Continuum Percolation Models of Composite Materials: Conductivity of Conductive Medium Containing Insulating Needles
(1988)The research for my Senior Individualized Project was performed in a research assistantship in the Condensed Matter Physics Branch of the Physics/Astronomy Department of Michigan State University. The majority of our ... -
Conversion of Electrical to Acoustic Energy by a Spark
(1967)In this research, an attempt is made to view the spark from energy considerations. An insight into the relationship between the energy used to produce a spark and the transformation of this initial energy into other ... -
Cooling Pond Modeling
(1971)For the purposes of micrometeorology the atmosphere near the surface can be divided into three general regions. First, immediately adjacent to the surface exists a very thin laminar sublayer in which the air flow is smooth ... -
COPROD: A Computer Program for the Calculation of Cobalt-60 Isotope Production in the Big Rock Point Power Reactor
(1970)Consumers Power Company (Jackson, Michigan) produces well over 106 Curies per year of the isotope cobalt-60 at its Big Rock Point Power Reactor in Charlevoix, Michigan. A computer program (COPROD - for CObalt PRODuction ... -
Critical Current Determination in High-Quality YBCO Rings for Application in a Fault Current Limiter
(2001)The first section of this work is an introduction to basic properties of superconductors and the theory of operation of a superconducting fault current limiter (FCL). The set of experiments described in the subsequent ... -
Cryostat Chamber Construction
(2005)This project describes the steps taken in constructing a cryostat chamber for use in hightemperature superconductor research. The paper begins with a small introduction describing the history of superconductor research ... -
Current Distributions of Resistor Networks : An Analogy to Information Flow
(2011)This paper details the methods, models, and results of this two part project. The premise of this project is that the information flow between two points in a network can be analogous to the current flow between those two ... -
The Current-Voltage Characteristic of a Nickel to N-Type Silicon Junction
(1969)Contacts between metals and semiconductors have been under investigation for many years because of the value of their asymmetric conduction properties in producing rectification. F. Braun was one of the earliest ... -
A Customized Artificial Communication System for the Physically Handicapped
(1984)This project is merely a stage in the creation of a computer system. In a previous stage, a developmental prototype was designed and built by the Artificial Language Laboratory at Michigan State University. Developed seven ... -
Decay Study of Pb202m
(1970)The decay of 3.62 hour Pb202m has been studied using high-resolution y-ray spectroscopy in an effort to elucidate its nuclear structure. Singles and y-y coincidence measurements were taken with the result that the previously ... -
Decomposition of Virus Normal Modes into Spherical Harmonics An Exploration of Symmetry Adapted Functions (SAFs)
(2020-02-13)The normal modes for viruses, in which all of its atoms are oscillating at the same frequency, can be thought of as a very complicated system of masses and springs. Each atom has its own mass, and the bonds between atoms ... -
Delphi - A General Purpose Research Data Editing Language
(1980)Data editing is the process of checking data for possible inaccuracies. This paper describes possible types of data edits, discusses the underlying theory . used in generating a "complete set of edits" and the finding and ... -
Design and Construciton of a Photodiode-Based Passive Spectrometer
(2005)The use of passive spectroscopy to determine electron temperatures is well documented and has the important benefit of being noninvasive. The use of line intensities in particular is important because other spectrographic ... -
The Design and Construction of a Helium Dewar System
(1971)THE PURPOSE OF THIS PAPER IS TO PRESENT ASPECTS OF THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A HELIUM DEWAR SYSTEM. AN EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND SECTION PRESENTS THE READER WITH A FOUNDATION IN THE PROBLEMS OF DEWAR SYSTEM DESIGN. THE ... -
The Design and Construction of an Automatic Interferometer
(1970)The idea of building an automatic interferometer :. stemmed from a specific problem. During the generation of complex optical surfaces there occurs a certain stage in the process of fine grinding at which the use of ... -
Design and construction of Atmospheric Telemetering Devices
(1977)The purpose of this project was to build and fly a radio-controlled model airplane, which would be used to carry radio telemetering instruments. These instruments would measure temperature, pressure, and wind speed in the ...
