AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the difficulty in locating NASA Technical Report 19770013810, which addresses the physiological effects of infrasound on humans. Participants suggest various strategies for searching, including using government-specific search engines and exploring related documents. The report number appears to yield no results on NASA's technical reports server, leading to frustration among users. Some members recommend alternative document IDs and resources, including the Defense Technical Information Center, where a related document is available. Overall, the conversation highlights the challenges in accessing specific technical reports and the need for effective search techniques.

NASA Technical Report 19770013810.

Any help is appreciated. I have looked and looked but I can find nothing by googling or by searching various NASA sites. I'm not real adept at the NASA search engines so I may not have been looking in the right place.

The paper discusses some of the physical/physiological effects of infrasound on humans.

Do you know the title/author/date of the report?

The report number is turning up a blank on NASA's technical reports server

http://ntrs.nasa.gov

The only place that supposed report turns up is in reference to that guy's book. Strange that he doesn't list the year, title, authors, etc...?
 
Thanks all. No enigma that's all I know for now. I am going to email the author that cites the paper and ask for guidance.
 
This may or may not help. try googling only government sites...

This link will return only .gov sites for your query.

Here is one link on infrasound that I found using this method:

Hope that helps. Jeremy

Do you mean document:
19800007533
or
19730008358

Which came up in the NASA search and look appropriate?
 
NateTG,
What am I doing wrong? I did find the one report by searching infrasound in the abstracts [1 of 1800 hits at the server linked by enigma], but I get nothing by entering the report number; even in the advanced search.
 
I think the answer is that one can't search by report number.

That's a really great feature!

That does seem to be the case. I think I searched for infrasound and just paged through the results. None of the papers are on-line though.

Try something like "infrasound human" in the search fields.

The NASA Center for AeroSpace Information does not have the full text for DOC ID 19870046176, “The effects of whole-body vibration.” It is available in a variety of European libraries via Worldcat: http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/13456411&referer=brief_results. To find this book throughout Europe enter a specific city or country in the “Enter your Location” box.

DOC ID 19770013810, “Mechanical Resonant Frequency of the Human Eye in Vivo” is available as a full-text PDF online via the Defense Technical Information Center: http://www.dtic.mil/cgi-bin/GetTRDoc?AD=ADA030476&Location=U2&doc=GetTRDoc.pdf
