Revision of the nearctic species of the Cicindela sylvatica group (Coleoptera: Cicindelidae)
(1983)Interspecific and intraspecific variation of C. longilabris Say and C. nebraskana Casey were studied by means of discriminant analysis of morphometric data and univariate analysis of qualitative characters of adult ... -
Studies in Group VIII metal-phosphine-tetrahydroborate chemistry
(1976)Co(I) and nickel(T) complexes containing both bidentate and monodentate tetrahydroborate have been prepared from the reductions of divalent metal compounds in the presence of triphenylphosphine with ethanolic sodium ... -
Serious heart disease and cancer and the multidimensional health locus of control
(1983)The present research attempted to determine whether or not individuals' perceptions of serious heart disease and cancer would differentially affect health locus of control beliefs, as measured by the Multidimensional ... -
Elastic and inelastic scattering of conduction electrons from oscillating impurities in semiconductors
(1977)Elastic scattering and inelastic scattering of conduction electrons by oscillating ionized impurities in semiconductors have been analyzed on the assumption that the scattering potential is the Coulomb potential between ... -
Root pruning, wrenching and overwinter cold storage : effects on the morphological and physiological condition of transplant Picea glauca [Moench] Voss nursery stock
(1984)The objectives of this thesis were to; 1) evaluate the effect of a single early spring root pruning followed by a series of five root wrenching treatments at three week intervals on the morphological condition of rising ... -
Relationship of pre-competition arousal assessments to self-perceived performance competencies in rowers
(1983)This study used the technique of self-reporting to examine the relationship of pre-competition arousal symptoms and assessments to self-perceived performance competencies in rowers. A modified version of Rushall's (1977) ... -
Triangular finite element solution to boundary value problems
(1977)This Thesis discusses the triangular finite element solution to second order elliptic boundary value problems. The Barycentric Coordinate system, which some engineers call the areal coordinate system, is used throughout ... -
Hydrostatic pressure effect on the electrical conductivity of indium antimonide
(1976)The electrical conductivity of n-type InSb in the temperature range 77K - 300K has been calculated by using the Boltzmann equation with a relaxation time ansatz. The tv/o dominant scattering mechanisms in this temperature ... -
Effects of cognitive strategies on the performance of athletes
(1977)The purpose of this thesis was to study the effects of various cognitive strategies on the treadmill running performance of intercollegiate wrestlers (N=12), The independent variables were the four cognitive strategies ... -
Studies in the coordination chemistry of phospholes
(1977)The chemical, physicochemical, theoretical and metal coordination studies of phospholes which have so far appeared in the literature are reviewed briefly with particular reference to the electronic structure of the ... -
Theory of inner measures : an axiomatic approach
(1975, c197)This thesis presents an axiomatic approach to the theory of inner measures. In Chapter I, we recognize that an axiomatic approach analogous to that for the theory of outer measures is not appropriate: such an approach ... -
Partial synthesis of chaksine
(1976)This thesis is concerned with the preliminary studies in the synthesis of a monoterpenoid alkaloid, chaksine, Ethyl 2-methylcyclohexanone-6-carboxylate (XI) was hydroxymethylated with formaldehyde to give Ethyl 2-me ... -
Low temperature pyrolysis of wood waste materials
(1976)The pyrolysis of jack pine bark, jack pine sawdust, and cellulose powder has been studied by thermogravimetric (TG), and isothermal weight-loss methods in both inert and oxidizing atmospheres. The effects of particle ... -
Effects of two training methods on flexibility
(1977)The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two different flexibility training methods, 3S (Scientific Stretching for Sport) and SS (Slow Active Stretching). Warmup effects, differential joint responses, and ... -
Numerical integration of systems of differential equations arising in celestial mechanics / by Roy D. North. --
(1974)This thesis deals primarily with solving systems of autonomous ordinary nonlinear differential equations arising in Celestial Mechanics initial value problems using various finite-difference techniques. Those methods ...
