A statistical description of the deep ocean internal wave field is presented using measurements from the Midocean Acoustic Transmission Experiment, conducted near Cobb Seamount in the NE Pacific (46°46'N, 30°47'W) during June–July 1977. The unique feature of this experiment is the variety of data obtained simultaneously from the same location:...
Capillary pressure-saturation data obtained for unconsolidated porous media with different liquids are examined to investigate the effects of clay-liquid interactions on liquid retention. Liquid retention functions are assumed to reflect the effective pore-size distributions. The hydraulic variables, capillary pressure and saturation, are transformed to account for changes in liquid retention...
Environmental concerns have prompted the need for reviving an old art: controlled felling. The methods currently used, jacking and lining, present new and varied problems for the faller in today's environment. One of the major concerns of the faller is the purpose of this paper what kind of forces are...
Potentially large savings can be realized within the forest industry by improved machine scheduling, labour scheduling, machine investment, inventory management, and the maximization of wood value. Forecasting must change within the forest industry from Ttguesstimatesll to more efficient production forecasting models. Much work needs to be done with data collection...
This thesis discusses the design and evaluation of an instrument
that can detect known signals in noise. This detector uses
two integrators to sense a difference in the received signal between
half-cycles of the known signal.
The detector is useful for sensing signals in the approximate
frequency range of 100...
