THE DESIGN OF A CONSTANT STRESS CREEP TESTING UNIT
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1959)
A lever and cam to produce constant stress was designed to be adapted to an existing tensile creep testing unit located at the U. S. Naval Postgraduate School. The lever and cam, when installed, produced a stress which ...
HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS OF STEAM WATER MIXTURES
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1953)
It has become apparent during the course of instruction at the Naval Postgraduate School that the phenomena of heat transfer is of ever increasing importance in many fields of engineering. The attainment of higher thermal ...
EFFECT OF INCLUDED MEDIA ON THERMAL CONDUCTANCE OF CONTACT JOINTS
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1956)
Whenever an engineer turns to the available literature for
information concerning heat flow across a joint formed by two
pieces of material in simple contact, he is apt to read a phrase
similar to this, The resistance ...
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 ...
THE THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION OF A LIQUID HELIUM CRYOGENIC PUMP
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1964)
Cryogenic pumping is a means of maintaining a high vacuum with
large gas in-leakage rates. This is accomplished by the condensation
and freezing of the gas molecules onto a surface that is maintained at
a temperature ...
HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS OF STEAM WATER MIXTURES
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1954)
With the advent of nuclear power for propulsion of ships and for future industrial applications, an ever increasing importance is being placed on the phenomena of heat transfer toward the attainment of higher thermal ...
SOME SHOCK MOTIONS OF TWO DEGREE-OF-FREEDOM LINEAR SYSTEMS
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1960)
Damage sustained by equipment used in a moving carrier
suddenly changing its velocity can sometimes be attributed to inadequate
protective cushioning. Proper design of the protective
cushioning can be realized by reducing ...
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 ...
HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS OF STEAM WATER MIXTURES
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1955)
With power demands Increasing and natural power sources decreasing
it becomes more and more essential to attain maximum efficiency in the
conversion of fuel into useable power. The advent of controlled
nuclear power, ...
CORROSION AND WEAR RESISTANCE OF DUAL-REINFORCED AL-7075 COLD SPRAYED COATINGS
(Monterey, CA; Naval Postgraduate School, 2023-06)
Cold spray coatings using nano- and micro-sized reinforcements have been recognized for their improvement of mechanical properties such as adhesion strength and hardness. Unknown at this time are the effects that reinforced ...
