RESEARCH
AND CREATIVE ACTIVITIES
Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville
\\'EI,COME FROM THE PRESIDENT outhern Illinois University at Edwardsville is acutely aware of national imperatives concerning productivity and technological strength. Situated on a lovely campus comprising 2,600 acres of rolling hills, our University might appear to be insulated from all outside reality. That has never been the case; it is even less so today; we want to reach out even
further in the future. As we confirm our maturity as an institution, I welcome this opportunity to reaffirm our long-standing commitment to research-particularly of the sort that fosters the prosperity, health, and humane vitality of the region we were
founded to serve nearly a quarter of a century ago.
SIUE was created to fill a vacuum in terms of publicly supported higher education on the east side of the Mississippi River. Central to our growth was the opening of lines of communication with those citizens who had a large stake in economic, political, social and cultural decisionmaking. With this brochure, we seek to strengthen existing bonds and develop new ones with those institutional forces interested in the growth of the region-especially business and industry. Before corporate development dollars are committed on an in-house basis, we welcome your exploration of assets already in place and at your disposal.
We want to insure that our resources in terms of faculty expertise, laboratory facilities, library holdings, and data hardware are utilized to their fullest potential. Indeed, a crucial element in our own evolution depended on insights gained from examining our region's problems and
aspirations in earlier research ventures. Research has helped to get us u'here we are today; only by strengthening our research muscles will we be able to shape the future in a positive way.
It's worth your time to examine the inventory of assets in this brochure. We stand ready to develop mutually beneficial sharing arrangements. In addition to basic and applied research we have faculty to provide symposia, conferences, long or short-term
courses off campus. or consultative services. Immediatell' available are men and women conversant g'ith such
matters as energy economics: marketing strategies; management anall'sis; and insights into international affairs in places such as the Middle East, China, Japan, Eastern Europe and Latin America.
Our faculty has always been strongly motivated toward research initiatives designed to serve the region. This brochure will have value if it does no more than reinforce these traditional impulses. Of course, we hope for much more. Through cooperative research ventures, individual businesses and industries, the University, and the region as a whole can grow together. We welcome your inquiries and ideas; they can be directed to our Office of Research and Projects in the Graduate School. This office is our clearing house for investments in theoretical and experimental research.
If the dividends to be realized are carefully considered, I know you will acknowledge the wisdom of engaging with us in mutually promising joint ventures.
Earl Lazerson, President Southern lllinois University at Edwardsville
I\TRODUCTION esearch at Southern
lllinois
University at Edwardsville. Young, develoPing regional universities, with Pre-
dominately urban clientele, often attract creative faculty who possess a strong desire to be involved in defining problems and posing alternative solutions for a technological society' Southern lllinois UniversitY at Edwardsville is such a university. Located within the Standard
Metropolitan Statistical Area of St. Louis, Southern lllinois University at Edwardsville has a research-oriented graduate faculty of 487 and a graduate student enrollment of 2,400. FortY percent of the graduate facultY is engaged in research and scholarlY writings, and their efforts are
supported by the Graduate School's Office of Research and Projects. Last year (1979-80), SIUE conducted over $7 million worth of externally funded training and research on such problems as energy, transportation, pollution control, labor-management
relations, productivitY declines, marketing strategies, health, and other areas in which industry shares a major interest. However, only a very small portion of that total research represented cooperative efforts with industry. The Need for Cooperative IndustryUniversity Research. Growth in the conduct of basic industrial research at SIUE depends on a closer interaction between academic researchers and business personnel' In contrast to many research problems in industry,
where exploration of alternatives to
immediate problems necessitates a short turn-around time, more basic, longer-term research could occur if, on the one hand, faculty researchers were aware of industry's research needs and, on the other hand, industrial personnel were aware of facultY research expertise. Such shared
knowledge could lead to ongoing types of cooperative research. Additionally, the university researcher, pursuing his
own field of inquiry, would be alert to implications that relate to the known needs of business' What other reasons are there for fostering industry-university research collaboration? Increasing national
concern over the erosion of U.S. leadership in science and technology as well as the decline in American productivity have led to reassessment of the respective roles of government, universities, and industry in basic and applied research. The identified need for closer universitY-industrY collaboration has been reflected in public policY that reduces the impediments to such cooPeration. Programs involving industry and the univirsity could take the form of: (l) joint projects; (2) Prime and
iubcontractor relationships, with either the university or industry taking the lead; (3) university Personnel
consulting in industry or industrial scientists serving as advisors/ instructors in the universitY; (4) university and industry personnel exchanges; and (5) instrument and equipment sharing. Benefits to IndustrY and to the University. In addition to the more obvious benefits through long-term contributions toward Product and process innovation and Problem solutions, industrY-universitY cooperative research enhances the
preparation of potential industry
employees, Provides emPloYment enrichment to university and industrial personnel, and helps to improve public
understanding. The opportunity to make better products less expensively is enormous. The possibility also exists to create and support modifications in academic programs that are more in tune with societal needs.
To explore more thoroughlY the possibilities for cooperative research and training Projects between our University and industries within the
region, this brochure identifies some of our facultY researchers and consultants, with specific examples of their research and training capabilities' and presents the university centers established to assist in the cooperative process. Because industry is concerned with humanistic and ethical insights and with aesthetic enhancements that are essential to employee morale and public confidence, references to these relevant University resources also are included.

