A variational integral method in the Fourier transform domain is
used to calculate the characteristic normal mode parameters of a coupled
pair of nonsymmetrical microstrip transmission lines in an inhomogenous
dielectric medium under quasi-TEM conditions. These together with the
theory of such structures are used to show that ideal directional...
This study evaluated the influence of cattle stocking density on botanical composition of diet, diet preference, and cattle performance on the Zumwalt Prairie in Northeastern Oregon. In each of two years, 192 cow-calf pairs (549.27 kg, BCS = 4.89) and 48 yearling heifers (383.34 kg, BCS = 5.02) were stratified...
If the spatial and temporal distribution of resources is not homogenous it creates an assignment problem. While the adoption of individual (or transferable) quota management in many commercial fisheries has resolved issues of over-appropriation, assignment problems may remain due to the spatial and temporal complexity of fisheries resources, which creates...
There has been much interest generated recently
regarding the nature and cause of dating violence. The
purpose of this study was to determine what factors affected
individuals' attitudes toward dating violence. A sample of
403 college volunteers completed questionnaires which were
