Relaxation processes in polystyrene matrices
(1977)Dielectric absorption of aromatic and aliphatic molecules containing the rotatable substituent group and of some analogous rigid molecules in $olutions of polar solutes dispersed in an atactic polystyrene matrix are ... -
Effects of concentric and eccentric contractions on strength, retention and bilateral transfer
(1978)The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two different strength training methods, (concentric and eccentric) on strength, retention and bilateral transfer. Subjects were 22 male volunteers, aged 16 to 17. ... -
Transforming ordinary linear differential equations to constant coefficient differential equations
(1978)The main purpose of this thesis is to give a characterization of nth order linear homogeneous differential equations that can be transformed into constant coefficient differential equations. The characterization given ... -
Studies of the biology of swim bladder nematodes, Cystidicola spp. (Habronematoidea)
(1978)The life cycle and larval development of swim bladder nematodes, Cystidicola spp., have been elucidated. C, farionis developed in three species of amphipod. Naturally infected amphipods have been found previously but one ... -
Effects of various leg positions at the catch on the force of the rowing stroke
(1978)The purpose of this thesis was to test in isolation various leg and body movements in the rowing action and to relate them to forces created on the oar handle. The subjects were four senior oarsmen. The independent ... -
Hydrostatic pressure effect on the Gunn threshold electric effect in n-InSb
(1978)The Gunn effect as a function of pressure has been studied in n~type InSb. The Gunn threshold field is found to decrease with increasing pressure reaching a minimum at P ~ 9 kbars. It then increases while the oscillations ... -
Hall effect investigations in n-InSb under pressure
(1978)Low field electrical transport properties of n-InSb in the temperature range 6.4K-300K have been studied under pressures up to 15 kbar using Hall measurements. The pressure dependence of the carrier concentration, the ... -
Effects of regular long term hemodialysis on serum electrolytes and parathyroid hormone levels
(1978)Regular long term hemodialysis is the accepted method of treatment for patients with advanced renal failure. While it is effective in maintaining a patient in reasonably good health for long periods of time many problems ... -
Simple technique for measuring maximum aerobic capacity and its relation to state of training
(1978)In the past maximum aerobic power tests have been the standard means for measuring the trained state. Recent literature, however, states that the ability to work aerobically at a high percentage of one's maximum aerobic ... -
Higher order discretization of elliptic partial differential equations
(1979)Higher order finite difference methods are discussed with respect to speed and accuracy when used in the solution of elliptic partial differential equations. Although fast direct methods for solving elliptic ... -
Linearization of an abstract convexity space
(1978)Axiomatic convexity space, introduced by Kay and Womble [22] , will be the main topic discussed in this thesis. An axiomatic convexity space (X,C), which is domain finite and has regular straight segments, is called a ...
