Orson Hyde And The Carson Valley Mission, 1855-1857, Albert R. Page Jan 1970

Orson Hyde And The Carson Valley Mission, 1855-1857, Albert R. Page

Theses and Dissertations

The Mormon Church has for years been given credit by historians for the settlement of Carson Valley. Prior to 1854 the LDS Church actually had no connection with that valley except that it was part of the Utah Territory, which the Church controlled. When political dissension against the Mormons developed in Carson Valley, Brigham Young decided to organize the area into a county in 1854. The following year he sent Orson Hyde and other officials there to organize the county government. Within a year Hyde so influenced Young that he agreed to send 250 colonists to Carson Valley in order …

Adolf Meyer (1866-1950): Profile Of A Swiss-American Psychiatrist, Barbara Sicherman Dec 1969

Adolf Meyer (1866-1950): Profile Of A Swiss-American Psychiatrist, Barbara Sicherman

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

I wonder how many here this evening are familiar witht he work or even the name of Adolf Meyer. I would expect that he is know to few. Even in the field of psychiatry, towhichhecontributedso much, he has become little more than a name. Young psychiatrists are likely to learn only enought about Meyer to pass their medical boards. What they do read does not necessarily clarify his importance, for his theories seem either obivous or obscure, and far from electriying. Indeed, the recent question of one psychiatrist probably reflects the attitudes of many: "Just whar was so great about …

A Taxonomic And Ecological Study Of The Desmids Of Lily Lake, James L. Pederson Aug 1969

A Taxonomic And Ecological Study Of The Desmids Of Lily Lake, James L. Pederson

Theses and Dissertations

During the summero f 1964 a taxonomica and ecological study was made of the desmids (microscopic green algae) found in Lily Lake. The study site is a subalpine lake in the Wasatch National Forest of the Uinta Mountains, Utah. The lake is located about one-half mile west of Trial Lake at an elevation of approximately 10,000 feet. The lake is an acidic, cold, lentic bog pond characteristic of this region. Desmids were collected at weekly intervals from seven sampling sites. The water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, light conditions and length of day from sunrise to sunset were recorded at the …

An Optimization Technique Applied To The Determination Of Orthotropic Material Properties Using Dynamic Response Test Data, Ronald L. Webster Aug 1969

An Optimization Technique Applied To The Determination Of Orthotropic Material Properties Using Dynamic Response Test Data, Ronald L. Webster

Theses and Dissertations

A knowledge of the behavior of a material under loading similar to expected service loading is required before that material can be used effectively in the design process. Without sufficient mechanical properties data, the design process degenerates to a time consuming and often costly "build, test and modify" type of program. Obviously, this trial and error approach leaves much to be desired.

A Computer Procedure For The Identification Of Beam, Spring, And Damping Parameters Of An N-Mass Model Using Transient Data, Lynn A. Christiansen Aug 1969

A Computer Procedure For The Identification Of Beam, Spring, And Damping Parameters Of An N-Mass Model Using Transient Data, Lynn A. Christiansen

Theses and Dissertations

If, however, one could develop a model for a given physical system, that is a model which can be described in terms of lumped masses, springs beams, and dashpots and then identify the parameter simply by processing acceleration data such as that obtained from drop tests or shaker tests, the task of identification is greatly simplified.

A Thermodynamic Approach To The Study Of Phase Equilibria In The Sodium-Potassium Alloy System I. The Phase Diagram For Nak At Atmospheric Pressure ; Ii. High Pressure Phase Studies, Donald Ray Anderson Aug 1969

A Thermodynamic Approach To The Study Of Phase Equilibria In The Sodium-Potassium Alloy System I. The Phase Diagram For Nak At Atmospheric Pressure ; Ii. High Pressure Phase Studies, Donald Ray Anderson

Theses and Dissertations

Ultra-pure reagents, platinum resistance thermometry and modern inert atmosphere glove box facilities have made possible a detailed examination of the NaK system at atmospheric pressure. A thermoanalytical study of solid-liquid phase equilibria in the NaK alloy system was conducted in the tetrahedral press to 55 kbars to investigate possible intermediate compound formation and shifting of the invariant points at various pressures. An expected shift in the eutectic composition to lower potassium content with an increase in the halt temperature on increasing pressure was confirmed. A merging of the meritectic and eutectic points at 343 ±2°K and 37 ±3 kbars occurred …

