The Function-Human Error Design Method (FHEDM)

Creator:: Soria Zurita, Nicolás F.
Abstract:: This research presents a methodology to identify and analyze human-system interactions, and their potential failure modes using a functional decomposition approach during the early system design stage. The fundamental research contribution of this work is the development of a framework to identify associations between physical user-product interactions, generic human errors...

Transient nonlinear deformations of viscoelastic membranes

Creator:: Jenkins, Christopher H. M.
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Lift Enhancement of Pliant Wings Through Bio-Mimicry

Creator:: Osterberg, Nathaniel Brent
Abstract:: Flexible aerodynamic surfaces have been shown to favorably influence flight characteristics at low Reynolds numbers by increasing lift, angle of attack at stall, and resistance to perturbation. The objective of the research presented within this thesis is to investigate the influence of two aspects of flight observed in biological flyers,...

Investigation of the stress distribution in chain links

Creator:: Christensen, Harvey Devon
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Pttorn of a Chain Link, P = 300 oun, R 1.0, t = 0.40, IR = 1.EC, R/c = 2.27, (3I/2flc)0 = 0.277, (SI

A design framework for identifying automation opportunities

Creator:: Nagel, Robert Lewis, 1982-
Abstract:: Since the Industrial Revolution, automated systems have increasingly become a part of everyday life. Automated systems range in scale and scope from simple assists to complete robotic replacements. Inexpensive integrated circuits, sensors and microprocessors have allowed automated systems to become smaller, cheaper and more prevalent. Identifying appropriate opportunities for automation,...

Creep studies on Pheasant, Narcissus and Chukar aluminum conductors

Creator:: Patton, John Dennis
Abstract:: This thesis is an engineering report on the creep behavior of power transmission line conductors. Laboratory creep test results are reported for Pheasant, Narcissus and Chukar conductors. The report follows a standard nomenclature and format suggested by the International Study Committee No. 6 of Conference Internationale des Grands Reseaux Electriques...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: - aluminum conductors are fabricated from strands of EC grade aluminum, hard drawn to ASTM specification

Characterization of expert solutions to inform instruction and assessment in an industrially situated process development task

Creator:: Sherrett, Ben U.
Abstract:: What constitutes a quality solution to an authentic task from industry? This study seeks to address this question through the examination of two expert solutions to an authentic engineering task used in the Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering curriculum at Oregon State University. The two solutions were generated by two...

Comparison of European and American heavy machinery design, manufacturing, and economics influencing licensing agreements

Creator:: Gayer, George Frederick William
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Experimental studies of heat transfer with an array of horizontal tubes immersed in a high-temerature fluidized bed

Creator:: Goshayeshi, Ali
Abstract:: An experimental study is described in which time-average local heat transfer coefficients were obtained for arrays of horizontal tubes immersed in a hot fluidized bed. Spatial-averaged heat transfer coefficients, computed from local values, are also reported. Refractory particles with surface mean diameters of 2.14 mm and 3.23 mm were fluidized...
