Investigation of Multi-constellation RTK GNSS Survey Productivity and Coordinate Accuracy

Creator:: Jamieson, Marian H.
Abstract:: This study evaluates the productivity and accuracy of surveys completed with single-base real-time kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) using four different GNSS constellation combinations: (1) GPS-only, (2) GPS+GLONASS, (3) GPS+Galileo+BeiDou, and (4) GPS+GLONASS+Galileo+BeiDou. For this comparison, we set up a test site consisting of 20 stations ranging with...

An evaluation of a water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) program for rural communities in northern Afghanistan

Creator:: Costello, Denise H.
Abstract:: The Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) sector of international development works to increase access to sustainable, safe water and improved sanitation. Currently, at least 780 million people live without clean drinking water and 2.5 billion without access to improved sanitation (UNICEF & World Health Organization, 2012). Lack of access to...

Initial velocity analyses of milling effects on rates of enzyme-catalyzed saccharification of native wheat straw

Creator:: Nguyen, Quynh M.
Abstract:: There is considerable interest in developing environmentally friendly processes for the economical conversion of biomass plant material to biofuels, bioproducts and biomaterials. One approach to such a conversion process is to make use of enzymes for the conversion of plant polysaccharides to simple sugars; the simple sugars could then be...

Tsunami Simulation Using OpenSees : Validation of Bridge Response and Exploration of Shallow Water Flow

Creator:: Cressman, Luke R.
Abstract:: The finite element software framework, OpenSees, has been used by researchers to simulate the response of structural and geotechnical systems to earthquake loading. Implementation of the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) has made it possible to simulate hydrodynamic forces through fluid-structure interaction (FSI) in OpenSees. To validate the FSI implementation...

Selective oxidation of biological matrices for subsequent peroxidase and peroxidase-based quantitative analyses

Creator:: Jiang, Shu
Abstract:: Hydrogen peroxide quantification is of broad interest due to the common use of hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent in industrial processing and laboratory research. Hydrogen peroxide assays are also of general importance for biological studies aimed at understanding the role of in situ generated reactive oxygen species. In the...

Controlling Important Pathogens in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Assessing Cryopreservation Survival of Bacteria and Parasites and Clinical Sensitivity of Mycobacterial qPCR Assays

Creator:: Norris, Lauren J.
Abstract:: Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are one of the most commonly used animal models in biomedical research. Zebrafish resource facilities, like the Zebrafish International Resource Center (ZIRC) in Eugene, Oregon, are the main providers and keepers of numerous zebrafish wild-type, mutant, and transgenic lines. Although ZIRC maintains live zebrafish at various life...

Impact of Pre-fermentation Cold Soak Conditions on Pinot Noir Wine Quality

Creator:: Fu, Mengying
Abstract:: Wine volatile composition is one of the most important components of wine quality, and it is greatly affected by multiple factors, including grape variety, viticultural practices, and winemaking procedures. Pre-fermentation cold soak is one of the winemaking techniques widely undertaken by winemakers to modify their red wine quality. Imposing a...

Finite element modeling of gusset plate failure using OpenSees

Creator:: Walker, Andrew J.
Abstract:: The collapse of the I-35W Bridge in Minneapolis, MN in 2007 prompted an investigation into the design and inspection of the steel truss bridges. Further investigation into the collapse revealed that a gusset plate experienced sway buckling, causing the bridge failure. This bridge failure motivated research into the analysis and...

Sustainable bio-composites for west coast highways

Creator:: Karas, Michael
Abstract:: Wildfire prevention operations like forest thinning and forest fuel removal result in large volumes of woody biomass available for utilization. In 2007 alone, the US federal government spent nearly $2 billion to fight forest fires on federal lands. Annually, the USDA Forest Service spends $1 billion to thin young trees...

A Multivariate Comparison of Drone-Based Structure from Motion and Drone-Based Lidar for Dense Topographic Mapping Applications

Creator:: Simpson, Chase H.
Abstract:: Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), also known as drones, are an increasingly popular method of collecting surveying and mapping data. Two common drone-based mapping techniques are lidar and structure from motion (SfM) photogrammetry, and a frequently-heard (yet nearly impossible to answer) question is: “which is better?” The most common metric for...
