Computer Graphics Course Designed For UMR'Alumni , UMR Alumni, a few industrial managers and one regular student took part in a course in computer graphics held Aug. 11-13 on campus. The course is one of a series developed from credit courses in computer graphics which U M R is now offering its students as part of the regular curriculm .

Drafting, mechanical drawing, engineering drawing, engineering graphics--no matter what it has been called over the years, the visual presentation of technical information has always been a basic part of engineering education. Graphics _ courses are required of almost all engineering students.

Within the past dozen years, this field has taken a giant leap forward. Now, to aid design and manufacturing technology, almost all graphics can be produced accurately and quickly by means of computers. Interactive computer graphics is one of the major areas in which U.S. industry is beinning to invest its modernization dollars, Within the past two years, UMR has established a long-range program ¡to make intergrated computer-aided design and computer-aided technology a part of the curriculum. More than a million dollars has been spent for the computer graphics system. This effort has been made to place UMR in a leadership role in the field of ¡educational computer graphics and is in keeping with UMR's tradition of providing the mosf modern technical education possible.

Also in keeping with tradition, UMR is offering this new educational technology--through a series of continuing educat ion short courses--to alumni and any others who will find the information useful in their work_ The particular course offered this summer was a general introduction to the field. Other courses to be offered throughout the coming months will be designed to cover specifics.

Those attending the course were industrial managers and executives with responsibility for selection, acquisition and implementation of computer graphics facilities and programs, and engineers, scientist and other specialists responsible for technical progress in production design and manufacturing.

The course provided a definition of computer graphics, a familiarity with a wide variety of computer graphics applications, an opportunity to learn about current graphics hardware and software, and an opportunity to use the computer

graphics terminal to discover its useful applications.

Some of the uses include: automa ted drafting design and anal ysis; finit e element. and matrix methods; solutions to operations research problems which arise in production: the display and managemen't of a wide variety of business and research data; presentation of chemical and chemical engineering concepts; animation graphics and simulation; and an introduction to computer-aided manufacturing.

Approximately 30 participants were enrolled in this first general short course.

The course will be offered again as interest in obtaining this kind of information grows. Meanwhile, UMR will provide a series of 15 short courses (some scheduled for specific industries in St. Louis and other areas) during the next few months to present more advanced information .

Alumni participants attending the summer course included: David Alspaugh, '72, U,S. Defense Mapping Agency, St. Louis; Kim Arthur, '79, Missouri Public Service Commission, Jefferson City; Robert F. Auld, '57, Xerox Corp_, Dallas, Texas; Michael Bytnar, '68, Nooter Corp. , St. Louis; Larry Denio, '74, A.P. Green Refractories.

In addition to the new play ing field and stand . plans call for a soccer scoreboard to be in operation by open· ing ga me .

The new Miner Soccer Field is loca ted directly south of U.MR·s New Jackling Field.

Finley is also blessed with a young group of linebackers, led by junior Todd Fizer, who will try to fill in quickly for graduated all-conference leader Morris Hervey. The defensive backs will rally around Randy Hauser, who is the dean of the unit with three varsity starts.

"We lost a great group from the secondary last season," Finley said . "Bill Grantham was Kodak All-American , set the league record for career interceptions, and Hal Tharp was also first-team MIAA. Craig Heath and Steve Teter did exce llent jobs a~ did back·ups Steve DelaRoche and Roddy Rogers."

Other Miner veterans returning on defense will be guard Bob Pressly, noseguard Cleo Downs and defensive ends Paul Suellentrop and Paul Demzik.

On ' offense, the Miners have to replenish the line, as well as fill one backfield spot.

But overall, the picture is bright.

"We should have a great backfield," Finley said. "We have moved Chris Nisbet to defense, so Don Kasperski and Dennis Pirkle should fight it out for the starting quarterback spot. We have Brian Paris, David Fischer, Oscar Berryman and Randy Shed carrying the ball, and they will do as fine as job as anyone in the league."

Parris and Berryman missed a good deal of the Miner season in 1980 due to injuries, although Paris still found enough playing time to lead the Miners in touchdowns by the rush.

"The quarterbacks will have targets like Scott Stephens a nd Terry McDonald to throw to, as well as Kurt

Lorenzen--out for the first time this year," Finley noted. Lorenzen, a two 'year member of the UMR basketball team, was a star player in high school, but has never played college football until now.

The kicking game will be in the hands of Craig Thomas, with puting duty shared by Scott Teter, Suellentrop and transfer player Bruce Bohfmann, "If we can playas a unit quickly, I think the Miners will be right in the thick of the MIAA race again," Finley concluded. "Even though-we had the great year in 1980, I think we can improve on overall consistency.

"We were lucky a couple of times last season, and you can't let up at all. I think there are a lot of teams in the MIAA that can beat you on any given day, and we will have to always be ready."

Football After posting a perfect 10-0 record in 1980, many people have asked UMR Head Coach Charlie Finley what he's going to have his team do for an encore in 1981.

'That will be difficult to top," laughed last year's MlAA Coach-of-the-Year.

"We just hope the current 13-game winning streak has built up some momentum that we can keep going."

UMR opens the season Sept. 5 playing William Penn College at Oskaloosa, la.

Finley starts his 10th season as Miner head coach, boasting a 48-41-8 record.

In addition to his MlAA honors, the veteran coach was also named District VI Coach-of-the-Year and was a finalist for National Coach-of-the-Year.

The Miners returned 32 lettermen from last year's talented squad, but lose 16 seniors from that team.

"That will be one of the biggest items that affects the ~quad." Finlq noted.

