The role of standards, codes and specifications in a modern Navy.
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1962)
Measurement of thermoelectric power in the temperature range of 80K to 230K for germanium, lead telluride, and bismuth telluride.
(Monterey, California: U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1960)
The measurement of thin oil films under dynamic loading conditions using light and x-ray techniques
(Monterey, California. U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1967-06)
A study was made of the behavior of thin oil films under dynamic loading conditions using light and x-ray techniques. This was done by passing light and x-ray beams between two cylindrical disks which suddenly squeezed oil ...
Nucleate pool boiling of nitrogen from artificial cavities
(Monterey, California. U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1967-09)
Pool boiling heat transfer of nitrogen from artifical cavities was investigated. Boiling was from circular, one inch diameter horizontal mirror finished copper plates. The single artifical cavity surfaces investigate were: ...
Plate Buckling Analysis by the Finite Element Method
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1968-06)
An investigation was made of the buckling of rectangular plates
with free, simply supported, or clamped edges and loaded in uniform
compression or pure shear. The finite element method with a rectangular,
sixteen-degree-of ...
A friction and wear study of carbon in sliding contact with metal.
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1962)
This investigation concerns the mechanical wear of carbon in sliding
contact with metal. The combinations of carbon and metal materials tested
were some of those normally used for mechanical seal applications. The ...
A Photographic Investigation of Bubble Nucleation from Artificial Cavities
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School., 1968-06)
High speed motion pictures of bubble nucleation from glass capillaries
were obtained. The fluids used were: distilled water, water with wetting
agent, water with sucrose, and ethanol. Capillaries of cylindrical, conical,
and ...
Design and Operation of a Heat Pipe
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1968-06)
An experimental stainless steel heat pipe using water as the working
fluid and 400 mesh stainless steel screen for a wick was designed and
tested to determine the effect of gravity and nucleate boiling on heat
pipe ...
A computer program for the analysis of linearly elastic plane-stress, plane-strain problems.
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1968-09)
The computer program for the analysis of linearly elastic plane-stress
or plane-strain problems devised by Felippa in his work on
"Refined Finite Element Analysis of Linear and Nonlinear Two-dimensional
Structures" has ...
Experimental Techniques to Determine Ntu of Compact Heat Exchanger Surfaces
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1968-09)
Two new transient testing techniques were evaluated; the centrold
method developed by Kohlmayr and the time zero intercept technique. The
zero intercept method was found to be the most promising of the two but
is limited ...
