To remain competitive, the forest products industry needs to look for new and innovative processes and technologies to not only reduce costs but also to recover more value through the entire seedling-to-customer forest products supply chain. It is well recognized that measuring wood properties of logs in real time during...

Na-ion batteries are emerging as one of the most promising energy storage technologies, particularly for grid-level applications. Among anode candidate materials, hard carbon is very attractive due to its high capacity and low cost. However, hard carbon anodes often suffer a low first-cycle Coulombic efficiency and fast capacity fading. In...

Low-Surface-Area Hard Carbon Anode for Na-Ion
The purpose of this paper is the statement and examination of
relevant data pertaining to the subject of trans-Pacific pre-
Columbian contact. The paper's contents will be organized in to
five major areas: oceanography, ship building, archaeology, religion
and history, plus an introduction and conclusion. Each of
these chapters will...
This study uses a dynamic linear program to determine the optimum cropping pattern which should be followed by a specific San Joaquin Valley, California, farm in order to maximize returns to fixed factors of production. The study combines as much pertinent information as could be gained from personal interviews with...
Abraham Heschel wrote that a philosopher's primary task was not merely to describe and judge the modes and facts of actual human behavior, but also to examine and understand the meaninq of those descriptions and judgements of modes and facts (Bella, 1978). Our values are critically tied to our structures...
There are a number of wood properties which affect the quality of forest products such as lumber and pulp. Of these, wood density is considered by some to be the single most important physical characteristic because it is an excellent predictor of strength, stiffness, hardness, and paper-making capacities. Accurately assessing...

This report presents a characterization of the quantum mechanical
analog of the Gibbs canonical density. The approach is
based on a method developed by D.S. Carter for the case of classical
statistical mechanics, which considers composite mechanical systems
composed of mechanically and statistically independent components.
After a brief introductory chapter,...
The main result of this dissertation provides rather
general conditions under which extensions of zero order
propositional calculi inherit the property of having a
finite characteristic model. This result is applied to
show that if a calculus T is a normal extension of the
Heyting calculus H, and if T...
