It is suggested that the best way to learn about a Macintosh application is to play around with it. We agree with this philosophy and believe that most of the features in the Parallel Programming Support Environment (or PPSE) are easy enough to learn without referring to this manual. Most...
The Upper Devonian Fenstermaker Limestone is a thickening-upward sequence
of interbedded sandy intrapelsparite and subordinate calcareous siltstone and mudstone
which averages 190 ft (58 m) thick in the northern Antelope Range. The Fenstermaker
Limestone is revised and restricted herein to include only those rocks above a basinal
shale sequence of...
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...
A model has been developed to predict the long-term
oxidation rate of Zircaloy-4 for ex-reactor (autoclave) and
in-reactor (PWR) environments and operating conditions. A
computer program has been written to solve the oxygen
diffusion equation by employing a fully implicit finite
difference method for a one dimensional cylindrical
geometry. The...
Particleboard is a widely used composite panel product
consisting of consolidated wood particles and adhesive. On
a macro level the panel appears to be homogeneous, however,
its density varies both throughout the plane of the panel
as well as through its thickness. Of concern for this
thesis is the through-thickness...
The American Proposed Standard for Digital
Cartographic Data presents the new national exchange format
which allows the transfer of spatial data among parties
that may use different computer hardware and different
operating system software.
A translator program for the conversion of the AutoCAD
DXf data structure to the Standard's output...
