Minimum competencies for electronics technicians in high technology electronics industries
(1993)
The purpose of this study was to identify the minimum competencies needed by an associate degree electronics technician for entry into high technology electronics industries. The second purpose of this study was to determine ...
A generalized methodology for manufacturability evaluation
(1993)
In a design for manufacturing (DFM) approach the designer has to consider the interactions between the various parameters in the design and the ease with which it can be manufactured, very early in the design process. This ...
Conceptual development in physical therapy students
(1994)
The purpose of this study was to investigate processes used by physical therapy students in developing conceptual knowledge in physical therapy. Qualitative methods were used to collect data during a 15-week course entitled ...
Characterization of Bursal Anti-steroidogenic Peptide : an Anti-steroidogenic Peptide derived from the humoral immune system of chickens
(1994)
Phenomenological association of alterations of immune system function at the time of puberty (e.g. involution of the chicken bursa of Fabricius) has led to postulation that the humoral immune system may negatively affect ...
Analysis and characterization of the bovine Stearoyl COA Desaturase-1 gene
(1994)
The carcass characteristics of Angus, American Wagyu and Japanese Black cattle, which had been fed to the Japanese market endpoint, were analyzed. While some of the Angus steers displayed marbling comparable to the Wagyu ...
A comparative analysis of spelling skills utilizing a computer-based spelling assessment instrument
(1994)

The 1993 basals versus the 1987 versions : examining four reading series for the proportion of literature-based stories, adaptions, and award-winning literature
(1994)
In the past, evaluations of basal reading series have suggested using less tightly controlled stories, usually written by the publishing companies to fit a readability formula, and more on using children's literature in ...
Particle lift force and particle behavior in suspension flows
(1994)
In this study, particle lift force and its influence on particle behavior are considered in suspension flows. Saffman force, a particle lift force derived in parallel laminar shear flow, is extended to a general particle ...
Synthesis and electrical discharge machining of advanced ceramics containing zirconium diboride
(1994)
The objectives of this research are to synthesize composites containing zirconium diboride under a variety of conditions, to fabricate ZrB$sb2$-based materials using wire-cutting and die-sinking electrical discharge machines, ...
Dimension reduction in semiparametric measurement error models with errors in covariates
(1993)
In many regression models one or more of the covariates are measured with error. It is well known that in such situations, traditional estimation procedures using the mismeasured covariates can lead to misleading results. ...
