Melee at the Edge of Empire: The Manifestation of the Reservation System in Southwest and Western Oregon 1850-1875

Creator:: Alves, Richard W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to explain why the reservation system manifested so disappointingly for the Native American groups of Southwest Oregon. It seeks to characterize the struggle that raged in Southwest Oregon from 1850 to 1856 between three main groups there: indigenous peoples, white squatters and miners, and...

Genres at Play : History, Tragedy, and Comedy in Shakespeare's Richard II

Creator:: Wiley, Marie
Abstract:: This thesis examines a range of generic influences in William Shakespeare's Richard II. By exploring the play's references to conflicting interpretations of history from different generic perspectives, I hope to advance a more nuanced reading of the play's dynamic staging of history. In Chapter One, I suggest that Richard II...

Single- and multi-functional arrayed microchannel fluidic devices

Creator:: Fisher, Luke W.
Abstract:: Novel fluidic devices that utilize an array of microchannels to achieve their designed purpose are discussed. Examples of devices include: fuel reforming using Microreactors, chip cooling using microchannel heat sinks, and microchannel devices used for biological applications. The devices that have directly contributed to this research include: a microchannel water...

Integrated dual cycle energy recovery using thermoelectric conversion and an organic Rankine bottoming cycle

Creator:: Miller, Erik W.
Abstract:: Hot engine exhaust and industrial process exhaust represents a resource that is often rejected to the environment without further utilization. This resource is prevalent in the transportation and industrial process sectors, but stationary engine-generator systems also typically do not utilize this resource. Engine exhaust is considered high grade heat and...

Water Efficiency for Urban Landscapes in Semi-Arid Environments

Creator:: Martinson, Richard W.
Abstract:: Urban landscape water use is increasingly a focus of water conservation efforts. This is especially true in the arid and semi-arid regions of the western United States where increased demand, environmental concerns, and extended periods of drought have created chronic water shortages. However, until recently, little attention has been paid...

Design, Construction, and Evaluation of a Miniature Swing

Creator:: Smith, Matthew
Abstract:: A swing arm compressor was designed, built, and tested as an undergraduate senior design project for Dr. Richard Peterson. The system developed, while not functioning entirely as desired, gave some initial data and a good base of knowledge for a second iteration of the project. This thesis describes in detail...

Crystal Records of the Origin, Evolution, and Thermal Histories of Magmas

Creator:: Bradshaw, Richard W., 1985-
Abstract:: In volcanic systems, magma is generally stored in the shallow crust prior to eruption. The conditions of this storage directly impact whether the magma eventually erupts, or crystallizes within the crust to form a pluton. In this dissertation I present four studies that investigate the storage conditions of a number...

Design and performance of a small scale waste heat recovery unit

Creator:: Ward, Christopher
Abstract:: A microchannel heat exchanger was designed for diesel waste heat recovery and its performance was evaluated. The 21x15x8 cm unit was constructed from diffusion brazed stainless steel lamina and weighed 11 kg. Operating from a 13.4 kW generator with an exhaust temperature of 500 °C the unit delivered 11.1 kW...

Modeling and optimization of a combined cycle Stirling-ORC system and design of an integrated microchannel Stirling heat rejector

Creator:: Ingram-Goble, Robbie
Abstract:: The performance of a combined Stirling-ORC power cycle is evaluated, and an integrated microchannel heat exchanger is designed as an annular cold-side heat rejector for a free piston Stirling engine. Reasonable designs for a combined cycle can increased power output efficiency by 3 - 9% compared to that of a...

The geometric characterization and thermal performance of a microchannel heat exchanger for diesel engine waste heat recovery

Creator:: Yih, James S.
Abstract:: Rising energy demands and the continual push to find more energy efficient technologies have been the impetus for the investigation of waste heat recovery techniques. Diesel engine exhaust heat utilization has the potential to significantly reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and reduce the release of greenhouse gases, because diesel...
