International Engineering Interns in their Own Words: Past Interns Share their Stories and their Wisdom with the Future

Creator:: Van Bossuyt, Douglas
Abstract:: Students participating in international engineering internships are still relatively rare. It is commonly held that more engineering students would choose to intern abroad if there were role models available, as there are in other disciplines. Profiles of past students, participants, and Alumni serve as role models to perspective students allows...

The Evolution: Electric Vehicles and the End of Oil Addiction

Creator:: Donahue, Cory
Abstract:: The world is currently using an unsustainable system of meeting its transportation needs with oil. This system is taking a toll on the world environment and on global politics. The physical availability of oil is the system’s most immediate problem and will most likely bring about a transition away from...

Direct Numerical Simulation of a Flat Wing with a Movable Front Flap at High Angles of Attack and Low Reynolds Numbers

Creator:: Drost, Kevin J.
Abstract:: Low Reynolds number airfoils have become of interest recently for applications on Micro-air Vehicles (MAVs). Airfoils at low Reynolds numbers and high angles of attack are known to be unstable due to low lift to drag ratios. This study investigates the effect of a movable leading edge flap on the...
Resource Type:: Honors College Thesis
Full Text:: no flap case. Cases with a moving front flap were run at 1, 3, and 5 Hz. The flapping motion caused

Rope Selection for Rope Drive Transmissions Used in Robotic Manipulation

Creator:: Summers, Michael P.
Abstract:: Wire and fiber ropes used in rigorous CBOS (cyclic bend over sheave) applications were investigated. Small diameter stainless steel, tungsten, and Vectran® ropes were tested over small sheaves at high loads and cycle speeds. Sheaves were made with Al6061-T6511 and Al7075-T651 and were coated with 0.002” hard coat anodize; some...

The Art and Craft of John Williams

Creator:: Lincoln, Danae A.
Abstract:: The intent of this paper is to bring more attention to the mastery involved with film composition as an art form. The research focuses specifically on the life, style, influences, and works of John Williams as a conductor, film composer, and composer. It addresses his biography, filmography, and working relationships,...

Assessment of the LSAMP Program at Oregon State University

Creator:: Duvall, Andrew Kenichi
Abstract:: The population of minority groups is on the rise in the US, yet still minorities are not proportionally represented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Of these minorities there are 4 races/ethnicities that are vastly under represented: Blacks, Hispanics, American Indians/Native Alaskans, and Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders. For the US to...

Describing Tsunami Inundation and Debris Motion using Optical Measurement Methods in a Large-Scale Wave Basin

Creator:: Rueben, Matthew Robert
Abstract:: This thesis consists of two papers in manuscript format. The first paper presents optical measurements of tsunami inundation through an urban waterfront in a laboratory wave basin. The physical model was constructed at 1:50 scale and was an idealization of the town of Seaside, Oregon. The paper presents an analysis...

Full Text:: on a raised flat section of basin floor with no still water on the raised section. Debris movement

Dashboard Effectiveness is More Complex than Key Performance Indicators: Feedback mechanisms are the foundation of dashboard success

Creator:: Beeks, Kameron P.
Abstract:: This thesis serves as a literature review of dashboards that calls for further research in the area of Feedback Mechanisms (FMs). A dashboard, for the purposes of this paper is a display used to provide performance feedback to a user. An FM is the mechanism used in a dashboard to...

Development of a remotely piloted aircraft for the Design/Build/Fly competition as a capstone engineering design project

Creator:: Wilcox, Joshua R.
Abstract:: The Design/Build/Fly competition (DBF) is an annual aerospace engineering competition hosted by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). Oregon State University's AIAA chapter competed for the first time at DBF in 2013 and finished in the top 25% which is a respectable finish for a first year team....

The Design, Manufacturing, and Testing of the 2014 Side-Pods for the Global Formula Racing Vehicle

Creator:: Volk, Austin R.
Abstract:: For many years, engine overhearing has been the major cause for vehicle breakdowns and engine malfunctions for most teams in Endurance events at Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (FSAE) Series competitions. Additionally, with a growing importance of aerodynamics to the overall success of the Global Formula Racing at these events,...