SIUE is working with IEPA and USPHS in an effort to determine whether atmospheric ozone is liquified with liquid oxygen, and, if so, how such ozone could be detected. If ozone is found in liquid oxygen, attempts will be made to measure it. Preliminary experiments demonstrate that ozone can be retained in liquid oxygen, and that ozone vaporizes last, after the liquid oxygen is gone. The search continues. SIUE has an opportunity to be the lead agency in this important health question.

the digester. Each process is independently viable; however, it is expected that a combination of the two will eliminate some drawbacks inherent in each one, i.e.. the need to burn a fossil fuel in the alcohol plant, the need to burn a portion of the biogas produced to maintain the digester temperature, and the need to consume the biogas at approximately the rate at which it is produced, the latter in order to avoid expensive storage facilities.
This type of system should be most attractive to farms or farm cooperatives that both grow corn and raise livestock on a regular basis. The livestock are necessary to supply the raw material for biogas production and to provide for the on-site usage of the high protein livestock feed byproduct of the alcohol plant. The proposed system is expected to be
environmentally sound.

Characterizing Effects of Power Conditioning. The use of solid state devices such as SCRS, power transistors, power MOSFETS, and power Darlingtons to condition power to electric motors in industry has been on the increase. These power switching devices offer a very efficient and convenient way to interface with electronic control circuitry, including
microprocessors. Their increasing use, however, is introducing harmonics in the power lines and hence is becoming a problem to the power comPanies.
The research that is currently under way is to develop analytical methodology to characterize nonsinusoidal voltages and currents. This research is being conducted with Professor A. Godhwani. Signature Analysis of Electric Motors. The purpose of this project is to establish a reliable, economical and 100-percent-effective testing of electric motors on a production line. The initial part of the study is concerned with the simulation of starting transients using CSMP and testing the sensitivity of the starting transients to machine parameters that are susceptible to production errors.
The second part of this study is to develop data acquisition hardware and software to obtain starting transient characteristics of motors. The third part of this project is concerned with developing pattern recognition methodology, perhaps using FFT to differentiate between "good" and "bad" motors. This research is being conducted with Professors L. C. Jones
and A. Godhwani.
Industrial Energy Storage Economics. Industries with substantial peak power demand can reduce their maximum load through energy storage. Recent improvements in battery technology make it possible to consider energy storage for peak shaving purposes. Industries could derive added benefits from this in terms of reduced kvar size of static capacitors and in terms of a source of uninterruptable power
supply for critical loads. Feasibility and optimization of industrial energy storage will be studied in this research.
Dbtributed Power Systems and Cogeneration. The efficiency of utilization of fuel resource (i.e., overall efficiency of delivered electrical energy) of large, central power generation plants is very low, on the order of 25-30 percent. Small, distributed power plants, however, offer the opportunity to maximize the resource utilization efficiency through cogeneration of electricity and steam. Some of the disadvantages in terms of higher cost per kilowatt and higher
maintenance cost can be overcome by mass production, standardization and
regional maintenance teams. The proposed research will focus on the feasibility and economics of such distributed power plants and the
interfacing of these power plants with large, central power plants. This project is being conducted with Professor H. Bengtson.

