Geology Of The Esterbrook Area, Converse And Albany Counties, Wyoming, Michael Nolan Greeley

Masters Theses

"The Esterbrook area lies within the Laramie Range in Converse and Albany Counties, Wyoming. Exposures include Precambrian metamorphic and igneous rocks, the Tertiary White River formation, and Quaternary alluvium.

Hornblende schist and mica-quartz schist comprise the Precambrian metamorphic rocks. Foliation planes of these rocks trend northeast and dip steeply to the southeast. Metamorphic rocks of younger age probably lie to the southeast.

A distinctive, Precambrian silicic pluton of biotite-leucogranite with marginal zones of muscovite-leucogranite and alaskite passively intrudes the metamorphic rocks, generally parallel to the foliation trends. Numerous granite pegmatites show a zonal distribution around the pluton and appear to …

Variation Of Sensitized Fluorescence With Penetration Depth Of Incident 2537a Radiation, George Grayson Robinson

Masters Theses

"An investigation of the sensitized fluorescence of a thallium and mercury mixture using a variable depth cell and photomultiplier type of detection is discussed. Data are given to indicate the variation of the intensity of the 3519A thallium line as a function of thallium temperature, as a function of mercury temperature, and as a function of cell depth. Explanations of results require the use of generally accepted ideas concerning energy transfer, emission, and absorption."

Predicted Transient Response Of Complex Poles By Means Of A Residue Ratio, Rameshchandra Shankerbhai Patel

Masters Theses

"Transient response plays an important role in servomechanism, electronic and electrical circuits. A time response of a linear system is the intuitive and immediately comprehensible description of the system performance. The utility of the system performance in television and high speed computer circuits can be determined by its transient characteristics. By locating certain points on the transient response curve the designer is enabled to predict the shape of the response with some precision. The choice of the overall transfer function (or location of the system singularities on the s-plane plot) is decided by speed, accuracy and stability of the response …

A Survey Of The Methods Of Gas Analysis, Yadvendra V. Desai

Masters Theses

"The object of this thesis is to survey the different types of gas analyses. Subject concentration will be centered on the general and specific instrumental methods of gas analysis. A general account of continuous automatic gas analyzers will be included. References are included for the use of those who desire a more comprehensive knowledge of a specific method of gas analysis.

During recent years, the importance of gas analysis has been considerably increased with the advancement of science and technology. Gas analysis mainly involves the identification, quantitative evaluation and separation of the components of a gaseous mixture. Thus it includes …

A Model Study Of The Application Of Roof Bolts Under Unsymmetrical Loading Conditions, Friedrich H. K. Esser

Masters Theses

"When coal is extracted by the long wall mining method, two gate-roads on either side of the working face are driven with the advancing operation. In the surroundings of these openings the state of stress which existed prior to mining is not only disturbed by the drifting process of the gate-roads but also by the coal extraction in the long wall, resulting in an "unsymmetrical" stress distribution. Varying incremental pressure components and the high complexity of strata movements make it extremely difficult to control the rock behavior under unsymmetrical conditions by conventional support. Application of roof bolts as an auxiliary …

A Study Of A Second-Order Predictive Control System, Tarkeshwar Singh

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this thesis is the study of a predictive control system by simulating it on an analog computer. Logic criteria for step reference inputs are derived by the phase- plane technique, and tie corresponding logic network designed to bring the error and error rate of the controlled system toward zero in the least possible time.

The responses of the predictive control system for step, ramp, sinusoidal and exponential reference inputs are investigated with primary emphasis placed on the rise time and overshoot for several values of step inputs of the reference.

Finally, recommendations are made for further investigations …

Glass-To-Sapphire End Window Seals, Edward E. Stepp, Richard A. Anderson

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

SAPPHIRE windows have been used in laboratory devices where radiation from the ultraviolet through the infrared must be transmitted. Sapphire windows have been valuable in chambers which contain the alkali metals, for the alkali metals are known to react with Pyrex 7740 glass and quartz leaving them pitted and darkened. This paper is a report on an improved glass-to-sapphire end window seal.

The Separation Of Germanium From Lead, Cadmium, And Zinc By Ion Exchange, Myra Sue Anderson

Masters Theses

"The object of this study was to investigate the ion exchange behavior of germanium in order to find a quantitative separation method applicable to the analysis of germanium in zinc ores.

Germanium had been predicted and described as eka-silicon by Mendeleeff, and was discovered by Winkler in 1886. The importance of the metal has increased very much since World War II because of its use as a semiconductor in diodes and transistors.

All commercial scale germanium is now produced as a by-product of base metal processing. Although the United States Bureau of Mines is conducting a program for the recovery …

An Investigation Of Lehmer's Method For Finding The Roots Of Polynomial Equations Using The Royal-Mcbee Lgp-30, James W. Joiner

Masters Theses

“The solution of the general polynomial equation f (x) = O, where f(x) = a_nxⁿ + a_n-1x^n-1 + … + a₁x = a_o, has received the attention of many mathematicians for hundreds of years and is at present in a very highly developed state. Even a cursory examination of the literature will reveal many volumes on this subject. However, this study is concerned primarily with the numerical methods for solving polynomial equations, hence the classical methods will be treated here only as they contribute to this field.

Virtually all of …

A Study Of The Electro-Chemical Injection Of Ca(Oh)₂ Into Pure Kaolin Clay, Sam Michael Savas Jr.

Masters Theses

"The work presented in this thesis is the investigation and study of a possible and successful means of injecting an electrolyte solution into a fine grain soil mass with the use of electric current and to measure some of the changes of its physical properties. A NoKarb Georgia Kaolin Clay was treated by passing a preferential electrolyte solution of Ca(OH)₂ using direct current for a period of one and six days. The tests performed during this investigation included the following: (a) tri-axial tests, (b) atterberg limits, (c) pH determination, (d) moisture content change (from treatment), (e) visual settling of treated …

An Evaluation Of State Mineral Taxation In Missouri, Jerry Wayne Huffman

Masters Theses

"A study was made to evaluate the present taxes levied on the mineral industry in the State of Missouri. The corporate income tax, corporate franchise tax, and general property taxes were examined, in addition to the mine inspection fees and methods of local assessment of mineral properties.

It is suggested that the State of Missouri revise the method of application of the general property tax to mineral properties. Utilization of the principle of taxation of future profits and employment of qualified appraisers would provide a more equitable application of the general property tax.

It is recommended that the present mine …

A Tunnel Diode Parametric Down Converter, Leland Lovell Long

Masters Theses

"The problem, as presented, is to derive analytical expressions for the conversion gain, bandwidth, and noise figure of a self excited tunnel diode converter and to verify, if possible, the validity of these express- ions by building such a converter. These analytical results are presented and discussed. The converter circuit is shown along with the resulting intermediate frequency output. Gain and bandwidth measurements are also given. It is concluded that the self excited converter could very definitely be of value as a low noise pre-amplifying device in the ultra-high frequency and microwave frequency ranges"--Abstract, page ii.
