Udder Diseases of Dairy Cows

Description: "A cow that is healthy in every other respect, but has a diseased or nonproducing udder, is worthless in a dairy herd. The prevention and treatment of the diseases which bring about this condition are discussed in this bulletin. The limitations of a bulletin of this kind preclude anything more than a brief discussion of each disease and a suggested line of simple treatment adapted to the means and condition of the average dairyman." -- p. ii. Diseases discussed include inflammatory diseases, ab… more

The vertical, longitudinal, and lateral accelerations experienced by an S. E. 5a airplane while maneuvering

Description: "This investigation was carried out by the Langley Field Laboratory of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics for the purpose of measuring the accelerations along the three principal axes of an airplane while it was maneuvering. The airplane selected for this purpose was the fairly maneuverable SE-5A and the instruments used were the NACA three component accelerometer and the NACA recording airspeed meter. The results showed that the normal accelerations did not exceed 4.000 G. While t… more

Wind Tunnel Tests of Correction Formula for Wings of Large Span

Description: The theory (wing experiments in an artificial air stream are subject to error, due to the fact that the wing is not situated in an unlimited body of air) by means of which the given drag correction was obtained, was based on various assumptions (e.g., elliptical distribution of lift) which do not always hold true. For this reason it was desirable to test the equation for the additional drag in regard to its reliability and range of application.
