The Oxidation Of Carbon Monoxide By Magnesium Aluminate, James A. Whelan Sep 1971

The Oxidation Of Carbon Monoxide By Magnesium Aluminate, James A. Whelan

Dissertations

In this research the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide was investigated on magnesium aluminate catalysts, MgO:xAl2O3, with five different compositions, x, ranging from 1.0 to 3.0. The reaction was run at temperatures ranging from 500 to 600 °C. with radioactive carbon monoxide as the tracer. An experimental technique has been devised for the analysis of unreacted CO which takes into account a correction for the solubility of CO in CO2.

Four mathematical models were postulated to explain the mechanism of reaction. The models were examined against experimental data by means of non-linear least squares …

An Investigation Of The Use Of The Wyoming Verb Network To Teach Elementary Science, Catherine Herndon Wiegand Aug 1971

An Investigation Of The Use Of The Wyoming Verb Network To Teach Elementary Science, Catherine Herndon Wiegand

Dissertations

The Problem The investigation was concerned with three questions: 1. Does a series of elementary science programs taught over the Wyoming VERB Network contribute any science content learning to the experimental group? 2. Does the grade level of the students affect the science content learning which might be attributed to VERB instruction? 3. Does community size affect the science content learning which might be attributed to VERB instruction? Procedure Classes from five different communities participated in the study. Fifth, sixth, and seventh grade classes were tested for science achievement in February, 1970. This sample had not been exposed to VERB …


Centering In Parallel Channel Systems, Allen Katz Jun 1971

Centering In Parallel Channel Systems, Allen Katz

Dissertations

Several types of signal processing systems in which the signal flows along parallel channels in a fashion similar to the auditory system have been investigated. The effect of excitation with signals containing both single and multiple spectral peaks (formants) was considered. In particular, the effect of nonlinear interaction between channels, referred to as centering, in the presence of noise was studied.

These systems were investigated for their value, both as information processing networks and as models of the auditory system.

The analysis indicates that parallel channel systems, in general, exhibit excellent performance in the presence of noise, and that a …


Sidelobe Suppression In Chirp Radar Systems, Stephen N. Honickman May 1971

Sidelobe Suppression In Chirp Radar Systems, Stephen N. Honickman

Dissertations

Pulse radars extend target range detection by increasing the transmitted pulse width. On the other hand, target resolution is enhanced by reducing the system pulse width. These dichotomous requirements led to the invention of chirp radar systems which achieve greater target resolution for a given detectable range by frequency modulating the carrier frequency of the transmitted pulse. Along with the advent of chirp radars came the extremely simple and reliable technique of chirp signal generation known as "passive generation". However, one of the undesirable features of "passive generation" lies in the infinite time required for transmission of the resultant pulse, …

A Theoretical And Experimental Study Of The Mechanism Of Axoplasmic Convection In Nerve Fibers Driven By Peristaltic Surface Waves, Robert John Biondi Mar 1971

A Theoretical And Experimental Study Of The Mechanism Of Axoplasmic Convection In Nerve Fibers Driven By Peristaltic Surface Waves, Robert John Biondi

Dissertations

In the study of cell biology, investigators have found that substances which are produced within the cell nucleus are sometimes found throughout the cell at points distant from the site of production. In the case of nerve cells (neurons), this is particularly dramatic because of the unusual elongated geometry of these cells.

A neuron possesses a cylindrical tubular extension called an "axon" or "axis cylinder" which is characterized by a large length-to-diameter ratio (103-106). The existence of a continuous proximo-distal flow of axoplasm within these cylindrical axons has now been demonstrated by numerous investigators. In …
