A linkage finite element for nailed composite wood I-Beams and T-Beams

Creator:: Lee, Chyuan-shen
Abstract:: With current nonlinear analysis computer capabilities, this study was conducted to develop a linkage element that permits analyses of wood composite structures taking into account possible slip in the nailed joints. The finite elements chosen to represent the wood stud, plywood, gypsum and nails are described. The method as applied...

A composite-beam finite element for seismic analysis of wood-framed buildings

Creator:: Lee, Chyuan-shen
Abstract:: A computer program called SAPWOOD which possesses the capability of performing linear or nonlinear, static or dynamic response including seismic excitation for wood-framed buildings with semirigid connection systems is presented in this study. Program SAPWOOD is a modification of the program NONSAP by adding new elements such as a linkage...

Startup and performance of a gas-permeable-membrane-supported (GPMS) biofilm system using a mixed culture of methylotrophs to degrade methylene chloride, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride

Creator:: Ely, Roger L.
Abstract:: The methane monooxygenase (MMO) enzyme, used by methylotrophs to oxidize methane, has been shown to possess quite broad substrate specificity, being able to oxidize many organic compounds including n-alkanes, n-alkenes, ethers, and aromatic, alicyclic, and heterocyclic compounds. In this research, it was sought to determine whether a gas-permeable-membrane-supported (GPMS) biofilm...

Interaction of water waves and deformable bodies

Creator:: Broderick, Laurie L.
Abstract:: A time-domain model was developed to predict the fluid/structure interaction of a three-dimensional deformable body in a fluid domain subject to long-crested finite amplitude waves. These nonlinear waves induce transient motion in the body. In turn, the interaction of the body with the waves modifies the wave field, causing additional...

Remote Sensing Tools for Evaluating Climate Change Impacts in Coastal Environments

Creator:: Herrmann, Joan F.
Abstract:: Climate change has pervasive impacts on Earth’s diverse ecosystems. Observed and projected effects that impact coastal environments pose unique challenges. Coastal regions provide numerous ecosystem services (e.g., fisheries, nursery habitats, erosion control, and water filtering and detoxification), house 40% of the US population, and contribute to 58% of the national...

Assimilation of Multi-Sensor Data into Numerical Hydrodynamic Models of Inland Water Bodies

Creator:: Javaheri, Amir
Abstract:: Numerical models are effective tools for simulating complex physical processes such as hydrodynamic and water quality processes in aquatic systems. The accuracy of the model is dependent on multiple model parameters and variables that need to be calibrated and regularly updated to reproduce changing aquatic conditions accurately. Multi-sensor water temperature...

Effects of Moisture Intrusion on the Performance of a Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) Angle Bracket Connection

Creator:: Bora, Shrenik S.
Abstract:: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is revolutionizing the use of wood in the construction sector of North America as a solution for walls and diaphragms in mid-rise or even high-rise timber structures on account of its environmental advantages, high strength-to-weight ratio, fire-safety performance, and propensity for prefabrication. However, considering the hygroscopic nature...

Initial performance assessment for implementation of hot mix asphalt containing recycled asphalt shingles in Oregon

Creator:: Samoo, Faisal Ahmed
Abstract:: This thesis documents the evaluation of the initial performance of pavement containing recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) in Oregon. The research was funded by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Federal Highway Administration and was conducted at Oregon State University. The key objectives of this thesis are to document...

Tsunami inundation : estimating damage and predicting flow properties

Creator:: Wiebe, Dane Michael
Abstract:: The 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Tohoku tsunami events have shown the destructive power of tsunami inundation to the constructed environment in addition to the tragic loss of life. A comparable event is expected for the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) which will impact the west coast of North America. Research...

Influence of silt size and content on static liquefaction potential of sand

Creator:: Monkul, M. Murat
Abstract:: Different specimen preparation methods such as moist tamping, dry funnel deposition, slurry deposition, dry air pluviation have been reported in the literature to investigate the undrained behavior of silty sands. Similarly, different means have been used to densify the soils prepared with such methods. However, the influence of the densification...
