The distribution of particles in the Eastern Pacific Ocean was
investigated from 2 January to 14 February, l969, on the YALOC-69
cruise of Oregon State University. The size distributions were well
fitted by the two-parameter Weibull distribution function, with a
predominant number of them nearly exponential in distributional
shape. Although...
The theory and ways of applying a new electroanalytical detectior
method were developed. The method, called galvanovoltammetry,
consists of the measurement of current from the bipolar electrode of
a three electrode cell which consists of a working electrode and a
counter electrode, between which a constant current is applied, and...
This thesis discusses the analysis, design, and experimental
evaluation of an instrument that can be used to detect the presence or
absence of a signal, not necessarily known, in a noisy background.
The detection principle is based on application of the sign test of
distribution-free statistics to the stochastic process...
This analysis concerns the life and scientific work of Henry
Augustus Rowland (1848-1901), organizer and the first chairman of
the physics department at The Johns Hopkins University in 1876.
Special materials used in this research included three pieces of
Rowland's experimental apparatus which are extant in the Smithsonian
Institution Division...
Consider the c- sample testing problem with null hypothesis H[subscript]o : F₁(x) = ... = F[subscript]c(x), where F[subscript]j(x), j = 1 ..., c, represent
absolutely continuous distribution functions for failure distributions.
Furthermore, consider arbitrarily (right) censored samples, which
may arise from putting the (censored) experimental units on test at
different...
The purposes of this investigation were twofold:
1. To determine important criteria for making a selection of
course content in general biology.
2. To ascertain what should be the content emphasis in
biology for the purposes of general education at the freshman
college level.
The literature pertinent to the problem...
