(Stochastic Geomechanics Laboratory, 21-Feb)Internal report on the development steps for a Risk Assessment and Management model using Bayesian Networks. The objectives of the model include: mapping qualitatively participating processes needed to simulate prognosis ...
-
(1976)Part I. Through a literature search on the mechanics of thrust faulting, I have found that reduction of the effective downward stress component of the overburden pressure due to abnormal fluid pressures in the subsurface ...
-
(1976)I have proposed to study the elements of the South American jungle novels, to make a comparison of this style of Super-regionalism with that of the style which deals with other areas, and to make a detailed analysis of The ...
-
(1976)This paper considers the upward continuation of single profiles of vertical magnetic data taken across models where all the information is contained in a single profile. The single profile upward continuation integral ...
-
(1976)This study was primarily designed to determine whether “The Revolt of Islam” by Percy Bysshe Shelley is a Medieval Romance or not. In the course of this study, it was found that I first had to arrive at a definition of ...
-
(1976)The study also changed my evaluation of Mark. Before the study I considered Mark the least sophisticated and profound of the Gospels. Because of Mark's misleading simplicity and apparent brevity, I overlooked the significance ...
-
(1976)The purpose of this project has been to evaluate and compare methods for predicting rotor performance. This evaluation suggests that rotor performance prediction can be accomplished using simple closed form algebraic ...
-
(1976)Immunization against learned helplessness has been found in dogs and rats; this study tested for the same effect in man. College students were divided into four groups; the helplessness control group received no immunization ...
-
(1976)The preparation of thin uniform films of biomolecules has been a frequently encountered problem in chemical analysis techniques such as charged particle activation analysis, photoelectron spectroscopy, and with the recently ...
-
(1976)Gravity data from the Cape May region of the eastern United States was employed to determine the behavior of the crust-mantle interface in the transition region of the continental margin. By using the Talwani method of ...
-
(1976)This study was an attempt to reproduce the field variations observed during a particular polar magnetic substorm by a simple model current system. A line current model consisting of flow down field lines, along auroral ...
-
(1976)Since blood is the transport medium for the materials to be exchanged, the understanding of the flow of blood is essential to the understanding of the materials exchange. The nature of the blood flow varies considerably ...
-
(1976)The purpose of this paper is to examine those cul-de-sac images in Dostoevsky's major novels in which the villains--principally Svidrigailov in Crime and Punishment, Stavrogin in The Possessed, and Smerdyakov in The Brothers ...
-
The Source Of Walt Whitman's View Of Women In Leaves Of Grass: A Redefinition Of The Maternal Role (1976)Whitman's vision of woman was a vision of motherhood. Thus a woman must be dauntless, intelligent, strong because she is the mother of unborn generations. If she possesses such laudable traits, she will become the source ...
-
(1976)Investigations of the direct current resistivity theory on which induced polarization theory is partially based, have lead to development of expressions which more clearly indicate the contribution of the perturbing layers. ...
-
(1976)A classical two-dimensional, bending-torsion flutter analysis of a reference airfoil in a cascade of infinite blades is performed. The unsteady airloads on the reference airfoil are predicted using a numerical lifting ...
-
(1976)Food habits of gizzard shad, threadfin shad, and blue tilapia were studied in summer and winter, 1975. Stomach contents of all three species consisted predominantly of organic detritus, followed by green algae, blue-greens,and ...
-
(1976)The energy flux terms in the surface heat balance equation were computed using parameterizations and mean monthly temperature, precipitation, planetary albedo, cloudiness, and vapor pressure data for 85 very dry locations. ...
-
(1976)This research project represents the search for what turned out to be the ideal. It is, however, fortunate that a successful research project is not always dependent upon proving a preconceived idea or product. Perhaps the ...
