The G. Ross Roy Collection Of Robert Burns, Burnsiana & Scottish Poetry At Thomas Cooper Library, University Of South Carolina, University Libraries--University Of South Carolina

Rare Books & Special Collections Publications

With the addition in 1989 of the G. Ross Roy Collection, the University of South Carolina's Thomas Cooper Library became a major international center for research across the broad range of Scottish literature. The core of the Roy Collection is (in the words of a recent visitor) "the best Burns collection in North America." Around that core are holdings in depth for many other major (and minor) Scottish writers, from the Renaissance to the present day, supported by the resources of a nationally-ranked research library.


Oxygen Reduction In A Proton Exchange Membrane Test Cell, S. J. Ridge, Ralph E. White, Y. Tsou, R. N. Beaver, G. A. Eisman Jan 1989

Oxygen Reduction In A Proton Exchange Membrane Test Cell, S. J. Ridge, Ralph E. White, Y. Tsou, R. N. Beaver, G. A. Eisman

Faculty Publications

Oxygen reduction in a gas-fed porous electrode attached to a proton exchange membrane is discussed. Experimental data and a mathematical model are presented for the test cell used. Various membrane and electrode assemblies were tested at different levels of platinum loading and Teflon® content. The model accounts for the diffusion and reaction of oxygen and the diffusion and reaction of hydrogen ions. Sulfuric acid was placed above the membrane in the test cell reservoir to provide a source of protons for the reduction of oxygen at the cathode. Based upon model predictions, it is shown that the transport of the …


An Algebraic Model For A Zinc/Bromine Flow Cell, G. D. Simpson, Ralph E. White Jan 1989

An Algebraic Model For A Zinc/Bromine Flow Cell, G. D. Simpson, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

An algebraic model for a parallel plate, zinc/bromine flow cell is presented and used to predict various performance quantities, which are compared to those predicted by using previously published differential equation models. The results presented compare well with previous work. The model is based on the concept of using well-mixed zones and linear concentration and potential profiles for the diffusion layers and the separator. The Butler-Volmer equation is used for the electrochemical reactions, and the homogeneous reaction between bromine and bromide is included.

Estimation Of Electrode Kinetic Parameters Of The Lithium/Thionyl Chloride Cell Using A Mathematical Model, T. I. Evans, Ralph E. White Jan 1989

Estimation Of Electrode Kinetic Parameters Of The Lithium/Thionyl Chloride Cell Using A Mathematical Model, T. I. Evans, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

A one-dimensional mathematical model for the lithium/thionyl chloride primary cell is used in conjunction with a parameter estimation technique, in order to estimate the electrode kinetic parameters of this electrochemical system. The electrode kinetic parameters include the anodic transfer coefficient and exchange current density of the lithium oxidation, a,1 and i0,1,ref; the cathodic transfer coefficient and the effective exchange current density of the thionyl chloride reduction, c,4 and a0i0,4,ref, and a morphology parameter, . The parameter estimation is performed on simulated data first in order to gain confidence in the method. Data reported in …


A Mathematical Model Of A Lithium/Thionyl Chloride Primary Cell, T. I. Evans, T. V. Nguyen, Ralph E. White Jan 1989

A Mathematical Model Of A Lithium/Thionyl Chloride Primary Cell, T. I. Evans, T. V. Nguyen, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

A one-dimensional mathematical model for the lithium/thionyl chloride primary cell has been developed to investigate methods of improving its performance and safety. The model includes many of the components of a typical lithium/thionyl chloride cell such as the porous lithium chloride film which forms on the lithium anode surface. The governing equations are formulated from fundamental conservation laws using porous electrode theory and concentrated solution theory. The model is used to predict one-dimensional, time dependent profiles of concentration, porosity, current, and potentialas well as cell temperature and voltage. When a certain discharge rate is required, the model can be used …


A Thermal Analysis Of A Spirally Wound Battery Using A Simple Mathematical Model, T. I. Evans, Ralph E. White Jan 1989

A Thermal Analysis Of A Spirally Wound Battery Using A Simple Mathematical Model, T. I. Evans, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

A two-dimensional thermal model for spirally wound batteries has been developed. The governing equation of the model is the energy balance. Convective and insulated boundary conditions are used, and the equations are solved using a finite element code called TOPAZ2D. The finite element mesh is generated using a preprocessor to TOPAZ2D called MAZE. The model is used to estimate temperature profiles within a spirally wound D-size cell. The model is applied to the lithium/thionyl chloride cell because of the thermal management problems that this cell exhibits. Simplified one-dimensional models are presented that can be used to predict best and worst …

Organ-Specific And Development Regulation Of The Nopaline Synthase Promoter In Transgenic Tobacco Plants, Gynheung An, Michael A. Costa, Amitava Mitra, Sam-Bong Ha, László Márton Nov 1988

Organ-Specific And Development Regulation Of The Nopaline Synthase Promoter In Transgenic Tobacco Plants, Gynheung An, Michael A. Costa, Amitava Mitra, Sam-Bong Ha, László Márton

Faculty Publications

Control regions of the nopaline synthase (nos) gene have been widely used to express foreign genes in plants since the promoter is active in a wide variety of plant tissues. We report here the characteristics of the nos promoter activity in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants at various developmental stages. The promoter was highly active in the lower parts of a plant and gradually decreased in the upper parts. This vertical gradient was maintained throughout plant growth until the flowering stage when the overall promoter strength decreased significantly in the vegetative organs. However, in various flower …

Subspaces Of Lp,Q, N L. Carothers, S J. Dilworth

Faculty Publications

We examine the subspace structure of the Lorentz function space Lp,q[0, oo). Our main result is that a subspace of Lp,q[0, oo), p ^ 2, q < oo,must either strongly embed in Lp[0,1] or contain a complemented copy of lq.

Inequalities For Sums Of Independent Random Variables, N L. Carothers, S J. Dilworth Sep 1988

Inequalities For Sums Of Independent Random Variables, N L. Carothers, S J. Dilworth

Faculty Publications

A moment inequality is proved for sums of independent random variables in the Lorentz spaces LPtq, thus extending an inequality of Rosenthal. The latter result is used in combination with a square function inequality to give a proof of a Banach space isomorphism theorem. Further moment inequalities are also proved.

How Do Harpacticoid Grazing Rates Differ Over A Tidal Cycle? Field Verification Using Chlorophyll-Pigment Analyses, Alan W. Decho Jun 1988

How Do Harpacticoid Grazing Rates Differ Over A Tidal Cycle? Field Verification Using Chlorophyll-Pigment Analyses, Alan W. Decho

Faculty Publications

Four species of meiobenthic copepods were examined for diatom feeding. Microscopic analysis of gut-pellet contents from field-collected individuals indicated frequent ingestion of diatoms by 3 harpacticoids (Scottolana canadensis, Microarthridion littorale, Cletocamptus deitersi) while occasional diatom ingestion occurred Paronychocamptus huntsmani. Frustules were usually empty and broken, indicating that contents were digested. Laboratory experiments using 14C-labeling showed assimilation of diatoms by the 3 species examined. Field grazing rate studies were conducted over different portions of a tidal cycle using fluorescent chlorophyll-pigment analysis of gut-contents. Highest diatom consumption (p<0.05) occurred just after the mudflat became exposed (i.e. Early Low Water level, ELW) for S. canadensis, while consumption at Late Low Water …
