Test 398: Allis-Chalmers Model G, 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 …

A Phase Of The Upper Devonian Of Western Highland County, Virginia, Helen Pulver Foreman

Honors Papers

This paper is a study of the Brallier and Chemung formations of west Highland County, Virginia. The limits of the Brallier formation are determined on the basis ot faunal and lithological evidence, and correlations made with formations in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia.

The field work was carried on during the latter part of the summer of 1947 and the identification and correlations worked out in the winter of 1947 and the spring of 1948.

The Determination Of The Surface Tension Of Benzyl Ether, Sze-Kwei Min

Masters Theses

"The accurate determination of surface tension is of importance in the investigation of theories of surface structure, the structure of liquids, molecular cohesion, in the study of colloids, especially in physiological work, and in various lines of technical chemistry. The two methods most commonly used for determining surface tension are the capillary rise method and the drop weight method. The theory of the former is simple, but its technique is difficult. Its use in some cases is the cause of errors as high as 30%, due to its inapplicability to certain classes of substance, and is much more sensitive to …

The Effect Of Spontaneous Crystallization Of Some Inorganic Compounds At The Critical Temperature Of Their Solvents, John William Buttrey

Masters Theses

"For many years the phenomena which occur at the critical temperature of liquids have been investigated. And since 1912, when Laue and other discovered that a beam of x-rays could be made to yield a diffraction pattern by passing it through a crystal, scientists have been attempting to change the x-ray pattern for various crystals by somehow changing the arrangement of the atoms in the crystal lattice. Harvalik has already shown that crystallization occurs when a solvent reaches the critical point and his work indicates that under these conditions of crystallization there is a change in the crystal pattern. The …

Geology Of The Berryman Area, Washington County, Missouri, Jack Alexander James

Masters Theses

"Purpose and scope - The are discussed in this thesis was selected because of recent exploration for lead within this region and because of the need for more detailed information of the structure and geologic history of the area. The work constitutes part of a program of geologic mapping by the Missouri Geological Survey and Water Resources to complete the mapping of a strip of quadrangles extending across the Ozark Uplift from Rolla eastward to the Mississippi River"--Introduction, page 1.

Reduction Of Beryllium Compounds With Magnesium, Pei Wang

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this research was to investigate the thermal reduction of beryllium compounds and to devise a method to estimate the metallic beryllium content in the final product"--Introduction, page 1.

A Microwave Polarimeter, Alfred E. Schwaneke

Masters Theses

"The dissertation on the following pages may read more like a construction article than an approach to a study of physical phenomena. If so, its purpose is clearly defined. this subject has been studied little from an experimental viewpoint, so one of the main objectives of this writing is to describe the instrument so others may read the article and reproduce this or an equivalent device without a great amount of reading and searching for information on just how to fabricate and mount the parts. No single book or article that I know of covers the inexpensive construction of such …

Hysteresis Loss Of Supermalloy At Different Temperatures, Chester Ray Holland

Masters Theses

"The object of this investigation was to measure the hysteresis loss of supermalloy at different temperatures, and to see if temperature had any effect on hysteresis loss and permeability. The maximum magnetizing current was held constant for all temperatures"--Introduction, page 1.

The Kerr Electro-Optic Effect In Plastic Materials Transmitting Infra-Red Radiation, James Edson Dueker

Masters Theses

"Much work has been done investigating the Kerr Electro-Optic effect and what physical properties of a substance lead to the occurrence of the phenomenon. Information now available indicates a relationship between molecular shape and orientation with the Kerr Effect, hence any added information increases the possibility for finding the exact relationship and the molecular structure of substances. The Kerr Effect, has been used in a number of applications other than for the study of molecular construction of matter. Many applications have been made to form Electro-Optic shutters. This field of work has been increased to include light flash production and …

Radioactivity Of The Pre-Cambrian Section Of The Bourbon, Missouri, Well Core By Measurement Of The Total Hard Gamma Radiation, Paul E. Damon

Masters Theses

"In December of 1947 Mr. Robert Van Nostrand and the writer became interested in the problem of the distribution of natural radioactivity and the applications of radioactivity to geology. A cooperative survey of the literature on the subject was undertaken. Later the writer decided to follow up the survey with a research project. Consultations with Dr. Z. V. Harvalik of the Missouri School of Mines Physics Department, and Dr. E. L. Clark and Mr. O. M. Bishop of the Missouri Geological Survey, followed. The nature of the project was evolved when Dr. Clark, with the consent of the U. S. …

Studies On The Natural History Of The Limpets Of The Family Acmaedae, Ferdinand Stanley Ruth

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This thesis is a report of the findings of two years of part-time work on the limpets of the family Acmaedae. The major portion of the work was done on the Monterey Peninsula between Point Pines, 36° 38' 30" N. latitude, 121° 56' 00" W. longitude, and Pescadero Point 30° 33' 40" N. latitude, 121° 56' 30" W. longitude. The work on homing in Acmaea persona, artificial parthenogenesis in the eggs of Acmaea pelta, and artifical insemination of the eggs of Acmaea pelta was carried on at the Pacific Marine Station, Dillon Beach, California at 38° 14' 30" N. latitude, …

Petrology Of The Upper Marietta And Hundred Sandstones In Southeastern Ohio, Wayne Dudley Martin

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

A petrographic study was made of two Lower Permian (Dunkard Series) sandstones in southeastern Ohio. The sandstone members with which the investigation was concerned are the Upper Marietta sandstone and the Hundred sandstone. The study was made in order to determine the origin of the sandstones and the practicability of applying geologic methods to the grindstone industry. The results of the study indicate that although some of the constituents of these sandstones were derived from igneous and sedimentary source rocks, a relatively large amount of material was derived from metamorphic rocks. The detritus was transported from the east and deposited …
