The Downhole Suspension And Testing Of An Electrodynamic Shear Wave Exciter, Robert Franklin Kehrman

Masters Theses

"The work in this research project was aimed at designing a Downhole Electromagnetic Shear Wave Generator capable of delivering a wide frequency band, random, continuous signal. This Exciter was built using a compressed-air driven piston assembly for downhole application. The device was tested in the laboratory in a concrete test facility. It proved to be capable of transmitting a continuous, measurable stress into the concrete in a 100 to 5,000 hertz frequency band"--Abstract, page ii.

The Inert Gas Effect On The Rate Of Evaporation Of Zinc And Cadmium, Chu Sheng Wu

Masters Theses

"An experimental study has been made to investigate the effect of argon and helium on the rate of evaporation of zinc and cadmium under one atmosphere pressure at temperatures ranging from 500⁰C to 850⁰C. The experimental results were compared with the maximum rates calculated using the effusion formula as well as with values obtained using three different types of equations based on kinetic theory, diffusion theory, and empirical data. The rate of evaporation in this study appeared to be diffusion controlled. Equations have been derived for expressing the rate of evaporation of zinc and cadmium in both argon and helium …

Measurement Of Demagnetizing Factor Of Ring-Core, Subhashchandra Chimanlal Patel

Masters Theses

"A method has been presented to measure the demagnetizing factor of ring-cores. First the incremental apparent permeability and the incremental true permeability were measured at different degrees of saturation and then the demagnetizing factor was determined from those results. The cores used were tape would ring-cores of mean length of 8.0 cm. The method was found suitable for cores with 1/4 mil or thicker tape, but was in question for the 1/8 mil tape core tested"--Abstract, page ii.

Estimation Of Film Boiling Heat Transfer Coefficients For Cylindrical Heaters In Corresponding States Fluids, Gary Joseph Capone

Masters Theses

"An investigation of film boiling heat transfer was made with cylindrical heaters. The (0.75" O.D.) gold plated, copper heaters were positioned horizontally in pools of liquid argon, nitrogen, and carbon monoxide. A correlation for film boiling corresponding states fluids is derived and discussed. The correlation is a least squares fit of three variables: the diameter of the cylindrical heater, the reduced pressure of the system, and the temperature difference between the heater surface and the saturated pool"--Abstract, page iii.

Surface Interactions Between Nickel Ions And Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, Ralph Edward Coleman

Masters Theses

"In this research the interaction of nickel ions with the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate at the liquid-air interface was studied. Surface tension measurements were performed on pure sodium dodecyl sulfate solutions, with and without the addition of nickel ions. Results of these measurements showed that the addition of nickel ions lowered the equilibrium surface tension values of pure sodium dodecyl sulfate solutions and shifted the critical micelle concentration to lower concentrations. The foam fractionation technique was used to determine if the nickel ions could be removed from surfactant solutions. It was found that the removal of nickel ions was influenced …

Infrared Related Solid State Studies, Donald George Rathbun

Masters Theses

"Infrared reflectivity measurements have been made on single crystal CdS. Classical dispersion analysis has been used in an analysis of the data to obtain the index of refraction, the extinction index, and the dispersion parameters. These are compared with previously published results. The procedure used in this analysis has been outlined for future reference. Also, the shallow donor impurity theory has been used to numerically calculate the d_±1 levels for Si and Ge. The theory is extended for the case of the impurity in the bulk semiconductor and the d₀, d_±2 and, for high n, the s, p₀, …

The Geology Of The Thayer Area Emphasizing The Stratigraphy Of The Cotter And The Jefferson City Formations, William Jesse Hedden

Masters Theses

"Detailed geologic mapping of the Cotter-Jefferson City formational contact in the Thayer, Missouri area demonstrates the feasibility of using this contact. This mapping also delineates significant faulting in the area.

The stratigraphy of the Cotter and Jefferson City formations in the Thayer area has been studied to find a mappable contact between the two formations. The contact was mapped in this area by using marker beds, the stratigraphic positions of which were determined by applying insoluble residue techniques to outcrop sections. Because the insoluble residue zones of the Cotter and Jefferson City formations are recognizable throughout the state of Missouri …

Design And Construction Of A Liquid Nitrogen Cryostat For Use In A Swimming Pool Type Reactor, Bruce B. Joiner

Masters Theses

"The continued expansion of the nuclear reactor facility and the nuclear engineering program dictates the need that a liquid nitrogen cooled cryostat be available at the reactor. This unit would be available for use in graduate and undergraduate laboratories and for graduate research. A liquid nitrogen cooled cryostat capable of maintaining a sample between 77°K to 80°K for an extended period of time in or adjacent to the core of the reactor was designed, constructed, and successfully operated. Recommendations were made for possible modifications to expand the versatility of the system"--Abstract, page ii.

Sufficiency Conditions For Constrained Optima, Cheng-Chun Huang

Masters Theses

"The sufficiency conditions for constrained optimization problems are derived through the use of Lagrangian functions and through the introduction of the new concept of "constrained total derivatives." The relations can be used with equality and/or inequality constraints. The sufficiency conditions derived earlier by Phipps were corrected in this work--Abstract, page ii.

Design Of A Sequential Detector, Scott William Abel

Masters Theses

"The communication engineer has in the past treated the detection problem from a limited point of view. Detectors have been designed to reach a decision based on a specified number of samples. This approach has proved valuable, but it offers no provisions for an early decision if a conclusion becomes obvious early in the sampling. Neither is there an opportunity for additional sampling if necessary to reach a definite conclusion, because of these limitations it is desirable to find more general detectors. This study looks at a specific statistics (the sign test) and designs a sequential detector to utilize this …
