The Supreme Court's Use Of Per Curiam Dispositions: The Connection To Oral Argument, Stephen L. Wasby, Steven Peterson, James Shubert, Glendon Shubert Nov 1992

The Supreme Court's Use Of Per Curiam Dispositions: The Connection To Oral Argument, Stephen L. Wasby, Steven Peterson, James Shubert, Glendon Shubert

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This study is an empirical examination of a set of the Supreme Court's per curiam rulings issued after oral argument between 1969 and 1981. The authors use transcripts of Supreme Court oral argument and the Court's opinions to untangle relationships between oral argument and dispositions, particularly when the Court does not reach the merits. The authors note that oral argument clarifies issues and helps the justices narrow them. The Court's comments in its per curiam dispositions indicate that oral argument is relevant for the Court's dispositions and at times it has been more determinative of outcomes, for example, when counsel's …

Performance Of Edge Operators Under Varying Imaging Conditions, Ching-Wei Chang Nov 1992

Performance Of Edge Operators Under Varying Imaging Conditions, Ching-Wei Chang

Theses

A method has been devised for performing edge operations with various edge operators under varying imaging conditions and for quantitatively comparing the results of each edge operator. Both computer-simulated targets and real targets are employed, and experiments in both cases showed that the Sobel operator and Kirsch Compass Gradient Mask are better than the Highpass and Laplacian filters in the performance of edge operation.

Electronic-To-Vibrational (E → V) Energy Transfer From Br* To Co2 And Electronic-To-Vibrational (E → V) Laser Feasibility Studies, Steven M. Katapski Nov 1992

Electronic-To-Vibrational (E → V) Energy Transfer From Br* To Co2 And Electronic-To-Vibrational (E → V) Laser Feasibility Studies, Steven M. Katapski

Theses and Dissertations

The energy transfer mechanism from photo-excited bromine atoms (Br(2P½)) to C02 is investigated in a pulsed fluorescence experiment. An excimer-pumped pulsed dye laser operating at 480 nm is used to photolyze molecular bromine, resulting in the creation of one excited state bromine atom, Br(2P½), and one ground state atom, Br(2P3/2). The electronically- excited bromine atoms (referred to as Br*) collide with and excite vibrational modes in the ground electronic state of CO2. Measurements are made of the Br* lifetimes and associated quenching processes, and the …

Shock Tube Study Of The Effects Of Large Density Differences And Blowing Ratio On Heat Transfer To A Film-Cooled Flat Plate, Thomas A. Eads Nov 1992

Shock Tube Study Of The Effects Of Large Density Differences And Blowing Ratio On Heat Transfer To A Film-Cooled Flat Plate, Thomas A. Eads

Theses and Dissertations

The effects of coolant-to-mainstream density ratio (D.R.) and mass flux (blowing) ratio (Mb) on flat plate heat transfer were investigated in a shock tube. The round-nosed plate has a single row of holes inclined 35° downstream with two-diameter lateral spacing and hole length of three diameters. Mixing helium with air in the shock tube produced a D.R. range of 1.2 to 2.1. The parameters studied approach those of film-cooled turbine components. For an Mb range of 0.4 to 3 and 10% mainstream turbulence, heat flux was measured with thin-film heat flux gauges located 4 to 30 hole diameters downstream of …

Federal Statutory Restrictions On The Enforceability Of Forum Selection Clauses, Timothy S. Rigsbee Nov 1992

Federal Statutory Restrictions On The Enforceability Of Forum Selection Clauses, Timothy S. Rigsbee

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This author examines the relationship between the forum selection clauses and particular federal statutes. The comment traces judicial attitudes concerning forum selection clauses and analyzes how courts have applied the public policy exception to the enforceability of forum selection clauses recognized by the Supreme Court in The Bremen v. Zapata Off-Shore Co. In particular, the comment examines the anomalous treatment courts have given forum selection clauses under FELA, the Jones Act, the Securities Acts, the Federal Arbitration Act, the Miller Act, and the Carriage of Goods by the Sea Act. The article then examines Carnival Cruise Lines, Inc. v. Shute, …

Florida V. Bostick: Abandonment Of Reason In Fourth Amendment Reasonable Person Analysis, James F. Heuerman Nov 1992

Florida V. Bostick: Abandonment Of Reason In Fourth Amendment Reasonable Person Analysis, James F. Heuerman

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This note examines the United States Supreme Court's decision which addressed the constitutionality of "bus sweeps" -- random suspicionless police questioning of interstate bus travelers. The Court concluded that a reasonable bus passenger could feel free to disregard police questioning, and accordingly found that not all such encounters are entitled to Fourth Amendment scrutiny. The author explores the Court's decision and contends that only by severely underestimating the inherent coercion in such encounters was the Court able to avoid the intuitive conclusion that passengers are "seized" during such questioning.
