Techniques for characterizing damage zones in composite materials
(1987)
Experimental methods for determining the existence of a work potential, useful in characterizing material response even in the presence of significant damage, are developed and described. The underlying fracture theory and ...
Information and dynamic adjustment in the U.S. dairy industry
(1987)
Quality of information and the ability of producers to act upon information are important factors influencing technological progress. The dissemination by extension agents of information on dairy management practices used ...
A study on the fine-scale patchiness of zooplankton in the coastal area off Louisiana
(1987)
To examine the fine-scale patchiness of zooplankton and related sample variability in the coastal area off Louisiana, zooplankton samples were collected for one night and two days in October 1985 using a 1 m² Multiple ...
A classification methodology and retrieval model to support software reuse
(1987)
Studies have shown that reusing existing software can reduce development costs, speed up the development process, and provide a more reliable product. A software classification methodology and retrieval model have been ...
Paul Blackburn : quiet postmodern revolutionary
(1987)
When Paul Blackburn died in 1971 at age forty-four, his few books of poetry were out of print; some of them were exceedingly rare. Friends of the poet, seeking to rectify this and make his work better known, posthumously ...
Transition metal hydrides as reagents in organic and organometallic synthesis
(1987)
The group 6 anionic transition metal hydrides, HM(CO)4L- (M = Cr, W; L = CO, P(OMe)3 were found to be convenient reagents in organic and organometallic synthesis. These reagents offer the advantages of high selectivity, ...
The control volume finite element method as applied to transient laminar free convection between parallel heated vertical plates
(1987)
The control volume finite element method is applied to transient laminar free convection between vertical parallel heated plates. The results are compared with those obtained from the alternating direction implicit method ...
An evaluation of an indirect Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and SDS-PAGE, western blot transfer techniques to detect rabies virus antibodies in canine sera
(1987)
An indirect Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to screen dog serum for antirabies antibodies after vaccination and after exposure to a live rabies street virus. All ELISA results were compared to Rapid ...
An empirical investigation of separable monetary aggregates
(1987)
Defining monetary aggregates that are stable functions of a few economic variables, such as income and interest rates, is desirable for policy purposes. Defining weighted aggregates has proven useful for this purpose. ...
Comparative drought resistance mechanisms of eleven major warm-season turfgrasses
(1987)
Comparative drought resistances of eleven major warm-season turfgrasses were evaluated in the field after withholding irrigation. The relative importance of the drought avoidance and tolerance mechanisms was also investigated. ...
