An investigation of the aerodynamic characteristics of planar and non-planar outboard wing planforms
(1987)
The outboard planforms of wings have been found to be of prime importance in studies of induced drag reduction. This conclusion is based on an experimental and theoretical study of the aerodynamic characteristics of planar ...
The allocation of risk and the distribution of profits
(1987)
This dissertation is concerned with the efficient allocation of risk bearing, and the corresponding efficient distribution of profits, in economies where individuals are differentiated by their preferences towards risk. ...
Stereoselective amination of allylic and homoallylic alcohols via intramolecular amidomercuration : applications to the synthesis of amino acids
(1987)
Stereoselective amination of allylic and homoallylic alcohols was applied to the synthesis of nonproteinogenic hydroxy amino acids. The total synthesis of (±)-threo-γ-hydroxy-β-lysine (1) was completed in 10 steps from ...
Monolithic fully balanced OTA based high frequency filters
(1987)
This research involved the development of a design approach and the necessary circuit elements for high-frequency continuous-time monolithic filters to be implemented in a standard CMOS process. The investigation began by ...
Parametric approach to solving bicriterion and singly constrained shortest path problems
(1987)
The bicriterion and singly constrained shortest path problems constitute important variations of the classical shortest path problem. In many real world applications of the shortest path problem, two "cost" parameters can ...
The depiction of women in the Spectator
(1987)
This dissertation analyzes the 635 Spectator papers to determine how they depict women and to see how this depiction compares with those of other contemporary authors. After a look at the historical and literary backgrounds ...
Synergistic and antagonistic effects between the halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons in C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice
(1987)
The effects of a series of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and biphenyls (PCBs) on the hepatic microsomal enzyme inducing activity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in C57BL/6J ...
An integrative model for the study of public accounting firms
(1987)
Public accounting firms have characteristics which set them apart from other professional organizations. These characteristics, which create a unique organizational setting, are a high percentage of professionalization, ...
Spanish goat diets following manipulation of South Texas mixed brush
(1987)
Forage availability and diet selection by Spanish goats were monitored seasonally from summer 1983 to spring 1984 to determine the influence of selected brush management treatments and range site on botanical composition ...
The flow of feed residues through the gastrointestinal tract of ruminants
(1987)
The results of three different experiments involving different aspects of digesta flow in ruminants are presented in five chapters. In experiment one, increasing level of either rice hulls or ground hay from 0 to 30% in a ...
