A study of the distribution, relative abundance and diet of
fishes sympatric with juvenile sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka
(Walbaum), within the freshwater nursery areas of the Naknek River
system was undertaken from 1961 to 1963. The study was part of an
extensive investigation to determine what factors in the freshwater...
Understanding charge transfer in organic semiconductors is important for developing devices like organic light emitting diodes and flexible electronics. Optical tweezers have been used in many disciplines for trapping, manipulating, and analyzing microscopic objects such as microspheres, micro-organisms, and other colloidal particles. Using optical tweezers, studies have measured the average...
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
A home computer revolution is predicted to change America in the
next 20 years. If this is to occur, a consumer must perceive the
home computer as a technological resource. According to consumer
behavior studies, acceptance of a new product is based on internal
determinants, which are affected by environmental...
The purpose of this study was to determine if the preferences in
clothing fabrics and preferences in home furnishing fabrics are
similar or different in color, design size, and line. The
relationships of age, education, and training in color and design to
agreement of clothing fabrics and home furnishing fabrics...
This thesis presents both an analysis and simulations of a passively controlled variable-speed generator system, which can be applied for renewable energy sources such as wind turbines. Parallel connected passive/external resistors and inductors are connected to the slip rings of a wound rotor induction machine to provide an acceptable speed...
The Motor Systems Resource Facility (MSRF) at Oregon State University presently conducts a variety of steady state tests on Motors and Generators, with ratings of upto 300Hp.(225kW), using a dynamometer. The dynamometer consists of an induction motor fed by a power electronic converter. A control computer uses a serial link,...
Evidence supporting the contribution of American high school
curricula to student transition from school to work was inconclusive.
Social science research indicated that high school programs had little
effect upon student achievement after leaving school. This study
developed a model to identify factors that influence the transition
from school to...
