Mechanical covering to prevent shoulder greening in white onions
(1989)
Onion (Allium cepa L.) varieties 'Contessa', 'White Early Supreme', 'Texas Grano 1015Y' (TG 1015Y), and 'Perla' were utilized in field studies that were conducted in 1988 and 1989 in Rio Grande City, College Station, Weslaco ...
Characterization of active sites and the effect of reduction and metal promoters on iron catalysts
(1989)
Infrared spectroscopy has been used as the principal method of characterizing the adsorption sites of iron-based catalysts. Nitric oxide and carbon monoxide were used as probe molecules to observe the effects of reduction ...
Boundary kernel estimation of the two sample comparison density function
(1989)
The focus of this work is to derive functional and graphical statistical techniques for the two sample problem suitable for implementation in modern computing environments. In the two sample problem, it is desired to test ...
Improved techniques for reliability evaluation of generation systems
(1989)
This dissertation represents new techniques for evaluating generation capacity reliability. These techniques are based on Fourier transforms and their properties. They permit the use of continuous probability distribution(s) ...
The inverse tsunami problem of an island
(1989)
To date there exists no deep water record of a major tsunami from a benthic pressure gauge. Such deep water records and their spectra are desirable as a means of characterizing the tsunami source. The closest thing to such ...
Decision support for variable liming rates
(1989)
Land areas may have considerable variation in characteristics that affect crop production such as different soil types or fertility levels. For optimum farm management this spatial variability should be taken into account. ...
Deformation micromechanisms in polymeric matrices and carbon fibre reinforced composites
(1989)
The objective of this study is to identify the deformation micromechanisms operative in carbon fibre reinforced polymer composites and in the base polymers that act as the matrix material. The aim is to understand the ...
