Carryover parts and new product reliability
… from a motor vehicle manufacturer, we find that carryover parts, common parts used in successive generations of multi-generational products, are a major source of quality problems, contrary to conventional wisdom. Moreover, the failure rate of carryover parts grows from one generation to the …

Pre- to post-fledging carryover effects and the post-fledging ecology of the Dickcissel (Spiza americana)
… with emphasis on pre- to post-fledging carryover effects of nestling traits and fledgling habitat use. Specifically, I sought to address the following questions: (1) Do body condition and wing development at fledging predict juvenile survival during the post-fledging period? (2) What is …

Aspects of Spanish Prosody and Their Carryover Into English: A Case Study of A Three Year Old
Some aspects of Spanish prosody were examined and the way a Spanish-speaking three-year-old, Camila, carried them into English, while she was in the process of learning English as a second language, was studied. Camila was video- and audiotaped two times each week over a six month period in a wide …

Age-specific mortality, pre- to post-fledging carryover effects, and the timing of fledging in altricial songbirds
… to (1) test for potential pre- to post-fledging carryover effects under a morphology-performance-fitness paradigm; (2) evaluate nesting and post-fledging survival rates to provide a greater understanding as to when and why juvenile songbirds leave the nest; and (3) determine if carryover effects …

Herbicide Carryover to Cover Crops and Evaluation of Cover Crops for Annual Weed Control in Corn and Soybeans
… biomass to compete with weeds. Herbicide carryover has the potential to reduce cover crop establishment. A study was conducted to evaluate the potential for 30 different residual herbicides applied in the cash crop growing season to carryover to 10 different cover crops. While visible …

Investigation of liquid carryover in the girdler-sulfide process for production of heavy water at the AEC Savannah River Plant
"An investigation of the causes of liquid carryover in the Girdler-Sulfide process for the production of heavy water was carried out using 12 samples of carbon collected over a one-year time period. Organic impurities from the feedwater were concentrated by adsorption on carbon. Studies of methods …

Value of Cover Crops in Suppressing Weeds and Protecting Cotton Yields and Likelihood of Residual Herbicide Carryover to Cover Crops
… options evaluated. Based on a herbicide carryover trial from corn, residual herbicides commonly applied in corn that will be rotated to a cover crop and eventually cotton have low risk to interfere with the cover crop establishment and development after corn harvest.</p>

Economic Origins of the Cold War? An Examination of the Carryover Costs of World War Ii to the Soviet People
… the postwar period. This study identifies the carryover costs of WW II to the Soviets and examines how the burden of these costs was allocated. It further proposes a means of examining how the actual allocation of the carryover war costs might have changed had different economic policies been …

Decomposition of grasses in a South African savanna
… is on the soil, even though the importance of carryover from standing litter is recognized. Standing litter results in high carryover which slows down decomposition thereby hindering productivity in the next growing season. I therefore decided to investigate the processes of photodegradation …

Effects of ultraviolet-B radiation on plant growth, symbiotic function and concentration of metabolites in legumes and an assessment of F1 generation for carryover effects
Reduction in ozone layer thickness in the stratosphere and the resultant increase in ground level of biologically active ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation prompted research into the effect of UV-B on growth and metabolism of terrestrial plants. In this study, eight legume species including three …

Question-order effects in market research: An information processing approach
… in making a brand evaluation, resulting in carryover effects. The impact of earlier attribute questions on overall brand evaluations is more complex for moderate and high knowledge respondents, who showed both carryover and backfire effects. The results of Experiment 1 suggest that moderate …

A study of bioaerosol sampling cyclones
… for a condition where there was no liquid carryover through the cyclone outlet and 8 minutes on average with hydrosol carryover. The decay response of the White-type cyclone was 1.25 minutes for non-liquid carryover conditions. The AAC had an initial response of 2.75 minutes and a decay …

Effects of Two-Phase Flow in a Multistage Centrifugal Compressor
… To understand the effects of increasing liquid carryover, the mass flow rate of the liquid phase was increased from 1% to 5% of the vapor mass flow rate. The influence of droplet size on the compressor performance was assessed by varying the droplet diameter at the inlet from 100 microns to 400 …

Phenotypic Plasticity in Economically and Ecologically Important Bivalves in Response to Changing Environments
… degrees of phenotypic plasticity and parental carryover will have the potential to improve bivalve’s fitness and tolerance as climate change progresses. My goal is to evaluate plastic capacity by taking a multi-method approach to assessing the physiological metrics of several important bivalve …
