A Historical Study Of Furniture Design: With Emphasis On Development Of A Historical Desk Reference, Joel T. Gundlach Jan 1993

A Historical Study Of Furniture Design: With Emphasis On Development Of A Historical Desk Reference, Joel T. Gundlach

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This focus on an informational desk reference in the area of furniture design is a result of personal participation by the author in the area of furniture design. As an educator of furniture design the author finds it necessary to expand his knowledge base on the history of furniture so as to better satisfy the needs of the student. The information presented in this project contains time periods, movements, trends, descriptions and photographs that describe the time evolution of furniture from 1600 to 1970. A booklet will be developed utilizing this information to serve as a desk reference for students …


Theoretical And Experimental Investigation Of An Axially Loaded Heat Pipe, Brian Grayson Hager Jan 1993

Theoretical And Experimental Investigation Of An Axially Loaded Heat Pipe, Brian Grayson Hager

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

An axially loaded heat pipe, with a length to diameter ratio of unity, has been theoretically and experimentally investigated. Water and methanol have been used as the working fluids and the container material is oxygen-free hard copper. The limits used to define the operation of a conventional fixed-conductance heat pipe have been modified so that the operation of the axially loaded heat pipe could be predicted. The results of this analysis conclude that the axially loaded geometry will reach a boiling limit far before reaching the capillary limit. The axially loaded heat pipe was processed with 3.1 grams of doubly …

Analysis And Synthesis Of Siso H[Subscript Infinity] Controllers, Emilio Kourany Hammerschlag Jan 1993

Analysis And Synthesis Of Siso H[Subscript Infinity] Controllers, Emilio Kourany Hammerschlag

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Classical feedback control theories are traditionally concerned with issues like stability and performance, however, they typically fail to address issues such as robustness and plant perturbation. This thesis is concerned with the robust stability and the robust performance of single-input single-output plants. The basic issue under analysis is how to realize the benefits of the usual feedback control structure in the presence of model uncertainty. This is accomplished by seeking feedback controllers providing robust stability and performance by minimizing weighted sensitivity functions of a linear system represented by its transfer function. A characterization of models for plants with unstructured uncertainty …

Generic Strategies, Leader Attributes, Environmental Uncertainty, And Organizational Performance: An Empirical Investigation Of Contingencies And Configurational Outcomes, Tope Adeyemi-Bello May 1992

Generic Strategies, Leader Attributes, Environmental Uncertainty, And Organizational Performance: An Empirical Investigation Of Contingencies And Configurational Outcomes, Tope Adeyemi-Bello

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The implications of strategy, environmental uncertainty, and leader attributes to the performance of organizations have been the subject of many research studies. The traditional interaction-based contingency approach that has typically been used in the management literature for examining the interrelationships between these variables, may very often be inadequate to capture the overall pattern of fit among them. A contemporary approach that allows researchers to examine sophisticated relationships between variables is configuration or systems theory— which suggests that inevitable relationships exist between strategic, environmental, contextual, and organizational variables and performance. This study used both the interaction and configuration-based approaches to determine …
