The three important methods of approximation; interpolation,
least- squares, and Chebyshev, are extended into bivariate approximations.
A method of obtaining polynomial approximations for very
general classes of bivariate samples is developed. Bivariate least -
square approximations are reviewed and a method of developing bibariate
orthogonal sequence is derived. A method...
The free fatty acids of Cheddar cheese are important components
in the over-all flavor and aroma of the cheese. Although the
more volatile fatty acids probably contribute most, there is reason
to believe that the higher fatty acids may contribute, to some extent,
in imparting typical flavor characteristics. Before the...
During the course of ripening, Cheddar cheese frequently develops
a flavor defect described as fruity. Recent work has indicated
that the use of certain starter cultures ultimately results in the
development of the defect as the cheese ages. The flavor compounds
responsible for the defect, however, have not been elaborated....
Certain chlorinated insecticides can be identified by electron capture gas-liquid chromatographic (EC-GLC) analysis of the prepared sample before and after treatment with ultraviolet irradiation, Upon U.V. treatment, characteristic degradation products arise from the insecticides investigated. Comparison of the degradation pattern obtained by EC-GLC of unknown and authentic insecticides provides an...
Report on an investigation carried out under Contract Nonr-2771 (04), Project NR 388-062, between the University of Oregon and the Office of Naval Research, U.S. Department of the Navy.
Appendices include the report "Crisis in Oregon's Estuaries" from the Oregon Chapter of the American Fisheries Society, ordinances of the Port of Toledo, and the petition for what would become the Oregon Beach Bill.
The development of new electronic devices and design procedures
applicable to ternary switching circuits suggests that it might be desirable
to use ternary arithmetic in direct digital control systems.
The advantages of decimal, binary, and ternary arithmetic in digital
computers are discussed and a set of rules for signed -digit...
