Log cost allocation for multiple mill merchandising systems

Creator:: Leatherman, Louis M.
Abstract:: Co-located mills that share a log resource through a single merchandising facility are challenged with the task of allocating the costs of joint-products in order to determine log cost for each mill during a given period. While allocating joint-costs is inherently arbitrary, some allocation must be made to include raw...

The impact of shared ownership on virtual team effectiveness

Creator:: Bonnono, Mark A.
Abstract:: This research studied the role of shared ownership on virtual team effectiveness, using student teams enrolled in engineering management coursework at Oregon State University and Virginia Polytechnic Institute. After a thorough review of the literature, the concept of shared ownership was developed. This concept was operationalized as the extent to...

Developing a Standard to Assess Water Repellency and Dimensional Stability of Preservative Treated Railroad Ties or Other Large Timbers

Creator:: Trebelhorn, Daniel B.
Abstract:: Untreated wood is inherently hygroscopic and moisture content variations can have substantial effects on dimensional stability leading to the development of deep surface checks that further enhance moisture uptake and ultimately encourage deterioration. The horizontal exposure of wood crossties makes water repellency and dimensional stability particularly important in railroad applications....

The effect of feedstock composition on defect evolution in powder injection molded ceramic microarrays using simulations and experiments

Creator:: Laddha, Sachin
Abstract:: Micro Powder injection molding (μPIM) is a cost-effective technique for producing small, complex, precision parts in high volumes from ceramic and metal nanoparticles. This study focuses on research conducted on fabrication of Micro Ceramic Arrays (MCAs) parts using μPIM. MCAs are widely used as the major components and design features...

Modeling the fixed bed drying characteristics of biomass particles

Creator:: Yang, Hai
Abstract:: The fixed bed drying of western hemlock and Douglas-fir biomass particles at temperatures ranging from 50°C to 200°C and air velocities from 0.3 to 0.9 m/s was investigated. The objectives were to describe the drying characteristics of the particles, fit a model for thin-layer drying, and develop and test a...

Global Overview of the Cross-Laminated Timber Industry

Creator:: Albee, Raquel R.
Abstract:: The global Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) industry has changed dramatically within the past decade, with expansion outside of its start in Alpine Europe. The societal focus on more sustainable options within the built environment has led to an increased use of mass timber construction and its products including cross-laminated timber. Examining...
