Spherical Lens Optics Applied To Retro-Directive Reflection, James H. Havens, Allie C. Peed Jr.
Spherical Lens Optics Applied To Retro-Directive Reflection, James H. Havens, Allie C. Peed Jr.
Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report
This paper describes some expedient applications of elementary optical principles to the evaluation of glass-bead reflectorizing systems for highway signs and markers. 'The optical function of spherical lenses in achieving reflex-reflection is illustrated both photographically and diagrammatically. Various optical designs are discussed and analyzed. By simple geometric optics, the efficiency of these systems is correlated with the practical performance criteria for retro-directive reflectorization.
Comparative Study Of The Physical Properties Of Traffic Paints, A. C. Peed Jr.
Comparative Study Of The Physical Properties Of Traffic Paints, A. C. Peed Jr.
Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report
Traffic or zone paints have become a major item of expenditure for highway departments with their increasing mileages and with the increase in traffic using the highways. Extending the mileage requiring marking and increasing the traffic wear on the marking has necessitated successively larger purchases of paint and associated equipment. As this market became larger increasing numbers of manufacturers have entered the field with a great diversity of formulations having differing properties.
In order to bring some order out of this situation the Research Laboratory in cooperation with the Division of Traffic undertook a study of the paints as offered …

Progress Report: Reduction Of Zinc Sulfide, Merritt E. Langston
Progress Report: Reduction Of Zinc Sulfide, Merritt E. Langston
Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy Reports
To date the work which has been completed has been concerned with an attempt to duplicate the results reported by Liu in his thesis. In short, little can be said in comparing the two separate investigations because there does not seem to be any apparent similarity, even though the operating conditions were kept as nearly the same as possible. Figure 1 shows the lack of agreement for the amount of total zinc distilled, expressed as weight percent....

Evaluation Of Plant Mix Surface Treatments, William B. Drake
Evaluation Of Plant Mix Surface Treatments, William B. Drake
Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report
This project made use of six bituminous materials and ten aggregate gradations in plant mix paving operations. The test sections were installed by state forces in 1942 and 1943. The object was to determine which aggregate gradation with a specific bituminous material was best suited for an application of 75 pounds per square yard surface treatment.
The bituminous materials used were MC-5, RC-5, RT-12, PAC-5 (85 to 100 penetration), PAC-7 (120 to 150 penetration), and PAC-8 (150 to 200 penetration). Twenty sections of MC-5 and ten sections of RC-5 were laid in 1942; all the sections containing the other materials …
The Synthesis Of 2-Amino-4-Chlorophenol-6 Sulfonic Acid, Herman Albert Bronner
The Synthesis Of 2-Amino-4-Chlorophenol-6 Sulfonic Acid, Herman Albert Bronner
Theses
The work described in this thesis was undertaken with the view of exploring a reaction sequence suggested by early French investigators to synthesize 2-amino-4-chlorophenol-6-sulfonic acid especially in reference to the German claim that a low yield of product would result following this preparation, In particular, a successful application of this procedure would afford a relatively direct and inexpensive route to the sulfonic acid which is used as an azo dyestuff intermediate and could possibly find application in medicinal chemistry.
It was found that sulfonation and nitration of p-dichlorobenzene gave a high yield of the sodium-2-nitro-1,4-3 dichloro-benzene-6-sulfonate (91%) when using the …

Microfauna Of The Colorado Shale In The Sunburst Dome Area, Montana, Merle W. Emmert
Microfauna Of The Colorado Shale In The Sunburst Dome Area, Montana, Merle W. Emmert
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
It has been hoped that a micropaleontological study of the shales of the Upper Cretaceous Colorado Group in northern Montana would reveal certain faunal zones which would serve as markers in an otherwise drab, undifferentiated, 1800 feet of grey, fissile shale. This paper presents the results of a study of the microfauna in certain samples from this shale in the Sunburst Dome area north of Shelby, Montana.
The Elkhorn Mine Of Jefferson County, Montana, David D. Walker
The Elkhorn Mine Of Jefferson County, Montana, David D. Walker
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In 1901, after yielding metals valued in excess of five million dollars, it was considered worked out. Since that time the mine has passed through the hands of several owners, none of whom have failed to realize a profit from it. Although at no time since its zenith did it ever regain its once great production, it did provide a livelihood for those who worked it. Now with the American Smelting and Refining Company interested in it, perhaps it will once again become an important producer.
