Student Satisfaction With The Process Of Transferring To The University Of North Dakota., Mary E. Dalglish Bergstrom

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to examine issues related to the level of satisfaction with selected aspects of the transfer process of the students who had transferred to the University of North Dakota (UND). Research questions addressed several issues including the difficulty experienced in transferring to UND in regard to admission, advisement, and/or acceptance of transfer credit; the respondents' perceptions of the accuracy and understandability of information provided by UND; the ways in which students were satisfied or dissatisfied with the transfer admission process; and the respondents' suggestions for improvements to the transfer admission process.Data were gathered using a …

Characterization Of Kapton Polymer Containing An Inorganic Additive, Juan Betancourt

Theses

With a full space program in progress, new types of materials are needed for spacecraft construction. These materials need to be strong, have good thermal stability and be good insulators. One of the materials with these properties is Kapton, manufactured by Dupont. Being a polyimide, it provides these characteristics, and being quite stable to ultraviolet light makes it the best of its kind for space use. The only concern is that, at the altitudes where earth observing spacecrafts orbit the earth, high concentrations of monoatomic oxygen (AO) react with the organic material and produce CO and H20. In an attempt …

Transport Equation And Diffusion In Ultrathin Channels And Films, A. E. Meyerovich, A. Stepaniants

Physics Faculty Publications

A rigorous perturbative transport equation for ballistic particles in thin films with random rough walls is derived by the diagrammatic Keldysh technique for both quasiclassical and quantized motion across the film. The derivation is based on canonical Migdal transformation that replaces a transport problem with random rough walls by an equivalent problem with flat boundaries and randomly distorted bulk. The rigorous derivation requires a modification of our previously used transformation to avoid non-Hermitian perturbations. The unusual nondiagonal structure of the effective scattering operator makes the transport equation different from the standard Waldmann-Snider equation when the distance between quantized levels for …

Nitric Acid Scavenging By Mineral And Biomass Burning Aerosols, A Tabazadeh, M Z. Jacobson, H B. Singh, O Brian Toon, J S. Lin, R B. Chatfield, A N. Thakur, R. Talbot, Jack E. Dibb

Earth Sciences

The abundance of gas phase nitric acid in the upper troposphere is overestimated by global chemistry-transport models, especially during the spring and summer seasons. Recent aircraft data obtained over the central US show that mineral aerosols were abundant in the upper troposphere during spring. Chemical reactions on mineral dust may provide an important sink for nitric acid. In regions where the mineral dust abundance is low in the upper troposphere similar HNO₃ removal processes may occur on biomass burning aerosols. We propose that mineral and biomass burning aerosols may provide an important global sink for gas phase nitric acid, …

Detection Of The Fast Kelvin Wave Teleconnection Due To El Niño‐Southern Oscillation, Steven D. Meyers, Arne Melsom, Gary T. Mitchum, James J. O'Brien

Marine Science Faculty Publications

Previous analyses of the ocean state along the western American coast have often indicated unexpectedly slow and limited propagation of coastally trapped Kelvin waves associated with the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation. In contrast, theoretical and numerical ocean models demonstrate that these Kelvin waves are a rapid and long‐range teleconnection between the low‐ and high‐latitude Pacific Ocean, strongly impacting both the surface coastal currents and nutrient upwelling. Sea level variations along the western coast of North America are reexamined under the assumption that tropically forced Kelvin waves are produced in bursts of several months duration. A cross‐correlation analysis, restricted to mid‐1982 to …

The Effect Of A Uniform Electric Field On Homogeneous Vapor–Liquid Nucleation In A Dipolar Fluid. I. Stockmayer Fluid, K.J. Oh, G.T. Gao, Xiao Cheng Zeng

Xiao Cheng Zeng Publications

The rate of homogeneous vapor–liquid nucleation is controlled mainly by the Gibbs formation free energy of critical clusters. Within the framework of thei/υ cluster theory of Reiss and co-workers, the formation free energies of Stockmayer clusters in the presence of a uniform electric field are determined. The Helmholtz free energy of the clusters, an input required in the i/υ cluster theory, is calculated via Monte Carlo simulations. The most significant result is that as a uniform electric field is applied the formation free energy at fixed supersaturation of the vapor becomes larger than that in the absence …

Black Holes With Magnetic Charge And Quantized Mass, A. Yu. Ignatiev, G. C. Joshi, Kameshwar C. Wali

Physics - All Scholarship

We examine the issue of magnetic charge quantization in the presence of black holes. It is pointed out that quantization of magnetic charge can lead to the mass quantization for magnetically charged black holes. We also discuss some implications for the experimental searches of magnetically charged black holes.

The Effect Of A Sheet Tension Controller On The Productivity Of A Papermachine, Timothy J. Rummel

Honors Theses

This thesis proposal outlines a project in which the efficiency of a papermachine is increased by controlling the tension through the dryer section. The controlled tension is expected to reduce wet end breaks and to decrease the steam demand of the dryer section. The experiment will be run by placing a laser positioning sensor above the open draw of a papermachine and monitoring the position of the draw until an optimum height of the paper has been determined. Then an automatic drive controller will be connected to the wet end drive to maintain a constant draw height and the machine …
