The general expressions for finding the network functions, e.g.,
the immittance and the scattering parameters, of a general, uniformly
coupled n-line structure in an inhomogeneous medium are derived in
terms of the normal mode parameters of the system. These are used to
compute or to derive the explicit expressions for...
When sulfur dioxide is used in commercial drying of fruits in
combination with low storage temperatures, browning and microbial spoilage
can be inhibited. However, the relationship between moisture level,
storage temperature, and sulfur dioxide content on the color of dried
fruit is not known; therefore the purpose of this research...
An energy balance analysis was performed on each of four
transplanted Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Francol
seedlings growing on two cutover sites in southwestern Oregon. The
two sites were a clearcut and a partial-cut (shelterwood) side by
side, with a pair of seedlings used on each site. One seedling of...
