A Statewide Educational Program To Implement Comprehensive Nutrient Management Planning, Richard K. Koelsch, Charles A. Shapiro, R. Wozniak

Department of Agricultural and Biological Systems Engineering: Presentations and White Papers

EPA and USDA NRSC have stated that the most effective way for animal feeding operations (AFO's) to minimize water quality and public health risks is to develop and implement comprehensive nutrient management plans. In response a proposed CNMP workbook has been designed to serve as an animal operation's environmental operating plan. This project will initiate field testing of the proposed Nebraska CNMP with livestock producers and advisors. It will also assist with development of supporting resources and training for educational and technical advisors.

Analysis Of The Nico2O4 Spinel Surface With Auger And X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, J.-G. Kim, D. L. Pugmire, D. Battaglia, Marjorie Langell

Marjorie A. Langell Publications

Nickel cobaltite, NiCo₂O₄, has been synthesized by sol–gel and thermal decomposition techniques and the surface composition studied with Auger (AES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS). The asintroduced samples are near-stoichiometric, although samples fabricated by thermal decomposition tend to be oxygen-defi cient by approximately 25% of the predicted spinel concentration. Nickel 2p XPS indicates the predominant form of the metal to be Ni²⁺, with the cations located in octahedral sites. The cobalt cations are equally divided between tetrahedral and octahedral sites as Co³⁺. The oxygen XP 1s spectrum is composed of two peaks, …

Resolving Ambiguities In Gravity Wave Propagation Directions Inherent In Satellite Observations: A Simulation Study, Michael P. Hickey Ph.D., Jason S. Brown

Publications

We simulate space-based, sub-limb viewing observations of airglow brightness fluctuations caused by atmospheric gravity wave interactions with the O2 atmospheric airglow, and we demonstrate that, due to the geometry associated with such observations, the brightness fluctuations observed for the optically thick 0–0 band emission will always appear stronger for waves traveling towards the observer (satellite). The effect should be most noticeable for waves having relatively small vertical wavelengths (∼10 km) and horizontal wavelengths of 50 km or greater. For waves of short (∼100 km) horizontal wavelength, the brightness fluctuation anisotropy with respect to viewing direction may also be evident in …

Government Contracting And The Unionization Of San Francisco's Social Service Nonprofits, Jeanne Bell Peters

Master's Theses

This study established baseline data about union activity among San Francisco's nonprofit social service agencies. It examined associations between agency staff size, annual budget size, reliance upon government funding, and the experience of union activity. It further sought to assess executive directors' opinions about factors motivating employees to organize, as well as their opinions about the viability of unionization in the nonprofit sector. The data demonstrate a strong, positive association between agency staff size, annual budget size, reliance upon government funding, and the experience of union activity. Executive directors of nonprofit social service agencies in this study believe that wages …

The Design And Performance Of An Evaporative Cooling Test Rig For A Maritime Climate, Ben Costelloe, Donal Finn

Conference Papers

Recent developments have prompted a review of the use of cooling tower based evaporative cooling technology as an effective means of cooling modern buildings. Prominent among these developments is the success of high temperature cooling systems such as radiant ceiling panels and chilled beams. At present, however, there is little published literature which gives a quantitative, in depth analysis of the performance or energy efficiency of cooling towers, used in maritime climates, in conjunction with heat exchangers and run at low approach and low wet bulb temperatures throughout the free cooling season. This lack of knowledge has meant that many …

Film Mass Transfer Coefficient Expressions For Electroosmotic Flows, Athanasios I. Liapis, Brian A. Grimes

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Expressions are developed and presented that could be used to determine the film mass transfer coefficient of a solute in electroosmotic flows. In contrast to pressure-driven flows at low Reynolds numbers where the film mass transfer coefficient is independent of the linear characteristic dimension of the channel for flow, in electroosmotically driven flows at low Reynolds numbers the film mass transfer coefficient is shown to be a function of the ratio R/λ, where R is the channel radius and λ is the Debye length. This result implies that for electroosmotically driven flows in a packed bed or porous monolith with …

Evaluation Of A Vancomycin Chiral Stationary Phase In Capillary Electrochromatography Using Polar Organic And Reversed-Phase Modes, Charlotte Karlsson, Lars Karlsson, Daniel W. Armstrong, Paul K. Owens

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

A vancomycin chiral stationary phase (CSP) was fully evaluated in capillary electrochromatography (CEC) in reversed phase and polar organic modes for a number of racemic pharmaceutical compounds. High efficiency and resolution values were obtained for a number of compound classes including thalidomide in both the polar organic mode (190 000 plates meter-1 and Rs = 13.8) and reversed-phase mode (125 000 plates meter-1 and Rs = 13.0). Experimental parameters, including organic modifier, organic solvent ratio, ionic strength, pH, temperature, and voltage, were examined in both the aqueous and nonaqueous modes to deduce their effect on the resultant EOF, retention times, …

Rapid Identification Of The Bacterial Pathogens Responsible For Urinary Tract Infections Using Direct Injection Ce, Daniel W. Armstrong, Jeffrey M. Schneiderheinze

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

The use of high-performance capillary electrokinetic techniques for the separation, identification, and quantitation of intact microbes represents a new frontier for separation science. In this work, it is demonstrated that pathogens most responsible for urinary tract infections can be distinguished from one another after direct injection of untreated urine. High efficiencies (often exceeding 1 000 000 plates/m) and short analysis times (< 10 min) are characteristics of this approach. The concentration of the urine matrix appears to be able to cause a small, but definite, change in the electroosmotic flow velocity. This high-efficiency separation-based approach could prove to be invaluable for the diagnosis and tracking of certain diseases. It also could form the basis for a variety of rapid microbial assays.

Raf Wings Over Florida: Memories Of World War Ii British Air Cadets, Willard Largent

Purdue University Press Books

In the early 1940s, prior to the United States' entry into World War II, through the joint efforts of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill, British soldiers were sent to the United States for flight training. This collection gives first-person accounts of the men who learned the art of flying in a place far from their homeland, Florida. The stories provide a wonderful contrast between the two cultures and are told in the voices of British cadets, American cadets who trained with them, instructors, and other individuals who welcomed the British cadets into their homes and lives.
