Model Study Of Laterally Loaded Piles In Sand, Jeong- Shwu Liu
Model Study Of Laterally Loaded Piles In Sand, Jeong- Shwu Liu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The most common function of piles is to transmit foundation loads which cannot be adequately supported at a certain level down to a depth at which adequate support is available. The classification of piles in terms of loading may be considered as vertically or laterally loaded. The laterally loaded pile is a structural member which sustains transverse loads in a similar way a beam does. The lateral force that the pile foundations is subjected to may be induced by earthquake, water waves, moving vessels, wind force, and lateral earth pressure, etc. Early techniques for analyzing laterally loaded pile foundations completely …

Comparison Of South Dakota State University Graduates Of The Home Economics And Of Other Curricula With Respect To Family Living Variables, Janice Hofer Grimm
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Marriage and the family as we have known them in the past are currently undergoing greater change at a more accelerated rate than ever before in history. Many writers concerned with the family and social problems would lead us to wonder if marriage is disappearing. There is an increase in communal living, exchange of marriage partners, and "open" campus dormitories. The divorce rate has been climbing steadily for a number of years. But when one looks more deeply into communal life for example, it is discovered that the duration of communal living is generally about two years. A study done …
Determination Of Salmonella Species In The Big Sioux River And Development Of A Quantitative Most Probable Number Method, Myung Hyun Kim
Determination Of Salmonella Species In The Big Sioux River And Development Of A Quantitative Most Probable Number Method, Myung Hyun Kim
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In recent years the pollution problems in rivers and lakes have forced the Federal Water Pollution Control Administration to issue requirements for minimum water standards for each State with an interstate stream. Since the Big Sioux River is an interstate river, studies are needed to determine its quality. According to the South Dakota Committee on Water Pollution, water pollution in South Dakota originates from agricultural, municipal, and industrial wastes. For the Big Sioux River, the municipal and meat-processing wastes are the important sources of pollution. Little is known of the sanitary bacteriological quality of rivers and lakes in South Dakota. …
The Relationship Of Hitting Ability In Baseball To Selected Anatomical Measurements And Motor Responses, Larry Lester Edlund
The Relationship Of Hitting Ability In Baseball To Selected Anatomical Measurements And Motor Responses, Larry Lester Edlund
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Batters in all classifications of baseball, whether on the little league level or on the major league level, consistently strive for hitting proficiency. They know that baseball games are won by scoring runs. Hitting is a very important part of baseball but even the best hitters fail more than sixty percent of the time to hit safely. An example of this problem is evident in surveying the averages of the batting champions of the National and American League. During the years of 1928, 1948, and 1968, the National League batting champions had averages of 387, .376, and .335, respectively, and …

Manpower Training Programs In South Dakota : Socio-Economic Attributes Of Participants Associated With Training Outcomes, James W. Delong
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Because of the unemployment, underemployment, poverty and occupational opportunity problems experienced in South Dakota, it is appropriate that manpower programs currently operating in the State be studied. To maximize the potential benefits of these programs it is necessary to understand their structure, their purpose, their goals and their effects. Likewise, the extent of participation in the programs should be determined along with finding out what type of trainee is benefitting the least or the most from the training experience. There has been considerable research into a wide spectrum of manpower programs and manpower needs in urban areas; however, relatively little …

The Relationship Of Jump Shooting Ability In Basketball To Selected Measurable Traits, Donald F. Dahl
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The game of basketball has undergone changes over the years and today it is a fast-moving game wherein all of the players have an opportunity to score. The very nature of the game indicates that accurate shooting is essential to the final outcome. Sharmin stated the obvious, that in basketball, the team which wins scores more points than its opponent, and “Accurate shooting is the backbone of the game." This idea is supported by Benington and Newall who stated that "The skill of shooting has probably developed more than any other aspect of the game of basketball." Part of the …

An Arab Perspective On The Rubaiyyat Of Omar Khayyam, Elias Agel
An Arab Perspective On The Rubaiyyat Of Omar Khayyam, Elias Agel
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Since this study is concerned with a comparative study of the Rubaiyyat in both Arabic and English poetry, and since the main purpose is to arrive at some understanding of the Rubaiyyat through a knowledge of the Islamic literature, it is essential here to give a short introductory note of some technical terms and facts about the Arabic language and Arabic poetry in particular. In general, there is a great difference between the structure of Semitic languages and Indo-European languages, and hence between English and Arabic. The most characteristic feature of the Arabic language is that the great majority of …

Urban Insurrections: A Multi-Disciplinary Approach Toward An Integrated Typology, James Russell Stewart
Urban Insurrections: A Multi-Disciplinary Approach Toward An Integrated Typology, James Russell Stewart
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility and appropriateness of employing a multi-disciplinary approach in the study of urban insurrections in an effort to construct a typology which would include all of the elements common to each disorder. The multi-disciplinary method is necessitated by the biases which are inherent in any analysis that is restricted to either a psychological, sociological, or politico-historical treatment of episodes of collective behavior. All of the disciplines make major contributions to any analysis, but it is the contention of this writer that the disciplines must be integrated before the most accurate depiction …

An Electronic Ordering System For Table Service Restaurants, Thomas A. Roman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
As the title of this paper suggests, we have designed an ordering system for table service restaurants. The "ordering system" is the process of communication from customer-to-waitress-to-cook. In this first chapter, some of the problems which occur in table service restaurants will be briefly discussed and described to give the reader an idea of what this ordering system will attempt to solve. The specific problems and the proposed solution will be pointed out. The reader is probably asking, "Just what is a table service restaurant?'' A service restaurant is a restaurant where there is some type of service provided--by waitresses, …