Office telephone: (618) 692-2500 Home telephone: (618) 654-3780 Points at each of four sites (including a control site) have been established and are monitored monthly for relative horizontal and vertical position. The points themselves are established below frost line and consist of a six-inch carriage bolt set in9-12 inches of concrete. Standard surveying techniques including trilateration, open and closed traverses and threewire leveling are used. Since three of the sites are in residential areas, the effectiveness of the various horizontal control methods is being evaluated for the unique character of the particular site. Distances are determined using an electronic distance measuring device with repeated traverse angles turned using a 20-second theodolite. Computer programs have been developed for data reduction, and plots of point positions are updated monthly. A procedures manual is being developed for use in establishing
control nets in future subsidence project areas. Daniel M. Cote received his B.S.C.E. degree.from Duke Universit.t' and his M.S.C. E..from North Carolina State Universit.v. His areas o.f research

Digital Controller (Filter) Implementation Using Microprocessors. With the advent of fast, reliable, and low cost microprocessors, digital control of processes is becoming increasingly popular. A processor is generally a
part of even a modestly complex system. Therefore, in real-time
applications, controllers for control of dynamic systems are being implemented digitally. Study of issues involved in digital controller implementation is of current interest in this department.

BROADBAND IMPEDANCE MATCHING INTO DIELECTRIC FILLED WAVEGUIDE William E. Hord Professor and Chairman Engineering and Technology
Office telephone: (618) 692-2500 Home telephone: (314) 921-1473 Impedance matching of transmission lines is well understood for the case in which the line characteristic impedance is known and is independent of frequency. However, the characteristic impedance for waveguides does not have a unique definition; also, broadband (up to an octave bandwidth) matching techniques are not well understood.
An experimental investigation has been conducted at X-band which has produced encouraging results. The investigation considered matching from air-filled waveguide into ferrite-
filled waveguide over the frequency band from 8 GHz to l6 GHz. Computer analysis and further experimental work are necessary.

Office telephone: (618) 692-2504 Home telephone: (314) 432-4961 Various methods are currently in vogue that treat the problem of decision making under uncertainty. Either implicitly or explicitly, many of these methods are at least partially related in the sense that the optimal investment strategy is determined by
taking the expected value of some function of the distribution of returns. Recent work by several authors. including Dr. Aucamp, has shown that these methods may be suspect in the sense that they do not examine long-
Protection Agency obtained permission to clean up the areas by open burning operations. One of the 24 impacted counties was then selected for a case study. The quantity of waste and debris generated during the ice storm in that county was determined. The benefits and costs were calculated
for the period immediately following the disaster and again for a period three months later. Although the analysis was based on the 1978 ice storm, the results were related to other types of disaster that could occur and to existing and proposed regulations governing open burning operations in disaster areas.
run implications and, in fact, can lead to certain long-run disaster. This research project is essentially tuofold: (l) to analyze why the most fundamental work in this overall area (i.e., von Neumann's and Morgenstern's theory of utility expectation) leads to poor long-run performance; and (2) to extend the current state of the art in the analysis ol decision making for the long run. Various disciplines are very much involved with decision theory under uncertainty. Among these are management science, economics, and finance.

An integral part of this research is the development of a database using Database Management System (DBMS) software in support of the socioeconomic balance sheet. The
term "socioeconomic" is used to distinguish between the expanded concept of a public sector balance sheet and a typical balance sheet in a firm, which would only measure material wealth. The database will also
support a computer-based model of the socioeconomic balance sheet. The model will permit users the immediate display of the socioeconomic balance sheet or segments thereof. It can also be used as a forecasting tool to project future balance sheets. Eventually, the
model could have use as a planning
tool, since the balance sheet will show past priorities in terms of allocations of various resources (assets) and the projections can show possible future
allocations. The data maintained in the database and the modeling programs will be available to instructors, researchers, decision makers in private industry and public policy makers.

Practically, it shows the importance of the pretherapeutic interview with the patient. The practitioner must set positive expectations for the relaxation intervention to be successful. Theoretically, the study underscores the importance of suggestion (and placebo effect) on the phenomenon of relaxation and underscores the importance of methodological precision in research on relaxat,ion procedures.

During the past twenty years, numerous tests and techniques related to the study of respiratory physiology have evolved. Pulmonary function testing has become an increasingly important part of routine respiratory evaluation and is taking an important place among other diagnostic aids such as the chest X ray and the electrocardiogram. Pulmonary function testing measures lung capacities and lung volumes under static and dynamic conditions as well as pressure measurements. In the occupational environment, it is an important evaluation in pulmonary sufficiency in respirator use. It also identifies those workers with pulmonary insufficiency in order to avoid real or imagined complications in respirator use. In the case of occupational exposure to various chemicals, pulmonary function testing can detect the effects of chemicals on respiratory functions. Many respiratory impairments have characteristic patterns of disordered
function, and it is possible to use pulmonary function testing to distinguish an obstructive pattern of pulmonary abnormality from a restrictive pattern. Stephen K.

