High gold values mainly occur near the edge of the stock and …

Relationships Among The Metallurgical Condition, Hardness, And The Electrical Conductivity Of Aluminum Alloys, Richard A. Mueller

Masters Theses

"Electrical conductivity measurements (eddy current determined) combined with indentation hardness measurements are now being used throughout the aerospace industry for nondestructive evaluation of the metallurgical condition of commercial precipitation hardenable aluminum alloys. The review of literature and experiments with two aluminum alloys, 7178 and a 5% Zn-Al binary, have shown that skilled interpretation of hardness-conductivity data depends not only upon a qualitative understanding of the modern wave mechanical theories of electron conduction, but also upon some knowledge of the precipitation reaction kinetics. In particular, the effects of "quenched-in" vacancies and retrogression upon the reaction kinetics must be considered. Studies of …

The Transient Dynamics Of Plane Mechanisms, Navnit Chhaganlal Mehta

Doctoral Dissertations

"Accurate determination of dynamic characteristics of mechanisms has become more important with increased requirements on speed, efficiency and precision. Many devices, such as circuit breakers and computing mechanisms, operate under purely transient conditions and actuation time places a serious limitation on the response of the system of which these devices are a part.

In the classical analysis, whether it be graphical or analytical, the mechanism is assigned a specified position and state of motion from which the forces required to produce the motion can be determined. The inverse problem of specifying the driving force and determining the resulting motion, which …

Magnetic Properties Of The Bifeo₃-Pbtio₃-Pbzro₃ Ternary System, James Ivan Latham

Doctoral Dissertations

"The magnetic susceptibility and spontaneous magnetic moment of the perovskitic, polycrystalline solid solutions of BiFeO₃ with PbTiO₃, PbZrO₃, and [50PbZrO₃·50PbTiO₃] were determined using the Faraday method. Pure BiFeO₃ has a G-type antiferromagnetic structure. Although the perovskite BiFeO₃ exhibits a sharp peak in the susceptibility at the Néel temperature, it does not possess a spontaneous magnetic moment. The solid solutions investigated possessed a spontaneous magnetic moment throughout the multiple cell rhombohedral region of the BiFeO₃-PbTiO₃-PbZrO₃ ternary phase diagram, which extends from pure BiFeO₃ to …

Ferroelectric Properties Of Pbzro₃-Bifeo₃ Solid Solutions, Robert Gerson, Pen-Chu Chou, William Joseph James

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Solid solutions of BiFeO and PbZrO₃ were investigated for crystallographic and dielectric properties. A new pseudocubic perovskite phase was found, which has been tentatively indexed as orthorhombic with the same unit cell as PbZrO₃ but with dielectric properties characteristic of a ferroelectric substance. The Curie point in this series of solid solutions has a minimum of about 155°C at a composition of about (PbZrO₃)_0.80 (BiFeO₃)_0.20, which at room temperature lies on the boundary between the orthorhombic antiferroelectric and the pseudocubic ferroelectric phases. This composition has a relative dielectric constant of 800 …

Radial Pressure Gradient In Turbulent Pipe Flow, Gary Kent Patterson, Walter J. Ewbank, Virgil A. Sandborn

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Measurements made with a Prandtl static pressure probe have demonstrated that a radial pressure gradient does exist in turbulent pipe flow with approximately the magnitude predicted by Sandborn from hot-wire anemometry measurements.

The Effect Of Concentration On The Viscosities Of Solutions Of Linear Flexible High Polymers, Lung Yu Chou, Jacques L. Zakin

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Viscosity-concentration results in the moderately concentrated range for four samples of polyisobutylene (molecular weights of 1.3 x 104 to 1.0 x 106) in cyclohexane (concentrations up to 4.7 g./dl.) and in benzene (concentrations up to 7.0 g./dl.) at 24°C. (a theta solvent) showed molecular weight and goodness of solvent dependencies similar to those reported earlier for three other polymers. For polyisobutylene, polystyrene, and a copolymer of styrene and methyl methaerylate in good solvents, viscosity-concentration data plotted as ηsp. C[η] vs. k′[η]C fit a single curve. The linear region of this curve suggests that the Huggins equation is useful to C[η] …

Effect Of Environmental Hydrogen Pressure On The Hydrogen Yield From X‐Irradiated Polyethylenes, Otto H. Hill, R. Pat Lightfoot

