Hybrids with abnormal development were obtained when particular
genotypes of Phaseolus vulgaris L. were crossed. The phenotypic
aberrations of the F₁s included retarded growth, chlorosis of the
trifoliate leaves and the formation of adventitious roots on the
hypocotyls. The expression of the abnormalities was dependent on the
temperature. At high...
In a two part thesis, studies were made of two
different types of structure-activity relationships.
The first part consists of the synthesis and biological
evaluation of a number of 4-substituted pyrazoles and
isoxazoles as inhibitors of liver alcohol dehydrogenase.
In an effort to better define the steric and electronic
effects...
The analysis of rigid hub, three-bladed horizontal-axis,
axisymmetric wind turbines in yaw is made using a linearized,
four-degree-of-freedom model. The linearized equations of motion of
rotor and nacelle are developed using quasi-steady blade element
theory and Lagrange's equations.
The yaw behavior of the system is studied from coefficients of
the...
In mining and mineral processing, compressive loading is often encountered
during the comminution of ore bearing minerals and in the wear resistant materials
used in the comminution circuit. A common thread joining many of the materials that
are primarily used under compressive loading is the presence of a high modulus...
Lilacs are a group of ornamental trees and shrubs in the Oleaceae family consisting of 22 to 30 species. There are six series within genus Syringa: Pubescentes, Villosae, Ligustrae, Ligustrina, Pinnatifoliae, and Syringa. Fertility and cross-compatibility among cultivars, species, and series have yet to be formally investigated. Over three years,...
