Bending Of A Rectangular Plate With Even And Odd Order Of Boundary Conditions, J. P. Li

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The problem of bending of a rectangular plate with clamped edges has attracted attention of authors for many years but exact solutions have never been obtained. The difficulty arises from the fact that there is no simple procedure for selecting a proper deflection function that will satisfy both the differential equation of bending and the specified boundary conditions. The only exception occurs when two opposite edges of a rectangular plate are simply supported. In such a case, a simple solution either in the form of a single series as proposed by Levy, or in the form of a double series …

A Resource Unit On Foreign Trade, Wilbur R. Hebbeln

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This volume was written to provide a concise reference on foreign trade while, at the same time retaining the fundamental ideas. It is written primarily for persons who have previously covered this area but need to review the basic concepts before making interpretations of other information relating to the subject. Effort has been made to maintain a chronological sequence so not only the ideas but the way they were developed may be apparent. This thesis should provide one of the requisites of a good teacher, that of a command of the subject.

The Effect Upon Academic Achievement Of The Rapid Learners In A Fifth And Sixth Grade Group When Specific Enriching Activities Are Provided, Nina L. Jensen

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Educators have long been aware of the varied needs, abilities, and interests of the children in our schools. They have sought to employ appropriate curricula, materials, and methods, to meet the wide range of abilities that prevails in every classroom. Despite our attempts to bring the greatest good to the greatest number, our schools sometimes fail to meet the particular needs of the individuals and the groups they serve. Gifted children constitute one such neglected group.

Elementary Electronics: A Resource Unit For Secondary Schools, James Edward Jones

The Status And Role Of The Principal In Selected Iowa High Schools With Enrollments Of 100 To 200 Students, Eugene Hiskey

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Within the next ten years, high schools in Iowa and throughout the United States will have the largest enrollments in history. There will, however, be fewer high schools because of school district reorganization. The present school district reorganization law of Iowa is a definite factor in the increase in number of high schools with enrollments of one hundred and over.

An Electronic Analog Computer For The General Physics Laboratory, H. H. Helmick, P. S. Helmick

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Electronic analog computers are being increasingly used today in physics (1, 2), mathematics (3), and engineering (4), and we believe they are valuable as an instructional aid in a college physics department. We have found that the construction of this computer illustrated important electronic principles to our students, motivated them in their study of differential equations, gave them techniques that can be applied to problem-solving on any analog computer, and provided them solutions of some of the important equations of physics.

A Comparison Of Methods For Handling Extreme Values In Experimental Procedure, Virtus W. Suhr

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In dealing with certain types of psychological measures, particularly those involving perception and attention, one is sometimes confronted with excessive values which are probably due to lapse of one type or another. Occasionally these extreme values may be numerous enough to spuriously influence the results. This is particularly true when the mean value of a series of scores is taken as a basis for comparing performance of two or more individuals or groups under different experimental conditions. Several rule-of-thumb methods have been used to secure a valid index for comparison of such measures. Among them are: 1. Use of the …

The Preparation Of A Suggested Unit Using Applications From Physics In The Teaching Of Trigonometric Functions In High School Trigonometry, Oliver Warren Eason

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

In view of the crucial role played by science and technology in contemporary civilization, and because of the intimate relationship between science and mathematics, both pure and applied, a more adequate corre1ation in teaching can and should be effected between the fields of mathematics and science.
