An Automatic Rinse Tank Controller For Industrial Applications, Aliasghar Emami

Dissertations and Theses

This thesis describes an automatic Rinse Tank Control System used in detection and removal of contaminating agents from industrial plating rinse tanks. It automatically monitors the purity of the rinse water in sixteen separate rinse tanks, and permits fresh water to enter the tanks only when the conductivity of the rinse water in each tank exceeds a predetermined level. Its use will result in large savings in consumption of fresh water and the subsequent reduction in discharge of effluent to the treatment plants.

Photo And Magnetic Gated Bi-Directional Counter, Charles Burdette Kraemer

Graduate Research Papers

The purpose of this study is to investigate digital counter circuitry, digital logic, and some special applications of digital display systems. The technical data and information ascertained from the research will be used to design and develop a four-digital counter with photo and magnetic gated inputs.

Flood Control Modeling, Peter E. Delle Donne

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This is a research report that discusses some continuous and discrete modeling techniques. The report applies these techniques to the analysis of Canal 38 (Kissimmee River) part of Central and South Florida Flood Control District. The analysis is based on recorded data for defining the physical systems parameters. Established parameters are mathematically related to define a descriptive model for Canal 38. The modeling procedure of 'trial and error' is used to assemble the model with measures of merit, the integral square error, and root mean squared error. General simulation considerations are discussed for application of the mathematical model.

Production Attachment For Wood Turning, Julian A. Olson

Graduate Research Papers

As an industrial arts instructor for the short period of three years the writer has recognized a definite shortcoming in his instruction of the woodworking lathe. Instruction related to the woodworking lathe by the conventional "hand tool" methods is most important in leading to the students' understanding of basic turning ideas. This instruction, however, falls short of providing an up-to-date picture of the woodworking lathes used by industry.

As a means of overcoming this problem, the writer undertook the study of lathes as a project for the course, "Projects in Industrial Arts". This research provided information necessary in the construction …

Plastics: Mold Design And Fabrication, Duane H. Rippe

Graduate Research Papers

Students have often asked if additional molds were available which would make different objects other than golf tees. Literature provided with the injection molder described several methods of mold construction which could be fabricated in the school shop. The writer considered the possibility of making another mold, however, a time factor and limited experience prohibited construction.

The problem seemed to be appropriate for the Projects Course 33:270 at the University of Northern Iowa. The course and research involved would assimilate the needed information to construct a mold and to teach plastic injection mold construction more effectively.

An Evaluation Of Demonstrations On Inductor Theory, Boyd Warner Wasson

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The writer sought an improved approach for teaching theory of electronics to high school students. This approach was intended to require less expense and time needed to provide classroom instruction on electrical theory.

The purpose of this study were to:

(1) Prepare a number of demonstrations to illustrate phenomena associated with coils or inductors and their use in practical electronics.

(2) Prepare equipment and gather parts needed to perform demonstrations. Ease of construction and economy were important considerations.

(3) Evaluate the effectiveness of the demonstrations on student comprehension and the ability to apply information taught.

The Effects Of Selected Factors On Design Sensitivity, Leslie Horshal Cochran

Masters Theses

Chapter I.

Background of the Study

Introduction

Design is a comprehensive term involving a multitude of areas and activities. Its meaning has varied according to individual tastes and philosophies; however, regardless of the terminology involved, it has always been associated with the planning for an object or a product.

Throughout history the emphasis on design has varied, but its basic framework has been present in all cultures. From the crude but honest designs of primitive man, through the Golden Age of Greece, by means of the Roman Empire, via the Renaissance, and throughout the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries, design served …
