An Introduction to the Kalamazoo College Accelerator
(1971)A copy of this thesis is also housed in the Kalamazoo College Archives. -
Investigating the Feasibility of a Composite Under Hood Engine Component
(1998)During the summer of 1998, I worked at Siemens Automotive in Auburn Hills, :MI. Siemens Automotive is a smaller division of the Siemens Corporation. Siemens Automotive designs and manufactures automobile parts for the ... -
Investigation into the causes of degrading radio signals during Geomagnetic Storms
(2022-02-25)The release of solar winds from the sun has drastic effects on the Earth’s geomagnetic field and the Ionosphere. GPS navigation uses radio signals that travel from a satellite to a ground receiver, passing through the ... -
An Investigation into Turbulent, Incompressible Flow Through Pipes
(1982)In the Fall of 1982, I worked in the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory at GMI Engineering and Management Institute, Flint, Michigan. My position there was to assist with the design and construction of a system to analyze ... -
Investigation of Biasing on Microchannel Plate . Operation in the Presence of Magnetic Fields
(1992)This paper begins with some general background about the Plasma Physics Laboratory and an introduction to the parallel field analyzer and microchannel plate detectors. This is followed by a discussion of the past results ... -
Investigation of Percent Depth Dose for HVL 3.0 mm Cu X-Rays and 4 Mev X-Rays
(1972)In radiation therapy, or the therapeutic treatment of patients with x-rays, a quantity known as percent depth dose is an important quantity invariably used in some form in treatment planning. In an experiment performed at ... -
Investigation of the Effect of Frequency on the Degaussing of High Tc Superconductors
(1991)Motion in a model maglev train had been impeded by the buildup of remanent magnetic fields in superconducting YBCO tiles that make up the train's "roadbed." To solve this problem a 60 Hz a-c current had been passed ... -
Investigation of the Effect of Magnetic Field on the Growth of Penicillium
(1972)Every living organism on earth is subjected to the normal geomagnetism. It has been demonstrated that birds can use geomagnetism as their guiding instrument during their flights. because there is slight change of direction ... -
An Investigation of Wind-Induced Foam Lines on Lake Mendota
(1966-01-03)This paper is concerned chiefly with wind streaks-lines of foam and debris that align themselves parallel to the direction of the wind. It is the intent of this paper, through research done on Lake Mendota in Madison, ... -
Investigations into the tunneling magnetoresistance effects in thin films of (La1−yPry)1−xCaxMnO3
(2022)Thin lms of (La1−yPry)1−xCaxMnO3 (LPCMO) are known to undergo phase separation between a ferromagnetic metallic (FMM) phase and a charged-ordered insulator (COI) phase. When cooled down from room temperature to achieve ... -
Job Account: Program Translation, Input Logic, and Message Checks
(1973)For my Senior Independent Project, I wrote several computer programs for the Upjohn Pharmaceutical Company. The body of this report had been circulated at the Upjohn Company as three separate memos. -
Laser Induced Evaporation of Carbon for Mass Spectroscopic Study
(1964)This paper will present a study of the problems encountered when focused ruby laser radiation 1s employed as a vaporizing agent to produce metallic vapor for mass spectroscopic analysis. -
Laser Operation and Related Optical Phenomena
(1965-10-07) -
Least Squares Fitting on an Integral Equation
(1980)The object was to develop an algorithm for calculating the optimal parameter values (A,B,fD) of an equation Y=AX(fn)+B, such that the change in the error was less than a predetermined amount. Different methods of fitting ... -
Light Diffraction by Ultrasonic Waves
(1964)In this paper, diffraction of light by ultrasonic waves is examined. The equation for the wavelength of sound in water is derived and the Raman and Nath equations for the intensity distribution due to 1) pure progressive ... -
Lighting with the Apple II: An Alternative Means of Computerizing Theatre Lighting Control
(1981)For my senior independent project I chose to address the field of technical theatre, and in particular, lighting control. With the growth of electronics technology, theatre lighting has become increasingly automated, ... -
Low Energy Beam Observation
(2003)My summer research project was to design and test a pico-ammeter to measure the intensity of ion beams in the Low Energy Beam and Ion Trap (LEBIT) Project. The picoammeter was built with the specification to measure ... -
Low Temperature Thermopower of Pt - Co Alloys: Spin Fluctuation Systems
(1976)The transport properties of a series of Pt - Co alloys are studied. Initial measurements of the thermopower of 0.3, 0.7, 1.5, and 4.0 at .% (atomic percent) Pt - Co alloys are displayed. The observed thermopower anomaly ... -
A Low-Cost, DC/Low-Frequency Response FM/FM Telemetry System for Orthopedic Gait Analysis, Biomechanical Measurements, and Other Applications
(1976)This paper is intended to describe the design, operating principles, and implementation of a telemetry instrumentation system. The essential characteristics of the system are: 1) It is effective for the acquisition of ... -
The Magnetic Behavior of Superconducting YBa2Cu3O7 Pellets Under a Short-term Pulsed Magnetic Field
(1998)This paper begins with an introduction to the properties and theories of superconductors, including Bean's Critical State Model. A theory of magnetic diffusion is advanced as a possible improvement of this model. The ...
