A feedlot cannot retain its manure byproduct indefinitely.
Eventually some method of disposal must be used. A case study
approach to this problem confronting a cattle feeding operation
representative of those in the area was used to determine volume
relationship among different product forms in order to maximize
net revenue...
A numerical model was developed which predicts the dynamic
response of a single mooring line and a buoy of forty feet diameter
to sinusoidal waves, wind and current in all deep waters. All forces
and reactions were considered to be in one plane.
The basic equations for the mooring line...
Failure to reconstitute completely is one of the major drawbacks of dehydrated green beans. Shrivelled and flaccid beans are found in almost every reconstituted lot.
In the present study an endeavour was made to locate the chemical factors responsible for the different rehydration charac -teristics of dehydrated green beans.
Dehydrated...
The effect of heterozygosity on the phenotypic stabilities of six
morphological plant characteristics was studied in hybrid crosses of
two self-pollinated barley species Hordeum vulgare L., emend Lam.
and Hordeum distichum L., emend Lam. Experimental material
consisting of parents and their F₁ diallel progeny were grown at two
field locations...
Enzymic systems able to hydrolyze the compounds forming
the supporting structure of plant tissues have a major effect upon
the texture of fruit products.
The objective of this thesis was the development of a theory
to explain the textural changes in fresh and processed strawberries.
The presence of pectinolytic enzymes...
This dissertation deals with end and side launching of marine
vessels. Its object is three-fold: first, to review several successful
techniques of launching and to describe the problems involved;
second, to derive and explain the calculations needed for assuring a
successful launching; and third, to propose several computer programs
which...
