1-alkoxyvinyl esters as synthetic intermediates
Thesis
Thomas, J. A. G. (1968). 1-alkoxyvinyl esters as synthetic intermediates

The chemistry and properties of 1-alkoxyvinyl esters and of cyclopropanones are reviewed. A number of 1-ethoxyvinyl esters have been isolated, both for their intrinsic interest and also because of their value as synthetic intermediates. Phthaloyl...

Defects in single crystals of silver halides and calcium oxide have been investigated principally by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Studies of the properties of iron dissolved in silver chloride and bromide have revealed that threshold tempera... Read More about Electron spin resonance studies of defects in ionic crystals.

Time interval statistics in speech synthesis: A critical evaluation
Thesis
Underwood, M. J. (1968). Time interval statistics in speech synthesis: A critical evaluation

A speech wave that has been successively amplified and limited so that it is reduced to a rectangular form is intelligible to a human listener. Much information is retained in the temporal pattern of the time-intervals between the changes of state of... Read More about Time interval statistics in speech synthesis: A critical evaluation.

A study of characteristic energy losses from certain metals
Thesis
Allen, R. M. (1969). A study of characteristic energy losses from certain metals

Tho characteristic energy loss spectra of five metals have been measured under clean, ultra-high vacuum conditions.

A study of coherence phenomena in an ammonia maser
Thesis
Bardo, W. S. (1969). A study of coherence phenomena in an ammonia maser

The design and operation of an advanced ammonia beam maser is described. Special features of the design permit operation of the device as an oscillator without the benefit of pumping with liquid nitrogen. Further, one novel feature allows variation o...

Studies on the syntheses of azonia-azulenes and related compounds
Thesis
Collington, E. W. (1969). Studies on the syntheses of azonia-azulenes and related compounds

Some substituted azonia-azulenes have been prepared for the first time. The synthetic route involves the double elimination of hydrogen bromide from the appropriate a,a-dibromoketone using lithium chloride in dimethylformamide. Attempts have been m...

A comparison of two measures of attitude: Scalogram analysis and the semantic differential test
Thesis
Cooney, D. S. (1969). A comparison of two measures of attitude: Scalogram analysis and the semantic differential test

The supposed identity of the evaluative factor of the semantic differential with another measure of attitude, a Guttman scale, is discussed and empirically investigated. Theoretical considerations suggest that the degree of association observed may... Read More about A comparison of two measures of attitude: Scalogram analysis and the semantic differential test.

The geology of the Lewisian rocks north of Loch Torridon, Ross-Shire, Scotland
Thesis
Cresswell, D. (1969). The geology of the Lewisian rocks north of Loch Torridon, Ross-Shire, Scotland

The Lewisian rocks of Loch Torridon consist of banded acid gneisses enclosing a number of basic and ultrabasic bodies and cut by a swarm of NW-SE trending basic dykes and by a later set of pegmatite dykes and a granite sheet. No definite conclusion... Read More about The geology of the Lewisian rocks north of Loch Torridon, Ross-Shire, Scotland.

“My husband knows what is best for me…”: An exploration of educated Saudi women’s views towards domestic violence
Thesis
Nahshal, M. (2018). “My husband knows what is best for me…”: An exploration of educated Saudi women’s views towards domestic violence

Domestic violence, as we know from existing literature, is an ancient and global phenomenon (United Nations Report, 1970-90, 1991; World Health Organisation, 2005; Kaur & Garg, 2008). However, in Saudi Arabia, the problem of domestic violence only ca...

Set theory and truth
Thesis
Dale, A. J. (1969). Set theory and truth

This thesis covers a number of related topics in the foundations of set theory. Section 1 contains an analysis of the paradoxes which suggests a way of looking at the axioms of any formalised set theory as to a certain extent legislating how 'is a me... Read More about Set theory and truth.

Studies on the ecology and taxonomy of Thermophilous fungi
Thesis
Evans, H. C. (1969). Studies on the ecology and taxonomy of Thermophilous fungi. (Thesis)

An ecological study of thermophilous fungi was undertaken, with particular reference to their occurrence in the coal spoil tips in the Stoke-on-Trent area. A wide variety of fungal species was isolated during these investigations, and species were di... Read More about Studies on the ecology and taxonomy of Thermophilous fungi.

On flow masers with separated emission fields
Thesis
Krause, W. H. U. (1969). On flow masers with separated emission fields

In 1954 the invention of the ammonia molecular beam maser oscillator, through Charles Hard TOWNES and co-workers and Nikolai Gennadievich BASOV and Alexander Mikhailovich PROKHOROV, opened a new area of applied physics, the field of quantum electroni...

Thesis
Ball, N. (1970). Voluntary effort in English elementary schools, 1846 to 1870: a study of the contribution of school managers to educational developments

Before 1070, the decision as to whether to establish a public elementary school and whether to accept or reject government aid rested with private individuals, the 'promoters of schools' who are the concern of this study. Some schools, both denominat... Read More about Voluntary effort in English elementary schools, 1846 to 1870: a study of the contribution of school managers to educational developments.
