A Relationship Between The Mole Fractions And The Absolute Viscosities Of Blended Lubricating Oils, Ernest Reginald Epperson Jan 1932

A Relationship Between The Mole Fractions And The Absolute Viscosities Of Blended Lubricating Oils, Ernest Reginald Epperson

Masters Theses

"The viscosity of binary liquid mixtures has been a subject of much investigation, but most of the work has been done with mixtures of substances other than lubricating oils. Lubricating engineers have found viscosity to be the most important property of a good lubricant, though up to the present time no one has succeeded in deducing a satisfactory expression by which the viscosity of a blended lubricant may be calculated from a knowledge of the physical properties of its components. This investigation has been an attempt to find a relationship between the absolute viscosity of a blended lubricating oil and …

Die Steels And The Heat-Treatment Of Dies For Use In Die Casting Aluminum Base Alloys, Elmer Gammeter Jan 1932

Die Steels And The Heat-Treatment Of Dies For Use In Die Casting Aluminum Base Alloys, Elmer Gammeter

Professional Degree Theses

"Although the casting of metals is an ancient art, it was not until recent years that metals were cast in large quantities in metallic molds. The increasing demands on the industry for greater production brought about this change which essentially involves the introduction of molds capable of producing numerous castings in preference to the use of non-metallic molds which were destroyed in making the casting"--General Consideration of the Die Casting Process, page 1.

The Public Health Engineer's Part On A Health Program, Walter Eric Casey Jan 1932

The Public Health Engineer's Part On A Health Program, Walter Eric Casey

Professional Degree Theses

"In this work the Public Health Engineer should not be confused with the Sanitary Engineer as the term is commonly used today. The Sanitary Engineer is primarily a designer or builder. He is, in fact, a civil and hydraulic engineer specializing in a rather restricted field, confined for the most part to works relating to municipal water supply and sewage. The Public Health Engineer on the other hand is primarily a student and worker in the field of public health. The range of his activities is wider, and his training and knowledge are of essentially different character. It is not …

A Study Of Poverty And Dependency In Phelps County For 1931, Arthur Royal Powell Jan 1932

A Study Of Poverty And Dependency In Phelps County For 1931, Arthur Royal Powell

Masters Theses

"The Ozark Region of Missouri is rapidly undergoing a definite social and economic change. thru markedly improved methods of communication and transportation the eighteenth century culture of this region is being metamorphosed into a twentieth century culture. Where the Ozarker of a generation ago was a strongly individualistic frontiersman in his outlook on life, he is now in the process of becoming a citizen of a larger and more complex society. The telephone, the radio, and the concrete highway, together with the cheap automobile, have made the customs and many of the folkways and mores of the Ozark people obsolete, …

Disintegration Of Green Missouri Fire Clay Bodies At Low Temperatures, Wilbur Brooks Schofield Jan 1931

Disintegration Of Green Missouri Fire Clay Bodies At Low Temperatures, Wilbur Brooks Schofield

Bachelors Theses

"Several years ago in the Ceramics Lab. of the Missouri School of Mines some A. P. Green Ozark Clay test pieces were left in a drier for a period of about seven months at a constant temperature of 110C. At the end of this period it was noticed that these specimens had disintegrated and crumpled down to a powdered mass. The object of this experiment was to repeat the former test and see if the clay would disintegrate and if so why. We also wished to find if by drying at higher temperatures for a shorter length of time would …


Size And Shape Of Clay Grains As Affected By Various Methods Of Grinding, Henry William Meyer Jan 1931

Size And Shape Of Clay Grains As Affected By Various Methods Of Grinding, Henry William Meyer

Bachelors Theses

"It is a common belief among those persons manufacturing dry pressed brick that the shape of grain of the clay used for this purpose would materially affect the physical properties of the resultant product. Some believe that clays, dry pan-ground, give a better product than clays disintegrated mechanically or passed through rolls. In some recent dry press investigations it was found that some milling methods gave an advantage over other methods, in the matter of pressure transmission. Due to this, a possible cause for the advantage was attributed to the shape of the grains resulting from the various methods of …


