Three seismic refraction profiles obtained between 42°N and
43°N along the median valley of the Gorda Ridge, an active spreading
center, allow the computation of the velocity structure underlying the
valley. Wide angle reflections which appear on the seismic records
suggest the existence of a velocity inversion underlying layer 3...
The primary problem of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of trained peer counselors on the personal growth of freshman students at a small liberal arts college. An effort was also made to determine if training residence hall student assistants in counseling skills affected freshman perceptions of those assistants.A...
The purpose of this investigation is to explore research management
problems pertaining to types of research where direct outputs are
in terms of intangible ideas or the kind of knowledge which takes years
to be proven applicable or economically fruitful.
The study was based on the analysis of the more...
Forty-eight young adult males were ranked on the basis of mean
hand-grip strength scores and the middle one-third, the medium
strength range, were chosen as subjects. These sixteen subjects were
given 30 serial trials in each of four tests; knee flexion, knee
extension, elbow flexion, and elbow extension. Each trial...
Seismic refraction measurements along two unreversed lines
indicate that the earth's crust is 26 km thick in southeastern Alaska
and 30 km thick along the Inside Passage of British Columbia. The
crust in southeastern Alaska, north of Dixon Entrance, consists of
a layer 9 km thick with a seismic velocity...
A method of analysis of arbitrarily shaped prestressed concrete
members for biaxial bending is given. The stress-strain curve of
the concrete is represented by two parabolic segments, and the
effects of strain hardening of the steel are included in the analysis.
An iterative numerical procedure is used to solve for...
