A study was made of the subgenus Genuini of the genus Juncus in the Pacific States, California, Oregon and Washington. Extensive morphological comparisons, geographical distributions, habitat differences and observations of apparent presence or absence of natural hybrids provided the major data sources. Cytological studies were made, but were inconclusive. Eleven...
The structural behavior of pile groups (dolphins) is analyzed
considering two types of boundary conditions. First the individual
piles of the group are assumed to be rigidly embedded in the soil. In
the second analysis the more realistic case is considered where the

Purpose of the Study
In most liberal arts colleges, the majority of students enrolled
are primarily interested in a liberal education. To meet the requirements
of its students, several colleges have introduced a relatively
new program in the sciences; this program is the integrated

The treatment of waste water from a corn freezing process by
activated sludge with the aid of alum coagulation was investigated.
Both high and low energy level systems were observed with good
flocculation occurring at the low energy level. Because poor flocculation
occurs at high energy level conditions, alum was...
This study was conducted to determine the effects of
shipping stress on the immune system in domestic lambs (Ovis
aries) and to determine the potential of the thymic peptide,
thymulin, to reduce those effects of stress on the immune
system. Treatments consisted of no shipping (as unstressed
controls), shipping (as...
