Effect of edge conditions on buckling of stiffened and framed shells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1967)
"A series of stiffened shells made of plastic were tested to verify the theoretical equations for the effect of edge conditions on the buckling of stiffened and framed shells. The theory was developed by calculating the deflections during loading...
Pulsed eddy currents gage plating thickness
(University of Missouri, 1956)
"Echo-sounding technique making use of pulsed eddy currents determines thickness of one metal coated on a base metal. System takes advantage of electrical dissimilarities and is effective even when both metals are ...
Applicability of thermoacoustic phenomena to MHD conversion systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1964)
Variable-mesh difference equation for the stream function in axially symmetric flow
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1964)
A finite difference equation is developed for the stream function in cylindrical coordinates with axial symmetry which is applicable to an irregular mesh having different length and radial dimensions. In addition, the ...
The bandwidth of a single layer absorbing material
(University of Missouri, 1960)
work was done on this structure in which the following special cases were considered: (1) zero magnetic dissipation factor (2) zero electric dissipation factor (3) equal electric and magnetic dissipation factors. For these special cases, methods were...
Static modulus of elasticity of concrete as affected by density
(University of Missouri, 1960)
"The elastic modulus of concrete is an important parameter in reinforced concrete design and analysis. With the increased use of lightweight aggregates for structural concrete a better understanding of the relationship ...
Ternary system ethyl alcohol--n--heptane-water at 30 [degrees] CThe rectifying property of polarized barium titanate
(University of Missouri, 1955)
The composition of corn fodder grown in drouth years
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1937)
Thermodynamic properties of n-propyl alcohol
(University of Missouri, 1961)
A new transit method for realigning railway curves and spirals
(University of Missouri, 1946)
"String lining of curves was used extensively during the depression and the war, partly because of limited engineering personnel and money. Many engineers will prefer the following transit method to string lining, at least on important track...
A synthesis procedure for sampled-data systems
(University of Missouri, 1956)
at the sampling instants. 3. The closed-loop pole-zero configuration in the z-plane is determined from the transform of the output. 4. The open-loop pole-zero configuration is found from the closed-loop configuration. 5. From the open-loop pole-zero configuration...
An evaluation of the overhead projector in teaching kinematics
(University of Missouri, 1961)
"The overhead projector has been used as a teaching aid for several years, in elementary education and in engineering drawing. No use of an overhead projector in kinematics has been reported, nor has there been a statistical evaluation of its...
Dewatering rates for digested sludge in lagoons
(University of Missouri, 1960)
"Digested sludge lagoons were originally considered temporary sludge storage devices; however, it was found that with prolonged storage a lagoon became an effective drying unit. Since they provide one of the more economical ...
Thermodynamic equilibrium calculations for combustion jets
(University of Missouri, 1950)
"This paper describes methods for calculating the ideal performance of super-sonic combustion jets such as may be used for rocket engines, jet engines, and combustion gas turbines. Methods are provided for calculating the exceptionally high values...
Stresses in a uniformly loaded circular-arc I-beam
(University of Missouri, 1947)
"Expressions are derived by which the stresses may be computed for the case of a uniformly loaded I-beam bent about its minor axis to the form of a circular-arc. This type of structural member is unusual inasmuch as bending ...
Method for obtaining the trees of a v vertix complete graph from the trees of a v-1 complete graph
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1965)
"A method is described for obtaining the trees of a v vertex complete graph through an iterative process. The iterative process is as follows, first find all the trees of a 3 vertex complete graph, then by an appropriate substitution the trees of a...
Friction and lubrication testing apparatus
(University of Missouri, 1911)
an intelligent judgment.
It was the realization of this unsatisfactory condition, brought home by the difficulty of choosing between different lubricants for use in the University Power Plant that led the Engineering Experiment Station to attempt to develop...
Discussion of an Article by G. S. Ramaswamy and M. Ramaiah : characteristics equation of cylindrical shells : a simplified method of solution
(University of Missouri, 1963)
"Messrs. Ramaswamy and Ramaiah suggest an elegant procedure for determining the roots of the eighth-degree characteristic equation. The method consists of converting the eighth-degree equation into a biquadratic and then ...
Sanitation and sewage disposal for country homes
(University of Missouri, 1910)
"The demand for modernly equipped farm homes at a moderate cost is becoming an urgent one. Farmers throughout Missouri are striving to keep abreast of the times in modern methods of agriculture. Likewise they are seeking the latest and best...
