Characterization of the feedback between the instructor and student teams engaged in a virtual bioreactor laboratory project

Creator:: Whinnery, Jaynie L.
Abstract:: This thesis characterizes the feedback between the instructor and student teams engaged in a Virtual Bioreactor (VBioR) Laboratory Project. The project allows senior-level chemical, biological, and environmental engineering students to apply their developing knowledge and skills in an industrially situated process optimization project. Feedback is an important tool for instructors...

Radioxenon generation using highly enriched uranium

Creator:: Elliott, Anthony James
Abstract:: This work focuses on the generation and collection of four specific radioxenon isotopes; xenon-131m, xenon-133m, xenon-133 and xenon-135. These nuclides are created by fissioning a highly enriched uranium sample using a thermal neutron source from a university research reactor. The three main aspects of this work include: (1) Conducting preliminary...

Physicochemical properties of Alaska pollock surimi as affected by salinity and freeze-thaw cycles

Creator:: Kang, Ey Jung
Abstract:: The effects of the residual salt of surimi on biochemical and physical properties as affected by various freeze and thaw cycles were examined. Fresh Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) surimi was mixed with 4.0% sugar, and 5.0% sorbitol, along with eight combinations of salt (0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 % NaCl)...

Hybrid electric vehicle active rectifier performance analysis

Creator:: Amon, Ean A.
Abstract:: In advanced hybrid electric vehicle development, performance and dependability are essential considerations in the design process. High efficiency is crucial in a successful design and fault tolerance is necessary to provide limp-home capability under faulted operating conditions. The reduction of electromagnetic interference is mandatory to reduce interference in communications and...

Development of leadership and design skills among ECE juniors and graduate students

Creator:: Luo, Ding
Abstract:: Engineering students spend a significant amount of their undergraduate careers focused on technical theory and practice. This intensive student prepares them for their technical challenges in the future. This training is so intense that often the more 'soft skills' such as communication, leadership, design, and troubleshooting are left out or...

Influence of adjustable speed drive on induction motor fault detection using stator current monitoring.

Creator:: Al-Shahrani, Ali
Abstract:: The detection of motor faults at their incipient stage is of prime importance to any industrial plant. The introduction of adjustable speed drives has improved the control and the efficiency of induction motors, however, this has changed the nature of motor faults and how they can be detected. Current signature...

Determination of a calculation bias in the MCNP model of the OSTR

Creator:: Kitto, Allyson K.
Abstract:: Oregon State University is home to a TRIGA® Mark II reactor. In October of 2008, the reactor began operating on low enriched uranium fuel. A model of the facility exists in MCNP, a Monte Carlo code that can be used for criticality calculations. Until now, a bias in the calculation...

Formation of NO during pyrolysis combustion of Kraft black liquor / by Rungsun Pianpucktr

Creator:: Pianpucktr, Rungsun
Abstract:: Nitrogen evolution during black liquor pyrolysis and black liquor combustion were studied using a laminar entrained-flow reactor. The experimental conditions were 700-1100°C and 0.3-2.2 seconds residence time. The pyrolysis experiments were performed in a pure nitrogen atmosphere. The oxygen concentrations during the combustion of black liquor experiments were 4 and...

Use of a model predictive control framework for optimal control of grid scale electrical energy storage in conjunction with a wind farm

Creator:: Antonishen, Michael P.
Abstract:: Over the last decade, wind penetration in the Pacific Northwest has increased rapidly. The variable nature of this massive new resource has increased stress on the hydropower resource to the point where system limits are currently being reached. In order to cultivate continued growth of the wind energy industry both...

Magnetically programmable surface acoustic wave devices for RFID applications

Creator:: Chin, Matthew
Abstract:: Magnetically programmable surface acoustic wave (MP SAW) devices were designed, fabricated and characterized in this thesis using integrated giant magnetoresistive (GMR) bits with interdigital reflectors. This provides a proof of concept of a novel storage element on radio frequency identification tags. Interdigital transducers (IDTs) on a piezoelectric substrate are used...
