A brief history of X-ray control methods is presented, and
the instrumentation requirements and physiological considerations
pertaining to an automatic X-ray control system are discussed.
The latter half of the thesis describes the design and operation
of a device which will permit medical radiographs to be taken
automatically and at...
This study was developed (1) to compare the durability and
comfort of stretch and nonstretch in certain selected denim and
gingham fabrics, (2) to test specific designs as to their self-help
features and (3) to test special features in the designs which might
be adapted easily to ready-made clothing for...
New teaching techniques are the products of a wide
spectrum of research. The final test of all teaching
techniques, however derived, is their application to
a given classroom situation. The purpose of this study
is to determine whether the "principle approach", a
relatively new teaching method in agriculture, has been...
This thesis investigated the methods of failure in the webs of
built up girders. The beams had rectangular holes five and one-half
inches wide and seven and one-half inches high with rounded corners
in a web fourteen inches deep between flanges. The longitudinal
position of the hole edge varied from...
B and C horizon samples from twenty four selected profiles along
a north-south transect in the Willamette Valley were examined for
possible correlation between shrinkage properties and kind of clay
minerals present.
Observations of linear shrinkage, weight loss from a condition
of maximum plasticity, and changing character of X-ray diffraction...
Water and methanol adsorption isotherms at 25° and 37° C.
were determined on a series of organo-bentonite clays. The clays
differed in the length of the carbon chain attached to the amine adsorbed
in the cation exchange position. The amines used had carbon
chains of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12,...
