Hydrothermal Alteration Of Ash-Flow Tuffs In The Indian Peak District Of Southwestern Utah, Michael Allan Tolley

Masters Theses

"Careful petrographic study of the ash-flow tuffs in the Indian Peak District of southwestern Utah reveals hydrothermal alteration around the fluorite veins. The alteration minerals themselves and the intensity of alteration vary with distance from the veins. Primary plagioclase has altered to secondary feldspar, calcite, sericite, and traces of epidote and zoisite. Hornblende and biotite have altered to chlorite, calcite, and secondary iron oxide, and traces of epidote and zoisite. Diopside has changed to calcite and secondary iron oxide. An overall picture of the mining district shows that certain minerals increase and others decrease as one nears the veins. Hydrothermal …

A Kinetic Study Of The Reductive Abilities Of Four Polyaminocarboxylic Acids (Edta, Cdta, Dtpa And Nta) Towards Cerium(Iv) In Perchloric Acid Media, Salem Ahmed Attiga

Masters Theses

"The reduction of Ce(IV) in HC10₄ solutions by four polyaminocarboxylic acids, which are commonly used as chelating agents, has been studied by the stopped-flow technique. The rates of reduction first increase with increasing acidity, reach maxima which are characteristic of the chelating agent and the medium, then progressively decrease with increasing the acid concentration in the media. At their maximum reactivities, trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane tetraacetic acid (CDTA) shows the highest reductive ability; this is followed by ethylenedinitrilotetraacetic acid (EDTA), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), and finally nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA). The observed maxima can be qualitatively explained in terms of a mechanism which involves unhydrolyzed …

A Hardware And Software Interface Between A Graphics Terminal And The Scc 650 Computer, George Irvin Rhine Jr.

Masters Theses

"This paper describes the design of a digital interface between a graphic terminal and the SCC-650 computer. The graphic terminal-computer combination can be used as a stand alone system for small applications or can be used as a satellite processor for a larger system such as the IBM System 360, The interface is designed utilizing DTL NAND type integrated circuits. Its primary functions may be divided into three main categories: (1) to give level conversion, (2) control, and (3) data manipulation. All requests for data transfers are initiated by the computer, the interface then assumes a control mode which handles …

Perturbation And Sensitivity Analysis Of An Urban Model, Nicola Ann Nelson

Masters Theses

"This work describes a sensitivity analysis of the nine major system variables of the urban model postulated by Dr. Jay W. Forrester in his book Urban Dynamics. This model simulates the growth of a city from a nearly empty land area through a 250 year life cycle. Using small perturbations about the system trajectories, sensitivity matrices were computed at 135 years (growth period) and 240 years (equilibrium). The results show a matrix heavily weighted to give large sensitivity coefficients to the three housing variables, the PH sector being the most sensitive. Each of the housing sectors was analyzed further to …

A System Study Of A Computerized Grocery Store, Neal Joseph Martini

Masters Theses

"This thesis is a system study of a computer controlled grocery store. Previous work has been done in the area of computerized inventory control, and computerized checkout lines in grocery stores, but the system proposed in this thesis is to control the movement and handling of the products as orders are automatically filled. In the preliminary part of the system study, a comparison between a time shared computer service and a minicomputer is done, which results in the selection of a minicomputer for this control system. Then the general control system is presented, and the system interfacing and control for …

The Use Of Semiconductor Memories In Drug Dispensing, James John De Largy

Masters Theses

"This paper presents the problems encountered and the methods used during the design of an electronic system to be an integral part of a medical drug dispensing machine. The system has a memory composed of both random access and read only memories to enable it to operate, along with many such machines , from one data input line. The system accepts information such as patient's name, social security number, and drug location number. It also provides signal drive to an attached printer in order to reproduce this information for use on the drug label. Finally, the system electronics accepts input …

The Cytogenetics Of The Salivary Gland Chromosomes Of Three Wild Type Strains Of Drosophila Melanogaster, Rosemary Ann Harris

Masters Theses

This investigation involves the cytogenetics of three strains of field-collected, wild-type Illinois Drosophila melanogaster. These three strains were collected from Charleston, Channahon, and Olney, Illinois, in 1967.

The purpose of this study was to compare cytogenetically these three strains and to determine if there exists differences among them. First, the chromosomes themselves were studied for the purpose of identifying the four chromosomes of D. melanogaster by their characteristic banding patterns. Then, the chromosomes of the three strains were examined for chromosomal aberrations, principally inversions. The cytogenetics of the chromosomes of the three strains were then compared and contrasted.

Differential Effects Of Various Language Sampling Procedures On Children's Verbal Output, Wanda G. Webb

Masters Theses

The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether differences exist among four dlfferent language sampling procedures as to measures of communicative competence. Specifically, three questions were posed:

1. Do statistically significant differences exist among obtained LCI scores for the following procedures for evoking child language samples: (1) Toys, (2) Verbal Directives, (3) Child-generated Pictures, and (4) Radio Telemetry.
2. If differences exist, are they manifested in: (1) Noun Phrase One, (2) Verb Phrase One, (3) Noun Phrase Two.
3. What is the frequency of occurrence of the obtained grammatical structures for the sampling procedure yielding the highest LCI scores?
