The preparation and x-ray structural characterization of dinuclear chromium, molybdenum, ruthenium, rhodium, and osmium complexes
(1983)
Eleven new dimeric complexes containing metal-metal bonds have been prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Seven are of the type M(,2)(O(,2)CR)(,4) (M = Cr, Mo, Rh; R = CH(,3), 2-biphenyl, CPh(,3), ...
A computerized model for the selection of materials handling equipment and area placement evaluation (SHAPE)
(1983)
This research presents a construction algorithm for solving the facilities design problem which is the joint solution of a plant layout problem and a materials handling equipment selection problem. The emphasis in this ...
The crystal and molecular structures of some sodium and potassium exchanged zirconium bis(monohydrogen orthophosphates) : the use of powder X-ray diffraction for structure solution
(1983)
Single crystal X-ray diffraction has for many become the definitive analysis technique. The procedure to collect data and to solve structures is not only readily available but is also highly automated. This is not the case ...
A near-optimal solution to the rural road-bridge rehabilitation problem
(1983)
In this research a model is developed to aid decision making in the allocation of limited funds in the improvement of a large-scale, rural road-bridge transportation system. After applying a geographic decomposition scheme ...
Optimal replacement policy for a semi-Markov shock model
(1983)
We examine a failure model for a system subject to a sequence of randomly occuring shocks. A shock is any perturbation to the system which causes a random amount of damage to the system. Any of the shocks can cause the ...
Bovine Humoral-phagocyte interaction in defense against Brucella abortus
(1983)
Bovine phagocytic polymorphonuclear leukocytes were collected from peripheral blood and separated into neutrophil (NEUT) and eosinophil (EOS) enriched suspensions by density gradient centrifugation. The cells were stimulated ...
The development of an automated measurement method for three dimensional mean flow fields
(1983)
A better characterization of the mean flow systems occurring in the discharge flows of rotating impellers can advance the knowledge of mixing mechanisms in agitated vessels. Since the flow field is rather complex, the ...
Geometry and mechanisms of folding related to growth faulting, Wilcox formation, De Witt County, Texas
(1983)
Growth faults and related folds are geologically and economically the most important structural features in the Gulf Coast province. Most existing theories do not adequately explain the observed fold geometries, and ...
Changing concepts of equal educational opportunity : a comparison of the views of Thomas Jefferson, Horace Mann, and John Dewey : a dissertation
(1983)
Current educational policies regarding equal educational opportunity are confused and often contradictory. To develop better policies, educators need to understand the historical development of the concept of equal opportunity ...
The biology of three species of Trichobaris LeConte (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Central Texas
(1983)
The biologies of the potato stalk weevil (PSW), Trichobaris trinotata (Say), Trichobaris texana LeConte, and Trichobaris bridwelli Barber were investigated in Houston, Brazos, and Robertson counties, respectively, Texas. ...
