  • Development of a laser interferometric dilatometer

    Creator:
    Johnson, Phillip Merle
    Abstract:
    Thermal expansion is one of the most frequently measured physical properties of materials. One of the important methods of detecting and measuring these changes is dilatometry, which is measuring the thermal expansion of the specimen and relating the specimen's expansion to its temperature. Four major types of dilatometers are commonly...

  • Acoustic switching of pneumatic turbulence amplifiers

    Creator:
    Hsu, Yung-Shing
    Abstract:
    An experimental study was made of acoustic switching of pneumatic turbulence amplifiers. The development of fluidic devices was generally reviewed, and the operation of the pneumatic turbulence amplifiers made for testing was described. The characteristics of the turbulence amplifiers were experimentally determined and found to be typical for this type...

  • An evaluation of biological control of Linaria dalmatica with Mecinus janthinus in Oregon

    Creator:
    Park, Alexander
    Abstract:
    Dalmatian toadflax (Linaria dalmatica) has become a prolific invasive plant of rangelands in Oregon since its arrival in the early 20th century. In 2001, the Oregon Department of Agriculture initiated a release program promoting the distribution of the stem-boring weevil, Mecinus janthinus as classical biological control agent to reduce densities...

  • Analysis and design of a small gas sampling pump

    Creator:
    Tuttle, Kenneth Lewis
    Abstract:
    In an attempt to satisfy an existing need for a small gas sample pump, a proposed design was analyzed and determined to be feasible and a design for a prototype model was produced. The design is of a chemically inert, leak-proof, unlubricated, sliding-vane- type pump. It is designed to pump...

  • Feasibility study of a surface vehicle utilizing a unitary control system

    Creator:
    Bassett, David Arthur
    Abstract:
    A feasibility and practicality study was made of an automotive-type surface vehicle that employed a centralized or unitized means of control. The control functions consisted of: steering, acceleration, deceleration, clutch actuation, gear changes, turn signal operation and horn actuation. These controls were arranged in such a manner that the driver...
