Balanced codes, in which each codeword contains equally many 1's and 0's, are useful in such applications as in optical transmission and optical recording. When balanced codes are used, the same number of 1's and 0's pass through the channel after the transmission of every word, so the channel is...
This dissertation describes the development of a mechanistic
overlay design procedure. The mechanistic analysis represents a new
trend in both new pavement and overlay design. The greatest advantage
of the mechanistic pavement analysis is that it considers the
fundamental characteristics of materials to be used, is capable of
considering changes...
Liquid cooled, laminar microchannel heat sinks were
earlier proposed by Tuckerman for cooling high heat
generating integrated circuits and high power microwave
generation systems using photoconductive switches. A
method of computationally analyzing the heat sinks is
presented which produces the desired temperature and
velocity distributions within the heat sinks. The...
A complete Gallium Arsenide Metal Semiconconductor
Field Effect Transistor (GaAs MESFET) model including deep-level
trap effects has been developed, which is far more
accurate than previous equivalent circuit models, for high-speed
applications in linear integrated circuit design.
A new self-backgating GaAs MESFET model, which can
simulate low frequency anomalies, is...
Gaseous transport through soil in the presence of soil
microorganisms has been investigated. More recently, modeling of
gaseous transport in the unsaturated zone has been investigated.
However, the problem of mathematical model of oxygen and carbon
dioxide transport through soil, as affected by the climatic
conditions, the transport of soil...
The following report includes information concerning unregistered use of pesticides. Experimental results should not be interpreted as recommendations for use. Use of unregistered materials or use of any registered pesticide inconsistent with its label is against both Federal Law and State Law.
The status of vitamin B-6 (B6) nutriture of nine
persons (4F;5M) with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus
(IDDM), nine persons (5F;4M) with non-insulin dependent
diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), and 18 control individuals
(9F;9M) was evaluated, using biochemical and dietary
indicators of B6 status. The biochemical indices employed
were plasma concentration of pyridoxal...
