A Comparison Of Choice And Forced Alcohol Consumption And Alcohol Dehydrogenase Activity, David Bertsch Gray Apr 1970

A Comparison Of Choice And Forced Alcohol Consumption And Alcohol Dehydrogenase Activity, David Bertsch Gray

Masters Theses

Earlier studies using both mice and rats have revealed a significant, positive correlation between preference of alcohol concentration and activity of the liver enzyme, alcohol dehydrogenase. In this study two groups of Sprague- Dawley rats, matched for sex, were presented alcohol by either a choice or forced condition for three twelve day periods in a choice-forced-choice or forced-choice-forced sequence. Data were recorded as the amount of alcohol - consumed under each consumption condition. After the rats were sacrificed, their livers were removed and assays were made for the alcohol dehydrogenase activity. While several correlations between consumption and alcohol dehydrogenase activity …

A Study Of The Composite Action Of Light Gage Steel Deck And Concrete, Charles Sherman Bach Jr. Jan 1970

A Study Of The Composite Action Of Light Gage Steel Deck And Concrete, Charles Sherman Bach Jr.

Masters Theses

"This thesis is on the investigation of corrugated light-gage steel sheets used as the tension reinforcement for concrete slabs. The steel sheets used had embossments placed at uniform intervals over the entire length of the sheets. The composite concrete and light-gage deck steel were tested to determine a method of design for this type of composite section from an economical, safe and practical standpoint. The investigation covered the flexural, shear and bond capacity of this type of composite section"--Abstract, page ii.


Metallographic Study Of Phase Changes In Heat Treated Ductile Iron, Mahendra Vadilal Desai Jan 1970

Metallographic Study Of Phase Changes In Heat Treated Ductile Iron, Mahendra Vadilal Desai

Masters Theses

"Continuous cast ductile iron samples were hardened. It was found that carbide dissolved in the austenite faster than graphite and that this material requires higher austenitizing temperatures and longer austenitizing time than steels. Tempered microstructures were affected by the prior austenitizing treatment and it appeared that the amount of carbon dissolved in the austenite determined the tempered microstructure. Several attempts to determine the austenite grain size indicated that it is not as easy to determine in ductile iron as in steels. Two techniques, heat etching and an isothermal transformation method, were found to reveal prior austenite grain size. It was …

Electric Field Strength Dependency Of The Rate Of Radiation Induced Degradation In Silicon Planar Devices, Cyrus Hoshang Irani Jan 1970

Electric Field Strength Dependency Of The Rate Of Radiation Induced Degradation In Silicon Planar Devices, Cyrus Hoshang Irani

Masters Theses

"The investigation of electric field strength dependence of the rate of damage introduction, caused by gamma and neutron irradiations in matched is reported. Groups of devices (with varying biases applied to the emitter-base and collector-base junctions to allow study of the electric field strength dependence) were exposed to ionizing gamma radiation from a Co-60 source. Similar experiments were conducted to study the field strength dependence of the rate of space-charge volume damage introduction, caused by fast neutrons (E> l0keV, fission source). The experimental results indicate that the rate of surface degradation, as reflected by the increase of the normalized surface …


A Study Of The Design And Construction Of A Full Scale Aircraft Component Demonstration Fatigue Test, Stephen Andrew Wright Jan 1970

A Study Of The Design And Construction Of A Full Scale Aircraft Component Demonstration Fatigue Test, Stephen Andrew Wright

Masters Theses

"The objective of this project was to design and build a full scale demonstration fatigue test for a Piper Aztec stabilator. A general discussion of the construction is included in this report. The Fourier series method of the aerodynamic theory of spanwise loading was used to determine the load distribution. The results show a close relationship with data furnished by Piper Aircraft Corporation. Fatigue theory is discussed in order to provide background for fatigue testing. The test specimen, methods and procedures of testing, known loading methods and systems, safety, etc., are discussed. Federal requirements for regulating and testing of aircraft …


