Stability Investigation Of Pipe-Line Suspension Bridges, Ten-Hsi Chen

Masters Theses

“This thesis presents an analysis of the behavior of pipe line suspension bridges under the action of wind. From this analysis a differential equation of vertical vibration is derived and solved, and the possible methods of preventing its vibration are discussed and suggested”--Abstract, page ii.

Minimum Frictional Characteristics Of Optimum Journal Bearings., Navinchandra F. Shah

Masters Theses

"This investigation was conducted to develop a graphical representation to determine the optimum bearing conditions for minimum friction and to establish a theoretical approach for journal bearing design.

A series of graphs has been plotted for· the coefficient of friction versus the eccentricity ratio based on the. Sommerfeld number derived from Reynolds' differential equation, f or optimum journal bearings.

The results obtained in this research have been compared with those developed by other investigators. This comparison confirms the validity of the results presented in this thesis, so that it could be used advantageously for the design of optimum journal bearings"-- …

Solubility And Structure Studies Of Nickel (Ii) Acetate, Richard J. Baird

Masters Theses

"The effects of ammonium acetate on the solubility of anhydrous nickel (II) acetate in anhydrous acetic acid was investigated and was found to behave similar to the zinc (II), copper (II), and cobalt (II) systems. Problems with equilibrium, encountered by previous investigators, were overcome. The determination of the structure of nickel (II) acetate hemiacetate was atacked by infrared studies, preparation of adducts, cryoscopic studies, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and absorption spectra. It was found that nickel (II) acetate hemiacetate is octahedrally coordinated with two coordination sites vacant. It was shown that the binuclear cage structure common to copper (II), chromium (II), …

A Laboratory Model Study Of Fluid Cross Flow., James Gary Fore

Masters Theses

"A procedure for scaling and operating a laboratory model for the purpose of studying fluid crossflow between zones of different permeability is presented. A modified existing model is used to simulate conditions for three dimensional, incompressible, two-phase flow through a two-layer, unconsolidated, homogeneous porous medium.

Eight tests were made to show effects on crossflow between the zones. Qualitative results indicate crossflow from the high to the low permeability zone for various perforation ratios and mobility ratios"--Abstract, p. ii

A Numerical Study Of Van Der Pol's Nonlinear Differential Equation For Various Values Of The Parameter E., Charles C. Limbaugh

Masters Theses

"This paper briefly reviews the geometric concepts associated with nonlinear differential equations and then proceeds to a study of the homogeneous van der Pol equation. After studying the method of Kryloff and Bogoliuboff for small values of the parameter €, the author makes a numerical study of the equation using Hamrning's Method for the numerical solution. Several trajectories and the phase plane are shown for E = 0.1, 1.0, and 5.0. The author then studies one of the analytic theories, i.e., the method of Cartwright and Littlewood, and indicates some of the other analyses for large €"--Abstract, p. ii

An Analysis Of Cytological Screening For Cervical Cancer (A 7 Year Survey), Phoebe E. Rutherford

Masters Theses

Introduction

It is the purpose of this study to review the cervical cancers, stained by Papanicolaou (1956:3-6) method, at Borgess Hospital, Kalamazoo, Michigan, from September, 1956 to September 1963.

A previous analysis of the cytological screening at Borgess Hospital to ascertain the per coat accuracy in cervical diagnoses, was made by the investigator in June, 1961. This study, covering a four year period, draw attention to the fact that the patients with invasive carcinoma were in a much older age group than any other reported series studies. This fact plus the rapid recognition, by physicians and patients, of the value …

A Comparative Study Of Greenup And Toledo, Illinois, Edgar W. Morgan

Masters Theses

The purpose of this study is to make a comparative analysis of Greenup and Toledo, Illinois. The intent is to investigate and compare the historical origin, reasons for settlement, early development, growth patterns, industry, lines of transportation, and elements of similarity and difference between the towns.

Included in the study are interpretations presented as to why the towns grew up so close together, why one became larger than the other, why the one became the county-seat and still remained smaller, how industry and transportation are important to these communities, and the ultimate character which has evolved for each community. Also …
