Lamellar x-ray diffraction was studied from thin films of L-α-1,2-dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL) and a 1:1 mixture (BrDPL) of L-α-l-palmitoyl-2-(9- bromopaimitoyl) lecithin and its 10-bromo analog. The specimens had high lamellar order, with an upper bound on the mosaicity of 6 mrad (0.4°) for DPL and BrDPL. With various water contents,...
The morphology and genesis of soils of the Willamette series
and of some Willamette-associated soils and their relationships to
geomorphic surfaces were studied in an area near McCoy, Polk
County, Oregon. Influences of regional extent, such as climate and
parent material, were related to the soils and landforms. The soils...
Problem areas identified are: The needs a) to develop curve
fitting procedures to estimate flood flow distributions; b) to
incorporate precipitation data into frequency analysis procedures;
and c) to better define flood potentials for ungauged streams.
Closely related to the above, it is noted that variables commonly
used to estimate...
Tests were carried on in growth chambers and in the field to
determine if the harvest of daylength-sensitive long-day cereals
grown during the winter in Arizona could be hastened 30 days by the
use of night interruption.
Two durum lines which were near-isogenic for sensitivity to
daylength were used throughout...
This thesis is concerned with designing and simulating waste
energy retrieval systems from large transformers to provide heating and
cooling of a control house. The transformer selected is Transformer
Bank One at the Ross Substation in the BPA system. The unit is an
ASEA 250 MVA transformer with forced oil,...
The purpose of this study was to explore the use of a multidimensional
approach to quality assessment of master's programs in the
context of the human judgment process. Specific steps included:
(1) selecting general dimensions of quality; (2) selecting specific
measures to define dimensions; (3) use of a research model...
Four assumptions--
1. That there is an effective and potential demand for processed
fruit products in the Western State of Nigeria.
2. That current supply of raw materials in the Western State
of Nigeria is more than sufficient to meet the increased demand
which the short-term addition or expansion (or...
