A linear programming (LP) profit-maximization model and a Target MOTAD risk programming model were developed to identify optimal management strategies and associated risk levels for the aquaculture of penaeid shrimp in Honduras. Data for this study were provided by three cooperating shrimp farms and included complete production records of 1,004...

This simulation is a model for a tidal power-peaking plant that
can be used to determine the electrical peaking generation for a given
set of conditions.
The simulation internally contains a tide producing function
for a specific year, the hydraulic characteristics of the plant, and the
plant's machines' characteristics. The...
An Ls-isocitrate:NADP oxidoreductase has been isolated and
purified from embryonic chicken liver. The enzyme was purified
200 fold by means of ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration
chromatography on Sephadex G-200, ion-exchange chromatography
on Bio-Gel CM-100 and adsorption chromatography on hydroxylapatite
gel.
The purified enzyme was nearly homogeneous as determined
from...
This thesis proposes a criteria for the evaluation of those variable
parameters that influence the response of a hydroelectric generator
driven by a hydraulic turbine of the Kaplan type. It is considered
a requirement that a unit must be stable when supplying an isolated
load and it is assumed that...
The applicability of electromyographic biofeedback toward alleviating
test taking anxiety was examined along with the effects of
relaxation training on general anxiety, locus of control, test performance,
and muscle tension during a test. The Achievement Anxiety
Test (AAT) was administered to 271 freshman psychology students.
Students whose scores indicated high...
The central question of this study was to examine the moral orientation and the role of self in subject generated moral dilemmas for information on the developmental and cultural forces contributing to the etiology and maintenance of eating disorders in college women. The research was based on the theories of...
