Freedom In Heidegger., John Duffy Trager 1937-
Freedom In Heidegger., John Duffy Trager 1937-
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This thesis represents an investigation into the meaning and development of freedom in the philosophy of Martin Heidegger. Part I deals primarily with Sein und Zeit. Dasein, human reality, is defined both as a finite, thrown being-in-the-world and as a free entity, projecting its possibilities. Dasein achieves authenticity in the renunciation of the crowd and by embracing its ultimate possibility--death. The conclusion to Part I argues for the identity, in Heidegger's thought, of finite freedom and temporality. Part II deals with Gelassenheit, a work of Heidegger's latter period. Freedom is expressed in a new vocabulary. Man must release himself but …

A Pilot Plant Study To Determine The Treatability Of Combined Domestic And Milk Wastes In An Aerated Lagoon, Allen M. Vanden Hoek
A Pilot Plant Study To Determine The Treatability Of Combined Domestic And Milk Wastes In An Aerated Lagoon, Allen M. Vanden Hoek
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The milk processing industry commonly produces large quantities of high-strength waste. Frequently, a milk processing plant is located in a small agricultural community in which it is the only sizable industry. Because of this, the wastewater from the milk plant may cause overloading of the wastewater treatment facilities of the community. This situation exists in Volga, a small town in eastern South Dakota. The city of Volga, with an estimated 1967 population of 840, has been treating the domestic wastewater plus the industrial waste from the relatively large milk processing plant by utilizing a stabilization pond system. This type of …
Evaluation Of An Accoustical Ear Muff For Agricultural Tractor Operators, Harlin J. Trefz
Evaluation Of An Accoustical Ear Muff For Agricultural Tractor Operators, Harlin J. Trefz
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Agricultural tractor noise is a serious problem of vital concern for tractor operators. Work has been done at South Dakota State University and other institutions to reduce the noise level produced by the agricultural tractor by utilizing various exhaust control methods and insulating cabs. Acoustical ear muffs have not been evaluated as a noise control method. These ear muffs have great potential to offer immediate noise reduction for a very low cost. The objective of this study was to evaluate a commercial acoustical ear muff for use by farm tractor operators as a noise control method under field conditions.

Vaporization Of Scandium Chloride, William Vincent Lucas
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this work was to determine the vapor pressure of scandium chloride. The scandium chloride was prepared by heating a mixture of ScCl3. 6H2O and NH4Cl under vacuum. The measurements on the resultant scandium chloride were made with a magnetically controlled microbalance. The system was evacuated to about 2 x 10-6 torr during the determinations. Calibration, in terms of milligrams per millivolt, of the balance was obtained by weighing quartz effusion cells containing mercury before and after effusion and dividing the change in weight by the change in potential necessary to balance the cells before and after effusion. …
South Dakota Farm Boys Planning Farm And Nonfarm Occupations: A Comparative Analysis, Alan L. Loya
South Dakota Farm Boys Planning Farm And Nonfarm Occupations: A Comparative Analysis, Alan L. Loya
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Farm youth are finding it increasingly difficult to enter farming as a life occupation, and are therefore faced with a difficult situation when it comes to choosing an occupation. The farm-reared boys must decide whether or not to continue the family tradition in farming, and if they decide not to follow this tradition, they must decide on a nonfarm occupation which they would like to enter. The future welfare of these farm youth is associated with the occupational choices they make at this time. Therefore, a comparison of the characteristics of farm boys who plan farm occupations with those who …

