Imperfections in TNT.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1959)
A literature search was conducted to determine the extent of explosive
crystallographic data in the literature. The results of that search
are reported herein. Explosives are extremely unstable and it is felt by
the ...
The buckling action of hollow cylinders subject to internal pressure.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
The buckling action of hollow cylinders, subjected to internal
pressure, was investigated under various conditions of axial load in the
cylinder walls. The theory of Euler was found to apply where the modulus
of elasticity ...
Lubrication study of an oscillating bearing.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
This investigation covers the regimes of operation of an
unidirectionally loaded sleeve bearing. The particular journal
studied was a hardened steel member oscillating through 30 , at
various loads and speeds in a ...
An electrical analogy for analysis of flow through cascades
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
A method of analysis of arbitrary cascades under conditions of ideal fluid flow is described. The method is based on conformal transformation, achieved experimentally through an electrical analogy. Tests were conducted ...
The effect of work hardening on the fatigue properties of ferritic stainless steel at elevated temperature.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
The purpose of this study was to determine, to what extent the
improvement in fatigue strength obtained by cold work is altered by
cyclic stresses at elevated temperature. A series of fatigue tests were conducted using ...
A Low Power Reactor Simulator
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
Real time simulation of the time-dependent behavior of low power
thermal reactors is amenable to analog computer techniques. This paper
presents the basic physical concepts relative to thermal reactor operation,
a ...
Investigation of the interrelation of some of the dominating variables of a Las Salinas type solar still.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
Solar stills similar to the type first built in las Salinas,
Chile, in 1872, are today the type which show the greatest promise
for utilization of solar energy for the conversion of sea water to
fresh water. In this ...
A study of the effect of the alpha to gamma phase transformation on the short time creep behavior of an iron-chromium-nickel alloy.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
An investigation was undertaken in order to determine the effect of
the alpha to gamma transformation on the short time creep behavior of an
iron-10% chromiun-10% nickel alloy. Test temperatures ranged from 450 degrees ...
Wear of unlubricated steel surfaces.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
An investigation was made of the wear, under varying conditions of
load and speed, of an annealed steel finger held against a rotating hardened
steel sleeve. Measurement of the wear was made by weight and
volume change ...
A nuclear magnetic resonance device for classifying grounded mines
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1958)
This thesis is a study of the feasibility of classifying submerged mines by means of a nuclear magnetic resonance device which observes the gradients in the perturbed magnetic field of the earth in the vicinity of the ...
