The western Nearctic species of the genus Phytocoris Fallen were
taxonomically revised. Over 15,000 specimens were examined.
Information concerning host plant associations and distributions was
compiled and summarized for use by future researchers. External
morphological features and characters of the male genitalia were used
to distinguish species. The genital tubercles...
A five year longitudinal study was begun in 1976 to find a
solution to the problem of early primary children who fail in school
and then adopt the failure syndrome. The study was conducted in four

This thesis examines the transient and steady-state temperature performance
of a rotary regenerative heat exchanger. In contrast to previous
studies on this problem, fluid flow in the circumferential direction was
considered. Appropriate modeling was included to measure the effect of
carry-over on the differential equations describing mass and energy
conservation....
The fouling characteristics of cooling tower water
containing various corrosion inhibitors and other additives
on heat transfer surface have been investigated. Corrosion
inhibitors investigated included zinc-chromate and
phosphates. In addition, additives including polyacrylate
and phosphonate (HEDP and AMP) were used to determine their
effectiveness as antifoulants.
The tests were conducted...
