Performance of a thermally activated cooling system and design of a microchannel heat recovery unit

Creator:: Seward, Ryan
Abstract:: The performance of a combined vapor-compression cycle/ORC is evaluated using waste-heat from a diesel generator. A flat plate microchannel heat exchanger is employed to provide energy exchange between the diesel exhaust stream and an oil loop, which provides energy to a boiler. This study finds an increased diesel duty corresponds...

Integrating Climate Change Adaptation into the Management of Alaska’s Kenai River Watershed

Creator:: Reilly, Melissa S.
Abstract:: The impacts of climate change are being observed worldwide. However, some regions and context specific situations make particular areas more vulnerable to the impacts than others. Alaska’s Kenai River Watershed (KRW) is on the front lines of climate change and may be especially vulnerable to the impacts due to distinct...

The effect of motivational orientation on academic achievement and persistence of rural community college students: A test of a motivational model from a self-determination theory perspective

Creator:: Hoppe, Stephanie E.
Abstract:: Understanding the relationship between motivation, academic achievement, and persistence may help higher education administrators develop plans for increasing student engagement and student success. Prior research on higher education indicated connections between motivation, academic achievement, and persistence, but there has been limited research that relates these concepts to the rural community...

Effect of Nanophyetus salmincola and Bacterial Co-Infection on Mortality of Juvenile Chinook Salmon

Creator:: Roon, Sean R., Alexander, Julie D., Jacobson, Kym C., and Bartholomew, Jerri L.
Abstract:: The freshwater trematode Nanophyetus salmincola has been demonstrated to impair salmonid immune function and resistance to the marine pathogen Vibrio anguillarum, potentially resulting in ocean mortality. We examined whether infection by the parasite N. salmincola similarly increases mortality of juvenile Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha when they are exposed to the...

Lichen Studies of Tropical Dry Forest: A Systematic and Ecological Approach

Creator:: Miranda-González, Ricardo
Abstract:: In recent years, our ecological knowledge of tropical dry forests has increased dramatically. However, whole components of the ecosystem, like lichenized fungi, remain mostly unknown. Crustose lichens in these forests are so abundant, that they are responsible for the characteristic appearance of a “white bark forest” during the dry season....

Quantitative evaluation of left atrial volume and function by one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional echocardiography in a population of normal dogs

Creator:: LeBlanc, Nicole L.
Abstract:: Linear M-mode (1D) and later 2-dimensional (2D) measurements of the left atrium (LA) are commonly been used to assess LA size in veterinary studies despite the fact that studies in human subjects have shown that LA volume (LAV) more accurately reflects LA size than linear measurements due to the complex...

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...

Distribution and coinfection of microparasites and macroparasites in juvenile salmonids in three upper Willamette River tributaries

Creator:: Roon, Sean Robert
Abstract:: Wild fish populations are typically infected with a variety of micro- and macroparasites that may affect fitness and survival, however, there is little published information on parasite distribution in wild juvenile salmonids in three upper tributaries of the Willamette River, OR. The objectives of this survey were to document (1)...

Efficacy of electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) water combined with UV-C light or gas exchange on sanitization of Jalapeno pepper using Serratia marcesens as surrogate for Salmonella

Creator:: Ekundayo, Olufunmilayo R.
Abstract:: Jalapeño peppers are usually consumed raw and fresh with minimal processing. They contain antioxidants and bioactive compounds which are of human health benefits. There have been an increasing number of reports of foodborne outbreaks attributed to inaccessibility of sanitizers to Salmonella , E.coli and Listeria monocytogenes when embedded in fruit...
