Nebraska State Museum Localities Ft-41 and Ft-42) and on Medicine Creek just below the mouth of Lime Creek (Ft-50). Lime Creek is located (Fig. 1) in southwestern Nebraska in the southeastern part of Frontier County. It is a tributary of Medicine Creek which in turn is a tributary to the Republican …

Studies In Quantitative Paleontology: I. Some Aspects Of The Theory And Practice Of Quantitative Invertebrate Paleontology, Benjamin H. Burma

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

For some time there has been a noticeable trend toward a more strictly quantitative outlook in paleontology. In view of many special circumstances encountered in dealing with fossil material, there is a rather extended consideration here given to the theoretical background of the quantitative method as applied to fossil invertebrates. First there is a consideration of the relations between sampling theory and paleontology. This is followed by a discussion of variability in populations and the problem of inference from sample to population. A consideration is next given to the species concept and a comparison of the units which can be …

Mississippian-Pennsylvanian Boundary Problems In The Rocky Mountain Region, James Steele Williams

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

A variety of paleontologic and stratigraphic problems are presented by rocks near the Mississippian- Pennsylvanian boundary in the central and northern Rocky Mountains. Stratigraphic sections of these rocks show diverse interpretations of fundamental concepts of stratigraphy and paleontology. In many places where Upper Mississippian rocks directly underlie Pennsylvanian rocks it is difficult to determine the precise location of the boundary between these units. Formations that straddle the boundary are very useful and satisfactory over large areas. Most geologists use various types of lithologic criteria to distinguish formations, but some appear to rely mainly on faunal data, unconformities, or attempts to …

Geology And Geological Structure Of The Alberta And Saskatchewan Plains, William E. Topley

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Alberta, responsible for ninety per cent of Canada's output, had, by 1947 entered into her fifth year of production decline. Only ten per cent of Canada's oil requirements were secured from home fields. Ninety per cent had to be imported, mainly from the United States. How long could imports be maintained on present levels? During the year, the United States had started rationing; in one sector of its domain. Would this become general? If so, what was the answer for Canada?

Geology And Ore Deposits Of The Salt Chuck-Rush And Brown Mine Area Prince Of Wales Island, Alaska, Judson H. Whitman

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The Salt Chuck, Rush and Brown, and adjacent mines and claims form an area of approximately 15 square miles near the head of Kasaan Bay about 10 miles northwest of the village of Kasaan on Prince of Wales Island in southeastern Alaska. It is an area of moderate relief in which the hills rise from the water’s edge to heights of some 500 feet. Most of the area is covered with dense vegetation and muskeg.

A Discussion Of The Geology And An Isopach Map Of The Pennsylvanian System In Wyoming And Adjacent Areas, B. R. Alto

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Pennsylvanian strata in Wyoming and adjacent areas have been the subject of much work and discussion. Most of the work has been due to the economic importance of the system as an oil producer in this region. Oil production from strata of Pennsylvanian age is rather recent history; and therefore, much of the available information is local­ized and incomplete.

Sandstones Of The Lance And Fort Union Formations, Alan G. Conner

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The Fort Union and Lance formations are widespread terrestrial sediments exposed in Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Canada. Their stratigraphic position, especially that of the Lance, has long been in doubt, and has provoked much controversy among geologists.

The Geology And Mineral Deposits Of British Columbia, John A. Downing

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The province of British Columbia, with an area of 359,279 square miles, includes a large part of the Canadian Cordillera that is the western mountains of Canada. It is the leading province of Canada in the production of lead, zinc, and silver, and third among the provinces in the output of gold, copper, and coal.

An Isopach Map And A Discussion Of The Permian In Wyoming And Adjacent Areas, Willard Leskela

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The accelerated post-war demand for petroleum products with resultant high prices and dwindling reserves has spurred producers to an extensive search for new fields and for ad­ditional production in known fields. Exploration and discov­ery is dependent on the collection and correlation of vast amounts of data both in the field and that found in liter­ature.

Geology Of Montana, Stanley G. Olson

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

A vast amount of information has been published by many workers on particular features of the geology of the state of Montana, as well as on local geology of many smaller divi­sions. However, a satisfactory summary of the geology in general, which would include all phases of geology as they apply to the greater area of the entire state, has not been published.

A Study Of The Diffusion Of Electroplated Coatings In The Solid State., Michael R. Writt

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The term diffusion means an equalization or homogenization of diverse materials. Specifically ap­plied to metals, diffusion is the interchange of atoms. It is, in effect, an invasion of one crystal lattice by the atoms of one or more other crystal lattices. Therefore, the study of diffusion must involve the geometry and physics of crystal lattices as well as their energies.

Leaching Of Low Grade Rhodochrosite, E. D. King

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Although there are many uses for manganese today, none of them approaches its importance as a deoxidizing agent in the manufac­ture of steels. Without manganese the steelmaking in­dustry would be very seriously handicapped. The metal­lurgy of manganese has been developed around the high-grade ores, and unfortunately, our reserves of high-grade ores are very limited.
