Time And Soil Development On Lateral Moraines, Martin River Glacier, South-Central Alaska, John R. Tinker Jr.

Theses and Dissertations

During the summer of 1966, eighteen soil profiles on a series of 21 lateral moraines, were studied to ascertain the relationship of time to soil development. The moraines are located on Charlotte Ridge on the south margin of the Martin River Glacier in south-central Alaska. The elevation of the highest moraine is approximately fifteen hundred feet and is located 800 feet above the present level of the glacier.

To determine the direct effect of time on soil formation, the remaining soil forming factors were kept constant; the soil pits were located so that relief, exposure, and vegetation of the sites …

Ore Controls And Formation Of The Ore-Bearing Structures In The Idarado Mines, San Miguel And Ouray Counties, Colorado, S. R. Sanjines

Theses and Dissertations

Two major ore-bearing veins were studied on two levels in the Idarado mine, on the northwestern flank of the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado. The Argentine vein, striking N. 10°-20° W. and dipping 75°-85° W., and the Cross vein, striking N. 45°-50° W. and dipping 50° W. represent the two systems to which all productive veins of the mine belong. Although not formed simultaneously, all veins represent mid-Tertiary mineralization associated with volcanism that formed the San Juan Mountains. Vein minerals are galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, silver (probably as sulfides), and gold in a gangue of pyrite, quartz, calcite and epidote. …

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this paper is to study and evaluate the Japaenese program relative to the Mongol question. Some questions to consider would be: What relationship was there between the Hsingan provinces and the Manchukuo government and why? What specific Mongol programs did the Japanese promote and why? What were the results? How did the Mongols react? What designs did the Japanese have in Outer Mongolia and Inner Mongolia relative to her key position in Eastern Mongolia? Why and how did China and Russia react to Japan's plans and what were the results? How did the Mongol react to the …

Drag Coefficients For Magnetically Accelerated Spheres, Jann-Wuu Liang

Theses and Dissertations

The objective of this study was to determine the correlation of the drag coefficient of an accelerating sphere in the liquid medium over a range of Reynolds number from 0.1 to 100, 000. A magnetic accelerator was used to obtain an acceleration for the sphere, the data was recorded using a photograph and a digital computer was used to reduce the data.

Land Utilization Of Burke County, North Dakota, Lowell R. Goodman

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis Is a land utilization study of Burke County. The county has two distinct physical regions, thus two distinct forms of agriculture are practiced. Grain farming Is dominant on the Drift Prairie and mixed livestock and grain farming are common on the more rugged terrain of the Missouri Plateau.

Further study reveals that a definite loss of population, both rural and urban, is in progress. The greatest out-migration is composed of younger people and senior citizens, leaving a middle age group as the dominant segment of the population. This loss of population is expected to continue.

Average farm size …

The Effect Of Technical Changes In Industry On Teaching Bookkeeping In High School, Joania Parsche Sr.

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine: (a) employment policies concerning high school graduates; (b) use of types of adding and calculating machines as well as computers; (c) types of activities performed; and (d) attitudes and skills of applicants.

Business firms in cities in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin were chosen rather subjectively for this study. Letters and questionnaires were sent to them. A 99 per cent return was obtained. Data was analyzed and tabulated.

The findings present: (a) employment policies concerning high school graduates and activities they will perform, attitudes most preferred by employers in employees, and types …

The Controlled Oxidation Of Leonardite, Vijay R. Purandare

Theses and Dissertations

The controlled oxidation or dissolved leonardite was carried out in a heated autoclave under elevated oxygen pressure. Oxidation was carried out in order to increase the acidity oi: leonardite and obtain higher humic acid yields. The solvent was an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide in the range of concentrations from 1% to 8%. The reaction temperature was varied from 25°C to 125°C; the pressure was kept at 500 psig and reaction time was constant at one hour. The product was analyzed both for carboxylic acid and for hydroxyl groups.

The Increase in carboxyl and hydroxyl groups was slight under the …

Sintering Characteristics Of Lignite Ash, Merwin L. Odenbaugh

Theses and Dissertations

The relationship of the sintering characteristics of lignite ash to the known fouling tendency of the ash was investigated.

The investigation includes the determination of the temperature at which sintering begins and the correlation of fouling tendency of the ash to the compressive strength developed during the sintering of ash specimens. The significance of sample preparation, sodium content, and treatment temperature was determined by statistical analysis of the data.

The temperature at which sintering begins was determined for samples of ash prepared in the laboratory. Differences in this sinter temperature were observed for samples with different fouling tendencies. The sinter …

Investigation On The Performance Characteristics Of Two Valveless Pulse Jets Operating In Phase Opposition, Donald A. Moen

Theses and Dissertations

The investigation was suggested by an earlier investigation done on a single valveless pulse jet engine at the University of North Dakota by Roger W. Engebretson. It was thought that if two of these engines could be coupled in such a manner that they would fire alternatively, the performance per engine could be improved. A literature search indicated that, while valved pulse jets had been successfully operated in the described manner, no one had previously operated two valveless pulse jet engines in phase opposition.

The objective of this project was to design a device for coupling two of these engines …

Meadow, Millard County, Utah: The Geography Of A Small Mormon Agricultural Community, Richard H. Jackson

Theses and Dissertations

The agricultural village was the basis of the original economy of Utah established by the Mormon settlers, but it has since been supplanted in importance by the industrial and commercial activities of the large centers of the Wasatch Front counties of Salt Lake, Weber, and Utah. This study was conducted in an attempt to determine the future of those communities removed from industrialized northern Utah. The village of Meadow, Millard County, was chosen as an example and it was subjected to a detailed geographic analysis. From this analysis conclusions have been drawn regarding its future.
