The engineer becomes a professional manager
(University of Missouri, 1953)
"Today over a third of the management of large industry in America is in the hands of engineers, over a third of mature engineering graduates now find their duties largely managerial in nature, and most engineers have important contacts...
Enrollment and incomes in civil engineering can be increased
(University of Missouri, 1956)
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 ...
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 ...
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...
Thermodynamic properties of n-propyl alcohol
(University of Missouri, 1961)
Additions to z-transformation theory for sample-data systems
(University of Missouri, 1955)
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 ...
Additions to sample data theory
(University of Missouri, 1955)
"In the current literature, two different approaches to sampled-data theory prevail. One approach emphasizes the z-transformation methods for design and synthesis. The other approach emphasizes the Laplace transformation ...
Design of low-frequency constant time delay lines
(University of Missouri, 1953)
Methods of measuring electric fields
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"To determine the potential of a spacecraft, an electric field meter is needed to measure the field at the surface and in the neighborhood of the craft. A search was made for field measuring methods which would not involve ...
Transfer of load between precast bride slabs
(University of Missouri, 1961)
"This paper presents the procedures used and the results obtained in a series of static load tests designed to study the mechanism of load transfer between adjacent precast bridge-slab sections. These tests were undertaken as one phase of a general...
Determination of diffusion coefficients from viscosity measurements : effect of higher Chapman-Enskog approximations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"Numerical calculations based on the higher Chapman-Enskog approximations show that mutual diffusion coefficients calculated from binary mixture viscosity data agree within experimental uncertainty with the measured D12 ...
Three and four coil systems for homogeneous magnetic fields
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1964)
obtained by making zero as many terms as possible of the series for the field along the axis of the system. The parameters are presented in the form of tables and curves."--Page 1....
Application of the principle of corresponding states for polar substances
(University of Missouri, 1961)
The impedance of a coil placed on a conducting plane
(University of Missouri, 1963)
"Probe coils are useful in determining the properties of metals on which the coil is placed. An analysis and an equivalent circuit of the coil on a metal surface are needed and are presented here. The coil was assumed to ...
Dissolution rates of uranium dioxide sintered pellets in nitric acid systems
(University of Missouri, 1963)
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 ...
Coating thickness measurements using pulsed eddy currents
(University of Missouri, 1955)
"The nondestructive measurement of the thickness of one metal coated or clad upon another metal as a base has been studied for the past twenty years or more. If one of the metals is magnetic, the problem is relatively ...
