Flexural steel anchorage performance at diagonal crack locations

Creator:: Triska, Mary Ann
Abstract:: Large numbers of reinforced concrete deck girder bridges that were constructed during the interstate system expansion of the 1950s have developed diagonal cracking in the stems. Compared to the present AASHTO-LRFD standards, the provisions of the 1950s allowed for higher shear stress in the concrete, thus reducing the amount of...

Influence of parental acculturation on family meals, parent child-feeding behaviors, and child eating patterns and habits in Asian and Hispanic families

Creator:: Thomas, Julie E.
Abstract:: Acculturation, defined as the process of adopting the behaviors and beliefs of the dominant host culture, is often associated with dietary change and negative health outcomes, such as increased risk for obesity and diet-related diseases. The large and rising immigrant population in the U.S. necessitates a better understanding of the...

Ecophenology and Control of European Frogbit in a Hybrid Cattail Marsh of the St. Marys River, Michigan

Creator:: Wellons, Kathryn C.
Abstract:: Great Lakes coastal wetland communities are threatened by the impacts of invasive plants on ecosystem function and biodiversity. What allows invasive plants to become dominant in invaded communities can be hard to define and context-dependent. Traits associated with invasion success in wetland systems – rapid vegetative growth, competitive superiority in...

An investigation of the relationship between fabric grain orientation and pattern grading

Creator:: Vong, Ann Louise
Abstract:: Pattern grading is a method of creating multiple sizes of a garment style. Grading to extreme sizes is not recommended since the design and drape of the garment can be distorted. Researchers suggest that customized fit is a solution for creating sizes in a garment style. However, manufacturers continue to...

Whose Right is Right? Searching for a Common “Right” for Promoting Trust and Water-Related Data Exchange in Central Asia

Creator:: Sharipova, Botagoz
Abstract:: According to a number of scholars in transboundary water management, mistrust is considered to be one of the main obstacles to cooperation, especially for the exchange of hydrological data and information between newly-independent riparian states. The research presented here is focused on identifying the ways in which trust and mistrust...

Possible Autocrine/Paracrine Action of Progesterone in the Ovine Corpus Luteum

Creator:: Smallman, Mary A.
Abstract:: The objective of the present research was to determine, by use of the progesterone receptor antagonist RU-486, whether progesterone by autocrine/paracrine action suppresses phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis, and thus, the production of prostaglandin F2a during the midluteal phase of the estrous cycle in ewes. Two experiments were performed. Experiment 1 consisted of...

Saving Darlingtonia: Pumping, Pollution, Public Participation, and Perceived Impacts to a Carnivorous Pitcher Plant: Darlingtonia State Natural Site, Florence, Oregon

Creator:: Grandy, Trevor J.
Abstract:: Oregon’s coast draws millions of visitors every year to witness the natural wonders of one the world’s most vibrant and publicly accessible areas where mountain forests meet sandy beaches and the sea. Communities along the Oregon coast are restricted to narrow stretches of developable land overlying sand deposits between the...

Will we need to change the rules : assessing the implications of climate change for dam operations in Oregon's McKenzie River Basin

Creator:: Danner, Allison G.
Abstract:: Dams and reservoirs are important components of water resource management systems, but their operational sensitivity to streamflow variability may make them vulnerable to climate change. Climate change is likely to affect the magnitude and timing of streamflow, motivating the assessment of potential impacts on dams and reservoirs. Here I examine...

Diversity, Generalization, and Specialization in Plant-Pollinator Networks of Montane Meadows, Western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Helderop, Edward
Abstract:: Despite the importance of plant-pollinator interactions for ecological communities, few long-term observational studies have been conducted of plant-pollinator networks. Using four years of plant-pollinator interaction data from 18 meadows in the Willamette National Forest, Oregon, this thesis examined how meadow size, the amount of nearby meadow habitat, weather, degree days,...

Nutrient management of blackberry cultivars grown in organic production systems

Creator:: Fernandez-Salvador, Javier A.
Abstract:: The impact of fertilizer source and cultivar on growth, fruit quality, and yield was evaluated in organic blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus Watson) from 2011-2013 in three studies. In all studies, plants were drip irrigated, and weeds were managed using a woven polypropylene, permeable landscape fabric (weed mat). At a...
