Gilmore Simms, Before the Charleston County Agricultural and Horticultural Association (Now the Agricultural Society of South Carolina) May 3, 1870 by William Gilmore Simms (1806-1870).

Preliminary isotope heater locations and masking pattern Passive Seismic Experiment Package Central Station
No full textA series of parametric thermal studies have been carried out to determine the optimum locations for the two heaters and the optimum masking pattern.prepared by R. J. Simms
Final isotope heater locations and masking pattern -- Passive Seismic Experiment Package Central Station
No full textThe parametric studies have been completed. Since the thermal characteristics of the three configurations were so similar, the selection was primarily based upon mechanical considerations. A unique rectangular masking pattern has been found which, within the assumptions discussed, satisfy the specified thermal plate average temperature limits, of -65 F to +140 F.prepared by R. J. Simms

The atonal music of Arnold Schoenberg 1908 - 1923
No full text"Between 1908 and 1923, Arnold Schoenberg began writing music that went against many of the accepted concepts and practices of the art. Largely following his intuition, he composed some of the masterpieces of the modern repertoire - including Pierrot lunaire and Erwartung - works that have since provoked a large, though fragmented, body of critical and analytical writing." "Here, Bryan Simms combines a historical study with a close analytical reading of the music to give us a new and richer understanding of Schoenberg's seminal work during this period. Simms begins with Schoenberg's evolution toward atonality during the decade before 1908 and concludes with his eventual transition to twelve-tone composing. In between, Simms provides expert commentary on all of Schoenberg's major atonal pieces, covering for each the history of its composition, Schoenberg's own conception of the piece, an analysis of its form, and the relationships between the piece and his other work."--BOOK JACKET

Traces of Fremont: Society and Rock Art in Ancient Utah
No full textFremont is a culture (ca. 300-1300 A.D.) first defined by archaeologist Noel Morss in 1928 based on characteristics unique to the area. Intially thought to be a simple socio-political system, recent reassessments of the Fremont assume a more complex society. This volume places Fremont rock art studies in this contemporary context. Author Steven Simms offers an innovative model of Fremont society, politics, and world-view using the principles of analogy and current archaeological evidence.https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/usufaculty_monographs/1023/thumbnail.jp
