  • Does Japan exert market power in the world wheat market?

    Creator:
    Murniningtyas, Endah
    Abstract:
    Hypothesis tests are developed for the exertion of market power by the Japanese government in the world and domestic wheat markets. The results indicate that the Japanese government is pursuing a more restrictive import policy for wheat than would be indicated by an optimal tariff strategy. Results also indicate that...

  • Geology of the Elsie-lower Nehalem River area, south-central Clatsop and northern Tillamook counties, northwestern Oregon

    Creator:
    Mumford, Daniel Franklin
    Abstract:
    The middle Eocene Tillamook Volcanics form the oldest rock unit in the Elsie-lower Nehalem River area. K-Ar age determinations and age constraints imposed by foraminiferal and calcareous nannofossil assemblages of overlying sedimentary strata indicate an absolute age of about 42 Ma for the uppermost Tillamook Volcanics. Major oxide values indicate...

  • Computational geometry package with fast Voronoi diagram algorithm

    Creator:
    Nave, Jay
    Abstract:
    An interactive Computational geometry package was developed for the purpose of experimenting with geometry problems in the Euclidean plane. The package also contains computer graphics functions to display the result. Application independent functions were developed that are both flexible and general enough for creating new geometry experiments as well as...

  • Geometric Computer Graphics Package with applications to Steiner's Problem

    Creator:
    Kim, Youn-su
    Abstract:
    An interactive computer graphics package was developed for the purpose of solving certain geometric problems in the Euclidean plane. The Geometric Graphics Package provides basic application-independent functions for creating arbitrary views of two-dimensional objects and for supporting interaction between the application program and its user. The application program contains a...

  • Parental attitudes toward fathering and fathers' involvement with infants

    Creator:
    Furneaux, Noël Annette
    Abstract:
    The present study examined fathers' and mothers' attitudes toward fathering and fathers' involvement with their infant sons and daughters. Subjects included 42 pairs of parents with infants from upper and middle socioeconomic class families. All subjects were of the Caucasian race. The Attitudes Toward Fathering Scale and the Father Behavioral...

  • Development of an object-oriented expert system for PWR core reload

    Creator:
    Greek, Kevin J.
    Abstract:
    Reactor refueling is a computationally intensive problem solving process that requires automation since significant resources are expended upon the search for an optimal core loading. Without imposing some constraints upon the configurations investigated, an extremely large number of prototype loadings may be generated without discovery of an improved loading. As...

  • Factors contributing to preservice teachers' choice of strategies to manage problem behaviors

    Creator:
    Cunningham, Bruce
    Abstract:
    Managing children with problem behaviors is a challenging task for new teachers. Preservice training offers one means of better preparing new teachers to meet this challenge. Before suggesting alterations in preservice training programs, it is necessary to understand how preservice teachers perceive and respond to problem behaviors. Of particular interest...

  • The relationship of instructional delivery methods and individual differences to the training of operators of computer systems

    Creator:
    Kluge, E. Alan
    Abstract:
    The objectives of this study were to: (1) determine if individual differences in the learner characteristics of field dependence, state and trait anxiety, age, sex, and prior computer experience were related to performance in operating a computer system; (2) to determine if differences in performance would occur as a result...

  • A two-group study on the gadolinium particle depletion in light water reactor fuel rods

    Creator:
    Lee, Chungchan
    Abstract:
    The effect of gadolinia particles on the assembly criticality of a light water reactor was investigated using two 2-group models. The particle effect was calculated by comparing the criticalities of two fuel assemblies, each containing one gadolinia-poisoned rod. For purposes of comparison, both rods contained an equal quantity of gadolinia,...
