Seven cerebral palsied children living in the home and their
mothers were involved in this study. The mothers attended eight
weekly sessions and were instructed in basic nutrition and feeding
skill development. A Food and Nutrition Education Curriculum was
developed for this instruction. Each of the eight lessons in the...
The sampling theorem states that any frequency bandlimited signal can be exactly reconstructed from its sampled values. Different forms of this theorem have been reviewed since 1841 up to the present time. Kramer's generalized sampling theorem has been extended to two dimensions, and the form for higher dimensions can be...
The "cotton fur" (CF) condition in mink has been shown through
investigations at Oregon State University to have three basic causes,
viz.: 1) Feeding diets of fish comprising certain species of the cod
family, including: Pacific hake, Atlantic whiting and Alaskan pollock;
2) Inclusion of rancid fats in the diet;...
The low temperature geothermal resource at Klamath Falls,
Oregon is widely used for heating buildings. A common technique
for using this resource consists of a heat exchanger down in the
well inside a casing which extends the full length of the well.
Slots are cut in the casing to allow...
Barth's theory of transactional analysis is applied to the
community of Tiller, Oregon and its reaction to a development proposal.
Community behavior patterns vis-a-vis the development proposal are
examined from a processual point of view to determine how these
patterns are generated.
The community's history and contemporary situation are described....
MARLA is a collection of FORTRAN routines which
implements the Shannon-type-chess program with alphabeta
cutoffs occurring dynamically. Board positions
are updated incrementally. Also involved in position
analysis is a production system which models the human
chess player's advice-taking, theme, and chess learning
in a general sense. Interfacing these two sections,...
This thesis presents an introduction to Marketing Research concepts,
relates Operations Research to Marketing Research and discusses
the limitations of each. An Information Theory approach based
on Shannon's fundamental theorems and extended by Kunisawa is
applied to one-factor and two-factor marketing problems.
The objective of one-factor information channel models is...
Several empirical formulas that may be used to estimate available
chilling are presented in this study. Many climatic parameters
were considered in the derivation of these formulas. One equation
employing only maximum and minimum temperatures had a coefficients
of correlation (R) and R² values of .978 and .957, respectively. This...
