The electronic position indicator
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1965)
The Electronic Position Indicator is a radar-like device for the study of hand motions. First, a rederivation of the theory is presented to show its application to this situation. Then, the accuracy of the positional ...
Analysis of single-phase-to-three-phase converters
(University of Missouri, 1956)
"A static phase converter is a device which supplies polyphase power to a load from a single-phase power source using only passive circuit elements. Ideally such a device should produce balanced polyphase voltages at the ...
Application of the principle of corresponding states for polar substances
(University of Missouri, 1961)
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....
Lightweight aggregates for structural concrete
(University of Missouri, 1955)
"In recent years interest in lightweight concrete has become widespread, not only on account of its light weight, which is desirable in floor slabs, walls and partitions, but also because of its high thermal and sound ...
Viscosity of suspensions of spherical and other isodimensional particles in liquids
(University of Missouri, 1958)
"The viscosity of a suspension is related to the properties of the suspending liquid and the suspended particles by measuring the viscosity of suspensions made up of closely sized materials such as glass spheres, plastic ...
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 ...
Treatment of livestock waste: a laboratory study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1965)
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 ...
A study of the effects of paced audio-rhythm on repetitive motion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
The study described was propounded to determine if it is possible to provide a biophysical driving force that will stimulate the operator in repetitive tasks to work at a rhythm that is comfortable, yet more productive ...
The design of sampled-data feedback systems
(University of Missouri, 1955)
Loosening of bolted joints by small plastic deformations
(University of Missouri, 1961)
Formulas are derived for several cases of loosening of bolted joints caused by stresses in excess of elastic limits and accompanying permanent deformations. It is shown that loosening occurs during the initial application ...
Irrotational flow over spillways of finite height
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1965)
Potential theory is used to analyze free-surface, irrotational flow over spillways of finite height. Numerical values were obtained for free-surface coordinates, pressures on the surface of the spillway, and discharge ...
A statistical definition of perfect mixtures of solids of different sizes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"When mixing solids, it is desirable to be able to evaluate the performance of a mixer in terms of its ability to produce mixtures that approach the theoretical limit of uniformity. Although a satisfactory correlation ...
Experimental investigation of a magnetically balanced arc in a transverse argon flow
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"An experimental study of an electric arc in crossed convective and magnetic fields has been made. An electric arc was established across a rectangular test section through which argon gas was flowing at approximately ...
The use of the flux plot in traffic
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1965)
"During the summer of 1963 the authors used fixed-time interval pictures to study traffic characteristics on a short section of Highway 400, Ontario. The purpose of the study was to obtain density-flow relationships, ...
A qualitative and quantitative measure of Aufwuchs Production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1966)
"Aufwuchs production was measured from its accrual on plexiglass substrates submerged in a stream. A method was developed for separating autotrophic and heterotrophic aufwuchs production and for separating this production ...
Sequence summation factors
(University of Missouri, 1955)
"This paper defines a new structural parameter called "Sequence-summation Factor" which may be used in the systematic calculation of "over-relaxation" factors for moment distribution processes. These sequence-summation ...
Tension control for high-strength structural boltsTurn-of-the-nut method
(University of Missouri, 1955)
Investigation concerning polarization in barium titanate ceramics
(University of Missouri, 1957)
of polarized specimens, can be represented best by a Fourier series. It was found that direct voltage and even harmonic components are present in the unsymmetrical loops. The per-cent second harmonic and the electromechanical coupling coefficient both rise...
