Oregon coast cold storage : simulation modeling and optimal temperature management for efficient planning

Creator:: Burden, Merrick J.
Abstract:: For years, the Oregon fishing industry has argued that the lack of coastal cold storage designed to handle seafood has severely limited the opportunity to develop value-added products and retain seafood industry employment. Once landed, the majority of Oregon seafood spends little time on the coast, and a large portion...

Optimal Storage Temperature Design for Frozen Seafood Inventories: Application to Pacific Whiting Surimi

Creator:: Burden, Merrick, Sylvia, Gilbert, and Kolbe, Edward
Abstract:: Frozen storage is an integral part of effective food distribution. In general, both food quality retention and storage costs will increase as storage temperatures decrease. In this paper, we develop a model for optimal temperature design for semi-perishable seafood inventory, and apply the model to Pacific Whiting surimi. General results...

Navigation and coordination of autonomous mobile robots with limited resources

Creator:: Knudson, Matthew D.
Abstract:: The use of autonomous robots in complex exploration tasks is rapidly increasing. Indeed, robots can provide speed and cost effectiveness in many tasks, as well as allow operation in environments that are hostile to humans. In this dissertation we: 1) provide two adaptive navigation algorithms; 2) develop a coordination mechanism;...

The economics of spatial choice and displacement: case study of the Oregon bottom trawl groundfish fishery

Creator:: Valcic, Branka
Abstract:: To increase the knowledge needed to successfully implement the ecosystem-based approach to fishery management, this dissertation investigates important issues within the economics of choice and the economics of displacement. In particular, a discrete choice model of the fishing location decision in the Newport, Oregon bottom trawl groundfish fishery is estimated...

Continuous time input pipeline ADCs

Creator:: Gubbins, David Patrick
Abstract:: Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) convert analog continuous time signals into discrete time, digital format. One precondition that must be met for conventional nyquist rate ADCs is that the input signal must be suitably band-limited to an input bandwidth less than the nyquist frequency. This mandates expensive anti-alias filters which contribute to...

Design techniques for low-voltage analog-to-digital converter

Creator:: Chang, Dong-Young
Abstract:: Continuous process scale-down and emerging markets for low-power/low-voltage mobile systems call for low-voltage analog integrated circuits. Switched-capacitor circuits are the building blocks for analog signal processing and will encounter severe overdrive problems when operating at low-voltage conditions. There are several well-known techniques to bypass the problem. These approaches include: (1)...

Bereavement experiences following a death under Oregon's Death with Dignity Act

Creator:: Srinivasan, Erica G.
Abstract:: Oregon residents with a terminal illness have had the option to use aid-in-dying under the Oregon Death with Dignity Act (DWDA) since 1997. The DWDA allows terminally ill Oregonians to make a request for lethal dosages of medication, prescribed by physicians for the purpose of self-administering to end one's life....

An investigation of carbon and nitrogen metabolism through a genomic analysis of the genus Nitrobacter

Creator:: Starkenburg, Shawn R.
Abstract:: The chemolithoautotrophic nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) participate in the biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen by catalyzing and conserving energy from the oxidation of nitrite (NO₂-) to nitrate (NO₃-) via a nitrite oxidoreductase (NXR). The main objective of this work was to comparatively annotate and analyze the genome sequences of Nitrobacter winogradskyi...
