  • A study on the oxidation of sulfides in estuarine waters

    Creator:
    Korpalski, Thomas Paul
    Abstract:
    Waters of various salinities were secured from the Umpqua estuary, the Umpqua River, and the open ocean near the mouth of the estuary. The rate of oxidation of sulfides in these various waters was investigated to assess the potential longevity of free sulfides in estuarine waters. The rate of disappearance...

  • Transport and adsorption of proteinanceous particles during flow through porous media

    Creator:
    Yamamoto, Tokuo
    Abstract:
    This is a fundamental study of the mechanism of protein particle removal during flow through sandy soil. Mathematical models for diffusion-adsorption and diffusion-convection-adsorption processes were developed and compared with experimental data. An attempt was made to calculate the distance over which the adsorption forces act. The differential equation for the...

  • System design for Dungeness crab processing

    Creator:
    Adams, Burton Warren
    Abstract:
    Dungeness crab is an important fishery on the Pacific Coast. The processing subsystem of the fishery is hampered by a variety of problems that have acted to impede technological innovations that could improve efficiency and sanitation in seafood plants. This paper provides background for problems encountered by the processors, discusses...

  • The effect of selected insecticides upon biochemical oxidation

    Creator:
    Norris, Francis Warren, Jr.
    Abstract:
    A study to determine the effect of certain synthetic organic insecticides on the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) Test was performed. BOD tests on a standard glucose-glutamic acid substrate were conducted while in the presence of dieldrin, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), or diazinon. From the BOD data, the following parameters were obtained: 1....

  • The static and dynamic analysis of discretely represented moorings and cables by numerical means

    Creator:
    Dominguez, Richard Frank
    Abstract:
    Computer oriented techniques and procedures are presented for the analysis of single and multiple cable systems. Application is made to a two-point mooring system influenced by surface and subsurface hydrodynamic loading. The effects of the various parameters are presented and the numerical method is compared to exact solutions obtained from...

  • Economic comparisons of different highway networks in a given region

    Creator:
    Ergün, Tevfik
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an economic comparison of three different highway networks which serve an area of 64 miles by 83 miles in size. Each network is designed to carry the same traffic between any two towns but is different in total length. Costs of right of way, excavation, pavement and...

  • Evaluation of Stereoscopic Camera Systems for Non-Intrusive Spatial Free Surface Measurement in Coastal Research Laboratories

    Creator:
    O'Day, Christopher S.
    Abstract:
    Physical modelling is instrumental to the progression of coastal engineering research and our understanding of the offshore and nearshore environments. Scaled models are designed and built to be tested in coastal research laboratories, where a wave basin or flume generates the desired wave conditions for experimentation. The surrounding hydrodynamics of...

  • Air photo analysis of waste dispersion from ocean outfalls

    Creator:
    James, Wesley Pierce
    Abstract:
    Aerial photography provides a method of analyzing dispersion of wastes that are discharged into the ocean. This method is more comprehensive than conventional boat sampling in dispersion studies. The photographic technique permits waste concentrations to be measured throughout the plume in one instant; thereby allowing the diffusion analysis to be...

  • Development of Authentic Engineering Curriculum through Collaborative Development: Research on Development and Adoption

    Creator:
    Cross, Matthew J.
    Abstract:
    Background: Studies indicate that problems utilized in traditional undergraduate engineering education do not adequately prepare students for the workforce. Calls to implement authentic, ill-structured problems into upper level engineering experiences may address this issue but adopting authentic engineering problems without considering barriers to adoption of faculty has not been fully...
