An algorithm is described for determining the vertices
and supporting planes (or lines) of the convex hull
of a given set of N distinct points in 3-space. The
method involves determining a finite sequence of convex
hulls, each successive convex hull being a better approximation
to the convex hull of...
A saprozoic nematode, Diplogaster lheriteiri Maupas 1919,
was studied to determine its relationship to the plant pathogenic bacteria,
Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Smith and Townsend) Conn.,
Erwinia amylovora (Burrill) Winslow et al., Erwinia carotovora
(Jones) Holland, Pseudomonas phaseolicola (Burk. ) Dows.,
Xanthomonas campestris (Pam. ) Dows. and to a phage of A....
The hop cyst nematode, Heterodera humuli Filipjev, 1934 was
first reported from Europe in 1894, however, very little is known
with respect to the biology and economic importance of this pest.
Abundant material from Oregon hop yards provided an excellent
opportunity to add additional details concerning the bionomics of this...
The purpose of the study was to determine the current status
of provisions being made to provide for appropriate utilization of
the increasing quantities of audiovisual equipment and materials
available in the public schools of Oregon. The ultimate objective of
the study was to identify activities and programs essential to...
The purpose of the study was to investigate the nature of marital
interaction that occurs at the point at which couples with problems
seek assistance from an agency specifically designed to deal with
marital problems. Efforts were made to learn more about the nature
of the marital relationship in general,...
The design and operation of a completely automatic trigger
circuit is presented. This circuit differs from conventional trigger
circuits in that manual control adjustments are not necessary. It
will automatically provide stable triggering over a wide range of
trigger signal amplitudes, repetition rates and waveshapes. The circuit
consists of three...
An instrument which measures current from D.C. to 50 megahertz
by clipping a transformer core around a current carrying conductor
is discussed. A Hall device, which is installed in the core cross-section, detects the flux in the core. This Hall device in conjunction
with an amplifier is used to null...
