The present status of polonium tolerance estimation. Biology seminar, February 1, 1949

Despite the fact the adequate data from long-term, chronic experiments on the effects of Po{sup 210} are not available, some sort of a working figure for the maximum permissible body content of polonium is desirable. As described herein, calculations involved in determining the permissible body content of polonium generally fall into three classes. 1. Comparison of X-ray and polonium toxicity and application of an acceptable X-ray tolerance figure. 2. Assumption of a most sensitive organ and computation of the critical concentration of radioactive material present in this organ under conditions such that the organ received an assumed maximum permissible exposure over an indefinitely long period of time. 3. Comparison of radium and polonium toxicity with application of an acceptable maximal content of radium.

A Microdetermination of Uranium by Ferric Sulfate Titration (open access)

A Microdetermination of Uranium by Ferric Sulfate Titration

Abstract: "Following nitrate removal by means of a three-stage hydrochloric acid digestion, uranium was reduced with chromous sulfate reagent. In an inert atmosphere, the quadrivalent uranium was titrated at 80-95[degrees] with standard ferric sulfate solution. The end point was obtained with a potentiometric cell including a platinum in-titrant reference electrode and a platinum indicator electrode. Application was made to various low leverl uranium solutions. For samples containing 1 - 12 milligrams or uranium, less than one percent error may be expected. Iron and chromium do not interfere."

Determination of rate, area, and distribution of impingement of water drops on various airfoils from trajectories obtained on the differential analyzer (open access)

Determination of rate, area, and distribution of impingement of water drops on various airfoils from trajectories obtained on the differential analyzer

From Summary: "The trajectories of waterdrops in air flowing over airfoils are determined for three airfoil-angle-of-attack combinations using the differential analyzer to solve the differential equations of motion of the waterdrops. From these trajectories the rate of water impingement, the area of impingement, and the distribution of impingement are determined as functions of two dimensionless moduli. Comparisons are made of the rate of water impingement on these airfoils and the rate of water impingement on cylinders."

Flight Investigation of Flutter Models With 1/10-Scale Douglas D-558-2 Wing Panels (open access)

Flight Investigation of Flutter Models With 1/10-Scale Douglas D-558-2 Wing Panels

Report presenting testing of three rocket-powered models with Douglas D-558-2 wings as horizontal fins with scaled structural parameters to determine whether the possibility of wing flutter due to torsion and bending exists in full-scale airplanes at transonic speeds. No wing flutter was present in the models tested, but pitching oscillation developed as it passed into the transonic range.
