Response of circuits to steady-state pulses
(University of Missouri, 1951)
"A method of calculating the steady-state response of circuits to repeated pulses is given using the method of the steady-state operational calculus. A short table of transforms which have been found useful in these ...
Equivalent load method for analyzing prestressed concrete structures
(University of Missouri, 1952)
"A method is presented for post-tensioned reinforced concrete structures whereby the effect of cable tension can be expressed as a distributed or concentrated load. The analysis thus becomes a simple matter of applying ...
Measuring equivalent circuits
(University of Missouri, 1960)
"The equivalent circuit is a familiar tool to power system engineers. Today's large interconnected power systems often are studied as electric networks in which part of the network is a simplified equivalent of the actual system. Such equivalents...
The impedance of a coil near a conductor
(University of Missouri, 1958)
"The results are given of experiments undertaken to determine the manner in which the apparent inductance and resistance of an alternating current carrying coil changes when it is brought near a plate of non-ferrous metal. ...
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 ...
Relay protection for lines being sleet-melted by the short-circuit method
(University of Missouri, 1956)
"Sleet formation on transmission lines was recognized as a serious operating problem as early as 1916 and shortly thereafter methods were devised to melt sleet. In recent years various ways have been presented for connecting ...
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 ...
The design of a single-layer microwave absorbing material
(University of Missouri, 1959)
The microwave absorbing structure considered here consists of a homogeneous lossy dielectric material backed by a good conductor. Some previous work has been done on obtaining the electric and magnetic parameters of a ...
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 ...
The mutual impedance of perpendicular half-wave antennas
(University of Missouri, 1960)
The mutual impedance of two coupled linear antennas is needed to obtain the radiation impedance of an array of linear antennas and to determine the effect of one antenna upon a neighboring antenna, for example, the effect ...
The design of sampled-data feedback systems
(University of Missouri, 1955)
Compensation of sampled-data systems
(University of Missouri, 1958)
"Compensation of sampled-data systems is straight forward if the compensation network can be separated from the rest of the system by samplers. However, use of directly connected continuous networks presents more of a ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Treatment of livestock waste: a laboratory study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1965)
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 ...
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 ...
