Theoretical studies of heat transfer across interfaces
(1978)
We have performed two intimately related studies of interfacial heat transfer. The first is a study of the Kapitza conductance for one-dimensional systems; the second is a study of three-dimensional interfacial three-phonon ...

Thermodynamic properties of ethylene and water in the critical region
(1978)
The thermodynamic tables of ethylene and water were revised in the critical region by using a new isochoric equation of state. The new tables are consistent with the Hall-Eubank formulation and are compatible with recent ...
A linear CET commodity supply response model for thirteen agricultural field crops in the U.S
(1978)
The objective of this study is to estimate short run supply responsiveness, including interactions, among thirteen major U.S. field crops. Although major emphasis is on response to price changes, the effects of risk and ...
