An analysis of the airspeeds and normal accelerations of Boeing B-247 and B-247D airplanes in commercial transport operation
From Introduction: "The results of analyses of V-G data given in references 1 to 5 have shown that the flight loads of airplanes operated in commercial transport service are influenced by operating speeds and by forecasting and dispatching practices as reflected in differences between operations during the prewar and wartime periods. The available data are summarized and the flight results are compared with the results of analyses made in references 1 to 5."

Friction Coefficients in the Inlet Length of Smooth Round Tubes
Note presenting an experimental study of friction coefficients near the inlet of smooth, round tubes with bellmouth entrances. Four different combinations of approach section and bellmouth entry were used. Results regarding the apparent local friction coefficient, integrated friction coefficient, effect of induced turbulence, laminar inlet zone, developed friction coefficient, and application to discharge coefficients for rounded-entrance flow nozzles are provided.

Effect of Variables in Welding Technique on the Strength of Direct-Current Metal-Arc-Welded Joints in Aircraft Steel 2 - Repeated-Stress Tests of Joints in SAE 4130 Seamless Steel Tubing
"A series of tests were made for the purposes of establishing the effects of several variables in welding technique on the fatigue strength of arc-welded joints in SAE 4130 seamless steel tubing. The variables included type of electrode, speed of welding, current, position, amount of preheat, and other factors which in turn controlled the weld contour, penetration, and depth of the heat-affected zone. A range of joint design was also investigated" (p. 1).

Mollusca From the Miocene and Lower Pliocene of Virginia and North Carolina: Part 2. Scaphopoda and Gastropoda
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 importance of the exact placing of the fossil locality both areally and vertically was recognized. Many of the citations of outcrops are vague and the sections generalized. Detailed field studies, particularly on the zoning of the Yorktown formation in southern Virginia and northern North Carolina, were begun later by Wendell P. Mansfield, but he died in the summer of 1939 before the completion of the work.

Tabulation or Ore Reserves and Past Production for the Uranium-Vanadium Region of Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona
The tabulations on these pages include all of the known areas in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona having economically important uranium-vanadium deposits of the type which are generally referred to by the terms roscoe-lite and/or carnotite. Though similar deposits are known to exist in other areas they are to be viewed as being little more than mineralogical curiosities.
