Mission Support proposes to develop a compact, self-contained neutron spectrometer for MeV neutrons that will be suitable for the detection of the nitrogen, oxygen and carbon components in explosive materials. Neutron-resonance-radiographic techniques will be employed to detect the presence of these materials through their distinctive total-neutron-cross-section resonances. The detector insures ...

THE PROGRAM WILL USE DRUG AND ALCOLHOLABUSE PREVENTION STRATEGIES APPROPRIATE FOR WORKING ADULTS, CAST IN A HEALTH PROMOTION FRAMEWORK. PHASE I ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: (1) DEVELOPING A MODEL OF HEALTH PROMOTION/HEALTH BEHAVIOR RESEARCH LITERATURE, THE INTERVIEWS WITH H ...

UTAH CONTAINS SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES OF TAR SANDS WHICH, IF DEVELOPED, COULD BECOME AN IMPORTANT COMPONENT OF THE NATION'S REQUIREMENTS FOR PETROLEUM PRODUCTS. THE ECONOMICSFOR PRODUCTION OF SYNCRUDE FROM UTAH TAR SANDS HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN JUST BEYOND THE RANGE OF PROFITABILITY. PRODUCTION OF ASPHALT, HOWEVER, APPEARS TO BE PROFITABLE TODAY. CAPITAL AND OPERATING COSTS FOR PRODUCTION OF ASPHALT ...

It is difficult to remove oil and AFFF from voluminous streams. Research has been continously carried out to develop new technologies to be employed in this field of application with little success. Air-sparged hydrocyclone (ASH) flotation technology is a new technology developed by the University of Utah and Advanced Processing Technologies, Inc. It combines the advantages from both conventional ...

NEW SAGE WILL DEVELOP SOFTWARE THAT CAN TEACH BEGINNING ARABIC (AND PERSIAN) SKILLS. THE SYSTEM WILL BE A RESPONSIVE, STUDENT-DRIVEN, INTERACTIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT USING MACINTOSH COMPUTERS. KEY TO THE DESIGN IS THE INTEGRATION OF SEVERAL KNOWLEDGE BASES INTO THE INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN: 1) A RICH (BUT NOT LARGE) DICTIONARY -- FOR KNOWLEDGE OF WORD MEANINGS, 2) LINGUISTIC RULES -- FOR GENERATION A ...
