On The Analysis Of The Timoshenko Beam Theory With And Without Internal Damping, Chinubhai Doshi Feb 1979

On The Analysis Of The Timoshenko Beam Theory With And Without Internal Damping, Chinubhai Doshi

Theses

The Timoshenko beam equation in terms of variable 'wB' is derived where 'wB’ is the deflection due to the bending of a beam. The equation is used to analyze an infinite beam loaded with (i) a concentrated transverse load and (ii) an impulse. It is also shown that the rotatory damping in the equation eliminates the increasing amplitude in the propagation of the bending moment when an impulse is applied to an infinite beam. Also the general procedure for the anlysis of a non-homogeneous equation is explained.


A Synchronous Data Compression System, Joseph Calcagno Feb 1979

A Synchronous Data Compression System, Joseph Calcagno

Theses

This thesis discusses in detail the steps required for the design of a general purpose Data Acquisition System (D.A.S.). This D.A.S. is called a Synchronous Data Compression System (S.D.C.S.) because of some special features. The S.D.C.S. is designed to accept data in analog or digital form. A simple control panel interface is developed, and areas of prime interest such as input/output interface control, analog-to-digital conversion, data compression, and data sampling modes are discussed in detail. ? The primary logic type used for the S.D.C.S. is the CMOS type 4000 Series which was developed by R.C. A.

Evaluation Of Turbine Blade Root Damping, Curtis Beck Jan 1979

Evaluation Of Turbine Blade Root Damping, Curtis Beck

Theses

A test program has been conducted to measure the vibration damping of three designs of steam turbine blades. These blades were tested in their root attachments, sectioned from retired rotors. Blade loading was accomplished in a new type of blade damping test rig and damping was evaluated in the lowest tangential and axial blade modes. The test environment was room temperature air. The damping rig concept and development is presented in detail as well as results of an intensive test program. The blade designs are designated as Types A, B, and C, where Types A and B were of a …

A Software Development System For The Motorola M6800, John Michael Moore Jan 1979

A Software Development System For The Motorola M6800, John Michael Moore

Theses

The goal of this project was to produce a useable software development system for the Digital Group M6800 microcomputer. The design was to have implemented the command language of the Digital Group Z-80 operating system and and have the capability of assembling source programs written using the Motorola M6800 assembly language mnemonics. The program developed to fulfill these requirements was assembled using the Motorola M6800 cross assembler and occupies approximately 7K bytes of memory. The functions provided include an editor package for the entry and modification of source programs, an assembler which meets the design goal and a debugger package …


Theories And Experiments For Determination Of Nonsteady Loads On Turbomachine Blades, James F. Crofoot Jan 1979

Theories And Experiments For Determination Of Nonsteady Loads On Turbomachine Blades, James F. Crofoot

Theses

This thesis collates the state of the art for flow induced excitation in a turbomachine stage under subsonic incompressible flow conditions. Theoretical developments are considered first, beginning with the vortex theories of Kemp and Sears, Henderson, Horlock and Holmes. Actuator disk analyses of Whitehead, Henderson and Horlock, and Horlock, Greitzer and Henderson are then considered followed by field theories of Osborne, Warner and Steele. Computer programs based on these theories are described and detailed input/output instructions are given. Results of these theories are compared and the state of the art for theoretical prediction of nonsteady blade loading is discussed. It …


Readability Determination Using Superimposed Random Noise Patterns, Michael Dennison Jan 1979

Readability Determination Using Superimposed Random Noise Patterns, Michael Dennison

Theses

A readability gauge was constructed which objectively gauges the readability of printed matter. In the past such gauges have been produced using photographically created noise. In this study a gauge was constructed using noise generated by a computer. This gauge was evaluated and compared with a gauge produced using the photographic technique of noise generation. The computer generated gauge proved to be as good as the photographic gauge at detecting differences in legibility of printed type. It was also found that the only two causes of variability in the legibility samples used were letter size and letter contrast. Using only …


Modifications Of A Herrnfeld Sensitometer For Interimage Studies, Charles Tobin Jan 1979

Modifications Of A Herrnfeld Sensitometer For Interimage Studies, Charles Tobin

Theses

An available Herrnfeld Sensitometer has been rebuilt and modified to include a six position filter wheel, three narrow band interference filters, a separate D.C. power supply, and a central control panel. The modified sensitometer expedites the single layer exposure of color film. The system accomplishes this by using interference filters whose band-width peaks are matched to the peak spectral sensitivity of each emulsion layer to be exposed. A D.C. power supply has been included to eliminate lamp ripple caused by the oscillations that occur in the A.C. line. In depth experimentation (approximately 20 rolls of film) produced exposures closely approximating …

Second Stage Autoradiographic Amplification Of Developed Underexposed Tri X Emulsion Images, David Dempster Dec 1978

Second Stage Autoradiographic Amplification Of Developed Underexposed Tri X Emulsion Images, David Dempster

Theses

A series of del iberately underexposed Kodak Film Type Tri-X negatives were first, conventionally developed, the image silver made radioactive with sulfur-35 thiourea, and by using an autoradiographic technique, the image recovered on X-ray film. The resolution and characteristic curve parameters of the final image compared to those of the original donor image were determined by varying the secondary exposure time (contact time between radioactivated film and x-ray emulsion), type of x-ray films and exposure levels. The Tri-X Pan emulsion donor image was amplified using Kodak "NMC", "MA" and "RP" X-ray films as receivers. "NMC" was slightly preferable to "MA", …
