Mathematical Theory of the Lethal Action of Radiation on Yeast Cells (open access)

Mathematical Theory of the Lethal Action of Radiation on Yeast Cells

The main part of this thesis is devoted to the derivation and study of formulas for the probability of survival of the haploid and diploid yeast cell, based on models proposed by Zirkle and Tobias. Some properties of so-called completely monotonic functions are developed, and the results are applied to the investigation of some of the more complicated formulas. Finally the theoretical expressions are compared with the experimental data obtained by Tobias.

Corrosion of Type 202 Stainless Steel in High Temperature Water (open access)

Corrosion of Type 202 Stainless Steel in High Temperature Water

The chromium-nickel-manganese alloys are a group of austenitic stainless steels which were developed during the Korean War to conserve nickel. These alloys are very similar to their corresponding 300 Series grades in mechanical, physical and corrosion properties. A portion of the nickel in the 300 Series grades has been replaced by approximately 2% manganese for each percent of nickel replaced. Two compositions, AISI 201 and AISI 202, are recognized as standard grades. Two other compositions, AISI 204 and AISI 204-L, have been produced in limited quantities to replace AISI 304 and AISI 304-L. Experience with the 200 Series steels indication they are every bit as good as the grades for which they were once alternates. In some shapes, such as rod and sheet, the cost per pound is considerably lower than the corresponding 300 Series grades.
