  • Stress among working women : an examination of family structure, occupational status, and workplace relationships

    Creator:
    Schmiege, Cynthia J.
    Abstract:
    Since the industrial revolution, work and family have been viewed as separate spheres, with women relegated to the family sphere. With the advent of women into the paid labor force, few studies have considered the potentially complex context of women's work and family experiences. The purpose of this study was...

  • Forging new paths : life course transitions for American women and their families

    Creator:
    Schmiege, Cynthia J.
    Abstract:
    Families of remarriage constitute a growing number of American families. The spiraling divorce rate of the 1970s was accompanied by a concomitant increase in the number of remarriages. Forty percent of American families today contain at least one spouse that has been previously married, thus studying relationships within families of...

  • Chaos in a long rectangular wave channel

    Creator:
    Bowline, Cynthia M.
    Abstract:
    The Melnikov method is applied to a model of parametrically generated cross-waves in a long rectangular channel in order to determine if these cross-waves are chaotic. A great deal of preparation is involved in order to obtain a suitable form for the application of the Melnikov method. The Lagrangian for...

  • Heuristic algorithm for multistage scheduling in food processing industry

    Creator:
    Juwono, Cynthia P.
    Abstract:
    A multistage production system consists of a number of production stages that are interrelated, that is the output from one stage forms input to the next stage. There are constraints associated with each stage as well as constraints imposed by the overall system. Besides, there are multiple objectives that need...

  • Influences of riparian canopy on aquatic communities in high desert streams of eastern Oregon

    Creator:
    Tait, Cynthia K.
    Abstract:
    Because riparian canopy controls most energy inputs to stream ecosystems, it directly affects the structure of aquatic food webs and the ecological processes that govern interactions among trophic levels. This study addresses the interdependence among riparian canopy, benthic community structure, and the carrying capacity of high desert streams for salmonid...

  • Evaluating the restoration potential of black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) from multiple scales of observation, Grande Ronde River Basin, Oregon, USA

    Creator:
    Hines, Cynthia A.
    Abstract:
    As a key factor contributing to slope stability, in-stream habitat for aquatic species (e.g., salmonids), nutrient cycling, and corridors for upland species, riparian vegetation and its maintenance is of critical conservation importance. Subsequently, the chronic degradation of aquatic and riparian ecosystems in the semi-arid and arid landscapes of the western...

  • A model for the prediction of biologically mediated reductive dechlorination pathways

    Creator:
    Cozza, Cynthia L.
    Abstract:
    The environment has been exposed to a number of hazardous chlorinated organic compounds. These compounds may be anaerobically biotransformed by sequential reductive dechlorination reactions in which the chlorine atoms are replaced with hydrogen atoms. Because reductive dechlorination processes may occur very slowly in the environment and chlorine position affects the...

  • Pollution prevention in Oregon's electronics industry

    Creator:
    Jones, Cynthia L.
    Abstract:
    Pollution prevention is promoted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other governmental agencies as a method of reducing the generation of wastes and pollutants. Pollution prevention is also called source reduction because it reduces wastes early in the production process. Source reduction has been used by some industries to...

  • Public health hazards as a constraint on oyster production in the contiguous United States

    Creator:
    Rugger, Cynthia S.
    Abstract:
    Oyster production in the United States has declined from a leading nineteenth century fishery to a minor, failing industry. Oystermen must now depend on a diminished resource in an environment of competing and conflicting coastal uses. One of the most important influences on the industry's welfare is the sanitation of...

    Abstract:
    This is a collection of eight short stories, all of which deal on some level with alienation and the struggle to find meaning in one's life. Although most of the stories deal with issues related to women or feature female protagonists, I did not set out to create a political...
