Design And Testing Of A Downhole Continuous Wave Generator, Cole L. Smith Jan 1968

Design And Testing Of A Downhole Continuous Wave Generator, Cole L. Smith

Masters Theses

"The continuous shear wave generator was designed to be the first instrument capable of producing a continuous high frequency signal below the weathered layer of the earth. This is to be accomplished by placing the instrument in a bore hole and lowering it below the weathered layer where the higher frequencies are severely attenuated. The generator produced a measurable signal output with the output force being approximately 11 pounds force. Testing of the generator showed the necessity of using a spring system with a low natural frequency. The testing also indicated several improvements which should be made in the generator …


A Comparison Of Proportional And Nonproportional Damping In Multistory Shear Buildings, Edwin C. Bailey Jan 1968

A Comparison Of Proportional And Nonproportional Damping In Multistory Shear Buildings, Edwin C. Bailey

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this study was to determine whether proportional damping could be used to satisfactorily simulate the more practical nonproportional damping condition in multistory shear buildings. To accomplish this one computer program was written to analyze proportionally damped systems and another to analyze nonproportionally damped systems, each giving as output the frequencies, mode shapes, displacements, shears and moments and the maximum shears and moments. Shear buildings of two, three and four stories were studied in which the damping coefficients were varied from one to ten percent of critical damping. Although the programs could handle various other types, only linearly …


Effects Of Pressure On The Mechanical Properties Of Magnesium, Joseph George Hoeg Jan 1968

Effects Of Pressure On The Mechanical Properties Of Magnesium, Joseph George Hoeg

Masters Theses

"The data collected in an attempt to evaluate the pressure dependency of the mechanical properties of extruded AZ31B-F magnesium alloy are presented herein. This information was compiled from the results of compression tests run in hydraulic fluid environments pressurized to 50,000 psi, and tension tests run in the atmosphere. Specimen axial load and longitudinal strain were recorded and converted to effective stress and effective strain parameters for presentation. The term pressure is defined, in this report, as the negative average of the principal stresses or, essentially, the negative of the hydrostatic component of stress. The effective stress and strain, at …


Waveform Distortion Caused By A Plasma Sheath, James R. Carl Jan 1968

Waveform Distortion Caused By A Plasma Sheath, James R. Carl

Masters Theses

"A short burst of electromagnetic energy that propagates into and through a plasma medium can react with the plasma medium in several different ways depending on both the characteristics of the plasma and of the pulse. This thesis derives approximations for the plasma transfer function at low pressure (high altitude) and at high pressure (low altitude). The mechanisms that can change the shape of a waveform, in general, are dispersion and breakdown. dispersive distortion at low altitude is shown to exist for electron concentrations well above the resonant concentration for plasma sheaths that are thin compared to one wavelength. Several …


The Computer-Aided Generation Of Flow-Tables For Asynchronous Sequential Circuits, Ronald Lee Altman Jan 1968

The Computer-Aided Generation Of Flow-Tables For Asynchronous Sequential Circuits, Ronald Lee Altman

Masters Theses

"One step in the synthesis of asynchronous sequential circuits is the construction of a flow table. This paper discusses the requirements of a computer program to allow on-line generation of flow tables for asynchronous sequential circuits. Such topics as the form of the data entered into the program, the type of terminal required, the routines necessary for the designer to enter and correct data, and the internal data structure are discussed. An algorithm for the generation of these flow tables is also presented"--Abstract, page ii.


The Compressibility Of Preconsolidated Till, William H. Koechlein Jan 1968

The Compressibility Of Preconsolidated Till, William H. Koechlein

Masters Theses

"Preconsolidated glacial till was tested "in-situ" with the Geoprobe and in the laboratory on undisturbed soil samples. The two soil testing methods were compared and three tests; consolidation, "thin-cake", and Geoprobe were analyzed to see if a more rapid method for determining the preconsolidation stress of soil could be developed. When comparing Geoprobe results to laboratory results for foundation conditions, it was found the two methods agreed on bearing capacity but differed significantly on settlement. The three tests analyzed for determining the preconsolidation stress indicated they are a function of preconsolidation stress even though there was variation in the test …
