A study of thresholds for signals having changing pitch
Thesis
Pick, G. F. (1973). A study of thresholds for signals having changing pitch

In this dissertation, the threshold for stimuli with changing pitch has been discussed in terms of some simple psychophysical phenomena. The intention was to seek those effects which could not be explained in such terms, and to examine these further,... Read More about A study of thresholds for signals having changing pitch.

The construction and characteristics of an ammonia beam maser employing a fabry-perot cavity
Thesis
Sealy Smart, G. D. (1973). The construction and characteristics of an ammonia beam maser employing a fabry-perot cavity

The construction of an ammonia molecular beam maser employing an open resonator is described. The operation of this maser as an amplifier enables the effects of mode degeneracy in the resonator to be examined in a controlled manner. Its operation abo...

Slow crack propagation in glass
Thesis
Weidmann, G. (1973). Slow crack propagation in glass

Slow crack propagation in glass is examined in a variety of environments using the double-torsion technique. The results are interpreted in terms of a limited plasticity fracture criterion and the time dependence of the yield stress.

Student attitudes towards basic features of a college of education course
Thesis
Wright, C. (1973). Student attitudes towards basic features of a college of education course

The overall objective of this research was to find out if there were student attitudes relevant to teaching, which were important to success in the training course as measured by final results, and which changed as the course progressed. The central... Read More about Student attitudes towards basic features of a college of education course.

The petrogenesis of the St. Malo migmatite belt, North-Eastern Brittany, France
Thesis
Brown, M. (1974). The petrogenesis of the St. Malo migmatite belt, North-Eastern Brittany, France

The St. Malo migmatite belt is located along the north Brittany coast between the towns of N. D. du Guildo (Cotes-du-Nord) and Cancale (Ille-et-Vilaine). The belt, which has a north-east trend and structural grain, has been assigned to the Hercynian... Read More about The petrogenesis of the St. Malo migmatite belt, North-Eastern Brittany, France.

Intramolecular nitrene insertions into aromatic systems
Thesis
Carde, R. N. (1974). Intramolecular nitrene insertions into aromatic systems

A study of the intramolecular insertion reactions of aryl nitrenes is described. In Part I the preparation and photolytic decomposition of a number of aryl azides in diethylamine is described. The usual products were 3H-azepines but in one case ring... Read More about Intramolecular nitrene insertions into aromatic systems.

Thesis
Crozier, W. (1974). The interaction of value and subjective probability in decision making under risk

In a class of decision making situations known as risky situations subjects are presented with information concerning payoffs which are dependent on the occurrence of some events and the likelihood of achieving these payoffs, and are asked to make de...

Set-valued functions and selectors
Thesis
Leese, S. J. (1974). Set-valued functions and selectors

Let S and X be any two sets; then a mapping T which assigns to each point t in S a set T(t) of points in X is called a multifunction (or set-valued function) from S into X. A selector for T is a function f from S into X such that f(t) belongs to the... Read More about Set-valued functions and selectors.
