Maurice L. Rasmussen; Donn B. Kirk; STANFORD UNIV CA
|
| An investigation is made of nonlinear oscillations in which the damping and static moments are represented by arbitrary polynomial functions of the dependent variable. When the nonlinear damping is small but the static nonlinearities arbitrarily large, an approximate solution is established which leads to expressions for the damping decrement involving elliptic integrals and gamma functions in special cases. An 'effective linear damping' is defined and a generalized formula for this ... |

| Authors:
Robert Victor Plank; STANFORD UNIV CA
|
| This thesis discusses a technique of precise placement of an optical flat on an almost spherical gyro rotor. An initial flat is placed near the minimum axis of inertia of a sphere. The flat is replaced by successive polishing operations until the minimum axis becomes the maximum axis and a desired alignment of the flat, approximately perpendicular, with the maximum axis is achieved.

| The sensitization process can be separated from the process of antibody uptake. The amount of antibody retained by in vitro sensitized tissues is proportional to the concentration of antibody present in the bulk phase of the solution used for sensitization. Temperature has little effect on the amount of antibody retained by the tissue as a whole but does affect the degree of sensitization achieved. The velocity of sensitization is proportional ... |

| Authors:
Arthur M. Geoffrion; STANFORD UNIV CA
|
| A study of individual decision-making under uncertainty is given. Several methods for circumventing uncertainty in the constraints are briefly reviewed, and several decision criteria for circumventing uncertainty in the objective function are discussed. Particular attention is devoted to the demonstration of certain relationships between these criteria. It is concluded that vector maximum reformulations play a prominent role in dealing with uncertainty in such decision problems. (Author) |

| Authors:
Charles W. Lenau; STANFORD UNIV CA
|
| An analysis is made of the effect of a longitudinal gravity field on two-dimensional supercavitating flow past wedges. Under the assumption that the flow is both irrotational and incom pressible, a nonlinear theory is developed for steady flow. A closed, finite cavity model is used. By utilizing the methods of conformal mapping in combination with the Schwarz reflection principle, the mathematical problem is reduced to a three-parameter, nonlinear integral equation ... |

| The equations for the laminar compressible boundary layer are presented along with the necessary boundary conditions. The equations are nondimensionalized, which results in using quantities of the same order of magnitude better suited for computations. The boundary-layer equations are also modified using the Howarth-Dorodnitsyn transformation, which results in equations advantageous for numerical computation when the flow is hypersonic. Since the boundary conditions require that the enthalpy and velocity be known ... |
