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...
Tabletop role-playing games (TRPG) such as Dungeons & Dragons™ are widely known and enjoyed by diverse individuals across the world. However, TRPGs and their players historically have experienced significant stigmatization due to the misconception by some that fantasy role play leads to psychological dysfunction. While a large body of research...
The indicated sum of a real scalar and a real or imaginary
vector is called a scator. Either the scalar part or the vector part
may be null. Scators generalize the complex variable to n-space.
The algebra of scators is not generally associative under multiplication
but the commutative and distributive...
A simultaneous direct spectrophotometric method for the determination
of barium and strontium using Sulfonazo III has been developed
making use of the chelons EGTA and CDTA at controlled pH
values.
An absorbance study of the barium and strontium complexes of
Sulfonazo III revealed that there is no pH sensitivity of...
Radiation induced heat generation rates of several nonfissionable materials were measured calorimetrically in a nuclear reactor environment. The calorimeter was uniquely designed to allow many materials of grossly different heat generation rates to be measured. heat transfer characteristics of the calorimeter were determined analytically and experimentally. Materials were chosen to...
