  • Pasture renovation with herbicide suppression of weeds and no-till seeding of orchardgrass

    Creator:
    Fitzsimmons, James P.
    Abstract:
    No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...

  • Calibration of the Nimbus-7 scanning multichannel microwave radiometer (SMMR), 1979-1984

    Creator:
    Francis, Erika A.
    Abstract:
    Six years of Nimbus-7 Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) data from 1979 to 1984 are recalibrated at the radiometric level. New statistical techniques are developed to quantify the temporal and orbital data errors and to generate numerical corrections for brightness temperatures prior to estimation of geophysical parameters. The foundations of...

  • The asymptotic boundary layer on a circular cylinder in axisymmetric micropolar fluid flow and constitutive theories

    Creator:
    Okada, Kanzo
    Abstract:
    The asymptotic boundary layer problem involving an axial incompressible Newtonian fluid flow past a circular cylinder parallel to its axis was investigated by Stewartson (1955). He addressed hiself primarily to the Mangler's (1948) derivation, namely, the character of the boundary layer on a circular cylinder is equivalent to that on...

  • Fluid forces on and flow configurations around a circular cylinder near a plane boundary

    Creator:
    Tavolacci, Don
    Abstract:
    The flow configurations around and the forces acting on a circular cylinder with its axis parallel to a nearby plane boundary and subjected to a uniform flow were investigated. The flow conditions, which were perpendicular to the cylinder axis and parallel to the plane boundary were investigated experimentally and theoretically....

  • Friction losses for water flowing in non-circular ducts

    Creator:
    Mohandes, Abdolhosein
    Abstract:
    Friction factors were measured for water flowing in ducts made up of two rods held between two flat plates. Three rod diameters of 0.50, 1.00 and 1.50 inches were used. The spacings between rods varied from 0.0 to 0.32 inch. It was found that the concept of hydraulic diameter was...

  • Simulation of coastal processes in a circular wave basin

    Creator:
    Katzev, David H.
    Abstract:
    The circular wave basin provides a means of physically modeling the nearshore without the typical problems associated with end walls. Three different coastal processes were examined to demonstrate the use of a spiral wavemaker in a circular wave basin. These were longshore currents, shear waves, and groin circulation. A beach...

  • Structural stability effects on adsorption of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme to colloidal silica

    Creator:
    Tian, Minghua
    Abstract:
    Circular dichroism (CD) spectra were obtained for bacteriophage T4 lysozyme and three of its mutants in the presence and absence of colloidal silica nanoparticles. Mutant lysozymes were produced by substitution of the isoleucine at position 3 with tryptophan, cysteine and leucine. Each substitution resulted in an altered structural stability, quantified...

  • Evaluation of remediation techniques for circular holes in the webs of wood I-joists

    Creator:
    Polocoser, Tiberiu
    Abstract:
    The objective of this project was to evaluate methods to remediate a wood I-joist with a single, circular hole in the web while leaving utilities in place. The methods were experimentally evaluated with a full-scale bending test using four equally spaced point loads. There were three depths of joists with...

  • A calculation of the suction requirements to prevent boundary layer separation on a circular cyclinder

    Creator:
    Corsiglia, Victor R.
    Abstract:
    An investigation was made to test the method of Head on the flow about a circular cylinder with suction. The method of Head is an approximate method of obtaining solutions to the boundary layer equations. The method was adapted to the digital computer to facilitate performing the calculations, and a...

  • Pressure distribution around a circular cylinder resting on a flat boundary in an oscillating fluid

    Creator:
    Johnson, Ronald Ernest
    Abstract:
    This study was undertaken to provide information needed in the design of ocean outfalls. A review of past investigations concerning forces on submerged objects is presented. Objects independent of any boundary and cylinders in boundary contact are considered. A solution for pressure distribution about a circular cylinder resting on a...