"We will miss that senior leadership.

•

1981

That was a big reason the UMR squad was undefeated a year ago."

Gone are talented performers like Jim Lee, Paul Janke, Bob Sonntag, Bill Grantham, Hal Tharp, Craig Heath, Steve Teter, Steve DelaRoche, Roddy Rogers, Morris Hervey, Kelly Rudolph, Buck Durham, Matt Stone, Steve Bridgman, Jeff Walters and Don Holman.

There is, however, plenty of talent in the wings.

"I feel we should have a good nucleus on defense again this season," Fin ley said. The 1980 Miners led the NCAA Division II in rushing defense at 34.6 yards per game, while finishing third overall in total defense at 201.4 yards per game. They finished 10th in the nation in the final NCAA rankings.

"I guess if we had anyone weakness on defense it would be depth ," Finley stressed. "We can put together a pretty good front line and backfield, but we wouldn't be able to take many injuries. "

Research Grants Awarded •••

. Schearer Wins Top Prize

Dr. Laird Schearer. a Rolla campus physics professor whose lifetime work has centered on understand ing the properties of electrical discha rges in gaseous media. has received the Uni versity of Missouri's second annua l $10.000 Presiden· tial Resea rch Award to support his con tinu ing research.

UM President James C. Olson made the award May 20 after a rev iew com mit· tee. composed of facu lt y from the four UM ca mpuses. unanimously recommended Dr. Schearer for the award.

The president also anno unced that an add itional $96 1.992 will be used to fund research projects throughout the fou r-campus system.

These projects and the presidential award are supported by in vestment income on proceeds from the 1979 sa le of the University's Weldon Spring property. In· vestment income is being used to support scholarly. artistic and creative instruction·related activities of UM faculty .

This year the Columbia campus will receive $253.578. UM-Kansas City $202,24 1, UM-Rolla $188,671 and UM-St. Louis $204.952 .

Five other multi-campus research proposals also were funded.

Dr. Schearer joined the UMR faculty in 1971 after a distinguished career as an industrial scientist with Texas Instruments, Inc. He joined the corporation's research laboratories in 1959, when Texas Instruments was just beginning to emerge as a world leader in solid state physics.

At Texas Instruments, Schearer started work that he continues today--a detailed study of the quantum mechanical properties of helium atoms and their in- . teractions with other atomic and molecular systems.

Research Grants Continued Three chemists. Fred Ross of the UM Research Reactor. Elmer Schlemper of UMC. and Gary Long of UMR. received $10.000 in another intercampus award for a basic rese.arch project attempting a new method of obtaining and analyzing quantitative information about the relationship of electron density distribution in a chemical bond to the molecular structure. physical properties and chemical reactivity of a material. The new method uses a combination of x·ray. neutron and gamma·ray diffraction data obtained by the three chemists. The grant sup· ports a direct research interaction between the three in applying a new approach to the modeling of the bonding in transition metal complexes. an interaction that will extend their respective research programs.

UMR's Warner Co-authors Book "Subsurface Wastewater Injection."a reference work written by Dr. Don L. Warner of the University of Missouri·Rolla and Jay Lehr, was published recently be Premier Press of Berkeley. Calif.

The 344 page book originally was prepared as a contract report to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency from the National Well Water Association. It is intended to serve as a guide. standard and reference for industries and regulatory agencies concerned with wastewater systems.

The book describes the design. construction. operation and abandonment of subsurface wastewater injection systems. Local geologic and hydrologic characteristics of the injection and confining intervals are considered along with the physical. chemical and biological compatibility of the receiving zone with the ~

wastewater to be injected.

Design and construction aspects of injection wells are presented along with recommended preinjection testing, operating procedures and emergency precau· tions. Monitoring requirements, records maintenance and proper well abandon· ment procedures also are discussed.

Warner is the dean of the School of Mines and Metallurgy at UMR. Lehr is executive director of the National Well Water Association.

Karen Lane, Reactor Secretary, Earns NRC License

n·

o

When Karen Lane decided a few years ago that she wanted to be a nuclear reactor operator, she knew she was accepting a challenge.

She recently earned her license from the Nuciear Regulatory Commission (NRc)' Lane. UMR Nuclear Reactor secretary. knew attaining her goal would not be easy.

"I wanted to be a reactor operator. but with no formal training in the area, I knew it was a real challenge," she said.

Lane says her main motivator was UMR reactor manager Alva Elliott. who started her in the training and stood by her through the past three and one· half years of classes. sessions and preparations.

"Alva approached me and asked if I wanted to give it a shot." Lane reca lls.

"He never side·stepped the prospects, saying it would be one of the most difficult things I ever tackled."

But Elliott said he was willing to teach if Lane were willing to learn, and the process was set into motion .

The next few years consisted of carrying a course load at UMR, attending class training sessions and studying constantly on her own. This was in addition to being a wife and mother at home and handling her normal secretarial duties at the Nuclear Reactor.

After surviving the work load. Lane felt she was ready early this year to take the Nuclear Regulatory Commission test. Members of the commission recently came to campus from Washington, D.C.. and put her through a six-hour written exam and a three and one-half hour oral exam.

"It included a complete walk-through of the facility. with questions every step of the way to make certain I knew every small detail of the reactor." she said.

Lane passed and received her license.

"If you want anything badly enough, it is there if you are willing to work for it." Lane said in retrospect. 'Tm still taking courses. so in many ways I've only just begun."

"What I now know is unbelievable," she concluded. "Like I told my husband. it was as if I had advanced from kindergarten to the 12th grade--in three years."