Ii, Proton Dissociation From Adenosine, Several Monosaccharides And Related Compounds. Iii, Proton Dissociation From Several Pyrimidines And Their Nucleosides At 10, 25 And 40°, Joseph Howard Ryttling

Theses and Dissertations

The log K, ΔH° and ΔS° values for the interaction of several metal ions with the two isomers of the cyclic polyether, 2,5,8,15,-18,21 hexaoxatricyclo[20.4.0.0^9,14]hexacosane are reported. The stability order found for alkali metal ion interaction with either isomer is identical to the order of ion permeability through reconstituted biological membranes for structurally related antibiotics. The size of the metal ion is critical in determining the extent of interaction. A calorimetric titration study of proton ionization from several monosaccharides and derivatives, pyrimidine bases and their nucleosides, adenosine and its derivatives, and cycloheptaamylose is described. The heats of reaction obtained in this …

Comparative Effects Of Carbon Dioxide On Coccidian Oocysts From Five Different Host Species, Thomas David Bunch Aug 1969

Comparative Effects Of Carbon Dioxide On Coccidian Oocysts From Five Different Host Species, Thomas David Bunch

Theses and Dissertations

Excystation, as applied to the coccidia, is the process by which sporozoites are released from sporocysts and oocysts. Although this process has long been a subject of interest and study, there still remains considerable disagreement among investigators as to the mechanism by which the process occurs and the factors which are involved.

The Catalytic Hydrogenation Of Benzodiazines.|Ni.|Pphthlazine.|Nii.|Pquinazoline, Danny Lee Elder

Theses and Dissertations

Quinazoline and phthalazine were hydrogenated at low pressure and temperature (60 psi, room temperature) and high pressure and temperature (2000 psi, 100°C, 150°C} in neutral and acidic solvents over 5% Pd/C, 5% Ru/C, 5% Rh/Al2O3 , 5% Rh/C, and 5% Pt/C. Chromatographic methods for determining the qualitative and quantitative composition of hydrogenation mixtures were developed. The compositions of quinazoline and phthalazine-hydrogenation mixtures were determined. Eight phthalazine-hydrogenation products were detected and isolated: (1) 1,2-dihydrophthalazine, (2) 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophthalazine, (3) a,a'-diamino-o-xylene, (4) o-methylbenzylamine, (5) 1,3-dihydroisoindole, (6) o-xylene, (7 and 8) cis- and trans- 1,2-dimethylcyclohexane. These products were identified by isolating them from reaction mixtures …

High Pressure, High Temperature Syntheses Of Selected Lanthanide-Tellurium Compounds, John Francis Cannon Jun 1969

High Pressure, High Temperature Syntheses Of Selected Lanthanide-Tellurium Compounds, John Francis Cannon

Theses and Dissertations

High pressure, high temperature technics were employed to successfully synthesize HoTe1.7, ErTe1.7, TmTe1.7, LuTe1.7, YTe1.7, and LuTe3. The pressure-temperature regions in which synthesis of each compound is successful were determined. Pressures to 100 kbars concurrently with temperatures to 1200 °C were used in an attempt to prepare ScTe1.7 and ScTe3, but these efforts met with failure. X-ray studies of these new compounds confirmed that they are extensions of the LTe2-X (0≤x

Theses and Dissertations

Calorimetrically determined ΔH° values are given for the stepwise formation of chelate species between serinate ion and the divalent metal ions of Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Cd. These values of ΔH° are compared with those reported in the literature and were combined with values of ΔG° (log K) found in the literature to calculate values of ΔS°. These values of ΔG° and ΔS° are listed also. A new method of standardizing dilute ferrous ion solutions is reported. This procedure makes use of the thermometric titration technique to detect the equivalence point for the reaction of K_2Cr_2O_7 with ferrous ion. …
