  • Analysis of pressure variations observed at the ocean bottom during the 2003 Tokachi-Oki earthquake

    Creator:
    Li, Wenwen
    Abstract:
    Most tsunami studies have been conducted based on the incompressible fluid theory. However water compressibility must be considered for the process of tsunami generation by bottom displacements during submarine earthquakes. During the 2003 Tokachi-Oki earthquake, the ocean-bottom pressure variations were registered by the pressure gauges PG1 and PG2 located right...

  • Willingness to Pay for Seafood Quality Improvement in Taiwan

    Creator:
    Chuang, Ching-Ta, Chang, Cheng-Ming, and Yeh, Li-Hsien
    Abstract:
    Seafood inspection and certification has become a trend on international trade. Recent incidences of chemical residues were examined in exporting seafood products which hinder the future export to the European Union and Japan particularly. Hence, the perceptions of seafood quality and safety from a consumer point of view and international...

  • Clothing evaluative criteria : a comparison between hedonic shoppers and utilitarian shoppers

    Creator:
    Yeh, Chun-Lan
    Abstract:
    According to Engel, Blackwell, and Miniard (1993), evaluative criteria is defined as "the standards and specifications used by consumers to compare different products and brands" (p.51). Many studies have investigated factors that might influence the importance of clothing evaluative criteria used by consumers in the decision making process. However, few...

  • Laboratory observations of tsunami runup on a complex 3D bathymetry using PIV

    Creator:
    Ichikawa, Shingo
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents the details of a large-scale laboratory experiment to study the runup velocity on a complex 3D bathymetry. The PIV measurements including the instrumental setup, the recording procedure, and the image processing are presented. Tsunami inundation directly affects the coastal population and is one of the most important...

  • Garbage in, garbage out? An empirical look at oracle mistakes by end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Phalgune, Amit
    Abstract:
    End-user programmers, because they are human, make mistakes. However, past research has not considered how visual end-user debugging devices could be designed to ameliorate the effects of mistakes. This paper empirically examines oracle mistakes mistakes users make about which values are right and which are wrong to reveal differences in...

  • End user software engineering features for both genders

    Creator:
    Sorte, Shraddha
    Abstract:
    Previous research has revealed gender differences that impact females’ willingness to adopt software features in end users’ programming environments. Since these features have separately been shown to help end users problem solve, it is important to female end users’ productivity that we find ways to make these features more acceptable...

  • Asymmetric tensor visualization with glyph and hyperstreamline placement on 2D manifolds

    Creator:
    Palke, Darrel, Chen, Guoning, Lin, Zhongzang, Yeh, Harry, Laramee, Robert, and Zhang, Eugene
    Abstract:
    Asymmetric tensor fields present new challenges for visualization techniques such as hyperstreamline placement and glyph packing. This is because the physical behaviors of the tensors are fundamentally different inside real domains where eigenvalues are real and complex domains where eigenvalues are complex. We present a hybrid visualization approach in which...

  • An experimental study and a three-dimensional numerical wave basin model of solitary wave impact on a vertical cylinder

    Creator:
    Zhang, Wenbin
    Abstract:
    An experiment on solitary wave impact on a vertical cylinder was conducted in the three-dimensional wave basin at the Oregon State University Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory. The cylinder was designed using mechanic principles and finite element analysis techniques to enable accurate measurement of horizontal force and overturning moment. Video data...

  • Microwave scattering from surf zone waves

    Creator:
    Catalán Mondaca, Patricio A.
    Abstract:
    Wave breaking in the surf zone is an important forcing mechanism on the generation of nearshore currents and in the driving of sediment transport. At the same time, wave breaking can have significant spatial and temporal variability that needs to be accounted for in the description of nearshore processes. Remote...

  • Investigation of new compatibilizer systems for wood-polyethylene composites

    Creator:
    Geng, Yu
    Abstract:
    Wood-plastic composites (WPCs) are one of the fastest-growing sectors of the wood composites industry. However, the strengths of WPCs are typically low because of the poor interfacial adhesion between hydrophilic wood and hydrophobic thermoplastics. A compatibilizer that can form bridges between wood and plastics is required to give WPCs desirable...
