The objective of this project was to determine the limitations of the distillation equipment available and to design suitable experiments for chemical engineering students with these limitations in mind. This paper, then, serves as an operating manual and reference guide to the use of the glass distillation equipment and the...
Facility location studies involve the selection of a preferred
course of action from an array of multiattributed alternatives. The
factors affecting this selection are defined in both quantifiable and
qualifiable terms. The former comprises primarily monetary or operational
data, and the latter consists of nonmonetary and environmental
parameters; where the...
The Late Spring Secondary Precipitation Maximum in the
Interior Pacific Northwest results from a complex system of climatic
controls. The Secondary Maximum is most strongly developed over the
high plateau of Oregon immediately in the lee of the Cascade
Mountains. Local topographic
organization exerts strong control
over the magnitude and...
This study was designed to assess the effects of approval seeking motivation and social cost upon conformity to group norms which were inconsistent with personal values. Utilizing the Asch conformity paradigm, 321 subjects were exposed to a group opinion which was contradictory to one of their personal values. The results...
This investigation was designed to determine whether a remediation
program concurrent to enrollment in the Calculus could be used
to reveal and remedy student deficiencies involving pre-calculus topics,
promoting a greater degree of success in the Calculus. The instructional
model for the program that was investigated consisted of pretesting
the...

The Corps of Engineers is in a position to dominate the formulation
and implementation of public policy at a given local level. The
position is based on the Corps' capability to influence the decision-making
process through the exercise of force by means of eminent
domain procedures, the assumption and demonstration...
Kinetics of cell division in the intestinal epithelial proliferative cells (cell nests) of the rough-skinned newt, Taricha granulosa, were studied using tritiated thymidine autoradiography and the mitotic arresting properties of colcemid. Percent labeled mitoses (PLM) curves were drawn from the autoradiographic data from two separate experiments in which the newts...
The Farm Enterprise Committee of the Confederated Tribes of
the Umatilla Indian Reservation requested that an evaluation be made
of the Reservation land resource for the purpose of acquisition by the
Tribe as a part of a study of the feasibility of an expanded farm
enterprise. The Committee's primary goal...
The degree to which camping is related to selected characteristics of river terraces along the Rogue Waterway, Oregon has been analyzed. Previous attempts to formulate models relating campsite choice to characteristics of the natural environment focused on camping parties engaged in auto-camping and the aggregate population behavior rather than on...