Human factors in B-52 weaponsdelivery accuracy. The main goal of this research is to identify the "humancomputer" interactive factors which contribute to inaccuracy in weaponsdelivery systems. The research involves the analysis of B-52 bomb-score
distributions obtained from Synchronous Bomb (SYNC), ShortRange Attack Missile (SRAM), and S RAM Ground-Position-Indicator (SRAM GPI) weapons releases. A linear systems-identification technique is used to deconvolve the weaponsdelivery distributions into components which reveal the sources of inaccuracy in weapon delivery, particularly as they relate to the performance of B-52 navigators. Both low-altitude and high-altitude B-52 bombing are to be analyzed, as well as the differences between Student and Mission-Ready B-52 crews. Moreover, the bomb-score data from actual B-52 performance and simulated B-52 performance are to be compared.
Components of human information processing. The main goal of this research is to identify the nature of the specific "mental" operations that the
human brain must perform as a message proceeds from stimulus input to response execution. Reaction-time procedures are utilized to study these operations, that is, to measure the time it takes for experienced operators
to respond to ordinary stimuli such as letters and tones. The results of the analyses are being utilized in the design of computer-driven visual displays in which the capabilities (and limitations) of sensory-perceptual and cognitive operations are analyzed. The on-line implementation of this research program is controlled by a Digital Equipment Corporation PDPI I Computer which is located in an Information Processing Laboratory in the Department of Psychology at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville.

Determination of seasonal effects, which are known to affect organisms in other, more normal bodies of water, but which have seldom been reported on, relative to sewage ponds, will be studied. In addition, the study will permit evaluation of the effect of various standard and maintenance practices, such as altered aeration, variable loading and use of chemicals, including insecticides, on the organisms and on the water quality.

It is postulated that certain T-derived lymphocyte subpopulations and suppressor macrophages make
prostaglandin(s) in vivo. The prostaglandins (PGs) are hormonelike fatty acid-derived compounds found in nearly all tissues. Prostaglandin production in the parasitized host is thought to be provoked in response to the release of mitogen(s) by pathogenic bloodstream trypanosomes. Hence, stimulation of lymphocyte reproduction by mitogen(s) further enhances the endogenous synthesis and release of PGs. In turn, the PGs are thought to regulate the release of soluble suppressor substance(s) by cyclaseactivated alteration of the cAMP/cGMP ratio in suppressor cells. A feedback loop characterized by such a IPG]-[cyclic nucleotide] shift is viewed as a regulatory mechanism that may help account for the intensification of immunosuppression found in the parasite-infected host.

In recent years the mass media have exploited to an excessive degree the stereotype of the Arab. Stereotypes deal with category, thus overlooking the differences found among people with regard to a trait. The word "Arab" is frequently associated with: terrorism, hijack, intractability, sullennous, perverseness, cruelty, oil, boycott, greed, primitive torture and white slavery. The word "Arab" is seldom associated with: artist, scholar, diplomat, philosopher, academician, scientist, journalist, poet, farmer or
devout worshipper. Shaheen's book Television and Arabia will examine the stereotype of the Arab as he is presented in prime-time entertainment programs and documentaries in the years 1975 to 1980. The purpose of the book is to document the Arab stereotype, to offer some historical perspective, to offer some reasons for the negative TV image, and to provide so.me solutions
for consideration.

Edwardsville,lL 62026 CUERS is an interdisciplinary unit that develops, coordinates, and supports research and public service activities related to environmental and urban issues. Specific research projects at the Center, which is located on the Edwardsville campus, typically originate as a result of problems in the Illinois communities of the St. Louis metropolitan region. In all projects, however, a view to the interdependence of the Illinois and Missouri communities that are a part of the St. Louis urban area and to the quality of urban life in general is maintained. Recent studies cover a wide range of interests directly related to the St. Louis region. These studies include profitability of rental housing; lead
paint poisoning in urban children; carbon monoxide levels in the area population; energy aspects of regional land use and trapsportation policies; potential for cogeneration of electricity in local industries; solar energy and residential space heating in southern lllinois; the participation and interest of the regional population in the cultural arts; and the economic reuse of ordinary structures.
An integral part of the CUERS commitment to public service are the conferences, seminars, and workshops relating to the research output of the Center and the problems confronting the St. Louis metropolitan area. Also, a continuing series of Public Affairs Forums on current issues is conducted.
