Work Sampling And Methods Improvements In Shipment Preparation, Michael P. Mccann

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A study was undertaken in the Shipping Center of Rohm and Haas Chemical Company in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to determine what course of action should be taken to reduce overall costs in a labor oriented shipment preparation operation. This activity, which currently utilizes a complement of twenty-seven people, involves the preshipment labelling and stenciling of product and customer information to metal drums and pails plus various other preparation requirements. A work sampling was performed to determine manpower requirements by work category and this information was used to direct the methods improvements study into the most lucrative areas. By transferring the responsibility …

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Eddy current inspection methods are used extensively in industry for the nondestructive testing of a wide variety of materials and product applications. The general theory of eddy current inspection is described. Equations defining the depth of penetration are derived from Maxwell's equations. Signal analysis methods are described using coil impedance diagrams. The impedance diagrams for a number of inspection applications are presented. A discussion of the techniques for theoretical calculation of the impedance of a coil is described. Typical coil configurations and instrumentation techniques are discussed.

The Effects Of Altered Traffic Signs Upon Vehicular Driving Modes And Consequent Fuel Conservation And Environmental Benefits, As Measured By Vehicular Noise-Imprints, Mark Daniel Pfarrer Jan 1976

The Effects Of Altered Traffic Signs Upon Vehicular Driving Modes And Consequent Fuel Conservation And Environmental Benefits, As Measured By Vehicular Noise-Imprints, Mark Daniel Pfarrer

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The hypothesis is that the recorded noise-imprints of a vehicle at an intersection can be used to identify and accurately time the driving modes of deceleration, idle, slow cruise, and acceleration. This is proven by analyzing and comparing noise-imprints of vehicles at an uncontrolled intersection marked first with a "stop" sign, and then by a "yield" and an experimental "dead slow" sign. By relating the duration of each driving mode to known relations, the overall efficiency of an intersection can be characterized. A new technique for studying various types of traffic conditions at intersections is the result. Initial noise-imprint analysis …

A Study Of Differences In Vertical Phosphorus Profiles Within The Sediments Of Selected Florida Lakes As Related To Trophic Dynamics, Edgar Allen Stewart Iii Jan 1976

A Study Of Differences In Vertical Phosphorus Profiles Within The Sediments Of Selected Florida Lakes As Related To Trophic Dynamics, Edgar Allen Stewart Iii

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Several Florida lakes with different documented trophic state indices were selected for sediment analysis. Vertical sections of the sediment were taken at depths of .1, .5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10 and l5 centimeters below the surface of the sediment-water interface. Total Phosphorus analysis was done on each section. The profile presented was then evaluated and was found that the profiles best fit the equation Y = X/ (A + BX), where Y is the Phosphorus Concentration in ppm and X is the sediment depth in cm. Correlation between the trophic state and the profiles characteristics are presented. …

A Comparison Of A Gasp And A Gpss Simulation Of An Avl Operational System, Barry Walden Dupuis Jan 1976

A Comparison Of A Gasp And A Gpss Simulation Of An Avl Operational System, Barry Walden Dupuis

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this research report is to compare two simulation languages; GASP and GPSS. An economical comparison was performed by simulating the same system in each language and examine parameters such as run time, core size, program time, and debug time. A statistical comparison of the results of the system simulation was also performed using a 90% confidence level testing procedure. The system simulated was the proposed Orlando Police Department Automatic Vehicle Locator (AVL) Operational System.

Some Effects Of Solid Rocket Motor Fuel Exhausts On Avian Embryos, Lindsey Elliott Deguehery Jan 1976

Some Effects Of Solid Rocket Motor Fuel Exhausts On Avian Embryos, Lindsey Elliott Deguehery

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Fertile White Leghorn (Gallus gallus) and Bobwhite Quail (Colinus virginianus) were subjected to 15 min exposures produced by burning solid rocket motor (SRM) fuel. Comparative mortality data were collected. Chicken eggs were further used to study the effects of exposure on water relations and blood gas parameters. Chicken embryos exposed once on day 19 or incubation demonstrated and LD50 of 204 ppm; the LD50 for quail embryos was 175 ppm. When mortality was regressed on the final exposure concentration, chicken and quail embryos exposed on days 12 and 19 showed LD50's of 127 and 86 ppm respectively, and embryos exposed …

Solid Waste Resource Recovery Plan For Dekalb County Georgia, Ivan Ray Dory

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A study was made of the feasibility of implementing a system of Resource Recovery from the solid wastes of an urban county in Georgia. A review was made of the existing solid waste management practices and present generation rates. A projection of future waste quantities and composition was made. A review of the present state of the art of recovering resources from solid waste was made to determine what systems could be developed for the County. An analysis of the estimated costs during a test year for three alternative systems for disposal was made to determine a least cost alternative. …

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The report will demonstrate how to implement a basic linked-list data structure in RAM for C. STRING. The result of this implementation is Memory Allocation or Data Management which obtains or releases memory space as required in C. STRING. The basic concepts of data structures such as strings, lists and stacks are discussed and the algorithm for allocation of space is developed. The C. STRING user language TOSCL, and the TOSCL parse algorithm with Data Management is described. Finally, the INTEL's Schottky Bipolar LSI microprocessor is microcoded to implement Data Management.

Energy Resource Allocation Optimization--A Linear Programming Model, Paul F. Hutchins Jan 1976

Energy Resource Allocation Optimization--A Linear Programming Model, Paul F. Hutchins

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A linear programming model has been developed for a Central Energy Plant which minimizes operational costs for a system involving the generation of chilled water and high temperature hot water plus the generation and/or purchase of electric power with equipment using natural gas or fuel oil energy. The fundamental concepts developed herein are sufficient for the analysis of any combination of energy supplies, demands, and energy conversion equipment. Utilization of this model is demonstrated with a case study and computer program results for high and low temperature environments. The linear programming model approach establishes a well-defined framework for the analysis …

Seminole County, Florida Solid Waste Management Plan, Paul A. Magnant Jan 1976

Seminole County, Florida Solid Waste Management Plan, Paul A. Magnant

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The Seminole County, Florida solid waste transportation network was examined to determine alternate locations of transfer stations. The scope of this study is limited to transportation and assumed disposal costs. Collection costs are not included. Review of past generation records was conducted and a per capita generation rate of 4 lbs/day was determined. This compared favorably to a 4.06 lbs/day for Orange and Brevard County. The cost per ton for the present solid waste management system was computed and compared to alternative systems. The present system was compared to several alternatives by altering the number and changing the locations of …
