Response of needle-litter decomposition and soil nitrogen mineralization to logging-debris manipulation and competing vegetation control in western Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Meehan, Nathan Andrew
Abstract:: Growing societal demand for forest products is pressuring managers to increase productivity from a finite land area, and it is expected that increased supply will come mostly from expansion of intensively managed stands. The USDA Forest Service and numerous collaborators created the Long-Term Soil Productivity (LTSP) network of research sites...

Photoluminescence properties investigation of germanium inserted biosilica generated by bioreactor culture of marine diatom Nitzschia frustulum

Creator:: Qin, Tian
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to investigate the optoelectronic properties of the Ge doped biosilica, mainly focused on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of diatom frustules of N. frustulum that contain metabolically inserted germanium oxide produced by a two-stage photobioreactor cultivation process. In order to explain the observed PL intensity...

Model extraction of a paddle in plastic surface-mount RF-IC packages

Creator:: Sundberg, Garth
Abstract:: Plastic packaging is a cost-effective solution for housing RF and microwave integrated circuits in low cost communication devices. While enabling low cost packaging of integrated circuits, plastic packages including the circuit ground patch (paddle) inside the package can have a significant parasitic effect on circuit performance. The purpose of this...

Magnetic bead detection with ferromagnetic resonance for use in immuno-biosensor application

Creator:: Ghionea, Simon
Abstract:: The objective of this thesis is to introduce and demonstrate a novel magnetic bead detector based on inductive detection at the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) frequency for use in bio-sensing applications. Detection ability is demonstrated through theoretical arguments, numerical computer simulations, and experimental characterization of micro-fabricated detectors. The detector is composed...

Internal curing of high-performance concrete for bridge decks

Creator:: Deboodt, Tyler
Abstract:: High performance concrete (HPC) provides a long lasting, durable concrete that is typically used in bridge decks due to its low permeability, high abrasion resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and strength. However, this type of concrete is highly susceptible to the deleterious effects of both autogenous and drying shrinkage. Both types of...

Integration of vapor-solid grown ZnO nanowires through dielectrophoresis

Creator:: Ng, Vi-Vie
Abstract:: Work on individually constructed devices has demonstrated that nanowires (NWs) offer great promise for applications such as sensing and optoelectronics. Despite this work, reliable large scale alignment and integration of these individual nanostructures into a lithographically defined process remains a challenge. Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a promising alignment method in which...

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...

Exposure of ionic hyper-regulated artemia to chlorine – 36 in a marine system

Creator:: Shaw, Christopher Glenn
Abstract:: Chlorine – 36 (36Cl) is produced naturally, through neutron activation of stable chlorine during nuclear weapons detonation, or from neutron capture on residual chlorine in graphite piles. It has a half-life of 301,000 years and decays by the means of beta decay with an average energy of 236.33 keV. Due...

Development of acoustic transducers for use in the parametric pumping of spin waves

Creator:: Gross, Jonah M.
Abstract:: The work detailed here is the development of simulations and fabrication techniques used for the construction of thin-film acoustic transducers for use in the parametric pumping of spin waves. The Mason Model, a 1-D equivalent circuit simulating the responses of multilayer acoustic transducers, is implemented using ABCD-parameters in MATLAB to...