The Transmission Of Pressure In The Dry Pressing Of Typical Building Brick And Fire Brick Mixes As Affected By The Variation In Grog Size, Henry Rickel Herron Jan 1931

The Transmission Of Pressure In The Dry Pressing Of Typical Building Brick And Fire Brick Mixes As Affected By The Variation In Grog Size, Henry Rickel Herron

Bachelors Theses

"In the formation of dry pressed ware, the transmission of pressure is of vital importance to the quality and character of the finished product as regards the resistance to spalling, load at high temperatures, slag action, abrasion and other physical properties. Furthermore, the transmission of pressure is a limiting factor as regards the size and irregularity of shape of a product manufactured by the dry press process"--Introduction, page 1.


The Spinning Top, Aaron Jefferson Miles Jan 1931

The Spinning Top, Aaron Jefferson Miles

Masters Theses

"Several mathematicians have solved the problems of motion of the top and gyroscope most completely, but none of them have considered in their solutions the effects of the supporting gimbal rings upon the motion or the effects of a variable rotor speed. It is the purpose of this paper to investigate the top equations by two well known methods; namely, by the method of Lagrange and by the method of Jacobi; considering in both the dynamics of the gimbal rings and varying rotor speed"--Introduction, page 3.


A Study Of An Objective Placement Examination For Sectioning College Physics Classes, John Milton Willson Jan 1931

A Study Of An Objective Placement Examination For Sectioning College Physics Classes, John Milton Willson

Masters Theses

"For several years the Department of Physics of the Missouri School of Mines has practiced sectioning of its classes in general physics. The aim has been to segregate in one section the students of superior ability, giving them a course including both the fundamentals of physics and their applications in engineering. The remainder are given a course in fundamentals without placing so much stress upon the applications...Another criterion used to supplement the first-year grade record is the student's score on the Iowa Placement Examinations. The physics examination consists of two parts, the Training Series and the Aptitude Series. These examinations …


Some Results Of Magnetometric Surveying In Missouri, John Gustave Grohskopf Jan 1931

Some Results Of Magnetometric Surveying In Missouri, John Gustave Grohskopf

Masters Theses

"This thesis describes the results of a series of magnetic surveys carried on in the state of Missouri. The financial assistance required for the work was granted in the form of a fellowship to the author by the Industrial Club of the Industrial Bureau of St. Louis; Mr. George S. Smith, Director. Since the progress of any industrial center is accelerated by the mineral resources contiguous to it, the Industrial Club believed that further research upon known and also undeveloped mineral deposits might result in the development of them. It was decided that geophysical methods of research might show greater …

Technical Methods Of Analysis For Mill Products, Daniel Elijah Huffman Jan 1931

Technical Methods Of Analysis For Mill Products, Daniel Elijah Huffman

Professional Degree Theses

"In mining and milling operations it is necessary that the assays be known as soon as possible, also that these results are more accurate than the sampling or the operation that produced the samples. This means that both speed and accuracy must be considered when selecting a method for the analysis of samples"--Technical Methods of Analysis, page 1.


Chemical Control -- Influence On Manufacture And Quality Of Cement, Joseph Owen Hunt Jan 1931

Chemical Control -- Influence On Manufacture And Quality Of Cement, Joseph Owen Hunt

Professional Degree Theses

"Definition:- Portland cement may be defined as the product obtained by finely pulverizing clinker produced by calcining to incipient fusion an intimate and properly proportioned mixture of argillaceous and calcareous materials with no additions subsequent to calcination excepting water and calcined or uncalcined gypsum. While a review of Portland cement analysis would show a wide variation in chemical composition, it must not be supposed that such latitude in proportioning the raw material really exists. If the resulting Portland cement is to be sound, normal setting, and of good strength it is imperative that the raw materials shall be correctly proportioned …
