The so-called powder-post injury to seasoned wood has attracted
much attention in America, and especially in Europe for centuries,
and has been the subject of published articles in many languages.
This peculiar injury seems to be on the increase in the United States
and numerous requests from a number of...
A mathematical model is developed for the analysis of circular
cell bulkheads subjected to gravity loads of cell fill, backfill, lateral
pressure, and surcharge load using the finite element method. The
finite element circular cell model consists of axisymmetric triangular
and/or quadrilateral ring elements for soil and cylindrical shell elements...
This study evaluated the effects of tillage system, rotational tillage sequences, and winter seed burial depth on weed seedling recruitment in irrigated cropping systems. Notill (NT) planting of vegetable crops reduced emergence of hairy nightshade by 77 to 99% and Powell amaranth emergence from 50 to 87% compared to conventional...
The Bureau of Entomology has been conducting systematic and economic
investigations of the weevils infesting the bark of the trunk and
terminal shoots of conifers in the United States, the results of which will be
published in the regular technical and popular bulletins ; but since these can not be...
The locust borer and its relation to detrimental and destructive injuries to the black or yellow locust in the eastern United States have been subjects of special investigations by the Bureau of Entomology during the past two years, which have resulted in the determination of practical methods of control.

Recent years have witnessed extensive destruction of forest growth,
particularly of pine, spruce, and chestnut, in portions of the United
States east of the Rocky Mountains. This injury has been very
generally attributed to insects, and there is evidence that certain
wood and bark-boring species have largely contributed to the...
Fluorescence polarization measurements on beef liver glutamate
dehydrogenase conjugated with pyrene butyric acid demonstrate that
the association of the enzyme is adequately described by a reversible
indefinite association with a single equilibrium constant. The data
obtained with protein concentrations up to 0.7 mg/ml in 0.05 M
potassium phosphate, pH 7....
A single cell in a 12 cell bulkhead was instrumented to observe
its behavior and confirm design assumptions during construction.
Vibrating wire strain gages were employed to measure horizontal
strains in sheetpiling webs. These were converted to interlock
force at eight locations and three elevations around the cell. The
deformed...
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...
This report is one of a series issued in cooperation with the Air Force-Navy-Civil Subcommittee on Aircraft Design Criteria under the supervision of the Aircraft Committee of the Munitions Board. Information reviewed and reaffirmed 1960. Revised June 1953.
Independent systems theory has been used to interpret the
circular dichroism (CD) spectra in the vacuum uv of three cyclic
dimers of amino acids. First, the theory for rotational strengths is
developed in terms of degenerate and nondegenerate group functions.
All terms to first order in perturbation theory are kept....
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...
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...
Pursuant to certain complaints of serious injury by wood-boring insects to girdled cypress timber in the South Atlantic and Gulf States, the Bureau of Entomology began a series of experiments and investigations with special trees girdled on definite dates in every month of the year, as well as with those...
This publication describes results of applied research on phosphorus fertilization of late-planted winter wheat in no-till fallow in the low-precipitation zone of Oregon and Washington.

Two types of linear random wave simulation methods are investigated;
viz., (1) Deterministic Spectral Amplitude (DSA) and (2) Nondeterministic
Spectral Amplitude (NSA). These linear simulations are extended to
second-order in a perturbation expansion in the frequency domain by
utilizing a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).
The nonlinear interaction matrix for waves...
Remediation methods and strength predictions were evaluated for wood I-joists with single, circular holes in the webs, leaving utilities in place. A full-scale bending test using four equally-spaced point loads was applied to three depths of joists with varying flange widths and span lengths of 4.88 m and 2.44 m....
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 model for analytical study of the attitude stability of an
orbiting satellite consists of a rigid body whose mass center is constrained to move at constant speed in a circular path about the
center of an inverse-square force field. The body is assumed to
have one axis of inertial...
The circular dichroism spectra of amylose, the maltose
oligomers, cellobiose, and the cycloamyloses are measured in
aqueous solution to 1640 A. Two bands are found in this region. The
long wavelength band is assigned to the ether chromophores; the short
wavelength band is assigned to the hydroxyls and further ether...
