The purpose of this study of the life and career of Dr. Carl
Leonard Anderson was to recount his professional contributions to
the field of health and relate these to public health and health education. The major emphasis of this study concerned Dr. Anderson's
professional life.
The accomplishment of the...
A brief history of X-ray control methods is presented, and
the instrumentation requirements and physiological considerations
pertaining to an automatic X-ray control system are discussed.
The latter half of the thesis describes the design and operation
of a device which will permit medical radiographs to be taken
automatically and at...
This thesis discusses the field of products liability as it
relates to the electronics industry. The historical development of
products liability is traced and the various legal theories are
examined. These legal theories and background are then used to discuss
the judicial obligations imposed upon the manufacturer and
seller of...
The thesis was an investigation into the mechanism of precipitation
from solid solution in an Aluminum-0.7% Magnesium-0.6%
Silicon alloy containing iron impurities. Laue x-ray diffraction patterns
were obtained from solution heat treated and aged single crystal
specimens in various crystallographic orientations. Precipitation
related streaking was detected on some of the...
Part I describes the synthesis of bis(fac-S)((tris)2-aminoethanethiolatoiron( III))iron(III) chloride. The compound was first discovered during an attempt to prepare a ternary complex of iron, thiolate and pi-acid ligand. The compound is a reasonably air-stable iron(III)-thiolate that contains a linear tri-iron cluster with each iron bridged to the adjacent iron by...
This paper discussed the human electrocardiogram, the instrumentation
used to graphically record it, and the design and performance
of a specialized system for vector cardiography: the Vector Electrocardioscope
(VECS) System. The introduction reviews in considerable
detail the pertinent known physiology of the heart, especially the
electrophysiology responsible for the genesis...
This thesis discusses the design and evaluation of an instrument that can estimate the probability density distributions of bandlimited, aperiodic electrical phenomena. This estimator can obtain the probability density estimates of signals that are contained within the frequency range of 100 cps. to 20 kcs. However, the basic design logic...
