The designing of electrical machinery is fully
as essential to the thorough understanding of power
equipment and apparatus, as is the taking of a laboratory
testing course. One learns the relationship
of the different parts, the methods of computing
their dimensions, and the predetermination of outputs,
efficiencies, etc. and thus...
Lithia-silica compositions between lithium disilicate and pure
silica were explored theoretically and experimentally, with special
emphasis on structural miscibility. Diffusion couples of vitreous
materials were prepared and annealed. Best success in preparation
was achieved by using electron-bombardment heating in vacuum to
melt the less refractory glass and let it solidify...
Microgard, a commercially-available pasteurized
fermented milk, was found inhibitory to gram negative
bacteria such as Pseudomonas putida, some well-known foodborne
pathogens (e.g. Salmonella, Yersinia and Aeromonas)
and some fungi as revealed by an agar incorporation assay
method. Gram positive bacteria, however, were not
inhibited. Rather, some bacteria in this group...
Energy expenditures, perceived family well being, and energy
conservation actions were analyzed by family composition and level of
income. Data were from a three state subsample (Arizona, Colorado,
and Oregon; N = 2,633) of a larger stratified random sample of
households in the Western United States. Data were collected in...
