Properties of Mellin transforms are applied to the summation
of infinite series. A specific example of this application leads to the
establishment of certain properties of a generalization of Lerch's zeta
function.
Nine powerful methods of generating new tables of Mellin
transforms from existing tables of Mellin and other integral...
An experimental study was made of acoustic switching of
pneumatic turbulence amplifiers. The development of fluidic devices
was generally reviewed, and the operation of the pneumatic turbulence
amplifiers made for testing was described. The characteristics
of the turbulence amplifiers were experimentally determined
and found to be typical for this type...
A field study on grass field burning was conducted in the
Willamette Valley of Oregon during the summer of 1965. Approximately 243,000 acres of grass fields are burned in the valley during
August and September. Serious air pollution problems result from
this burning. The purposes of the study were to...
This paper describes a study of two-phase gas-liquid vertical
annular climbing film flow. Using a high speed Fastax movie camera,
motion was slowed sufficiently to facilitate detailed analysis of the
climbing film structure, based on single frame projections. The
dynamic characteristics of the liquid film could likewise be obtained,
though...
Most raw product received at processing plants in Oregon is sampled to determine quality characteristics as a basis of grower payment. Raw product sampling procedures must provide the processor with a means of sampling which will be sufficiently precise to satisfy himself as well, as his growers, and thus avoid...
Steroid organoboranes have been found to be useful synthetic
intermediates. Attempted pyrolyses, based on simple trialkylborane
cyclizations, have not yielded C-19 or C-18 functionalized steroids,
but have produced isomerized systems not otherwise available.
Thus, hydroboration of cholesterol followed by pyrolysis at
215° gives 31% of 2-cholestene-6α-ol and 49% of a...
The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not a
significant difference existed between Oregon community college
transfer students and native students at Oregon State University with
respect to academic achievement, persistence, and graduation.
Two groups of students were selected for observation. The
first included all of the...
