“If I Were Your Mirror” – A Reflection on Austrian History Through Elisabeth das Musical

Creator:: Richardson, Carolyn N.
Abstract:: This project examines the portrayal of the life and times of Kaiserin Elisabeth von Österreich (Empress Elisabeth of Austria) in the popular Austrian musical "Elisabeth das Musical" (Elisabeth the Musical), written by Michael Kunze and Sylvester Levay. "Elisabeth" was first performed in Vienna in 1992 and has since become the...

A comparison of experimental mode I analysis methods for the interlaminar fracture toughness characterization of graphite/epoxy composite materials

Creator:: Keary, Paul Edward
Abstract:: Three approaches for evaluating mode I interlaminar strain energy release rates in graphite/epoxy composites were compared using experimental data from double cantilever beam specimens. Expressions for evaluating strain energy release rates were arrived at based on assumptions regarding specimen geometry and material behavior. The calculations included the direct method of...

A Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation of Hemolysis Potential in a Microfluidic Hemoperfusion Device Designed for Use in Sepsis Treatment

Creator:: Myers, Karl N.
Abstract:: The potential of red blood cell (RBC) and platelet damage was studied for a novel microfluidic hemoperfusion device currently in development at Oregon State University for use in treating sepsis. COMSOL 4.4's computational fluid dynamics (CFD) module was used to examine shear rate profiles in laminar, Newtonian blood flow throughout...

A Computational Framework for Resilience-Informed Design

Creator:: Hulse, Daniel E.
Abstract:: It is desirable for complex engineered systems to perform missions efficiently and economically, even when these missions' complex, variable, long-term operational profiles make it likely for hazards to arise. It is thus important to design these systems to be resilient so that they will actively prevent and recover from hazards...

A computer imaging method for fluid motion studies in metal casting

Creator:: Poland, John H.
Abstract:: Significant reductions in the number of defects in parts produced by investment casting can be obtained by improving the flow of the molten metal during pouring. Studies have been done at Oregon State University with simulated casting techniques to determine optimal mold configurations. Better mold layouts have been shown to...

A determination of an exhaust hydrocarbon reactivity index for a vehicle powered by gasoline and liquefied natural gas

Creator:: Rossman, David Robert
Abstract:: Past research has shown that automobile exhaust is composed of a mixture of many different hydrocarbons and that some of these hydrocarbons contribute more to the smog problem than others. Natural gas has been proposed as an alternative to gasoline as a motor fuel, and it was desired to confirm...

A framework for assessing and improving the resilience of complex engineered systems during the early design process

Creator:: Mehrpouyan, Hoda
Abstract:: As modern systems continue to increase in size and complexity, they pose significant safety and risk management challenges. System engineers and much of the government research efforts are focused on understanding the attributes and characteristics that emerge from the interactions of components and subsystems. As a result, the objective of...

A framework to model reliability and failures in complex systems during the early engineering design process

Creator:: O'Halloran, Bryan M.
Abstract:: An open area of research in complex systems is to move reliability and failure assessments earlier in the engineering design process. When compared to later design, early decisions are cost effective and have a large impact on the system. Standard methods are limited by the availability of data and often...

A Free Running Lubrication Comparison of Commonly Used Bar and Chain Oil

Creator:: Orawiec, Alexander
Abstract:: Chain saws are a common tool used by large logging corporations and family homesteads to manage forests, limb trees and buck lumber. A significant cost of operation is the continuous required supply of bar and chain oil. Consumers and logging corporations desire a lubricant with a high performance to cost...
