In process control systems where an entire process
is being controlled by a computer, the component tasks of
the system have to be monitored. An efficient message
oriented environment could be an important factor in the
optimization of such systems. In this paper we discuss
the design of a real...
An advanced laboratory interfacing capability was developed
for the Real-Time Digital Computer Laboratory in the Chemical
Engineering Department. A stationary interfacing unit located
beside the computer mainframe and two small remote units were
designed, developed and thoroughly tested. These interfacing
units permit experiments with a wide variety of analog and...
This report presents CTD observations of temperature & salinity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the Kuroshio Extension. The data was taken during the deployment of a ten element current meter array in the Kuroshio in July 1980. CTD lowerings were made from the surface to the ocean floor...
Methods are presented to acquire data from analytical ultracentrifugation experiments
by computer using the absorption optical scanning system of the Beckman Model-E
ultracentrifuge. A computer program was written which analyzes sedimentation velocity
experiments by the van Holde - Weischet method and by the second moment method. The van
Holde -...
Lymphomas and leukemias are the most common cancer in children and young adults and in utero exposure to carcinogens may contribute to the etiology of these cancers. A polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), dibenzo[a,l]pyrene (DBP), was administered to pregnant mice (15 mg/Kg b.w., gavage) on gestation day 17. Significant mortalities in...
Between January 1973 and May 1975, the National Science Foundation sponsored a cooperative field program of direct measurements of circulation on the continental shelf of the west coast of the Florida peninsula. With a variety of instruments, records of ocean currents, bottom pressure,
coastal sea level and winds over the...
This report presents data collected on six cruises made during the months May-October 1972 along the Oregon coast. Both complete data listings and sequential surface data contour charts are presented. The latter graphically display rapid changes in surface water characteristics on time scales as short as a few hours.
The...
