A preparative method for a new compound n-octadecylcycloazadi-boron (CAB), in high yield has been developed. CAB was isolated as
an intermediate in the octadecylamine-catalyzed hydrolysis of pentaborane.
The most probable structure of CAB can be regarded as a
derivative of the three membered ring cycloazadiboron with a
n-octadecyl group substituted...
Controllable parameters in a power system include generator
terminal voltage, generator input power and network admittances.
These parameters can be controlled to damp
mechanical rotor oscillation in the generators and thereby
improve system transient stability. Explicit equations are
derived in this thesis for the control of these parameters to
introduce...
The selective adsorption from a series of binary solutions on an
organoclay complex has been studied in relation to the gelling ability
of this organoclay. Adsorption isotherms were obtained for a series
of polar organic solvents in toluene. The isotherms were of the usual
"S" or "U" type depending upon...
The effects of round, square, and reentrant entrances on flow
regimes and local heat transfer coefficients were determined using a symmetrical,
plane-wall two-dimensional, subsonic air diffuser with one
of the diverging walls heated and maintained isothermal.
Flow and heat transfer studies were made at total divergence
angles ranging from 0...
Six experiments were conducted to determine the effects of
DES implantation on preweaning performance and sexual maturation
of male calves when implanted at various stages of development and
different sites.
Calves receiving DES implants in Experiments I and II were
implanted at birth, at birth and at about three months...
An instrument which measures current from D.C. to 50 megahertz
by clipping a transformer core around a current carrying conductor
is discussed. A Hall device, which is installed in the core cross-section, detects the flux in the core. This Hall device in conjunction
with an amplifier is used to null...
The effects of sublethal concentrations of kraft mill effluents
(KME) on the growth, food consumption, and swimming ability of
juvenile chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tschawytscha (Walbaum),
were studied from February 1966 to May, 1967.
The KME used in these studies was obtained from two pulp and
paper mills producing paper from...
The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship
between University housing and academic achievement and to investigate
the relationship of age, previous year's grade-point average and
intelligence to academic achievement.
A sample of one hundred and sixty four sophomore, junior and
senior students were selected from four housing...
