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

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

An examination of literary nationalism in the letters and selected criticism of William Gilmore Simms
No full textIn the first half of the nineteenth century, the newly formed United States experienced a surge of nationalism in literature, as well as in politics. Some writers, including William Gilmore Simms, spoke out for "mental independence" from Great Britain, and for a development of a truly American literature. Moreover, Simms Joined the Young Americans In asserting that an International Copyright Law was necessary to a national literature. Soon, however, Simms defined his idea of a national literature as being that made up of various sectional literatures. He insisted that the Southern periodicals, in which he encouraged the cultural development of the South, were truly national when they were truly Southern, Simms's attitude toward national literature underwent a subtle and gradual change as the political conflict between the North and South grew more turbulent. He continued to speak for a Southern literature, but he became more narrowly sectional, and he rarely connected his campaign for a Southern literature to the need for a national one. After the Civil War, Simms added little to his national ideas, but he continued his periodical endeavors to gain recognition for Southern literature. And he collected Southern war poetry, saying it belonged not Just to the South, but to the nation.English, Department o

Acquisition Costs and Nutritional Data on Great Basin Resources
No full textAs part of an earlier study (Simms 1984), data on the costs and benefits of obtaining native food resources in the Great Basin were generated for use in foraging models developed from evolutionary ecology. Portions of these data are presented here for the benefit of researchers interested in the acquisition costs and nutrition of wild foods
