This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thougtit that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 31 (thesis year 1986) a total of 11 ,480 theses titles trom 24 Canadian and 182 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base tor these titles reported will greatly enhance the value ot this important annual reterence work. While Volume 31 reports theses submitted in 1986, on occasion, certain univer sities do re port theses submitted in previousyears but not reported at the time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report is an interim report for the first phase of an ongoing project entitled 'Effectiveness and Environmental Impact of Road Dust Suppressants' on the cooperative research of Colorado State University and the Larimer County Department of Roads and Bridges. The research was initiated in the summer of 1992 and will be completed by June 1994. The original project was extended due to the inability to collect dependable quantitative water quality and dust data in the first several months of the project. Although preliminary in nature, the research results indicate that: 1) road suppressants have an impact on the water quality concentrations of runoff from the treated road surfaces; 2) road dust production increases linearly with vehicle speed; 3) the lignin based suppressants appeared to perform better than the calcium chloride and magnesium chloride based suppressants; and 4) the measuring device, the Colorado State University Dustometer, developed in the research is a precise research tool which can be used in future dust studies, out-performing easily the stationary bucket method for collecting dust samples.

Download or read book Profitability and Mobility in Rural America written by William R. Gillis and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural transportation facilities and services play a critical role in supporting both commerce and quality of life in rural America. The cost and availability of freight transportation services affects the profitability of farms and businesses that depend on those services to bring production inputs and consumer products into rural areas and to carry local products to markets. Similarly, passenger transportation services are important to mobility of rural residents to gain access to the opportunities and culture of the nation. Recent economic problems in rural communities, deregulation of transportation services, and increased responsibility of local governments for building and maintaining rural roads each have stimulated renewed concern for rural transportation issues. This book looks at both the critical problems faced by rural regions and the successful approaches that have been used to help state and local governments, as well as rural enterprises, deal with those problems. Written by professionals who are active in the field of transportation economics, and who are all at land-grant institutions, the text is based primarily on the experiences of the Cooperative Extension Services and transportation institutes affiliated with land-grant universities. After a brief overview of emerging rural transportation issues and the educational challenges associated with those issues, chapters provide a comprehensive examination of key transportation issues: provision and financing of rural roads and bridges; deregulation of agricultural transportation; evaluation of the contribution of transportation to economic development; firm level transportation management; rural passenger transportation problems and solutions; and the movement of hazardous materials. Included are several case studies of successful approaches that have been used to tackle rural transportation problems in rural areas. Providing in a single volume, for the first time, a comprehensive evaluation of rural transportation issues and potential solutions, this book is a valuable resource for educators, practitioners, and students in the field of rural transportation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dust generation by vehicles on unsealed roads can cause serious air pollution, reduce visibility and the safety of motorists, pedestrians and workers and pose an overall hazard to health. Prior to the development of a road dust monitor, dust levels were either subjectively judged on a scale of one to five by the driver of the vehicle or by an observer at the roadside, or dust was collected in receptacles and then weighed. For obvious reasons, these methods are unacceptable for the monitoring of the effectiveness of dust palliatives or for the determination of acceptability criteria for dust on unsealed roads. A vehicle-mounted dust monitor was developed at the CSIR to quantify road dust levels. This dust monitor, which incorporates an infra-red measuring system, was developed in three phases over a four year period. A statically mounted system was developed for use on very rough roads, underground haul roads and sections where dust needs to be measured over extended periods. Road roughness contributes significantly to vehicle operating costs and is therefore used to determine optimum maintenance intervals. Accurate measuring equipment is required for experimental work to develop deterioration models and to compare the performance of stabilised sections. In South Africa, a Linear Displacement Integrator (LDI) has been used for roughness measurements. However, this equipment is relatively expensive, vehicle dependant and generally unsuitable for accurately measuring short experimental sections. The CSIR therefore identified the need for a low-cost road roughness integrator (LORRI) for use in areas where it is not feasible to use an LDI. The LORRI incorporates a frame with front and rear wheels. A trailing arm with a measuring wheel is attached to the front wheel. A linear potentiometer connected between the frame and the trailing arm measures vertical movement and hence the road roughness. Speed and distance travelled is determined with a metal detection and sensor system. Data is processed on a data acquisition system and information is displayed and stored on a notebook computer. Repeatability tests and a comparison with an LDI were carried out on road surfaces of varying roughness. The repeatability of the measurements were considered acceptable and the comparison of the LORRI measurements with those of the LDI correlated well. The LORRI can be used where traditional equipment is not feasible nor cost-effective, for quality control of labour intensive and community based construction and maintenance and calibration of LDI equipment.
