Revision Of The Jefferson City Formation In The Rolla Quadrangle, James Shelley Cullison

Masters Theses

"The geology of the Rolla quadrangle was mapped by Lee in 1912. At that time all the dolomitic strata above the Roubidoux and beneath the Carboniferous formations in this area were placed in the Jefferson City. A more detailed study of the stratigraphy of the whole Ozark region by Ulrich has shown that some of the strata which had been included in the Jefferson City formation on lithologic grounds are not equivalent to the dolomites in the type section at Jefferson City, Missouri"--Introduction, page [1].

A Measurement Of The Extent Of The Color-Sensitive Areas Of The Retina And Of The Wavelengths Of Light Stimulating The Respective Receptor Mechanisms, Charles A. Rinde

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The interest of the writer was directed toward the phenomena of color vision in 1927 as a result of attending concurrently two courses in the University of California touching upon the subject, but treating it quite differently with results far from mutually consistent. Prof. R. S. Minor, in his course on physical optics, discussed color vision from the physicist’s standpoint, making use of the Young-Helmholtz theory; while Prof. G. M. Stratton gave the psychological treatment, based upon the Ladd-Franklin theory, as a part of his general psychology. Several of the more obviously points of conflict impressed the writer so strongly …

The Mandible Of Amebelodon Fricki, Erwin H. Barbour

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

The type specimen of the genus Amebelodon is installed in the Nebraska State Museum, the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. It consists of a mandible with tusks and teeth, all of which are dense and perfect, barring minor cracks and breaks. One toe bone and part of a rib found associated with this mandible may belong to this animal. It was discovered by Mr. A. S. Keith on his farm near Freedom, Frontier County, Nebraska; was secured for the palaeontological collections of Hon. Charles H. Morrill by Mr. Phillip Orr, April 4, 1927; was briefly described and figured in a Museum …

Faraday's Laws Of Electrolysis, M. Aquinas

Bachelors’ Theses

Physics has no equal, perhaps, in bringing the student to an appreciation of the beauty, the order and the harmony or the universe, and thus drawing the heart and the mind to God whose unbounded powers executed the eternal and marvelous wonders that are all about us.

It is intensely fascinating to take peeps into the "laboratories of God" and wonder what will be the next secret that He will let man in on. It seems as the ages roll by He gradually allows us to share more and more in His secrets or nature; He appears to be slowly …

The Quantitative Analysis Of Sodium Acetate, Henry A. Budzinski

Bachelors’ Theses

There are many methods by which Sodium Acetate can be analysed for its purity. Each method is satisfactory and the results obtained vary only slightly. However, this essay is for the purpose of determining the method which is most suitable for all conditions, and setting this method as a standard.

Scholasticism An Intellectual Basis And Unifying Principle Of Modern Science, Alice V. Johnson

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation

Amid the almost uninterrupted disintegration of systems during the last three centuries, the philosophy of St. Thomas has alone been able to stand the shock of criticism; it alone has proved sufficiently solid and comprehensive to serve as an intellectual basis and unifying principle for all the new facts and phenomena brought to light by modern science.

The Chromite Deposits Of Stillwater And Sweetgrass Counties, Montana, Uuno Sahinen

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In writing this report, two objects were kept in mind, (1) to explain, if possible, the origin of the chromite deposits found in Sweetgrass and Stillwater Counties, and (2) to bring up to date all information on these deposits which had thus far been available.

The work done consisted of study of the rocks and ores of the area under the microscope, both as thin sections and as polished sections, practically all of which was done at the Montana State School of Mines, during the school year of 1928 - 1929.

The rock specimens and much information as to their …

The Effect Of Carbon Dioxide Tension Upon The Ability Of Goldfish To Abosorb Oxygen At Low Tension, Thressa A. Hickman

Masters Theses

Within recent years much has been contributed to our knowledge of the physiology of respiration. Van Slyke (1921) in a study of the carbon dioxide carriers of the blood concluded that hemoglobin is almost as completely responsible for the transport of CO₂ in the blood as it is for the transport of oxygen. And that from 80% to 95%, sometimes possibly all, of the alkali furnished to neutralize the CO₂ that enters the venous blood comes from the hemoglobin.

Powers (1922) found that species of marine fishes have an optimum pH of more or less wide range for …

The Cycloid, Some Related Curves And Their Derivation, Ann Downer

Bachelors’ Theses

In studying the history of the cycloid and the related curves, it is interesting to note that the earliest notations and explanations were given not by a mathematician but by an artist. The description and instrumental construction of the epicycloid curve was presented in about 1525 by Albrecht Durer (1471-1528) a celebrated sculptor and painter of Nurnberg in his book "Underweysund der Messung mit dem Zyrkenund Rychtsceyd." The original idea, however, goes as far back as the time of Hipparchus, an astronomer, who used it in his astronomical theory of epicycles. This curve was now neglected until G. Desargues and …

The Constant Of Torsion Of A Given Wire, Ella M. Blunk

Bachelors’ Theses

"Using a given wire, the value of n determined dynamically is generally somewhat larger than the value determined by statical method. This is due partly to the fact that a wire, under the action of a torque, does not at once acquire its final twist. The twist increases under the application of a constant torque; and therefore, during a brief application of the torque (for example, during an oscillation of heavy body attached to the wire) the torque per unit twist has larger value than when the torque is applied for a long time. " Edwin Edser

The purpose of …

Quadratic Equations, Floyd George Hydar

Bachelors’ Theses

In algebra, an equality which exists only for particular values of certain letters representing the unknown quantities is called an equation. These particular values are called the roots of the equation, and the determination of these roots is known as the solution of the equation.

A Study Of The Oxidation Of D-Glucose With Air In A Saturated Solution Of Barium Hydroxide, Clyde Wilson Eddy

Open Access Master's Theses (through 2010)

The conversion of one aldose into another aldose and several ketoses slowly by weak alkalis at ordinary temperatures and quickly with much decomposition at elevated temperatures, was first observed by Lobry de Bruyn and later investigated by Nef and his students in an elaborate study on the action of strong alkalis alone and with oxidizing agents extending over a period of ten years. The results of these studies on oxidation were interpreted as depending on the presence of several intermediate enediols. The oxidation of sugars in approximately six normal alkali medium with air or oxidizing agents all give about the …
