determine if the 75 to 85 percent segment was a more sensitive test
of early lung dysfunction. The nonsmoking population was composed
of 240 men who were tested for values of forced vital capacity...
A lightweight carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) c-channel beam was previously designed using analytical theory and finite element analysis and subsequently manufactured through a pultrusion process. Physical testing revealed the prototype did not meet the bending and torsional stiffness of the beam model. An investigation revealed that the manufactured prototype...
This study describes the development and analysis of a manual
for management and supervisory personnel involved with employee
training programs in sanitary food production in the frozen fruit and

of frozen foods, and employee training are discussed in relationship
to the...
The effects of bicycle exercise on specific anthropometric and
physiological measures were observed in two test subjects (S1 and S2)
over a twelve week exercise period. The two subjects, one male (S1)
and one female (S2) participated in a graduated bicycle exercise program.
Body weight, body measurements, circulatory function tests,...
Part of the responsibility of maintaining the sanitary quality
