  • Information processing errors in linear feedback control systems

    Creator:
    Chong, Hoi-yeung
    Abstract:
    This report is concerned with the analysis of the effect of finite wordlength, channel capacity and source rate in digital feedback control of linear systems. The cases considered are (1) finite wordlength A/D conversion, no feedback delay, ideal ROM (read only memory) controller; (2) finite A/D wordlength (source rate), state...

  • Interurban growth : Corvallis - Philomath, Oregon

    Creator:
    Highsmith, Richard M.
    Abstract:
    The cities of Corvallis and Philomath, Oregon, have, over the last three decades, grown both spatially and in numbers of people. This study examines the attractions and constraints to growth between the two cities. The most notable constraint to growth is the fact that the soils in the study area...

  • Personality characteristics of selected community college dropouts

    Creator:
    Edelbrock, Gary Ray
    Abstract:
    The Purpose of the Study The central purpose of this study was to determine if certain personality characteristics differ between community college persisters and those who drop out of school. The following 12 a priori hypotheses involving six Adjective Check List personality scales were tested: 1. Male persisters would have...

  • A technique for predicting the urban structure of a region

    Creator:
    Warwick, William Michael
    Abstract:
    The two classic theories of the distribution of cities in an urban system are the rank size rule and central place theory. The rank size relationships, as incorporated into G. K. Zipf's Principle of Least Effort, is seen as the result of a balancing of the opposing forces of urban...

  • Extent of DNA homology in some distantly and intimately related fishes

    Creator:
    Gharrett, Anthony John
    Abstract:
    An attempt was made to differentiate between runs of steelhead by comparing the reassociations of their DNA. Conditions for the reassociation were studied using E. coli DNA, and observations were made spectrophotometrically. Of the five buffers examined, 1.0 molar sodium perchlorate plus one-hundredth molar tris-HCl, pH 7.1, at 60° or...

  • A genetic study of the red-band trout (Salmo sp.)

    Creator:
    Wilmot, Richard L.
    Abstract:
    A group of trout that reside in streams of the desiccating lake basins of southeastern Oregon differ markedly from other known Salmo. Known commonly as the red-band trout, this fish was subjected to chromosome analysis for comparison with other species of western North American Salmo. The karyotype of the red-banded...

  • Molecular taxonomy of Aeromonas

    Creator:
    Beach, Peter Gavette
    Abstract:
    DNA reassociations, measured by optical and double label membrane filter techniques, were used to assess genetic relationships among Aeromonas and enterobacteria. Aeromonads from human sources, food, fresh water, fish, and pet turtles were examined. The base compositions of three A. salmonicida isolates were 58% G+C while the base compositions of...

  • The spatial characteristics of the seafood processing industry

    Creator:
    Bonacker, Gregg Lynn
    Abstract:
    This study examines the spatial characteristics of the seafood processing industry on the Oregon Coast. Three study areas are discussed: the Astoria area, the Newport area, and the Coos Bay area. The industry is categorized by four types of seafood processors. Types and uses of processing and nonprocessing space are...
