  • The relative effectiveness of three forms of visual knowledge of results on maximal strength output in an isokinetic extension/flexion of the knee

    Creator:
    Hobbel, Susan Laurie
    Abstract:
    This experiment was conducted to study the effects of three different forms of visual knowledge of results (KR) on maximal strength output in isokinetic exercise. The task used was an isokinetic extension of the knee, followed by a corresponding flexion. Four, six-subject experimental groups completed four testing sessions conducted over...

  • Diffusion of information about clothing to adults with orthopedic limitations

    Creator:
    Leber, Delores Ann
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to propose recommendations for improved diffusion of clothing information to orthopedically limited adults. A sample of 180 orthopedically limited adults residing in the Willamette Valley of Oregon was selected using mailing lists from the Oregon Governor's Conference for the Handicapped, from Oregon State University...

    Sanchez Zamora, Osvaldo
    Abstract:
    Data collected by personnel of the Geophysics Group at Oregon State University and the Instituto Oceanografico of the Direccion General dé Oceanografia are used to construct a free-air anomaly map for the central part of the Pacific continental margin of Mexico, which shows the gravity expression of major structural features...

  • Specification of local surface weather elements from large-scale general circulation model information, with application to agricultural impact assessment

    Creator:
    Wilks, Daniel S.
    Abstract:
    A procedure for model-assisted climate impact assessment is developed. The approach combines data from observations and atmospheric general circulation models (GCNs), and provides the basis for a potentially valuable means of using information derived from GCMs for climate impact assessments on local scales. The first component of this procedure is...

  • Studies on growth metabolites produced by Propionibacterium shermanii

    Creator:
    Salih, Mohammed Ali
    Abstract:
    The ability of Propionibacterium shermanii to produce growth metabolites which were inhibitory to food spoilage indicator organisms was investigated. Asperqillus niqer, a Pseudomonas species and Kluyveromyces fraqilis were the spoilage indicators chosen to represent molds, gram negative psychrotrophic bacteria and yeasts, respectively. Supplementation of milk or whey based media was...

  • Fresh fish quality : consumer perceptions and need for indicators

    Creator:
    Hadlett, Heidi Marie
    Abstract:
    A sample of 398 rural and urban homemakers who participate in the Oregon State University Extension Home Economics study group program were surveyed to identify their perceptions of quality in fresh fish purchased for home use. The need for quality indicators on labels of fresh fish, and household practices pertaining...

  • Decay caused by infection of Fomes cajanderi Karst : in top-broken, young-growth Douglas-fir trees

    Creator:
    Cahill, James M.
    Abstract:
    A glaze storm of exceptional severity was seen in the Corvallis area, January, 1942. The weight of ice that accumulated in the crowns of young-growth Douglas-fir trees caused widespread top breakage in many stands lying in the broad path of this storm. Early research on this phenomenon showed the majority...

  • Power weight training applied to college females

    Creator:
    Wegner, Julie A.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a power lifting weight training program on the dynamic strength, static strength and body composition of college females. Thirteen college females volunteered for the study. The subjects trained three days per week for a total of nine weeks which...

  • A simplified model of heat transfer between large-particle gas-fluidized beds and immersed surfaces

    Creator:
    Bakke, Paul D.
    Abstract:
    A simplified model of the combined particle convective and radiative components of heat transfer between large-particle gas-fluidized beds and immersed surfaces was developed. This analytical model was based on the single particle formulation of Adams and Welty [4,9], with the added assumptions of one-dimensional heat conduction in the particle and...

  • Unidirectional error correcting/detecting codes

    Creator:
    Lin, Der Jei
    Abstract:
    An extensive theory of symmetric error control coding has been developed in the last few decades. The recently developed VLSI circuits, ROM, and RAM memories have given an impetus to the extension of error control coding to include asymmetric and unidirectional types of error control. The maximal numbers of unidirectional...
