  • Laboratory investigation of the mechanics of raveling soils

    Creator:
    Saunders, George P.
    Abstract:
    Oregon's forestry industry has and will continue to be a vital component of Oregon's economy, with twenty-two percent of Oregon's 1986 gross state product and thirty-nine percent of Oregon's 1986 gross manufacturing product related the forestry goods. An integral component to proper management of Oregon's forestry lands is Sustaining the...

  • Inhibition, kinetic and modeling studies of acetylene and 1-chloro-1-fluoroethene on reductive dechlorination of TCE and vinyl chloride

    Creator:
    Pon, George
    Abstract:
    Laboratory and modeling studies were performed with a mixed-anaerobic-culture obtained from the Evanite site in Corvallis, Oregon. The culture completely transforms trichloroethene (TCE) to cis-dichloroethene (c-DCE), vinyl chloride (VC), and finally to ethene. Acetylene inhibition studies were used to examine the culture's microbial activities. Kinetic studies determined the half-saturated constant...

  • The use of polymers for better settling in domestic waste treatment systems

    Creator:
    Houck, George Campbell
    Abstract:
    The author presents a "state of the art" of the use of polymers for better settling in domestic waste treatment and evaluates the published research in the field. Polymers have only recently been used to obtain better settling in domestic waste treatment. Due to the number of polymer types available...

  • Critical buckling load for round tapered columns with variable end fixity

    Creator:
    Dotson, George Franklin
    Abstract:
    The critical buckling load for round tapered columns with variable end fixity is presented. The theory used is presented together with the general solution for the resulting differential equation. This general solution is solved by use of a computer. The computer program written specifically for this thesis, the flow chart,...

  • Design criteria for waste water lagoons in Oregon

    Creator:
    Putnicki, George John
    Abstract:
    Waste water lagoons have been used as a satisfactory means of treating domestic and certain industrial wastes in many parts of the country. Many of the parameters that govern the applicability of this type of treatment process are climatic in nature, and critical evaluation of local climatic conditions, as well...

  • Displacement response of transmission line conductors during random wind gusts

    Creator:
    Cameron, George Richardson
    Abstract:
    The mean square displacement response of a point on a transmission line conductor that is subjected to wind gust generated lift forces is computed. The wind gust velocity and wind gust generated lift forces are treated as random processes in both time and space. A lift force, that is velocity...

  • An anaerobic microcosm study of TCE transformation by microbes stimulated from the Gilbert-Mosley site, Wichita, Kansas

    Creator:
    Pon, George
    Abstract:
    A mix-culture of methanogenic and sulfate-reducing bacteria was capable of degrading trichloroethylene (TCE) to dichloroethylene (DCE). The culture was incubated under anaerobic conditions within a soil sample taken from Gilbert-Mosley site, Wichita, Kansas. To stimulate the growth of indigenous bacteria, a carbon and energy source was added in this microcosm...

  • Engineering properties of Southeast Alaskan forest soils

    Creator:
    Filz, George
    Abstract:
    The strength of both undisturbed and compacted soils from 10 sites in the slide-prone Tongass National Forest in SE Alaska were studied. Index property tests were also conducted on disturbed samples. The index tests included natural water content, Atterberg Limits, specific gravity of solids, grain size distribution, and moisture-density relationship....

  • Tidal range changes in the Delaware Bay : past conditions and future scenarios

    Creator:
    Hall, George F.
    Abstract:
    Throughout the Holocene, appreciable changes in bathymetry are hypothesized to have resulted in large changes to tidal datums in coastal and estuarine areas. An understanding of tidal change is an important contribution to the knowledge of relative historical sea-level change and future coastal planning. To test this hypothesis, the Advanced...
