Airfoil flow simulation tests were carried out in a 20-inch
diameter double layer circular electrolytic tank. Results of the
tests indicate that the tank very closely approximates ideal conditions.
The double layer circular electrolytic tank is shown to
generate a very large rectangular tank. Formulas were derived to
show that...
All too often, students in physical education classes are only accountable

Studies were conducted to determine the effects of cyclopropenoid
fatty acids (CPFA) on the microsomal membrane of livers of rainbow
trout (Salmo gairdneri). Slab and tube gel electrophoresis of
microsomes from trout fed a CPFA diet (CPFA-microsomes) for varying
time periods showed a decrease in the number of protein bands...
The farmers of the Columbia Plateau region of Oregon, as well as other individuals and groups, have expressed a desire for information on the economic feasibility of irrigated farming in their area.

from waned boards) often contain some of the highest quality wood in any given log
and lack functionality only in length. This waste, traditionally chipped for pulp,...
Remote sensing is an attractive method for the
detection and monitoring of crop stress. The feasibility of
using remote sensing for the detection and monitoring of
fungal diseases, insects, weeds, and non-infectious
diseases affecting the cultivated cranberry (Vaccinium
macrocarpon Ait.) is evaluated. A study on the fungal
disease twig blight...
