Mollusca From the Miocene and Lower Pliocene of Virginia and North Carolina: Part 2. Scaphopoda and Gastropoda

Description: Introduction: Part 2 of the Systematic Report continues and concludes the study of the Mollusca from the Miocene and lower Pliocene of Virginia and North Carolina. One hundred and nineteen species, only a fraction of the known fauna, are reviewed and 66 additional species are described and figured. (See faunal chart, pp. 180-183.) The report upon the gastropods suffers from the same shortcomings obvious in the work on the pelecypods. Most of the material is from old collections made before the … more

Safety Practices in Dredging and Hydraulic Mining

Description: From Scope of Report: "This paper is based upon the observations made and the records received while dredging and hydraulic-mining operations were visited in Alaska during 1946 and in California during 1946 and 1947. Data from 30 active dredging operations and 34 active hydraulic operations are incorporated in this paper."

Uranium Tetrachloride Two One-Year Inhalation Toxicity Studies of Animals at 0.2 and 0.05 mg U/m3

Description: The following report analyzes studies of chronic inhalation toxicity from uranium tetrachloride dust in animals who were exposed daily for a year for the purpose of determining "borderline" or safe levels of exposure for the duration of one year.

Uranium Tolerance and Citrate Excretion

Description: Abstract: "Previously, an acquired tolerance to the toxic action of uranium compounds was developed in two mammalian species, rats and rabbits. In rats made tolerant by repeated injections of uranium an increased excretion of urinary citrate was demonstrated. In these experiments a tolerance to uranium has been produced in dogs. Further, these tolerant dogs evidenced an increased excretion of urinary citrate. The significance of these results is described."

The X-ray Investigation of the Uranium Hydrogen System: The Structure of UH₃

Description: From abstract: "The uranium-hydrogen system has been examined by X-ray diffraction. This study has revealed one cubic hydride (UH3). Since the structure of the hydride is unrelated to the structures of any of the metal and the hydride has a definite composition, it is not an interstitial solid solution but a true compound."

Methyl Methacrylate Casting Resin

Description: Abstract: "This report describes work done to improve the casting characteristics of methyl methacrylete resin under CMR-6-18 authorization. The experimental program was initiated with the objectives of decreasing casting time, bubble formation and shrinkage. It has been found that by use of a common solvent for monomer and polymer concentration in monomer can be attained greater than any previously reported in preparation of a methacrylate casting resign. Incorporation of this greater amount o… more

Analysis of variation of piston temperature with piston dimensions and undercrown cooling

Description: From Summary: "A theoretical analysis is presented that permits estimation of the changes in piston-temperature distribution induced by variations in the crown thickness, the ring-groove-pad thickness, and the undercrown surface heat-transfer coefficient. The analysis consists of the calculation of operating temperatures at various points in the piston body on the basis of the experimentally determined surface heat-transfer coefficients and boundary-region temperatures, as well as arbitrarily s… more

Consumption of Slab Zinc in the United States by Industries, Grades, and Geographic Divisions, 1940-45: Including a Summary of Consumption Since 1900

Description: Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing the U.S. slab-zinc consumption between the years of 1940-1945. As stated in the introduction, "this information circular summarized basic data collected for many years by the Bureau of Mines, but in particular presents for the 1940-45 period details derived from the comprehensive slab zinc consumption survey inaugurated in 1940" (p. 3). The different uses for slab zinc are presented. This report includes maps, tables, and illustrations.
