Applicability Of Hydraulic Drives To Oil-Well Pumping, James Francis Mcdonald Jan 1942

Applicability Of Hydraulic Drives To Oil-Well Pumping, James Francis Mcdonald

Professional Degree Theses

"To date, to the author's knowledge, there has been no successful application of the hydraulic drive to oil-well pumping. It is understood, however, that there is, at the present time, an installation in the Oklahoma City oil field, near Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, wherein a manufacturer of hydraulic couplings and an oil-producing company have cooperated in experimental work with the fluid drive applied to a pumping well. No technical data or information regarding the success of the application have, as yet, been released and, consequently, this work is presented primarily for the purpose of creating interest in the application of "Fluid …

Electrodeposition Of Copper-Lead Alloys From A 7.2 Per Cent Amine Solution Saturated With Respect To Copper And Lead. Study Of The Production Of Cupric Oxide To Be Used As Solute, Edmund Simon Roszkowski Jan 1941

Electrodeposition Of Copper-Lead Alloys From A 7.2 Per Cent Amine Solution Saturated With Respect To Copper And Lead. Study Of The Production Of Cupric Oxide To Be Used As Solute, Edmund Simon Roszkowski

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this work is to deposit electrolytically a copper-lead alloy from an amine solution for use specifically as a bearing metal. Generally speaking there are four classes of bearing metals: tin base alloys or the babbitts; the cadmium base alloys or the white metals; the silver alloys; and the copper-lead alloys. Additions of other metals may be employed to produce alloys with certain desirable properties"--Introduction, page 1.


Some Causes For Porosity And Leakage In Non-Ferrous Castings, Alfred H. Hesse Jan 1941

Some Causes For Porosity And Leakage In Non-Ferrous Castings, Alfred H. Hesse

Professional Degree Theses

"Non-ferrous copper base alloys find many applications in industry. Among these alloys one finds the tin bronzes rather widely used for many purposes, and by delving still farther one finds pressure castings as one of their important applications. In many foundries the percentage of rejections due to leakage or porosity is quite high. This is obviously very costly since leakage is generally only found after machining. It is with a view to determine the causes for leakage in pressure castings and to devise methods for its prevention that the work described in this thesis was undertaken. It is not intended …

The History Of Missouri School Of Mines And Metallurgy, Phelps County Historical Society

History of the University

The Phelps County Historical Society was organized on August 26, 1938, for the purpose of collecting, preserving, organizing, and publishing in legible and available form the rich historical materials that relate to the people and the institutions of Phelps County, Missouri, and the immediately surrounding territory.

Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy -- sometimes called the “Rolla School of Mines” -- is a world-famed scientific and engineering school that has grown up within the borders of Phelps County. It is not in any sense a local institution, but was established in 1870 and has since been maintained jointly by the …


Dry Pressing Refractory Insulating Brick, Frank Clarence Steimke Jan 1941

Dry Pressing Refractory Insulating Brick, Frank Clarence Steimke

Bachelors Theses

"The expensive process of grinding the insulating brick and the slow production methods of hand forming led to the possibilities of dry pressing the brick. The use of the dry press would increase production, give greater uniformity to the brick and materially reduce grinding if not eliminating it entirely. Since present day combustives were either impractical or else impossible to use, some new material must be found. Three materials presented themselves, napthalene, sulfur, and petroleum coke. The former for its low melting temperature and the latter two for their complete volatility at high temperatures and low if not negligible resiliency. …

Constitution And Properties Of Manganese-Copper Alloys, James Harrison Jacobs Jan 1940

Constitution And Properties Of Manganese-Copper Alloys, James Harrison Jacobs

Masters Theses

"This work was undertaken because of the recently revived interest in the use of manganese as an alloying element. This revival of interest has been mainly due to the development of the process for electro-deposition of manganese by the U. S. Bureau of Mines. Prior to the work of the bureau of Mines there was no commercial source of high purity manganese. Manganese made by the electrolytic process contains less than .03% impurities, while manganese made by other methods contains as high as 3% impurities. The use of high purity manganese as a base for alloys should open up an …


Firing Behavior Tests And Other Tests On A Missouri Stoneware Clay To Determine Its Commercial Possibilities, Ivan Martin Niedling Jan 1940

Firing Behavior Tests And Other Tests On A Missouri Stoneware Clay To Determine Its Commercial Possibilities, Ivan Martin Niedling

Bachelors Theses

"A clay's essential character is its plasticity, whether it is to be used for common brick purposes, the manufacture of refractory articles, or merely as a bonding agent for nonplastic materials. Plasticity is a very large subject; there are many theories as to its cause and many methods have been developed to record it, but so far no satisfactory quantitative measure of plasticity has been found. Perhaps the most satisfactory method is to judge by handling the clay, and with constant practice one can become expert in judging the plasticity of a clay by its feel. Such a method is, …


X-Ray Data Concerning Some Manganese-Copper Alloys, George Lester Mitsch Jan 1940

X-Ray Data Concerning Some Manganese-Copper Alloys, George Lester Mitsch

Bachelors Theses

"Until recently the only commercial method of producing metallic manganese in large ammounts sic was a pyrometallurgical process. Producing a metal of about 97% purity, it was not very satisfactory. With the advent of a process for producing a metal of 99.9 plus % purity electrolytically, introduced by the United States Bureau of Mines, for the first time was there a sufficient quantity of pure manganese available for alloy use. The manganese-copper system was chosen for study because of the inconsistencies in the reports of previous investigators, and because of the properties alloys of these components possess, such as magnetism, …

The University Of Missouri, A Centennial History 1839-1939, Jonas Viles Jan 1939

The University Of Missouri, A Centennial History 1839-1939, Jonas Viles

History of the University

The School of Mines and Metallurgy of the University of Missouri is unique among the various functional divisions of the parent institution at Columbia. Although governed by the same board of curators as manages the affairs of the University as a whole, it occupies a separate campus in another section of the state. The location of the school at Rolla, in Phelps county, has not, of course, in itself, given any particular or specific direction to the development of the institution; but it has made the story of the growth of the school necessarily a different one from what it …
