Parametric manifolds

Creator:: Boersma, Stuart F.
Abstract:: A standard tool in general relativity is the 3+1 or ADM point of view, namely slicing spacetime into spacelike hypersurfaces of constant time and then describing physics in terms of time-dependent quantities on a typical such hypersurface. Much less well-known is the 1+3 point of view, in which one foliates...

Distributional modes for quantum field theory in curved spacetimes

Creator:: Agnew, Alfonso F.
Resource Type:: Dissertation

A new look at the Ashtekar-Magnon energy condition

Creator:: Fischer, James P.
Abstract:: Quantum field theory has enjoyed much success, indeed for ordinary flat spacetime applications it has been experimentally verified to a great deal of accuracy. However on general cursed spacetime backgrounds there is no canonical method for constructing a quantum field theory. In 1975, Abhay Ashtekar and Anne Magnon made progress...

Automatic time correction for interconnected power system operation

Creator:: Thurein, Ingo Paul
Abstract:: The North American interconnected power systems continuously attempt to hold power system time as close to standard time as possible. All inherent problems associated with normal power system operation make this a difficult task. System time is presently allowed to deviate from standard time by up to two seconds before...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: . Present correction methods are manual, time consuming and add to existing operating problems which leads

The effects of computer graphics and mira on aquisition of transformation geometry concepts and development of mental rotation skills in grade eight

Creator:: Pleet, Lawrence Joseph
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate: (1) whether the use of the Motions computer program will be more effective in the acquisition of transformation geometry concepts in eighth-grade students than the use of the Mira hands-on manipulative, (2) whether the use of the Motions computer program will be...

Preliminary design and analysis of a rotating bubble membrane radiator for space-based nuclear power systems

Creator:: Webb, Brent Jonathan
Abstract:: The development of a novel high temperature space radiator is described. A Rotating Bubble Membrane Radiator (RBMR) combines the best features of heat pipes and droplet radiators while avoiding their negative attributes. The RBMR offers light weight, self deployment, ease of startup and its performance is less affected by acceleration....

Full Text:: : PRELIMINARY DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF A ROTATING BUBBLE MEMBRANE RADIATOR FOR SPACE-BASED NUCLEAR POWER SYSTEMS

Spatial visualization abilities of Central Washington State College prospective elementary and secondary teachers of mathematics

Creator:: Martin, Bernard Loyal
Abstract:: This investigation was designed to determine the extent to which students who are completing planned curricula in mathematics education are proficient in spatial visualization abilities and possess mathematical understandings. The effects of mathematics curricula upon the development of these abilities and understandings and the relationships between these abilities and understandings...

Ultralight fabric reflux tube thermal vacuum testing

Creator:: Pauley, Keith Alan
Abstract:: Five Ultra light Fabric Reflux Tubes (UFRTs) were tested in a thermal vacuum chamber at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Johnson Space Center in September 1994. These test articles were design and fabricated by staff at the Pacific Northwest Laboratory, operated by Battelle Memorial Institute for the United States...

An analysis of the time spent by home management house students

Creator:: Horning, Pearl
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: devoted to each house duty, and how the three home management houses compared as to amount of time

Sharing the past effectively : an evaluation of excavations in the Passport In Time program

Creator:: Dickson, Catherine E.
Abstract:: The United States Forest Service's Passport In Time program is designed to involve the public in archaeology on National Forest land. Three of the program's goals are: 1) allow archaeologists to conduct research they would not otherwise have the time or the budget to conduct; 2) teach the public about...
