A study of demand and supply relationships in the agricultural labor market

Creator:: Vathana, Chamnong
Abstract:: The objective of the study is to analyze empirically the demand for hired farm labor and the elasticities of substitution of capital for labor in the U.S., the Middle Atlantic region, the Pacific region, and in the states of California and Oregon. The data period 1941-1969 was analyzed for the...

The role of processors in the improvement and expansion of fruit crop production in the western state of Nigeria ; a case study

Creator:: Olufokunbi, Banwo
Abstract:: Four assumptions-- 1. That there is an effective and potential demand for processed fruit products in the Western State of Nigeria. 2. That current supply of raw materials in the Western State of Nigeria is more than sufficient to meet the increased demand which the short-term addition or expansion (or...

A study of forces on simulated heat exchange tubes immersed in a cold fluidized bed

Creator:: Donovan, Jerry Eugene
Abstract:: The object of this research, project was to study how different parameters effect the magnitude and frequency composition of forces exerted on simulated heat exchange tubes immersed in a cold fluidized bed. Two arrays of tubes were assembled with the tubes mounted in an equilateral triangular pitch pattern. The center...

Three-dimensional, nonlinear viscoelastic analysis of laminated composites : a finite element approach

Creator:: Wang, Min
Abstract:: Polymeric composites exhibit time-dependent behavior, which raises a concern about their long term durability and leads to a viscoelastic study of these materials. Linear viscoelastic analysis has been found to be inadequate because many polymers exhibit nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. Classical laminate theory is commonly used in the study of laminated...

Micromechanics of heterogeneous materials under compressive loading

Creator:: Laird, George
Abstract:: In mining and mineral processing, compressive loading is often encountered during the comminution of ore bearing minerals and in the wear resistant materials used in the comminution circuit. A common thread joining many of the materials that are primarily used under compressive loading is the presence of a high modulus...

A nonlocal damage theory for laminated plate with application to aircraft damage tolerance

Creator:: Nahan, Matthew F.
Abstract:: Design of commercial aircraft structure, composed of composite material, requires the prediction of failure loads given large scale damage. In particular, a fuselage of graphite/epoxy lamination was analyzed for damage tolerance given a standard large crack that severed both skin and internal structure. Upon loading, a zone of damage is...

A study of cavitation instabilities in solids

Creator:: Puttapitukporn, Tumrong
Abstract:: Cavitation instabilities in elastic-plastic solids under spherically-symmetric and axisymmetric loadings were investigated using the finite element method. Both quasi-static and dynamic analyses were used to solve these problems. In the quasi-static analyses, we investigated a cavitation instability in elastic/perfectly-plastic, linear hardening elastic-plastic, power hardening elasticplastic, and constrained silver materials. Here,...

Dynamic finite element analysis of micropolar elastic materials

Creator:: Kim, Jong-bum, 1960-
Abstract:: In granular or fibrous materials, in which the dimensions of the internal structure can be of the same order of magnitude as major flaws or holes, classical elasticity theory does not consistently provide accurate models of the large stress gradients that may develop. With the incorporation of additional rotational degrees...
