Application Of The Finite Element Method To The Solution Of Maximum Fillet Stresses In Loaded Projections, Victor Biller Jan 1976

Application Of The Finite Element Method To The Solution Of Maximum Fillet Stresses In Loaded Projections, Victor Biller

Theses

This thesis analyzes a geometric configuration under a loaded condition and establishes location and magnitude of the maximum fillet stress by the use of the Finite Element Method. Results are compared to Heywood's published study.


A Room, Ned Behnke Jan 1976

A Room, Ned Behnke

Theses

The purpose of this thesis is to make a series of heavy paintings on the concept of limited space using oil on canvas. The concept of "limited space" can be best illustrated in a series of rooms. I intend to accompany these with a poetic diary which will describe my techniques and will present the ideas which I included in the painting such as reflection in color. The "diary" will not be chronological, but related in the order of ideas. I will present the ideas which I have incorporated into the painting of the room especially those regarding how I …


Performance Analysis Of A Black Liquid Solar Collector, Jackson Trentelman Jan 1976

Performance Analysis Of A Black Liquid Solar Collector, Jackson Trentelman

Theses

The performance of a black liquid, sheet flow solar collector has been investigated both analytically and experimentally. In addition, its performance has been compared to that of a baseline collector of the tube and fin design. The black liquid solar collector was predicted to exhibit an instantaneous efficiency improvement of 10-15% over a well designed tube and fin collector. This result was confirmed experimentally. Long term efficiency calculations indicate similar performance improvements over long term use. The major contribution to improved efficiency was found to be the direct absorption process whereby a) the collector efficiency, F’, is unity and b) …


Some Reactions Of 2-Chloroethanesulfonyl Chloride, Paul Zielinski Jan 1976

Some Reactions Of 2-Chloroethanesulfonyl Chloride, Paul Zielinski

Theses

PART 1: THE FORMATION OF 2-METHYLAMIN0-N-0CTADECYLETHAHESULF0NAMIDE FROM 2-CHLOROETHANESULFONYL CHLORIDE. 2-Chloroethanesulfonyl chloride (2) was reacted with octadecylamine (3) in the presence of triethylamine to give N-octadecylethcnesulfonamide (4), which was reacted with methylamine to give 2-methylamino-N-octadecylethanesulfonamide (1). The first reaction involves formation of the sulfonamide and dehydrohalogenation. The second reaction is a Michael addition. The formation of 1 is favored in a polg.r, protic medium. An aprotic, less polar medium produces an unwanted di-Michael adduct CH3N(CH2CH2S02NHCl8H37)2 (8), and polymer. The intramolecular hydrogen bonded structure of 1 is discussed. PART 2: THE FORMATION OF ETHYL ETHENESULFONATE FROM 2-CHLOROETHANESULFONYL CHLORIDE OR ETHENESULFONYL CHLORIDE; A …


Control System For Hydraulic Hybrid Propulsion System, Vratislav Michal Jan 1976

Control System For Hydraulic Hybrid Propulsion System, Vratislav Michal

Theses

A control system for a Hydraulic Hybrid Propulsion System (HHPS) is proposed and specified. Performance of the control system is evaluated by means of digital computer simulation of the total propulsion system. In order to accomplish this, analytical models of HHPS components are developed. The simulation consists of a city bus negotiating a typical driving cycle developed for this purpose on the basis of actual city bus cycle data. Performance of the control system is found to be satisfactory in all phases of driving cycle with the exception of transition from acceleration to cruise.


An Approach To Tone Reproduction For Converting Transparencies To Reflection Prints, Mark Mccormick-Goodhart, Andrew Macica Jan 1976

An Approach To Tone Reproduction For Converting Transparencies To Reflection Prints, Mark Mccormick-Goodhart, Andrew Macica

Theses

The purpose of this investigation was to study the useful criteria for converting transparencies to reflection prints, and examine the unavoidable departures from the criteria. A single useful criterion was found; that the relative brightness of the reproduction match those of the original. One significant compromise appeared to be in the shadow reproduction in low maximum density reflection prints. It was found that like reflection prints, transparencies do not typically reach relative brightnesses as low as zero. Thus, only a relatively small departure from the 1:1 criterion was likely . Flare in the camera system and viewing conditions limits the …

A Comparison Of The Effects Of Viscous And Immersion Processing On Small Image Sizes In Originals And Duplicates, James Fahnestock Dec 1975

A Comparison Of The Effects Of Viscous And Immersion Processing On Small Image Sizes In Originals And Duplicates, James Fahnestock

Theses

A test target with three two bar groups was designed around the DIM microfilm standards. It was produced photographically on a litho film. This target v/as used to discover the factors significant in determining small image sizes and spacings in a microfilm. A 16 mm film holder was designed and built to facilitate the microfilm imaging process. Second and third generation images were made using a liquid-gated contact printing prodedure. It was found that the optical image size an the film at the time of exposure, the image generation, and the optical image size and the density interaction were significant …

Identification Thresholds Of The Human Visual System For An Alphanumeric Resolution Test Object, Mark Bobb Oct 1975

Identification Thresholds Of The Human Visual System For An Alphanumeric Resolution Test Object, Mark Bobb

Theses

Many investigations of the detection threshold of the human visual system have been conducted, and a few recognition threshold studies can be found, however no identification threshold data are available. This paper documents research on the observer's identification threshold for an alphanumeric resolution test object presented at various average luminance levels, contrasts, and contrast polarities. These factors affected the identification threshold in a similar way to the effects they exert on the observer's detection and recognition thresholds; the test object contrast being the most significant factor. Direct numerical comparisons between the various thresholds were not possible due to the large …

The Effect Of Targets Having Selected Line Width To Space Width Ratios On Spurious Resolution And Resolving Power, Milner Noble Sep 1975

The Effect Of Targets Having Selected Line Width To Space Width Ratios On Spurious Resolution And Resolving Power, Milner Noble

Theses

Six radial targets having different line width to space width ratios were made. The effect of the ratios on the phenomena of spurious resolution and resolving power was studied on a fine grain and a coarse grain film. Spurious resolution patterns were undetectable when the dark space exceeded five times the width of the bright line. Resolving power values reached their maximum when the target contained lines that were one-fifth the width of the dark spaces between them.
