Linearity In Factor Analysis, Opal Emmons May 1939

Linearity In Factor Analysis, Opal Emmons

Master's Theses

The uniqueness of mathematics in that it is a science complete in itself makes it possible to apply mathematical tools to sciences which, in themselves vary widely in content. There is, however, a particular difficulty which must be surmounted. A given mathematical procedure may be valid in the science of mathematics but invalid in another science, such as psychology. The reason for this is that sometimes there is a discrepancy between the implicit assumptions in the field of mathematics and those implicit in the field of application. The purpose of this investigation is twofold: (1) To point out that linearity …

The Age Hardening Of Silver With Copper-Silicide, Joseph Edward Shaw May 1939

The Age Hardening Of Silver With Copper-Silicide, Joseph Edward Shaw

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The successful application of the phenomenon of pre­cipitation hardening to aluminum and copper has indicated the possibility of hardening all metals in the same way. The phenomenon of age hardening was discoveredin 1911, and since that time much research has been car­ried on in all parts of the world on various alloy sys­tems.

Heats Of Solution In Liquid Ammonia, Joseph Sottysiak May 1939

Heats Of Solution In Liquid Ammonia, Joseph Sottysiak

Honors Theses

Water, chemically speaking, is the most important individual substance known. Water occupies an outstanding position among solvents. In its capacity as a solvent for salts and as an ionizing agent, it is in a class by itself. Of all known liquids, ammonia most closely resembles water in those properties which make water outstanding among solvents. As a solvent, ammonia is secondary to water, however; many salts insoluble in water dissolve readily in liquid ammonia. Solutions of salts in liquid ammonia are excellent conductors of electricity. Ammonia unites with salts to form ammonia of crystallization. It solvates ions. It is an …

Effect Of Soil Type, Slope, And Surface Conditions On Intake Of Water, F. L. Duley, L. L. Kelly May 1939

Effect Of Soil Type, Slope, And Surface Conditions On Intake Of Water, F. L. Duley, L. L. Kelly

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

In connection with investigations of runoff and erosion in the Great Plains an attempt has been made by means of artificial applications of water to determine certain principles concerning the effect of different soils and soil conditions on runoff and soil erosion. Such information is needed in planning all field operations dealing with soil erosion and moisture control. It is also needed in connection with watershed studies that are being established in the Central Great Plains, dealing with runoff and flood flows from larger areas. The method employed makes it possible to obtain comparable data on a wide range of …

Electrolytic Manganese, George T. Derana

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The production of metallic manganese by electrolysis is of potential value for the recovery of this strategic metal from domestic deposits. These deposits are largely unsuitable for the production of ferromanganese, but they are amenable to low-cost leaching processes.

Glaciation In The Logan Quadrangle, Utah, J. Llewellyn Young May 1939

Glaciation In The Logan Quadrangle, Utah, J. Llewellyn Young

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

That the higher valleys of the Wasatch Mountains were occupied by Pleistocene glaciers has long been known. King, Hague, and Emmons, geologists of the Fortieth Parallel Survey, the first to undertake a systematic study of any part of the Wasatch Mountains, recognized this fact and their report includes a map which shows in a rough way the extent of the glaciated areas in the Central Wasatch (11 ). In 1909 Atwood (1) made a detailed study of the glacial features of the Central Wasatch in connection with his study of glaciation in the Uinta Mountains. He mapped the deposits of …

The Age Hardening Of Copper With Manganese Silicide., Gordon A. Davis May 1939

The Age Hardening Of Copper With Manganese Silicide., Gordon A. Davis

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The increase in hardness is attributed to the manganese silicide being precipitated from solid solution and deposited between crystal planes. The subsequent softening which occurs on prolonging the period of reheating is believed to be due to an agglomeration of the dispersed hardening agent.

Powder Metallurgy, Cecil R. Waldron May 1939

Powder Metallurgy, Cecil R. Waldron

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The metal powders may be produced in a number of different ways. In metals where the intercrystalline material is brittle enough, they may be ground in a ball mill or eddy mill. The fineness of such a powder is more or less controlled by the grain size of the original metal.

Asymptotic Series, Bernard Martin Apr 1939

Asymptotic Series, Bernard Martin

Master's Theses

The purpose of this thesis is to follow the development of the asymptotic series from the beginning made by Euler, in his solution of problems, to the modern applications of asymptotic series, also to present a definition and an analysis of asymptotic series, explain some different theories of their use, and show the ways in which they find common usage. The use of asymptotic series is a comparative new development in the field of applied mathematics. The divergent series were not used as a method of calculation until Euler showed that they gave close approximations in the solution of problems. …

Condensation Of Olefins With P-Mercapto-Diphenyl, Raymond Michael Abrams

Master's Theses

Markownikow's rule states that in the addition to unsaturated ,negative groups add to the carbon atom having the least number of Hydrogen atoms. It has been observed that mercaptans and hydrogen sulfide add to olefine contrary to Markownikow's rule in the presence of sodium alcoholates or sulfuric acid.

The Comparative Ability Of The Bob-White And The Ring-Necked Pheasant To Withstand Cold And Hunger, Paul L. Errington Mar 1939

The Comparative Ability Of The Bob-White And The Ring-Necked Pheasant To Withstand Cold And Hunger, Paul L. Errington

Other Publications in Wildlife Management

The native Bob-white (Colinus virginianus) and the introduced Ring-necked Pheasant (Phasianus colchicus torquatus) may both, on occasion, suffer severe winter mortality over much of their common range in north-central United States. Their habitats often overlap, although the Pheasant has a greater cruising radius and an ability to live in a more open type of country than the Bob-white. In given localities they also live upon much the same kinds of winter foods.

The scope of this paper is not intended to cover the ecological adjustments of Pheasants or of Bob-whites to their winter environment so much …

The Adsorption Of Hydrogen Ion Upon Arsenic Trisulfide Hydrosols Preceding Coagulation, Myron L. Corrin Feb 1939

The Adsorption Of Hydrogen Ion Upon Arsenic Trisulfide Hydrosols Preceding Coagulation, Myron L. Corrin

Bachelors’ Theses

Since the recognition of the colloidal state by Graham in 1861, the importance of colloidal systems in both pure and applied science has received increasing recognition. Many industrial processes are colloidal in nature; the chemistry of living matter is essentially colloidal chemistry; analytical chemistry involves the recognition and removal of matter in the colloidal state. As a result of the many applications of this branch of chemistry, the mechanisms underlying typical processes of colloidal systems are of vital significance. Specifically, the destruction of colloidal systems by electrolytes, finding as it does such wide use, is of considerable importance. In the …

The Lime Content Of Rocks Of The Upper Cretaceous System Of Osborne County, Kansas, Herman D. Search Jan 1939

The Lime Content Of Rocks Of The Upper Cretaceous System Of Osborne County, Kansas, Herman D. Search

Master's Theses

This report is the result of several weeks of intensive study and investigation in the field and in the laboratory. In making this study of the rocks of Osborne County, Kansas, the writer is concerned chiefly with the chemistry of the rooks rather than with their geological formation. He has not attempted to make a complete analysis of the rocks, but has limited his investigation in order to determine certain facts concerning their line content. He has attempted to determine the consistency of the percentage of lime in a given member in various parts of the county and also of …