The Retention Of Fallout Particles On Roofs Having Different Slopes, Arden B. Sigl
The Retention Of Fallout Particles On Roofs Having Different Slopes, Arden B. Sigl
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Since World War II the continual buildup and spread of nuclear arms has produced a pressure situation between nations. As more and more nations become nuclear powers and continue to expand their arsenals, the chance of a nuclear attack, either by accident or by specific intent, increases. If a full-scale nuclear attack should develop, the only chance of survival would rest -with a fully prepared population. Even with a fully prepared population many would not survive. The National Fallout Shelter Program is helpful in preventing casualties in the event of a nuclear attack. Studies show, however, that such casualties would …
Reactions Of Oxotrichlorobis(Triphenylphosphine)Rhenium(V), Melvin Leitheiser
Reactions Of Oxotrichlorobis(Triphenylphosphine)Rhenium(V), Melvin Leitheiser
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
While sealed tube reactions have been used extensively in the synthesis of other transition metal complexes (1), the method has seen limited use in synthetic rhenium chemistry. The first reaction reported was the preparation of tris (l,1O phenanthroline) rhenium(III) chloride (2). The second reaction was an attempt to isomerize oxotrichlorobis (triphenylphosphine) rhenium(V), ReOCI3-[C65H5) 3P] 2; by refluxing it in chloroform (3). Instead of isomerization, oxodichloro(ethoxy) bis (triphenylphosphine) rhenium(V), ReO(OC2H5 )c12 [C65H5) 3P] was produced; the ethoxy moiety came from an ethanol preservative in commercial chloroform. As temperature was sometimes important, the isomerization was also attempted in chloroform.in a sealed tube …
The Influence Of Anaerobic Pretreatment On The Treatability Of A Milk Waste, Jerry Lee Siegel
The Influence Of Anaerobic Pretreatment On The Treatability Of A Milk Waste, Jerry Lee Siegel
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Both anaerobic and aerobic treatment of wastewater has been used for many years. Some of the common aerobic treatment systems include oxidation or stabilization ponds, activated sludge, trickling filters, and aerated lagoons. Anaerobic treatment has been most commonly used for digestion of sewage sludge. However, septic tanks, anaerobic lagoons, and anaerobic activated sludge (contact stabilization) units are used to treat wastewater anaerobically. More recently, the two systems have been used in combination, with the anaerobic system preceding the aerobic one. This type of treatment has been used primarily for lagooning of industrial wastes, and most commonly for meat-packing wastes. In …

Investigation Of The Dielectric Properties Of Grain At Microwave Frequencies, Arthur A. Kruse
Investigation Of The Dielectric Properties Of Grain At Microwave Frequencies, Arthur A. Kruse
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The components of the complex dielectric constant of feed grains are obtained for the 8.5 to 12 gHz frequency range. The short-circuited wave guide method is employed to provide null-shift data for computer calculation of the first-order approximation of the real part of the complex dielectric constant under the simplifying assumption of negligible loss. Correction to this value is then made, where appreciable, by calculating the loss tangent from attenuation data independently obtained for the grains. The imaginary part of the complex dielectric constant then is obtained by multiplying the loss tangent by the real part. Curves of the real …
Scheduling And Position Control Of Hospital Personnel, Larry Eugene Schmidt
Scheduling And Position Control Of Hospital Personnel, Larry Eugene Schmidt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A review of the literature indicates that previous studies have not provided an effective scheduling technique which will comply both with the restrictions of a set weekend-off sequence and of modern employment laws. Most hospitals are required to comply with the wage and hour laws of their state and, therefore, must schedule within this restriction. In a large number of cases, the hospital and the staff members have agreed upon some set weekend off sequence, thus placing an additional restriction on the scheduling procedure. The concept of position control is not mentioned in the literature. Preliminary investigation by this author …
Themes Of Isolation And Relationship In Selected Novels Of Frederick Manfred, Joan Hilmoe
Themes Of Isolation And Relationship In Selected Novels Of Frederick Manfred, Joan Hilmoe
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The initial appeal of the novelist Frederick Manfred for this student of American literature grew from the fact that he is a contemporary writer and that he lives in the Midwest, more precisely, in Siouxland. At first his novels seemed primarily entertaining, but interest in his work developed with an awareness of a parallel between Manfred's concepts of the isolation of man and relationship to his fellow man and modern psychological ideas. Throughout the research and study of several novels, insights have crystallized to form a clearer idea of man's search for identity and the results of that search in …