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

An experimental assembly incorporating a capacitance‐type, differential pressure transducer, which provides resolutions of 3 x 10−4 torr at pressures extending to 30 torr, has been employed to monitor the effect of hydrogen environmental pressure on the hydrogen yield from x‐irradiated polyethylene's. Contrary to the observations of previous investigators, the hydrogen yield is found to be independent of hydrogen environmental pressures extending over the critical range up to at least 30 torr. It is demonstrated that neglecting the temperature and density gradients inherent in closed‐volume irradiation assemblies employing cryogenic traps to separate liberated gases into condensable and non condensable fractions may …

A Determination Of The Rate Of Evaporation Of Zinc At Atmospheric Pressure., Yu Ming Su

Masters Theses

"Measurements of evaporation rates of zinc in three different residual gases, e.g., argon, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen at one atmosphere pressure, were made. It was found that the rate of evaporation of zinc in one atmosphere of argon was almost the same as that in carbon monoxide, while the rate in hydrogen was almost twice the rate in argon or carbon monoxide. Measurements of evaporation rate of zinc in one atmosphere of argon-oxygen mixtures were also made. The evaporation rate was considerably reduced because the formation of the oxide film retards the zinc vapor escaping from the evaporating surface"--Abstract, page …

The Anodic Dissolution Of Cadmium, James W. Johnson, E. Deng, S. C. Lai, William Joseph James

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The anodic dissolution of cadmium has been studied in aqueous solutions containing Cl−, Br−, I−, Ac−, SO₄=, and NO3− ions. The normal valence (+2) was found in all solutions with the exception of NO₃−. The apparent valence (calculated) of cadmium ions in nitrate solutions varied from 1.2 to 2.0 and was found to be a function of NO₃− concentration, current density, and temperature. An anodic dissolution mechanism has been proposed involving local corrosion and disintegration of the anode which is consistent with the experimental results. © 1967, The Electrochemical Society, Inc.

Basic Iron (Iii) Alkanoate Complexes, Young Hee Kim

Masters Theses

"Much information appears in the literature concerning the preparation, properties and structure of the basic iron (III) acetates...This study was initiated to prepare a number of the basic trinuclear iron (III) alkanoate complexes and to investigate the possibility of a common structure for all of these as suggested by the work of Orgel. The structural investigation was done on the basis of stoichiometric relationships, infrared spectra and magnetic moments"--Abstract, pages ii-iii.

Stresses In A Thick Spherical Shell, David Wayne Moore

Masters Theses

"This thesis reports a method to evaluate the stresses in a segment of a thick spherical shell. In the numerical examples loads due to thermal expansion as the shell is constrained at the free edge and a dead load acting vertically downward were considered for a shell assumed pinned but free to rotate and for a shell assumed completely fixed at the edge. A concrete shell was specifically studied but the method would also apply to a shell of any homogeneous, isotropic material"--Abstract, page i.

Small-Signal Impedance Of A Junction Diode At High Injection Levels, John E. Lundy

Masters Theses

"A mathematical expression for the driving point impedance of a junction diode at high injection levels is developed. To evaluate the impedance versus frequency characteristic of a diode, it is necessary to know the minority carrier lifetime as a function of injection level and doping density in the base (lightly doped) region, the junction area, and the base width. The interesting characteristic of the diode impedance at high injection levels is the inductive reactance displayed by the diode.

The expression is developed by solving the differential equation for charge flow in the base region of a diode assuming space-charge neutrality …

A Study Of The Genesis Of The Pyritic Gneiss In The Grenville Series, St. Lawrence And Jefferson Counties, New York, Dennis O'Leary

Masters Theses

"The pyrite-pyrrhotite belt is a northeast-southwest trending area about 35 miles long and three to four miles wide located in Jefferson and western St. Lawrence counties, New York, within the metamorphosed Grenville Lowland just northwest of the Adirondack massif.

Outcropping within this belt are a number of thin discontinuous quartz-biotite-oligoclase gneisses with an unusually high graphite, chlorite, and pyrite content, known as "rusty gneisses." Sulfides are concentrated in these gneisses into zones of up to 50% or more pyrite. The pyrite is granular or crystalline and is invariably accompanied by large amounts of chlorite and graphite and local minor segregations …

Convective Heat Transfer In Small Cylindrical Enclosures Heated From Below, Donald Wayne Land

Masters Theses

"Free convection in enclosed air spaces is often of prime importance in the design and analysis of panels utilizing the insulating properties of air and other gases. Previous investigations were performed on very thin air layers.

This thesis presents the results of an experimental investigation to determine the heat transfer by convection and conduction through air layers with relative sizes in terms of length/diameter ratios of one-fourth to one.

Eight cylindrical samples were tested. Four had inside diameters of 2.0 inches, and the others were 2.75 inches in diameter. Heat was transferred across the air layers by both conduction and …
