Progress Report on Dynamics of Particulate Matter in Fluid Suspensions

Abstract

This report describes work performed during the period from August 1, 1949 to November, 1950. When the project was started, it was financed for one year with the intention of continuing it for a second year, and the program was planned accordingly. However, after about three months of operation, it became necessary for reasons of economy to reconsider the original plans, with the result that the funds for the first year's operation were reduced and plans for continuing the work beyond the first year were dropped. In the early summer of 1950, the U. S. Air Force indicated its interest in sponsoring the work. In view of this prospect, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) allotted funds for an additional three-months' period to allow time for working out the necessary contractual arrangements with the Air Force for continuing the work. These arrangements were worked out and the studies were continued under contract with the Office of Air Research, starting November 1, 1950.
