It has been established that bilinear models
occur frequently in nature and offer some important
advantages from the standpoint. of controllability,
optimization and modeling. The estimation of
bilinear systeim models from the Measurements
of input-output data are discussed. In the
first approach a parametric model of a discrete-time
linear system...
Unit cell or pin cell calculations form the basis for
most nuclear core modeling. Because of this, it is of primary
importance to perform these unit cell calculations
accurately.
The subject of this thesis is the analysis of one of
the major approximations made in unit cell modeling, the
infinite...
The purpose of this study was to determine if male and female
Counselor-Trainees enrolled in master's degree programs in the
State of Oregon would emit significantly different responses to a
new and professionally developed video-based client simulation.
The sample consisted of ninety-two Counselor-Trainees
enrolled during the 1975-76 academic year in...
Interval arithmetic is applied to the problem of obtaining
rigorous solutions to integral equations on a computer. The
integral equations considered are the linear Fredholm equation of
the second kind and the nonlinear Urysohn equation. Techniques are
presented which enable the computer to find an approximate
solution, prove the existence...
Clinical methods to diagnose specific organ dysfunction have not been evaluated in fishes. To determine if an accepted clinical test of mammalian liver function could be applied to fishes, the
hepatic disposition of the organic anion sulfobromophthalein (BSP) was studied in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) treated with a model hepatotoxicant....
Radiosonde data from the National Hail Research Experiment and the Wangara experiment are examined to study vertical gradients of moisture in heated boundary layers which are well-mixed in virtual potential temperature. The frequent occurrence of a significant decrease of moisture with height in the mixed layer over the high plains...

The Columbia River Basalt consists of dozens of seemingly identical flows of basalt covering thousands of square miles of Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. For years, detailed mapping of the units relied almost entirely on subtle petrographic distinctions, the presence or absence of interbeds, and actual walking along contacts in the...

More than 280 species of caddisflies (Trichoptera), representing 80
genera in 16 families, are known to occur in Oregon. Detailed distribution
records within the state are given, as well as the known geographic range
for each species. Biological information, such as life cycle, habitat
preference, flight period, and larval feeding...

Lincoln City, Oregon is an area of active environmental
processes and increasing development. To reduce conflict, a larger
data base on environmental hazards was required. Previous studies
in the area, remote sensing techniques and. field research were used
to accomplish this end. Within Lincoln City, numerous environmental
hazards were identified...
