Economic Impact Of The Proposed Hollywood Entertainment Museum, Harrison Price Company Jan 1992

Economic Impact Of The Proposed Hollywood Entertainment Museum, Harrison Price Company

Harrison "Buzz" Price Papers

For several years, a landmark museum with the mission of commemorating the history of the entertainment industry in Southern California had been planned. A project team of designers, economists, engineers and planners issued a document in late 1990 that laid the groundwork for the project feasibility. In mid-December 1991, the Hollywood Entertainment Museum (HEM) requested Harrison Price Company (HPM) conduct a economic impact analysis of the proposed projec to estimate new and redistributed spending and employment in the region resulting from the construction and annual operation of HEM.

Electromagnetic Focusing Properties Of Chirped Metallic Gratings, Jeffrey C. Schmidt Jan 1992

Electromagnetic Focusing Properties Of Chirped Metallic Gratings, Jeffrey C. Schmidt

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The focusing properties of chirped diffraction gratings have long been studied and often used in applications at optical frequencies. Chirped metallic gratings of this type have also been studied theoretically at microwave frequencies, but no attempt has been made to experimentally examine or utilize the focusing properties of these structures at microwave frequencies. This thesis presents an experimental analysis of the focusing properties of chirped metallic gratings. These gratings are designed to focus electromagnetic energy at a predetermined position by varying strip width and spacing as a function of position. The diffraction gratings are characterized, and experimentally measured results are …


Microchannel Fluid Flow In A Silicon Chip, Ronald R. Ulseth Jan 1992

Microchannel Fluid Flow In A Silicon Chip, Ronald R. Ulseth

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The objective of this study was to analyze theoretically and experimentally the fluid characteristics of forced flow in microchannels. An apparatus was designed and constructed to allow microflow through a 450 μm wide by 17. 5 μm deep microchannel in a silicon chip. The flow through the chip was laminar with Reynolds numbers not exceeding 100. Tuckerman and Pease (1981) theorized that microscopic heat exchangers etched in the back of silicon chips could provide for efficient heat removal from the chips at rates much higher than the conventional methods could attain. The best technologies available provided for heat removal rates …


The Emancipatory Effect Of Integrating Communication Research Tenets On Discrete Curriculum Designs, Elizabeth Cheney Michel Jan 1992

The Emancipatory Effect Of Integrating Communication Research Tenets On Discrete Curriculum Designs, Elizabeth Cheney Michel

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Critical philosophers hold that the underlying cause of our current educational dilemma is a societal condition called modernity, the unique result of the technological orientation that has characterized society for the last two decades. Maintaining that individual human interests cannot be served by an instrumentally-oriented educational system, Habermas declares that the key to effecting change is dynamic, democratic communication in the classroom, oriented in the emancipatory interests of the unique individuals therein. The purpose of this study was to reveal an interdisciplinary link between the tenets of critical educational philosophy and communication theory, and, by implementing the dictates of extant …


An Historical Analysis Of The Philosophies Of The Vocational Education Leaders In Relation To The 1990 Carl D. Perkins Vocational And Applied Technology Education Act Amendments, Cynthia D. Woodley Jan 1992

An Historical Analysis Of The Philosophies Of The Vocational Education Leaders In Relation To The 1990 Carl D. Perkins Vocational And Applied Technology Education Act Amendments, Cynthia D. Woodley

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Federal vocational education legislation has undergone drastic changes in recent years. This study was designed to determine the educational philosophies of the leaders who pushed for the 1990 Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Applied Technology Education Act Amendments and the degree to which the amendments reflected the philosophies of those leaders. Data were collected on testimonies given before the United Stated Congress during hearings related to the act, to identify who the leaders were. Once the leaders were identified, the published literature and testimony of each leaders was analyzed using a model developed by Lloyd Duck and the educational philosophy …

Express Transit Service For The University Of Central Florida, Arturo J. Perez Jan 1992

Express Transit Service For The University Of Central Florida, Arturo J. Perez

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

As one of the fastest growing universities in the State of Florida, the University of Central Florida (UCF) is faced with the hardships placed on higher learning institutions across the nation. The increase of students paralleled by the increase of motor vehicles on the university campus, and the shortage of funding needed to construct the necessary parking facilities to support this growth, has left the University with a big dilemma, whether to try to overcome the parking space deficit by building the needed spaces to accommodate the demand, or provide a mass transit system that would reduce the number of …


Global Domination Of Factors Of A Graph, Julie R. Carrington Jan 1992

Global Domination Of Factors Of A Graph, Julie R. Carrington

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A factoring of a graph G = (V, E) is a collection of spanning subgraphs F1, F2, ... , Fk, known as factors into which the edge set E has been partitioned. A dominating set of a graph is a set of nodes such that every node in the graph is either contained in the set or has an edge to some node in the set. Each factor Fi is itself a graph and so has a dominating set. This set is called a local dominating set or LDS. An LDS of minimum …


Hyperspherical Formulation Of Impurity-Bound Excitons In Semiconductors, J. J. De Groote, J. E. Hornos, H. T. Coelho, C. D. Caldwell Jan 1992

Hyperspherical Formulation Of Impurity-Bound Excitons In Semiconductors, J. J. De Groote, J. E. Hornos, H. T. Coelho, C. D. Caldwell

Faculty Bibliography 1990s

A hyperspherical formalism is shown to be an appropriate approach for the investigation of the three-particle complex corresponding to an exciton bound to a Coulomb center in a semiconductor. The ground- and excited-state potential curves and binding energies are calculated as a function of the mass ratio of the hole and electron, and the concept of a critical mass is discussed. The results that we have obtained are in very good agreement with variational calculations for several semiconductor materials.


Electron-Temperature Measurement In Laser-Produced Plasmas By The Ratio Of Isoelectronic Line-Intensities, R. S. Marjoribanks, M. C. Richardson, P. A. Jaanimagi, R. Epstein Jan 1992

Electron-Temperature Measurement In Laser-Produced Plasmas By The Ratio Of Isoelectronic Line-Intensities, R. S. Marjoribanks, M. C. Richardson, P. A. Jaanimagi, R. Epstein

Faculty Bibliography 1990s

A class of spectroscopic line ratios has been adapted as a diagnostic of electron temperature from < 100 eV to > 1 keV. The diagnostic makes use of the ratio of line intensities from isoelectronic states of different elements in specially prepared targets. The diagnostic is simple to interpret, shows weak dependence on plasma density, requires only low to moderate spectral resolution, uses a single charge state, and can be adapted to minimize line reabsorption and wavelength coincidences with other spectral lines. We present theoretical and experimental results.

Non-Destructive Evaluation Of Space Shuttle Thermal Protection System Tile Bond Integrity, George David Mulligan Jan 1992

Non-Destructive Evaluation Of Space Shuttle Thermal Protection System Tile Bond Integrity, George David Mulligan

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Experimental modal analysis (EMA) is used as a non-destructive technique for the evaluation of Space Shuttle thermal protection system (TPS) tile bond integrity. Finite element (FE) models for tile systems were developed and were used to generate their vibration characteristics (i.e. natural frequencies and mode shapes). Various TPS tile assembly configurations as well as different bond conditions were analyzed. Results of finite element analyses demonstrated a drop in natural frequencies and a change in mode shapes which correlate with both size and location of disband. Results of experimental testing of tile panels correlated with FE results and demonstrated the feasibility …