An Approximate Min-Max Solution To The Identification Problem, Richard Loyd Warren Jan 1970

An Approximate Min-Max Solution To The Identification Problem, Richard Loyd Warren

Masters Theses

"A technique based on the min-max error criterion is proposed for identifying a dynamic system in terms of a discrete-time model from the system response to a deterministic input. A linear, single-input/single-output, lumped-parameter, time-invariant (at least during the measurement interval) system is assumed. Although the resulting problem is non-linear, it is shown that linear programming techniques are applicable if a realistic approximation is made. The technique is implemented on the digital computer and evaluated by considering a number of typical discrete-time systems. The effects of additive noise are also considered"--Abstract, page ii.


The Effect Of Solvents On The Desorption Of Phenol From Carbon, Robert Harold Pahl Jan 1970

The Effect Of Solvents On The Desorption Of Phenol From Carbon, Robert Harold Pahl

Masters Theses

"The desorption of phenol from active carbon was studied using cyclic and continuous flow desorbers. A wide difference in desorption capabilities was shown among nine solvents. The system employed was complex, with water being present in addition to phenol on the carbon. An attempt to correlate the desorption data with the physical properties of the phenol and solvent and Regular Solution theory are presented. A thermodynamic approach using the linear free energy-enthalpy relationship produced an apparently good correlation of the heat of formation of the phenol-solvent hydrogen bond with the desorption data. This indicates that the desorption of the phenol …


Digital Simulation Of A Signal Conditioner/Bit Synchronizer, Quentin Reed Webb Jan 1970

Digital Simulation Of A Signal Conditioner/Bit Synchronizer, Quentin Reed Webb

Masters Theses

"A bit rate filter type signal conditioner/bit synchronizer used in a split-phase PCM system is modeled digitally in three stages to determine overall system performance. General computer algorithms are developed to approximate independent operation of each major segment within the device. Bit rate effects and signal time-base error are investigated yielding the characteristic G-curves for the phase detector. These characteristics facilitate subsequent analysis of a linear equivalent digital-data-transition tracking phase-locked loop under several typical time-base error input conditions. Using bit error probabilities as performance criteria, the conditioner/synchronizer is found to perform adequately at signal-to-noise ratios exceeding +10dB. For inputs below …


A Comparative Study Of Experimental And Computed Compressibility Factors Of Ethane-Carbon Dioxide-Nitrogen System, Brij Raj Misra Jan 1970

A Comparative Study Of Experimental And Computed Compressibility Factors Of Ethane-Carbon Dioxide-Nitrogen System, Brij Raj Misra

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this study was to provide compressibility factor data on the ethane - carbon dioxide - nitrogen system. Compressibility factors were experimentally determined for 5 mixtures at room temperature, 100ºF, 125ºF , 150ºF and pressures ranging between 1000 psig to 4000 psig. An attempt was also made to compare the experimental data with the compressibility factors obtained by the additive volume method. The deviation of the computed compressibility factor from the experimental data was found to be in accordance with the general view of previous workers. However, the deviation was found to be a maximum in the pressure …


Fracture Surface Energy Determinations Of High Density Polycrystalline Ceramics, Gene Arthur Pahlmann Jan 1970

Fracture Surface Energy Determinations Of High Density Polycrystalline Ceramics, Gene Arthur Pahlmann

Masters Theses

"Values of fracture surface energy were measured for steatite, zircon, mullite and four densities of alumina. Rods of these high density materials were cut into thin rectangular specimens which were notched and broken in three-point loading. The resulting load necessary for fracture of the specimens was used to calculate the fracture surface energy of the materials. The value for the steatite was around 20,000 ergs/cm². The values for the zircon and mullite were on the order of 13,000 ergs/cm², and the values for the aluminas ranged from 17,000 to 24,000 ergs/cm²"--Abstract, page ii.
