The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Analyses Of Some Geometric Isomers., Thomas H. Crawford May 1961

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Analyses Of Some Geometric Isomers., Thomas H. Crawford

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The research problem presented herein involved the structural determination of several a,~-unsaturated acids and esters. The solution to this problem was sought in the nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra of these compounds. The n.m.r. approach to structural problems in organic chemistry has been investigated extensively in the past ten years and it has proven to be an extremely powerful tool for this type of analysis. The data used in the structural determinations are presented in tabulated fo~, and in. the appendix tracings of the original spectra may be found. Each compound is discussed separately with respect to its probable structure …


The Dielectric Properties Of Mixtures Of Organic Compounds And Perfluoropropane, Vei-Shi Chen Ho Jan 1961

The Dielectric Properties Of Mixtures Of Organic Compounds And Perfluoropropane, Vei-Shi Chen Ho

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In this study, an attempt was made to understand the type and amounts of metastable intermediates formed when perfluoropropane was placed under electrical stress by adding small amoutns of organic compounds such as thiophene, isopropyl mercaptan, ethyl methyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide, carbon disulfide, and nitrobenzene. The sulfur compounds were chose because fluorine was reported to react with thiophene to form sulfur hexafluoride. It was thought that if fluorine were formed from perfluorocarbons in the corona, it might be advantageous to remove this metastable species. Nitrobenzene was used because of its known free radical inhibitor characteristic in polymerization reactions. The hope …


An Analysis On Managerial Factors That Affect Farm Income In Lake County, South Dakota, Charles Hsi Chung Kao Jan 1961

An Analysis On Managerial Factors That Affect Farm Income In Lake County, South Dakota, Charles Hsi Chung Kao

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

There is a considerable difference in income among farmers. It is generally assumed that the level of farm income is related to the degree of managerial success. Managerial success is a composite of successes in carrying out 6 managerial steps: problem recognition, observation, analysis, decision-making, action-taking, and responsibility acceptance. Questions then arise as to where the failures occur in the decision-making process and why they occur. Locating and explaining the reasons for these failures may help increase the income of some farm operators. The general aim of this study was to analyze relationships between the performance of selected managerial functions …


Some Life History And Ecological Activites Of The Richardson Ground Squirrel In South Dakota, Dean Robert Gunderson Jan 1961

Some Life History And Ecological Activites Of The Richardson Ground Squirrel In South Dakota, Dean Robert Gunderson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Whenever man has gone he has changed his environment to suit his needs. Because of his need for food, man has plowed up the prairies and converted the grasslands to grain fields. Before white man settled the Great Plains, range rodents such as the prairie dog and the ground squirrel existed undisturbed and unmolested except by their natural predators. With the advent of cultivated crops, the range herbivores found a new and tasty source of food. Among these primary consumers which took advantage of man’s interference with the natural prairie was the Richardson ground squirrel, Citellus richardsoni (Figure 1). During …


Linear Programming Approach To Faculty Evaluation, Moses David Seversky Jan 1961

Linear Programming Approach To Faculty Evaluation, Moses David Seversky

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study is to explain and demonstrate how linear programming can be applied to faculty evaluation and how this approach cane be interpreted mathematically. This contention will be developed through a mathematical oriented survey of existing job evaluation methods, a discussion of relevant linear programming methods, models, construction of a mathematical model for faculty evaluation, and a numerical example demonstrating the us of the model.


The Kinetics And Thermodynamics Of The Diels-Alder Reaction Between Anthracene And Maleic Anhydride, Donald Bruce Dahm Jan 1961

The Kinetics And Thermodynamics Of The Diels-Alder Reaction Between Anthracene And Maleic Anhydride, Donald Bruce Dahm

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Since the first kinetic study of a Diels-Alder reaction in 1933, numerous kinetic investigations of the reaction have been reported. In the 1950s, a particular interest has been shown in the kinetic studies of the Diels-Alder reaction employing anthracene and its derivatives. Independently, it has been repeatedly demonstrated that auto-oxidation and dimerization will occur under a variety of conditions in the photochemical reactions of these compounds. Unfortunately, the majority of kinetic studies involving anthracene and its derivatives have not taken into account these possible side reactions. The purpose of this study is to reinvestigate the kinetics of the reaction between …


Fall Food Habits Of The Merriams' Wild Turkey In Western South Dakota, Curtis Martin Twedt Jan 1961

Fall Food Habits Of The Merriams' Wild Turkey In Western South Dakota, Curtis Martin Twedt

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The several varieties of wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) formerly ranged over much of what is now eastern, central and southwestern United States. A large portion of the species habitat was destroyed by logging and by clearing forest land for agricultural use. Wild turkey population, were also directly decimated because of bunting by early settlers. Edminister (1954) estimated present Wild turkey range to be approximately 1 per cent of the historic range. In the past few decades, wild turkey population have increased to the point where the species has begun to assume a prominent place among the game birds. . . …


A Study Of Current Distribution, Resistance Losses, And Short Circuit Forces In A Transformer With A Low-Voltage Strip Winding, Wayne Edward Knabach Jan 1961

A Study Of Current Distribution, Resistance Losses, And Short Circuit Forces In A Transformer With A Low-Voltage Strip Winding, Wayne Edward Knabach

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the magnetic forces developed in a transformer using aluminum strip conductor when subjected to a fault at its output terminals. This would be the most severe fault situation possible. Very closely related to this problem is the considered of current distribution and losses in this type of conductor. Whenever current-carrying conductors are located in magnetic fields, forces will be developed which tend to cause movement of the conductors. These forces usually are negligible under normal rated conditions but become most severe under extreme “Short-circuit” conditions. At the present time, this author …


Determination Of Minimum Lethal Level Of Toxaphene As A Piscicide In Lakes Of North Dakota, Dale L. Henegar Jan 1961

Determination Of Minimum Lethal Level Of Toxaphene As A Piscicide In Lakes Of North Dakota, Dale L. Henegar

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Toxaphene as a piscicide for localized field application has not been widely used because minimum lethal concentrations have not been in the field. There is, however, considerable information gained from laboratory bio-assay studies (Surber, 1498; Duedoreff, et al. 1953; Hooper and Grzenda, 1955, et al. 1959). Concentrations indicated by such studies are not necessarily correct for field use. Prevost (1960) pointed out that results from controlled laboratory experiments do not always yield dosages exhibiting similar results in the field where a number of variables, both known and unknown, exist over which the field worker has little or no control. Gebhards …


Indicators Of Achievement In College Physics, Michael D. Foss Jan 1961

Indicators Of Achievement In College Physics, Michael D. Foss

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study was made to investigate some factors which might indicate a student’s success in college physics. The researchers were interested in determining if the following factors were significant in predicting achievement in college physics. It was hoped that answers to some of the following questions would be forthcoming. 1) What percent of students taking college physics took high school physics? 2) Does high school physics contribute to success in college physics? 3) is the size of the high school a factor in determining success in college physics? 4) Can the grades received in Mathematics 16 or English 1 serve …
