William Howland Robertson papers, MSS.1200
No full textAbstract: Memoir, correspondence, and other miscellaneous papers of this seaman, merchant and diplomat from Alabama.Scope and Content Note: The William Howland Robertson Collection contains a memoir written by Robertson recounting his experiences as a seaman, merchant, and trader based in New Orleans, Louisiana, and Mobile, Alabama, and later, as the United States Consul to Bremen, Germany, appointed by President Polk. Additionally, the collection contains numerous letters written to Robertson from A. Dudley Mann, his predecessor as United States Consul to Bremen. The collection also contains letters written by Robinson to his two sons, Touro and Charles, as well as to their tutor, Mrs. Samuel Porter. Also included are Robertson's will; newspaper clippings; a patent held by Robertson for a mattress; photographs of Robertson and his family; a marriage certificate; a memoir of Eli Whitney written by Denison Olmsted, presented to Robertson's son Touro; miscellaneous letters (including letters of introduction to persons in Europe); passports; and other miscellaneous papers; photocopies of correspondence between William P. Fidler, University of Alabama, and Miss Jessie Robertson (William Howland Robertson's granddaughter), and summaries of the memoir and letters prepared by Fidler.The collection should be of interest to researchers on the capture of Pensacola, Nicholas Biddle and the United States Bank in Philadelphia, the 1848 Revolutions in France, Germany, and Italy, cotton gun-wadding, and the substitution of Indian corn for failed potato crops in Europe and Ireland.Biographical/Historical Note: William Howland Robertson was born in Connecticut in 1789. As a young teen he worked on cargo ships and later took charge of his own ship, earning large profits. He worked as a trader in Mobile, Alabama, and in New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1845 he was appointed as the United States Consul to Bremen, Germany. The appointment took up little of his time and he spent much of his time in Europe in Paris. Between 1854 and 1856 he established a factory to produce cotton gun-wadding. Robertson had obtained a patent for this process prior to leaving the United States. While in Europe, Robertson travelled widely, demonstrating the benefits of using Indian corn as a replacement for the failed potato crops that had left Europe and Ireland in famine. Robertson passed away on May 28, 1859 in Havana, Cuba. Information gathered from Robertson's memoir.A. Dudley Mann was born in 1801 and was the first United States Assistant Secretary of State and a Commissioner for the Confederate States. After a long tenure as a government official in the United States, Mann retired to France, where he passed away in 1889

Evaluation of integrals of Howland type involving a Bessel function
No full textThis paper presents a method of evaluation of four integrals of Howland type, which involve a Bessel function in the integrands. With the aid of tabulated values, they are evaluated to 10D. Two of the four Howland integrals needed in the evaluation are evaluated anew to 20D in order to provide adequate accuracy.</p
A new method of evaluation of Howland integrals
No full textIn this paper, two Howland integrals are evaluated to 25D when the index is an odd integer. Those Howland integrals when the index is an even integer have been evaluated to 18D by Nelson. A new method of evaluation is used.</p
High-power CMOS current driver with accurate transconductance for electrical impedance tomography
No full textCurrent drivers are fundamental circuits in bioimpedance measurements including electrical impedance tomography (EIT). In the case of EIT, the current driver is required to have a large output impedance to guarantee high current accuracy over a wide range of load impedance values. This paper presents an integrated current driver which meets these requirements and is capable of delivering large sinusoidal currents to the load. The current driver employs a differential architecture and negative feedback, the latter allowing the output current to be accurately set by the ratio of the input voltage to a resistor value. The circuit was fabricated in a 0.6- μm high-voltage CMOS process technology and its core occupies a silicon area of 0.64 mm (2) . It operates from a ± 9 V power supply and can deliver output currents up to 5 mA p-p. The accuracy of the maximum output current is within 0.41% up to 500 kHz, reducing to 0.47% at 1 MHz with a total harmonic distortion of 0.69%. The output impedance is 665 k Ω at 100 kHz and 372 k Ω at 500 kHz
