Experimental analysis of task prioritization training for a group of university flight technology students

Creator:: Hoover, Amy L.
Abstract:: Task prioritization performance was evaluated for pilots who participated in a concurrent task management (CTM) training course and pilots who did not. CTM is the process by which pilots selectively attend to high priority tasks and shed non-priority tasks. Twenty seven pilots enrolled in a university flight technology program were...

A study of the accidents within the trucking industry and the effectiveness of the accident countermeasures

Creator:: Lewellyn-Barnett, Tracey A.
Abstract:: A random sample of Oregon motor carriers was selected to determine the effectiveness of the Accident Countermeasures (ACM), a process created to address the factors involved in truck accidents and recommendations a motor carrier may utilize to prevent future similar accidents from occurring. Two groups of fifty motor carriers were...

Process-based modeling for cradle-to-gate energy and carbon footprint reduction in product design

Creator:: Alsaffar, Ahmed J.
Abstract:: Interest in accounting for environmental impacts of products, processes, and systems during the design phase is increasing. Numerous studies have undertaken investigations for reducing environmental impacts across the product life cycle. Efforts have also been launched to quantify such impacts more accurately. Life cycle energy consumption and carbon footprint are...

Comparison of secondary neutron dose from 10 MV intensity modulated radiation therapy and volume modulated arc therapy

Creator:: Catchpole, Mary Elizabeth
Abstract:: Photoneutron contamination produced during high-energy, external beam radiotherapy can contribute to total patient dose. This aspect of unwanted dose is not currently evaluated for patients undergoing radiation therapy. While multiple studies have examined the neutron dose from beams with energies above 10 MeV, research assessing neutron dose from a 10...

Protective Action Decision Making in Large-Scale Emergencies: The Role of Information Requirements and Job Aids in Community-Level Decision Making

Creator:: Al-Abdrabbuh, Sami
Abstract:: Protective Action Decision Making is used to protect communities from adverse events and hazards. Models such as PADM (Lindell & Perry 2012) describe individual behaviors but have not robustly examined the information requirements in the solicitation process. The literature further indicates gaps in understanding the individual impacts of specific factors...

A framework for integrating systems thinking into sustainable manufacturing

Creator:: Zhang, Hao
Abstract:: Improving the understanding the relations of sustainability behaviors in manufacturing systems and actively engaging with manufacturers (especially SMEs) in sustainability efforts is key to the long-term success of U.S. industry and the natural environment. This study addresses this urgent need by establishing a systemic approach for the design of costing...

A Proposed Social Return on Investment Reporting Tool for Oregon Nonprofit Organizations Supporting Anti-Poverty Welfare Programs

Creator:: Martin, Molly Anne
Abstract:: Nonprofit organizations are feeling increased pressure to demonstrate their service’s impacts to their investors. Social return on investment is a tool that measures the social efficiency, or social return, of services by calculating a social return ratio. While social return on investment has seen increasing use by nonprofit organizations, a...

Locating and Quantifying Contamination Deposited in Radiation Puncture Wounds

Creator:: Wehmann, Nicholas K.
Abstract:: Internal dosimetry models show a representation of how radionuclides move through the body. This study takes a look at radiation wounds by modelling a puncture wound to the hand using Microshield software. An analysis of these models provides a triangulation method that could be used to investigate wound characteristics, as...
