Senator Al Gore Jr. was elected Vice-President of the United States
on November 3, 1992. During many of his public speeches, Gore utilized
a speaking style that differed radically from the style he used in other
political campaigns of his life. This style, which will be called the "rhetoric
of...
The life history of juvenile sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) resident in Chignik River, Alaska, represents a departure from the lacustrine, pelagic existence typical of juveniles of this species. For this reason, the distribution, relative abundance in different parts of the river, growth, and upstream and downstream movements of juvenile sockeye...
Control oriented local area networks (COLANs) are being installed in factories at an increasing rate. Traditionally, process control has operated with a master scheduler (computer) monitoring a number of points in a control grid. As the complexity of today's process control needs grow, the need to process information locally increases....
This paper presents an investigation of the power needs and
impedance-matching techniques involved when heating small charges of
relatively high-resistivity semiconductor materials. Topics of discussion
also include a brief section on the theoretical basis for
zone refining, relative merits of resistance and induction heating,
travel mechanism requirements, and work coil...
This paper analyzes the theory and performance of a
Schottky barrier diode detector used over a frequency range
extending from a few kilohertz into the gigahertz region.
The process of large signal rectification is analyzed with
the simplified detector circuit. Phenomena which can
affect the rectification process at high frequencies,...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships
between age, sex, eye-hand coordination, the time it takes individuals
to learn how to manipulate dental floss between all of their teeth, and
the time it takes individuals to learn how to effectively clean their
teeth with dental floss.
The...
