Vertical structure of the low-frequency currents at Drake Passage
(1982)
Recently collected hydrographic data show that each of the four water mass zones previously identified in Drake Passage is characterized by a distinctly different vertical profile of Brunt-Vaisala frequency. Stratification ...
A numerical study on the evolution of tornadoes
(1982)
The evolution of the thermal and dynamic structure of tornadoes is studied via numerical simulation. The model, which is axisymmetric, includes prognostic equations governing motion, a diagnostic pressure equation, and ...
An investigation of some basic factors associated with the influence of nutrition and stress on reproductive efficiency of the bovine
(1982)
The objective of this research project was to investigate the effects of nutrition and stress related factors on basic physiological parameters. Studies were designed and conducted independently to evaluate (1) the effects ...
Surface electronic states in semiconductors and surface phonons : a new approach
(1982)
A new technique--the analytic Green's function, effective Hamiltonian technique--is utilized in calculations of bound states and resonances at solid surfaces. The results for electronic states in compound semiconductors ...
Forms and functions of black humor in the fiction of Evelyn Waugh
(1982)
The black humor novel is a distinctive form of contemporary satire which relies heavily upon parodic structure, verbal disjunctions and truncations, and flattened characterizations. While this literary form is usually ...
The governance and administration of British universities, polytechnics, and central institutions : the present status and trends for the future
(1986)
The purpose of the study was to describe and compare the structure and function of the governing and administrative bodies of British universities, polytechnics, and central institutions, and to present a view of the future ...
The effects of problem structure and dialogue type on the performance of the man/machine interface
(1986)
This research project is intended to provide guidance for software designers who must decide on a dialogue style for interactive problem solving support for new or infrequent users. In addition, it examines the relative ...
The effect of resin toughness on the delamination fracture behavior of graphite/epoxy composites
(1985)
The objective of this dissertation research was to develop improved understanding of the deformation and fracture physics of delamination in resin toughened graphite/epoxy composites. Experiments were conducted in pure ...
Karyotypic, genic, and morphological variation in the lizard Sceloporus olivaceus
(1984)
Sceloporus olivaceus, an iguanid lizard of the spinosus group ranges throughout Texas and northeastern Mexico and was subjected to karyotypic, genic, and morphological analyses. Karyotypes were examined in 13 sample ...
