Local free convection to non-Newtonian fluids from a horizontal, isothermal cylinder
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1972)
The transfer of heat between a body surface and the motionless fluid surrounding it is perhaps one of the most naturally occurring physical phenomena. Undoubtedly interest and speculation regarding this natural or free ...
Pulsatile viscous flow in flexible-elastic tubes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
The flow of an incompressible viscous fluid through a circular tube has received considerable attention during the past fifteen years, both for steady flow and for pulsatile flow. The practical application of blood flow through vascular channels has...
The relation of the size of seed to the character of plant produced
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1916)
Text taken from pages 1 and 2 of this thesis: During the past fifty years a number of investigators have reported results on the relative value of heavy and light or large and small seed grain. Each investigator has devised ...
Textural properties of coagulated milk products containing soy protein
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1982)
The textural properties of coagulated milk products were studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy and Texture Profile Analysis. Soy protein and casein interactions were explored with chemically modified soy proteins. The ...
An investigation of farm or dairy buttermaking : dissertation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1911)
is now being made in all dairy sections and is due largely to the advance of agricultural science and the dissemination of knowledge through colleges, agricultural newspapers, bulletins and circulars. The present demand for butter as a food...
Force system synthesis to produce a desired time response of mechanisms
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1975)
A technique and computer programs are developed which will synthesize parameters of force systems which will drive a mechanism to have a desired motion-time response and desired input-output forces. The force devices can ...
Silage investigation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
More than one hundred years ago people began the practice of preserving green feed in silos. In this country the first silo above ground was built in 1875, in Michigan. From this beginning the use of the silo has spread ...
Cage culture of channel catfish in a heated effluent from a power plant, Thomas Hill Reservoir
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1976)
The thermal effluent from electric power plants has been a subject of increased concern because of possible detrimental effects to the enviornment. Power demands in the united states have increased tremendously and may ...
Equilibrium and transport properties of polyatomic gases
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1988)
The spherical shell intermolecular potential function was used to represent the properties of pure components and mixtures of gases. Parameters for this function were evaluated using second virial coefficient data and ...
Diffusion through porus media in transition region
(University of Missouri -- Columbia., 1981)
Chemical engineering is the design of industrial processes in which raw materials are under physical and/or chemical treatment. Catalysis is very importment in these processes. Therefore, a knowledge of the movement of ...
Study of intermediate moisture pork and its storage stability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
"Preservation of food has been practiced through the ages to save the seasonal surplus for future use or the annual surplus for use in deficit years. During the development of civilizations, various food preservation methods ...
