Mass transfer from single rising gas bubbles is generally studied
by taking motion pictures of the rising bubbles and analyzing the film
for the instantaneous mass transfer coefficient. In this study, a
different approach was taken for the analysis of mass transfer. This
analysis solved the simultaneous differential equations describing...
The purpose of the study was to determine whether taking a
course of study about ethnic minorities and racial prejudice in the
United States would produce a statistically significant change in the
attitudes of white, middle-class high school students toward three
ethnic minorities i. e., Blacks, Native Americans, and Chicanos....
The purpose of this research was to determine the effects of a
college human sexuality course upon sex knowledge, attitudes toward
sexual behaviors of non-significant others, and attitudes toward the
sexual behaviors of self and spouse. In addition, the study sought to
investigate the relationship between knowledge gain and attitude...
A sucrose density-gradient ultracentrifugation technique for
obtaining microsomes has been developed. This technique has
advantages over the classic differential centrifugation technique, in
that it is faster, is better suited to work with small quantities of
tissue, and offers the opportunity to work with a defined microsomal
sub-cellular fraction, rather than...
This paper presents an investigation of the power needs and
impedance-matching techniques involved when heating small charges of
relatively high-resistivity semiconductor materials. Topics of discussion
also include a brief section on the theoretical basis for
zone refining, relative merits of resistance and induction heating,
travel mechanism requirements, and work coil...
There is evidence that recent ecological changes in lakes and their watersheds can be detected from analysis of lake sediments. This study was initiated to correlate
changes in some sediment characteristics of four Oregon lakes with past cultural developments of the lakes and their watersheds. The lakes chosen for this...
Vegetation as a soil-forming factor was studied under forest
transition and grass while attempting to keep other soil forming factors
constant in the western part of the Willamette Valley, Oregon. The
physiographic units consist chiefly of the interior foothills and slopes
formed from an old basaltic flow with some interspersed...
